Forex trading robots are all the rage and you will find loads of them for sale online all promising you instant riches - the truth is 90% or more will lose you money. You can find ones that will make you profits but you must be careful - Here are some tips on getting a profitable one.

Below, you will see a warning that accompanies the vast majority of forex robots, as soon as you see it DON’T BUY IT! Read it and you will understand why.

“CFTC RULE 4.41 - Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since the trades have not been executed, the results may have under-or-over compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profit or losses similar to those shown”.

It’s pretty obvious you shouldn’t trust a trading system that has never been traded! Anyone and I mean anyone including my 9 year old niece can make money looking backwards the problem is you have to look forward.

You never see profitable track records that have broker account statements or are audited. The best I have seen was the personal bank statement of the vendor however, bet that’s not from trading that’s from selling systems!

So are there any good ones out there?

Yes there are but there not cheap. If you get one with a real time track record that’s reasonable expect to pay from $1,000 - $20,000 or more. Always make sure when you check a track record it’s independently audited and is at least 3 years long.

Even when you have done this you need to know how it works so you can follow it with confidence and discipline. You also must be comfortable with the draw down and how long it lasts for in terms of recovery time.

Another alternative - Get a FREE One!

We have written frequently on a great trading robot you can get for free called Richard Donchian’s 4 Week rule its simple to understand ( one rule), is based on timeless logic and you don’t even need a computer program to trade it.

Before you say it’s free and simple it won’t make money, look it up or read our other articles and remember - simple trading systems are best, as they are robust, in the face of brutal ever changing market conditions.

The above system has been the basis of many a successful forex trading system and trading legends such as Richard Dennis have used it, so if its good enough for him, its good enough for you and me!

So there you have it 3 options. You can buy a robot with a simulated track record and get wiped out, pay a bit more and get one with at least a real time track record, or get a free one you can adapt or use as it is. Try the latter option and you maybe glad you did.

In foreign currency exchange, sending on contracts allow the client to lock in an exchange rate with immediate effect. No immediate payment for the purchased currency is necessary until a future date. This procedure helps the client to be safe from the fluctuations due to foreign exchange transfer. Normally, the forward exchange rate is calculated using the current exchange rate and interest rates for the two currencies. The time or length of the contract also counts.

Forward contracts demand a deposit that allows the client to utilize the majority of their funds until the end of the forward contract when funds are exchanged. They also reduce Client’s exchange rate risk. This allows the client to be for certain of the cost of their purchased currency.

It’s not enough that my first internet experience with the EZ Webcash system went south, but now the Stealth Money Making System seems to have experienced a similar fate.

I had high hopes for this system and was making good cash. Not enough to retire, but enough to say “hey this internet thing works”. Then the other day, I decided to check my links on my ads and I was directed to a parked page for the system. It also mentions on the parked page that the website might be for sale. Following that link shows that it is.

I did however, get a great education from this Stealth System and will be putting what I learned towards my other internet ventures, one of which I have latched onto with both hands. I am not one to get down when something collapses. Especially when the system only cost $50 in the first place. I always have a backup plan in case my primary plan fails.

Keep in mind that internet marketing systems come and go. Remain flexible and keep searching for the one that makes financial sense and fits your lifestyle. Try to choose low investment systems that have a track record. I always check the copyright at the webpage to give me any idea of how long the program has been in place. Try to choose those programs that have been around for at least 2 years and offer training, free or almost free websites and lots of support. Make sure your choice for an internet venture has a one time investment and not any recurring charges.

Good luck in your internet ventures!

Trading the Forex market without knowing the meaning of Margin Call is the beginning of failure.The good news is that this article exposes all you need to know about this Margin Call.

Margin Call occurs when your broker notifies you that your deposits have fallen below the required minimum level because an open position has moved against you. Your positions could be partially or totally liquidated should the available margin in your account fall below a predetermined level or percentage.

You may not receive a Margin Call before your positions are liquidated or closed. Meaning all your trades would been return8ing only the balance you have left which no longer be able to open a position based on previously accepted leverage.

For Example: Let’s say you opened Forex account with $500.And you open 3 mini lots of EUR/USD with a margin requirement of $100. The amount you have opened the 3 mini lots EUR/USD which is now active in the trade and in the trade and is called Used Margin or Margin in trade.

