Have you been learning to trade for years and you cannot seem to make any progress regardless of the trading strategy you use? Unfortunately, learning to trade isn't as simple as learning a rule set or strategy and then you're suddenly profitable.

This video covers the 3 steps that you must take to improve your trading in 2020 and beyond. This starts with clearly detailing the trading strategy you're going to use. Having a trading plan isn't an option, it is a requirement if you want to become a successful trader.

The next step is journaling your trades. Journaling your trades allows you to capitalize on the third step which is the monthly review.

The cold hard truth is that there will never be a strategy, which once you learn the rules will magically make you a profitable trader. There is ALWAYS going to be a level of discretion and experience that is required.

Because of that, learning to trade profitably can better be described as a refining process. You make the plan, execute trades according to the plan, which allows you to journal those trades for monthly review.

Reviewing your trades monthly will allow you to see the true reason for your losses which is the first step to fixing the problem and working towards profitability.

You can become a profitable trader, but there is no easy path. Anything of true value in life will require a massive effort and sacrifice to achieve. If this was easy, everyone would do it. It's time to start trading like a professional and it starts with getting your trading plan in written form!

Description: Trading economic data is a huge killer for retail traders. Knowing when the news will follow through and when there will be a reversal leads to the inevitable blow-up.

The key to trading economic data is spotting where the traders are likely trapped. Knowing this provides a very high probability entry point and more importantly, a high reward/risk entry point.

Last Wednesday (July 25th, 2019) the EUR/USD provided a beautiful example of how we set up this type of trade. This video breaks down the following.

1.) Identify a high probability manipulation point.
2.) All the news to drive the market into the pre-determined level.
3.) Wait for the stop run to provide trade confirmation.

Last Wednesday we had a very nice stop run that occurred during the FOMC press conference. This presented an aggressive short (which I took and need to finish the video on) which is vital for predicting future price action.

With that aggressive of a sell-off after the stop run, the probability of continued follow through is very likely the next day. As such, I was looking for another short-term stop run to provide even more confidence in continued lower price.

During the European session, we had a very nice stop run of the Asian session highs. As we retested what I term as the 'failure point,' I took the short with a very tight stop loss of 10 pips.

This 10 pip stop loss produced a very nice reward to risk ratio as prices did break down further after one last false push towards the highs during the NY Session.

This video breaks down an EXACT 'framework' you can use each day to judge the short-term trend (3-5 days) which we term as 'Market Cycle.'

This 'Market Cycle' determines our directional bias for the day, allowing you to trade with the current directional momentum of the market.

Beyond that, you would begin to look for a manipulation point from which to look for the trade to actually trigger. You can learn more about that in the link below.

Once the manipulation point is reached you wait for a valid confirmation entry to confirm the trade which the next video linked below details.

Last weeks US GDP number presented a nice trade setup in the USD/JPY. Often the initial move created by the news spike is what I term as the 'sucker move.'

Because smart money needs buyers when they want to buy and sellers when they want to buy.

Therefore, as the retail market steps in and begins to chase the positive number up, Smart Money is more than happy to begin selling to them.

This video breaks down the basics around tracking and profiting from this short term market manipulation that often occurs around news.

Is your Position Sizing Keeping you from Becoming a Profitable Trader?

One of the most important aspects of becoming a profitable trader is position sizing. While learning to trade, however, you don't want to use the same risk as a profitable trader might. In other words, just because a particular risk might be 'correct' for one trader, doesn't mean it's going to be right for you.

The key is position sizing is something that people often leave out of the equation, that is the trader's skill level.

It is my firm belief that everyone who is currently learning to trade forex should start with 1 micro per trade until they have at least a few months of profitable returns.

If you cannot make money while using 1 micro per trade, then you will not be able to turn a profit using 1 mini, or 1 standard. The larger size you trade, the more challenging trading becomes. You learn to deal with the added stress with time, experience, as well as a profitable track record you can mental lean on.

