New trader just started

I think that I have the same problem. Now I interesting in scalping, its new experience for me. I trade a little time, but actively

Perfect; as a newbie, focusing on the limited trading pair is the best practice! By the way; do you have any plan to increase the pairs number in near future?

You have selected good pair for start, but please do understand that it have very big volume probably, for some positive result you may start with something like your own currency in home country and USD to get some profit cause you know it already.

@pip_pimp The weekends are spent relaxing…and recharging from the week ahead, so by Sunday evening you are ready to go again :slight_smile:

So traders do two things

  1. They evaluate their best and worse trades for the week. The goal is to discover “What went wrong/right?” and “WHY?”…The WHY is important as you need to learn from your mistakes in order to improve

If your a newbie trader you will soon realize that your worst trades are revenge trades.

  1. Study weekly charts to see how markets could potentially head in the upcoming week.

EUR/USD is a good pair but it is very dependent on new coming out of the ECB following QE. So you need to be awake during EU business hours so you can react.

i definitely agree i will be comfortable with a 1.08 level

thank alot appreciate the feed back

EUR/USD is really common pair to trade and it also having high movement every day so you will get analysis of this pair any time.

On the other hand; the trading spread is relatively low; this is why EURUSD is the most popular trading pair in FX industry!

@pip_pimp no problem…Are you following any big investors like Bill Ackman or Carl Ichan ?

On the weekends?

I do non-forex and work-related things! You should set a time off the game.

Well; do you use pending order? I am asking because; I think scaling in live account as a part time trader; is really challenging!

yes i use stop profits and losses but i monitor it and if i see enough profit i exit before time