Used Margin or Core Equity is the money available to open new positions or sustain trading losses.Since you started with $500, your Usable Margin is $500. But when you opened 3 mini lots, which requires a margin requirement of $300,your Usable Margin is now (Balance/EquityInitial Capital/Opening Margin Minus Used Margin/Amount in trade). If your losses exceed your Usable Margin of $200, you will get a Margin Call.

I believe this makes it clear now.And if you want to trade again with the remaining balance, you either put in more money for more leverage(more leverage is not advisable though) or better you start all over with micro lot sizes of between 0.01 and 0.09 (which is better for you anyway because that is where you should have started in the first instance).

The best expert advisors… your really do want that right? You should.
If you don’t know what you’re dealing with, finding the very best EAs of their kind is a difficult task, especially if they’re all based on different platforms… like on is a Mt4 Expert Advisor and then some other Forex EA is something else……bah, simply, it just gets confusing…

So what makes the difference between all of the different EAs and what separates one Forex Expert Advisor from the rest? What separates the best from the rest? (oh my god it rhymes!)
Well as I already said, they can be based on different platforms for example, and the most popular as of now would be the MetaTrader 4. But also different things like what currency pairs they’re working on, whether it’s USD/JPY pair, or EUR/USD or whatever.

What do you actually choose then? The high end $10,000 expert advisor, or the cheaper one for $150? Is the expensive EA worth all the money, or does the cheaper one handle the job just as well?As you can see, there’s a whole lot of questions people ask themselves when it comes to picking a good EA.

The simplest question of all then… “Which one do I pick?” - that seems to be the most common one, and it’s a good one too.

Me and my team have done a whole lot of research and we’ve concluded that the Expert Advisors that are based on the Mt4 platform are the best ones… but after that it gets a bit tougher. However we believe we have got it nailed down this time, and finally, we picked some rather unknown Forex EA as our top pick.

It’s called Forex Funnel.

Forex Funnel? - Yep. You can find out all about it, and the rest of our recommended choices, the ones we chose after reviewing dozens of them…

The methodology for predicting and trading these trends is simple and straightforward: monitor the economic calendar and trade the news.

Complicated Forex Trading Formulas and Technical Indicators

Tired of complicated, proprietary Forex trading formulas and the endless barrage of technical indicators no one seems to understand? You are certainly not alone. The Foreign Exchange Market, in its most basic form, is really quite simple. It doesn’t consist of magic wands, potions, or secret handshakes. You do not have to be an economist, political analyst, or mathematician to grasp it. There is no Holy Grail of Forex trading. There is, however, a better way. Thankfully, it is also the most basic, elemental form of trading on the Foreign Exchange. If a country’s economy is in a growth trend, the obvious conclusion is that its currency will grow in strength versus a country whose economy is holding steady or in decline. The methodology for predicting and trading these trends is simple and straightforward: monitor the economic calendar and trade the news.

Is Trading the News Risky Business?

While some will consider this too risky, the facts just do not support their fears. Certain news releases consistently produce 30 to 50 pip moves in a predictable direction. Knowing and following a solid strategy is essential to successful news trading in the Forex Market.

News Releases consistently move the market upon their release.

We are talking about news releases that come directly from government agencies and other research departments devoted to studying and monitoring economic trends. It is critical to know the various news releases and how they typically move the market. Not all releases are created equally. Some are very consistent and predictable. These A-list news releases provide rewarding trade opportunities, provided,

1. you know the expected number;

2. you know how much deviation is required to move the market enough to gain a profit;

3. you know how the market will react if a number comes out higher or lower than expected.

As simple as one, two, three… Knowing the three key factors listed above is not as difficult or mysterious as it may seem. Number one is taken care of in the related news releases. Number two can be ascertained, either through personal trial and error, or by learning from a verified market expert like Dustin Pass, whose extensive research and work in trading the news has made him a recognized authority. Number three is much less difficult a hurdle than it appears. When the numbers do not meet expectation, when they are higher or lower, they will affect each release in a particular way. In Part Two, we will share the A List and B List news releases, talk about their required deviations, and explain how variances in the numbers affect each.

