I see that a lot of aspiring Forex traders spend a lot of time looking at trading as being just entering and exiting trades. However, I know that profitable Forex trading requires more than that.

Cheat Sheet The 5 Elements

• Set your requirements: decide on the type of trading you are going to perform based on your preference and available time.
• Create a money management plan: decide on what is going to be your maximum risk per trade, and maximum drawdown so you never run out of money...EVER!
• Plan your market analysis: focus on ONE thing to trade. It's totally fine to try things and throw them away if you don't like them, but you must focus at some point.
• Get the right support: find someone or a group that can help you in hard times and good times.
• Review: review your trades to find patterns among the good/bad trades and focus more on the good to replicate it. Track everything!
