Succesful trading is not only watching charts. It is a mix of technical indicators and fundamentals. And much more important: Trading experience. I have been trading forex for 5 years now, before I worked as investment banker for a swiss bank. My strategy is based on technical analysis, fundamental dates and very important... my market feeling. I only trade if all 3 factors are favorable. Sometimes the charts look great, but my sentiment is negative, so I do not trade. Trading without emotion. The customers cannot expect a lot of trades, overtrading the account is one of the worst errors. What a succesful trader needs are a few profitable trades, sometimes only 1 per week. Do not believe that trading every day will bring more profit, at the beginning of my career as forex trader, I made this mistake and I lost money. I do not trade frequently, after 2 or 3 good trades at the beginning of the month, sometimes I will stop trading, because I do not want to risk a nice profit with a losing trade. Do not expect 300% after 2 months, but I am confident that with patience you will make good profits.