My book selection this week is Cosmic Economics. You can always pick yourself up out of the dumps by picking up one of the Master Prophet E. Bernard Jordan’s books and — LIKE MAGIC — you will go to the exact page you need. I did that today, not because I was in the dumps, but because his books inspire me to get up and do something.

Cosmic Principle 54–There is nothing in the outer world that cannot be replaced. This principle falls under the 10th Chapter of the book: Lift Up Your Eyes

The Master Prophet rebuilds my faith in this chapter. He reminds me that there is nothing in the outside world, the outside of me, that can harm me. When I find myself the object of unfriendliness, inequality or lack of opportunities, I have to begin to realize that these are EXTERNAL CONDITIONS and are not the truth of me. I must release any thought of harm, lack or poverty because it acts as an entity of power over me if I behold it as a thought.

The Master Prophet further reminds me that when I learn to dismiss these thoughts they cannot defile, deprive or limit me in any way, shape or form. I am then remolding my consciousness of truth.

The clincher in this chapter is when he says, “Once you have learned to dismiss them, you will have agreed with your adversary”. WOW! This scripture now comes to life within me…(Matt 5:25) Agreeing means I would have given up resistance to the person, things, or circumstantial condition that was disturbing me. Any so-called “problem” is not “A” POWER and has “NO” POWER. So that lets me know that as “A” POWER (God in me) anything that has “NO” POWER should not even get my attention.

Jordan tells us that in the natural realm — power only speaks to power (Kings speak to kings, presidents speak to presidents…etc.) in the spiritual realm it is even more so.

I learned to be still, to be quiet, to not try to overcome or rise above situations. But instead, I will now take them into my consciousness of truth, remembering there is NO POWER outside of me and will therefore bring myself into atonement of my divine self. If I try “WIN” within MY own power instead of God’s power, I can count those so-called victories as dung because they were won by operating outside of God.

The Master Prophet is saying here that I can count that as a victory — yes — but, know that the defeated foe I just won over (as an outside job) will be back to battle me again. But by agreeing with my adversary quickly, by taking the situation within my consciousness and resolving “the matter”, it is at that place — in my mind — that there is peace that surpasses all understanding. (Phil 4:7) And profoundly, the Contemporary English version of this scripture states: Then, because you belong to Christ Jesus, God will bless you with peace that no one can completely understand. And this peace will control the way you think and feel. —ISN’T THAT AMAZING?

We learn here that:

1 - it is only then (after we dismiss outside thinking) that we ACTUALLY are recognized as BELONGING to Christ and…

2 - no one will be able to understand how you “take what you take” because “the matter” will not rattle you now…and finally

#3 - Peace will control the way you think and feel.

That reminds me of the scripture: When a man’s ways please the LORD, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him. (Prov 16:7 - KJV)

Does that mean the way a man can please the Lord is by the way he “THINKS”? And the way you think will have your adversary making peace with you because you agreed with him quickly? And now that Peace is doing all of your thinking, controlling the way you think and feel, you should not have any more so-called problems distracting you? YES-YES-YES.

So therefore, I will no longer fight any battles from outside of myself–they are fruitless and prove nothing. The man of sense puts his trust in visible (or matter) while the man of God puts his trust in those invisible means.

Trading penny stocks can be a very lucrative form of trading if certain guidelines are met. One of those guidelines is having the proper tools to evaluate and chose winning penny stocks. Charting software is an important component of a trading system and within the charting software there are various indicators that a person can use when considering a penny stock investment. This article will cover one of those indicators, Bollinger Bands.

Developed by John Bollinger, Bollinger Bands are an indicator that allows traders and investors to compare volatility and relative price levels over a designated time period, a relative high or low in the instrument being traded. Two important factors are derived from the Bollinger Bands which are bandwidth, a relative measure of the width of the bands from each other, and a measure of where the last price is in relation to the bands. Having evolved from the concept of trading bands, Bollinger Bands can be used to measure the low or high of the price relative to previous trades, indicated on the underlying chart.

Since their introduction, few indicators have helped traders as consistently as Bollinger Bands and the use of Bollinger Bands varies distinctly among traders. The use of Bollinger Bands is not confined strictly to stock traders, options traders often sell options when Bollinger Bands are far apart or buy options when the Bollinger Bands are close together, in both instances, expecting volatility to return back to the average volatility level for the stock or option.

