Starting in Forex

What is Forex: for its acronym in English (FOReign EXchange) is the largest market in the world, with a volume of more than US$ 3 trillion in transactions every day. In this market it is bought and sold money in different currencies. It never stops and is open from Monday to Friday 24 hours in their different time zones (New York, London, Tokyo, Sydney), which indicates that it is in fact a market where there are a large number of participants and therefore there is a possibility to earn money if you have the right skills but is also the possibility of losing if taken lightly.

How Forex money: money with different currencies (volatility) price change is made in the forex market, i.e. If the dollar is expected to increase its value dollars are bought and sold when they increase in value and the difference less Commission of the broker is the gain. The interesting thing is that this market can leverage, i.e. that the broker (company that supplies software and establishes costs of negotiation to make possible the buying and selling of foreign currency) opens much larger positions that the invested capital, allowing the financing.

For example, with a balance sheet leverage of $1,200 and $1,000 account initial is could be marketed up to $200,000. This makes that gains or losses magnify. Why always you will see what a letter warning of the volatility and the major risks of the forex market.

How start: the first thing you should take into account before you start in this activity as well as in any other; It is an investigation to find out what Forex (there are number of free information and quality online) and how works and take the time (not less than 6 months), in order to practice and learn the pros and cons, it is so basic here where most of the people committing the most common mistake "thinking that it is easy to" and this is due largely to advertising and ingenuity people who think that with a couple of clicks and investing a small sum "X" of money will become rich overnight, I make an analogy to help you understand better.

For a person be pilot or Aviator and earn money with this activity has to know how to handle almost any type of aircraft, know how to interpret the instruments knowing what to do in case of emergencies, practiced countless hours in simulators, know take off, landing, etc.. You will rise in a plane piloted by someone very motivated which has read a book about the sky and seen a couple of videos on YouTube about commercial aviation?, then I ask because it is believed that to Trade Forex you must not know anything, and the worst thing is that there are people who swallowed the story in 2 seconds.

Aspects to take into account: Now suppose that it has done well the task of studying, practicing in demo accounts (all the broker offer them so that interested parties can become familiar with the software offered), has taken the habit of reading news on a daily basis, be aware of events in the financial world, the terminology of the Forex market is handled, and is considered as a viable option to invest real money; they should keep in mind at least the following:

• Choice of Broker or company that provides the service or software to be able to buy or sell currency on the Forex market, you should parse very well how much time has been set, before authorities is registered and regulated and that reputation enjoys in the eyes of the general.

• Never invest money that is not willing to lose, i.e. never use your life savings, never borrow money to invest in Forex, not to use the money from the mortgage, etc.

• Trade Forex is a business and even a profession, therefore it should be treated as such, don't expect to become rich in a month, remember that you must have discipline, perseverance, and lots of practice.

• Investment in forex entails great risks and benefits are chord with the risk that is assumed. The forex market is an excellent and verified way to make money, but in proportions moderated according to the capital that is invested.

I invite you to consider the following: it is possible that our pilot friend in the example can take off, fly and land the plane without any problems and without knowing absolutely nothing about aviation? of course if probability we are talking about... but I would call it luck, and if you like people interested in Forex trust you your money luck, consider it a bet and bet it's more fun to go to las vegas to one of its casinos that sitting in front of a computer displaying graphics.

Finally consider that, for a pilot, it was not always easy; It became easy little by little as it was acquiring the skills, knowledge, and the exp
