I 100% agree with you. is not like I am rich, but Iām really want to do it to spend more time with the family. I have 8-5 and wife works on the weekends, therefore family time is none. Thatās my motivation!! 11pm on a Saturday and i think it was an 8hours day studying. I feel like in college .
I am soo hooked with that Audiobook. Thanks for sharing
Hey guys Noob question.
Ok so after a week of reading and videos, decided to try my first paper trade. Downloaded Metatrader5 did my homework etc., lines everywhere 
(over analysis took me like 30 minutes 1 chart hahaha), etc, and decided that I was going to place my first trade. Sell Stop for next opening date, I know the market is closed, but even though Iām sel āpending orderā, I canāt place the trade and I am getting the message Market is closed. So, I canāt place those type of orders? I am planning on Swing trading, I canāt place orders when the market is open due to my job, so?? Am I doing something wrong, or definitely I would not be able to trade forex ?
Thanks , great advice
You can place your orders 24/5, its only the weekend when you canāt.
Now youāve done the analysis and know what trades you want to place, try again when the market reopens tonight
Thanks Eddie. So,would I be able to place a USD/CAD on a Sunday Night? For the openning of the next day? What about a monday night? I was planning on placing orders around 8pm PT
You will be able to place when the Asian market opens, not sure how that relates with PT as im UK based myself.
After that, markets remain open until the close of the us market on Friday

Hi Eddie,
Yes I get it now. Sincr all markets trades the pairs, I just need to wait until there is one open (in my case sunday afternoon) after that there is always one open until friday afternoon.
Thanks
Yes, it is the fact that Forex trading requires a lot of inspiration and extra effort as well. It is not a get rich quick market but it is a get rich market for sure if you have preparation for your trades. You people can share your thoughts as well. Thank you!

Hello ForexMago. There is nothing better in this world than spending some quality time with your children. Forex is a risky business but is worth the trouble. My advise for you is to trade in demo account as it is like the real one. See how it goes and then leave your day job if you want to.