The bottom line is trading larger size is much more difficult than trading a smaller position if you lack the experience to do so. Therefore, stick with 1 micro until you're profitable and only then would I look to increase the size being traded.

What is the proper position sizing once someone you're profitable?

I like to keep things simple, so I recommend a basic 2% risk per trade or SMALLER. The only caveat I would add is that I do not adjust the position size down after a loss, and I would only adjust the size being traded at the end of the month. This principle requires some explaining so be sure to watch the video for the most important aspect of this process which revolves around your trading accounts 'high water mark.'

Have you ever felt like you enter the market at EXACTLY the wrong time!?!? If you're like most, the answer is yes!

30 Day's to Better Trading - #1 Convert Your Dreams to Math

The 30 Day's to better trading series starts off going over what it means to, "convert your dreams to math." By knowing exactly how you're going to achieve your goal of becoming a successful forex trader you're much more likely to do so as has been scientifically proven. The bottom line is having an exact goal and then doing the math on how you achieve it will greatly improve your chances of success.

I then move on to something no one likes to talk about...what are you willing to give up to achieve your goal? Many people will say anything, but then they watch 4 hours of television a night. You also have to be willing to do an honest self-examination. Maybe YOU need to change? Maybe you have a bad habit that is holding you back from success?

Another area in which you might have to give something up is in the area of relationships. I had COUNTLESS people tell me to give up learning to trade. I had countless people to tell me to go get a real job. Those people either started supporting me, and my goals or they were ejected from my life. I'm not going to let someone else's fear, lack of vision, etc hold me back and you shouldn't either.

Finally, I talk about the good side of association in the form of education. Getting rid of people who drag you down and don't support your trading goals is a great first step, but you need to replace it with people who WILL support your goals.

Regardless of who you choose to learn from, you should get an education. This is all about time. Of course you can learn to trade on your own without any assistance but why would you?? Do you not value years of your life? What if you could speed up the learning process by 6 months? What if a good education was the difference between success and failure.

For me personally, I had been trading for about 3 years unsuccessfully when I met a trader named Tim that took me under his wing and taught me. 6 months later I was finally consistent. Speaking from personal experience, once you find a good educator, it will make a massive difference in your trading.

Day Trader picks entry point 4 hours in advance AND explains strategy...

Description: If you're learning to trade forex with a full-time job, then I would highly recommend this entry technique. Unlike most day trading strategies, this setup illustrated on the GBP/JPY requires very little time behind the screen

With the forex bank trading strategy and trading market manipulation in general, this is a strong suit. Because smart money builds positions over hours or even days, we often know the levels from which we would consider a trade many hours in advance.

This allows those with a full-time job to simply set up the entry as a limit order (what I would recommend regardless), along with the take profit and stop loss. From there, watching the screen is not required.

This video breaks down an awesome example of how we can use short-term market manipulation to day trade in the forex market. Knowing where large institutional traders have likely been getting long or short is critical to trading successfully as they have such a large influence on short-term price direction.

This live trade example on the GBP/JPY illustrates how we identify the point at which the short-term market bias had likely switched from long to short and the exact entry strategy we use to trade it. One of the biggest benefits to this style of trading is the ability to maintain a very high reward to risk ratio, which I believe is one of if not the most important factor to trading success.

Roughly a week ago, the ESMA (European Securities & Markets Authority) passed a new regulation that would require forex brokers to limit the leverage they offer to 30:1 MAX!

For minor pairs, gold, and major indices the leverage will be 20:1, 10:1 for commodities other than Gold and non-major equity indices, 5:1 on individual equities, and 2:1 on Cryptocurrencies.

This video is mainly geared towards the 30:1 and 20:1 leverage limits as that is what will affect forex traders. This video walks through how you can calculate leverage on your own, and in doing so, we illustrate that the new regulation is not as restrictive as you might initially think.

Having run a forex education service for the last decade, I see traders get wiped out time and time again because of over-leveraging. While I'm never one for government intervention, a reduction in leverage will no doubt help the majority of struggling retail traders succeed.
