  • Part-time Traders Deserve Respect Too
    More than likely, you feel you fall in to the large category of people who consider themselves part-time traders - or would do so if they were active in the markets. That can cover a lot of ground, though, so it makes sense to start with a definition.

    For our purposes, a part-time trader is one who can, at most, spend a couple of hours a day developing trading strategies and putting them in to effect. That covers an awful lot of people It runs the full spectrum from those ...
  • Part-Time Trading – The Best Paying Side Job You Could Have
    I’m going to tell you a little story.

    In March of this year I was looking at the markets, reviewing the price charts to see if there was anything worth trading. In this particular instance it was the foreign exchange (forex) market I was scanning and I did come across an interesting development.

    You see, the Euro was setting up to making what looked to be a big break higher against the Dollar. Based on my analysis, which took all of about two minutes, I saw a pattern fo...
  • Part-Time Trading – Making The Most Of Your Time
    It seems like I am always answering the question as to whether trading can be done meaningfully on a part-time basis. My answer is always the same – “Absolutely!”

    Somehow people have been convinced that you have to spend hour upon hour in front of computer watching the markets in order to have a chance at success. That is simply just not true. Part-time trading can be extremely worthwhile – in some cases even more so than trading more actively. I am proof of that. Even tho...
  • Why You Should Consider Trading Futures
    One of the least understood financial markets is the one for futures. That is in part a function of the fact that for many years it has been referred to as “commodity futures”, which has no doubt turned many would-be traders away, folks who don’t have any interest in things like Pork Bellies and Frozen Concentrated Orange Juice (to include a few from the popular Trading Places film). The other factor is the perceived complexity of the futures market. The fact of the matter, t...
  • Start Trading: Throw Those Excuses Out The Window
    People make all kinds of excuses as to why they cannot get involved in investing or trading the financial markets. In this article, some of the most prominent are debunked.

    "I don’t have time"

    Despite being one of the most frequently heard, this is probably the most pathetic excuse for not trading there is. Why? Because the availability of technology and information in the modern day means that we can operate in literally any time frame we want. Many people, when they h...
  • How The Financial Markets Can Grow More Than Just Your Bank Account
    The financial markets provide us with the opportunity to grow in ways that most people probably do not even think about. We all know of the gains in wealth to be had buying and selling stock, bonds, commodities, currencies, and other instruments. One need not look far to find stories about the riches to be had. Successful traders, investors and portfolio managers like George Soros, Peter Lynch, and Warren Buffet have become household names. What is less commonly talked about ...
  • Investing vs. Trading - What's The Difference?
    There is a question which is sometimes asked by those new to the financial markets, and even occasionally debated by experienced participants. That question is how one differentiates between trading and investing. Because both trading and investing - when one considers them from the perspective of the financial markets - are performed in very similar fashions, they are often thought of as interchangeable actions.

    In my book, The Essentials of Trading, I followed along wit...
  • First Of All, Know Thyself
    One of the most important elements of success in trading (and life in general) is knowing yourself. If you do not understand how you tick, you will never be truly prepared for the demands of trading, and likely your performance will suffer as a result.

    Let me use myself as an example.

    I am what might be considered project oriented. By that I mean I like to move from one thing to the next – always have something upon which to focus my attention. As my friends and colleag...
  • Economic Data And Its Influence On The Financial Markets
    The things which contribute to price levels and action in the financial markets are numerous and diverse, and their influences can vary through time, and across different markets. This article identifies the different types of Economic Data influences and the role they play.

    There are two ways economic information can influence prices. The first is in the macro sense. Macroeconomic inputs include:

    Interest Rates
    Economic Growth (GDP)
    Government Budget Surpluses/Defici...
  • Expectations For Trading Or Investing Returns
    Clearly, anyone who trades does so with the expectation of making profits. We take risks to gain rewards. The question each trader must answer, however, is what kind of return he or she expects to make? This is a very important consideration, as it speaks directly to what kind of trading will take place, what market or markets are best suited to the purpose, and the kinds of risks required.

    Let s start with a very simple example. Suppose a trader would like to make 10% per...
  • Managing Option Directional Trades
    Options provide great position management and risk control potential when using them to trade the market directionally. This goes beyond the simple fact that a long position in a call or put option has an absolute maximum risk equal to the cost of the option (plus commissions, of course). That, in and of itself, is a very useful thing. What this article discusses, however, are a couple of handy little things one can do while holding an option position to maximize the return a...
  • Five More New Trader Pitfalls You Can Avoid
    Trading can be rewarding. You can make lots of money. You can have tons of fun. You can have something to brag about to your friends. Unfortunately, trading can also just as easily lead to financial distress and high blood pressure if you don't go about it the right way. Here are a five more things you can do as a fledgling trader to get off on the right foot.

    #1 Have a System!

    You will not be a successful trader if you do not have a system. They come in all different s...
  • Realized Vs Unrealized Returns
    Traders deal with two different kinds of returns when they speak of profits and losses made in the markets. Realized returns, often referred to as "booked", are those which come about as the result of a position which has been closed out. Unrealized, or "paper", gains and losses are those which involve open positions. An example of a paper return would be when one buys a stock at $100 and it rises to $110, but the trade remains open. In this case the trader has an unrealized ...
  • Five New Trader Pitfalls You Can Avoid
    So you want to trade, eh? Or have you already started? What drew you to it? Was it the huge profit potential? Maybe it was the excitement. Or perhaps you love the challenge of solving a big, multi-dimensional puzzle.

    Whatever the case, there's certainly a number of things that make trading the financial markets worthwhile. At the same time, however, there are some huge obstacles along the path to profits and success. This article discusses five ways to avoid trouble in the...
  • Forex Trading Profits Fom Calendar Patterns
    Most traders have heard of seasonal patterns, something which is mostly associated with commodities. The foreign exchange market also has calendar patterns which influence trading, and just like in commodities, traders can take advantage of them
    to improve their odds for success and profits.

    Monthly Patterns

    Nearly all currency pairs have one or more months during which they have a directional tendency. There are three pairs in particular which have traded in the same ...
