Learning to invest - forex journal

If you have read my previous post you’re aware of what happened to US dollar. And without long speeches, I had 3 trades in one and 3 trades in another direction for the reasons brought out in my previous post. And as a result, I managed to get shut off by my stop losses in ALL of them. Thus my first tiny testing capital is so-said kaputt. No worries though, we'll continue ; ) So firstly, lets analyse what I did wrong, first the general things. Like I have mentioned before, I p... Continue reading

Testing time, Day 3

Thursday, November 30, 2006 / 07:45:04 / Platform reviews

I checked what had happend during my sleeping time and I noticed the similar chart on both EUR/USD and GBP/USD. See this – See the beginning of the chart, Aroon gives heads up for BUY, %R gives heads up for BUY, RSI doesn’t show anything. On another chart, chart 3 the EMA’s give heads up for BUY. This was followed by a sideways movement for 4 hours. Then Aroon was still in the positive side while RSI and %R would have given a sell signal. However, when you look at the candlesticks...

Testing time, Day 2 UPDATE

Wednesday, November 29, 2006 / 12:48:44 / Platform reviews

I wrote a post something like 4 pages, and then when I got to the end of it, I realized that this post really was a mess and instead, I’ll try to tell you about stuff in a bit shorter and simpler manner. Today I tried those 4 templates I brought out in my previous post, I used 15-min charts and 3 pairs – GBP/USD, EUR/USD and EUR/GBP. To shout out loud, I think EUR/GBP in most cases might be pretty useless pair to follow. 5 hours ago I thought that it would go up but...well, the th... Continue reading

Testing time, Day 2

Wednesday, November 29, 2006 / 03:39:23 / Platform reviews

Didn’t have time to update yesterday’s post so I’ll continue with this new one. I haven’t placed any trades yet but I have worked out 4 different chart templates with indicators on them to see if any of them work or could work after some changes. Template 1 This chart template uses 50-period and 14-period EMA’s for trends. Due to my observations yesterday I will use Aroon to set my entry points. I am not sure about stop loss and exit yet, but I hope to get them in place soon as... Continue reading

Testing time, Day 1

Tuesday, November 28, 2006 / 11:00:10 / Platform reviews

Okay, this is day one in my trading on my demo account. On that account I have currently $56. To follow the forex prices and to analyse the charts I will be using the free MetaTrader 4 software. All the charts available in this section will be generated with MetaTrader as well. During my trading I will try to keep in mine the intermarket analysis as well. Though, I think for starters it will be extremely difficult to keep in mind all the different things I should keep in mind. So don’t sue me if... Continue reading