Closing prices are the prices that are most often used to calculate Bollinger Bands. In addition to identifying volatility and relative price levels, Bollinger Bands can be combined with price action and other indicators to generate signals helping identify potential significant moves. By themselves, Bollinger Bands have two main functions which are to identify periods of low and high volatility as well as to identify time periods when prices are at unsustainable and extreme levels. Bollinger Bands do not give absolute buy and sell signals, and most traders agree that the bands indicate if price is at a relative high or low.

Many traders utilize Bollinger bands to determine the volatility of a stock movement and identify the time frame when the current trend of a simple moving average may be coming to an end. If the two Bollinger bands violently move apart and start moving in opposite directions, the stock has made a significant move. Of course this depends on what time frame the chart is being used. A one minute chart, for example, would not be considered an extreme move with Bollinger Bands. However, a 15 minute chart or daily chart with wide bands surrounding the candlestick would be considered a significant move. It should also be noted, when price is trading near the lower or upper Bollinger band line, there is a possibility that the current trend may be reversing. In other words, when price reaches these extremes they should be considered overbought and oversold.

Over the past twenty five years, traders have considered Bollinger Bands to be the most important and reliable tool for determining expected price action, with almost all trading software platforms including Bollinger bands as one of the primary indicators. Used in conjunction with other indicators, Bollinger Bands can be a powerful indicator to implement into a system designed for trading penny stocks.

Raising capital to start a new business may seem like a daunting task, but it need not be overwhelming if you follow a few basic business practices. If you have a viable idea that will net a return for your investors and prepare a compelling business plan the chances are good that you can find investors to join you.

Your first task is to create a business plan, sometimes known as a “business proposal” or “prospectus.” Your business plan needs to be very detailed and concise. You should include information about your educational background, experience and training in the area of business you are contemplating. Just like a resume for a job, include references and any other favorable personal qualities that you feel reinforce the reasons why an investor should trust in your ideas.

It can’t hurt to include any information you feel comfortable sharing with regard to your positive credit history. If you have records of various satisfied loans along with the payment history, that information could be helpful to prove your stability with regard to financial obligations.

If you are requesting financing for an existing business the rules are a bit different than a new business startup. The current owner should be able to provide you with profit and loss statements. If you are purchasing an online business, statistical information pertaining to traffic, number of units sold and paid advertising are definitely necessary. The purchase price of the business needs to be included along with detailed information about how you intend to service the debt as well as how the potential investor will benefit from your request.

If you are seeking investors for a new business, the information required increases. In addition to the information outlined above, you will need to include market research, projected costs and a detailed summary of how you intend to generate income. This information needs to be projected for a period of three to five years. It’s a good idea to project your expenses on the high side.

Have some idea of what you expect to pay your investor. The only reason someone is going to lend you money is if they can see decent profits in exchange for lending it to you. Your market research had best substantiate that your plan is viable and will provide them with sufficient return on investment to justify their involvement.

Before you begin your search for investors, it’s a good idea to have an attorney and/or accountant take a look at your plan. A good professional may suggest specific points that you may have overlooked.

Once your paperwork is in order, it’s time to start looking for investors. One place to begin your search might be friends or family. You might approach them singularly or in a group. Whatever method, you need to have a complete copy of your proposal carefully outlining your research and what they can expect in return for their assistance.

Read the classified pages of your local newspaper. Venture capitalists often advertise this way. Their rates are usually pretty high because they have a tendency to take on “risky” investments. A twist on this method might be to run your own ad either locally or nationally. If you select this method, explain the particulars and emphasize how much they can expect to receive for the load of their funds.

Use local business directories to find companies that specialize in “investment services.” You can approach a local bank, but try and find a bank that specializes in industrial or business type loans.

You might consider incorporating and selling stock in the company.

Another option might be a “money broker.” This can be risky. There are some legitimate brokers and others who operate on the shady side.

Be creative. If you believe in your idea, don’t be afraid to do what ever it takes to launch. There are plenty of ways to come up with the capital you need. Think outside the box. Whether you are looking for $300 or $300,000 the money is there you just need to dig for it.
