Guidelines Before Adopting Any Strategy

Money Management : This is the most crucial of all. Without thinking about pros and cons many traders enter trades using more number of lots out of greed. Although, they may gain on some occasions at first but ultimately they lose when the trades go against what they had anticipated. When the 'margin requirements' fall short due to losses, they are either forced to close the trades or the broking firm closes the trades themselves.




Try to select a few trades only that are potentially the best, with minimum risk and not many. Manage funds in your trading account in a wise manner. If you have $1000 in trading account, do not use the entire money in trades but a part of it.

If the entire money is invested and in case anything goes wrong then you may have to close the trade to avoid major losses. If a part of the amount is invested, then one need not close the trade all on a sudden and may wait until the trade turns into one's favour.

Following Forex Strategies : These days all broking companies offer 'Demo Account'. Whichever strategy is followed, it must be first tested in a 'demo account'. Doing this one becomes confident about the strategy i.e. whether it is working and winning before putting it into real trading platform. A strategy may be a simple one containing basic indicators; medium strategy with default indicators or custom indicators available with most broking firms or the strong/complex strategy armed with custom indicators.
