Increasing your Productivity as a Trader


Forex Market Education 


Time is a difficult concept to come to terms with.

Either we have to much Time on our hands or so very little of it.  Time is a relative concept according to the professions we choose and how we use Time determines the measure of our success in the attempt to reach our chosen goals in life. As a trader invariably the pace of life adds to the tension of the occupation. The market pulse is intense, price changes dynamic and consequently the trader finds him or herself trapped within a framework of a speeding clock. The pressures of trading a concept of Time at the extreme measure of speed often forces the trader into mistakes, some of which can be recovered and some of which may tend to lead to disastrous circumstances. Living in the fast lane is not advisable in the long run and wear and tear and fatigue will take it's toll. A better understanding of Time and how we choose to structure our lives within the framework of the Time speed we choose becomes the mainstay of mental and physical health.

A frenetic trading style is unsustainable. There is a misconception about currency trading that it is an arena for the elite. Bank dealing rooms are full of dealers that constantly make markets making 2 sided bid/ offer posts on their Reuters or Bloomberg terminals. Dealers are the conduits for commercial customers to secure their spot and forward currency orders. The market is very active and bid/offer spreads set by dealers can change every 30 seconds. traders on the other hand are not led by commercial orders and therefore become a mismatch in a day currency market session in that they are attempting to emulate dealers and trade for profit. Bank dealers are obligated to deal spreads; day traders are not and should not be there in the first place! Traders should enter the FX markets with longer term positions in mind than developing mindsets to mimic bank dealers and watch news releases and 5 minute candlestick charts to try book some pips on the day. Traders need to slow down and deal in the Forex markets from the outside and not from the inside of the arena. The inside of the arena belongs to the bank dealers.
