Day Trading - What is It?

Posted 1 year, 3 months ago at 9:13 am. 0 comments

Day trading is basically the buying and selling of stocks over a relatively short period of time, sometimes minutes. It was once only available to floor traders and investment banks but now the Internet has made day trading accessible to anyone with a computer system. There is good money to be made (and lost) using this method.

As an example, a day trader might buy 1000 shares of stock A at 10:00 as the price begins to move upwards on good news, then sell it at 10:04 when the stock price has risen (for example, by $0.50). The day trader would make $500 profit, less his commission which with today’s low commission rates of around $30 or less per trade, that’s a nice $440 or better, excluding taxes.

Day trading usually follows one of two approaches, either beating the spread or attempting to catch short term trends. The spread is the difference between what is being offered for a stock (the bid) and the price being asked for the stock (the ask). With spread trading, you attempt to buy at the ‘bid’ and sell at the ‘ask’ as many times as possible. Spread traders can make hundreds of this type of trade every day.

ECNs or Electronic Communication Networks are a recent development. They are completely electronic exchanges with very low commissions and very fast execution of orders. As a method of encouraging traders to use their networks, some ECNs offer incentives in the form of a rebate. In some cases, this can allow a day trader to make money simply from buying and selling a stock at the same price.

Day trading can be very profitable if you get it right, but you need to research as much as possible and take advantage of the free simulation software that is available for you to practice with before you take the plunge. Remember, day trading isn’t for the faint hearted!

What Kind of Trading Strategy Is Best For YOU?

Posted 1 year, 6 months ago at 2:21 am. 0 comments

The biggest mistake that most beginning forex traders make is made before they even place their first trade. In fact, they usually make this mistake before they even open their trading account!

Most traders begin by learning the mechanics and terminology of trading.

They study charts and look for trends. They try to find predictable patterns and how to profit from them.

They learn the meanings of the words “pip”, “cable”, “swissie”, “shoulder”, “flag”, etc.

They study how the “Aussie” behaves when the Royal Bank of Australia lowers rates or what the impact on the EUR/USD will be after Jean Claude Trechet says the word “vigilant” three times during the ECB rate announcement or what the rising price of oil will do for the Canadian dollar.

But the one thing most traders don’t do before they begin their careers in this “sport” is to properly assess their own temperament and how that will effect their trading.

The cute E*Trade commercial which shows a talking baby placing a trade is accurate. It’s easy to place a trade. The mechanics are easy enough to learn. And many traders, even adults, feel like barfing right after they pull the trigger!

Are you going to barf every time you place a trade? Will you be afraid of losing? Will you become angry when you do lose on a trade - even if it’s a small amount? When you close out a trade, will you feel elated (on a win) or humiliated (with a loss)?

These are all questions that you need answered before you place that first trade.

When you have answered the tough questions about yourself, you will be well on your way to determining what kind of trader you will be.

Many of those who hold educational seminars and write books on forex traders talk about 3 types of traders: the day-trader, the swing-trader, and the investor. However, I believe there is a viable fourth category: the non-trader.

The day-trader goes for the quick gain. Successful day-traders have nerves of steel and don’t mind sitting in front of their computers watching the up-ticks and down-ticks of their favorite pair(s). They can easily stomach many small losses knowing that they only need a successful trade or two to put them ahead. The day-trader depends heavily on the charts and technical analysis. But they really only care about what’s going on with the 5-minute, 10-minute, or 15 minute charts. A daily chart represents an eternity for a day-trader.

The next type of trader is the swing-trader. This type of trader is a bit more patient then the day trader. The swing-trader will read the weekend papers and websites and study the fundamentals of their favorite pair. They’ll then take a look at the yearly and daily charts, looking for good entries and then decide on their target. Then they’ll set up their trade on Monday morning, which may or may not be triggered. When the entry for the trade is triggered, the swing-trader is patient to then wait until either their stop or target takes them out. The swing-trader’s trades will run for days, weeks, or months, typically - and that’s plenty fast for them.

The third type of trader is the investor. And the investor is the most patient of them all. The investor trades off of very long term trends. He places his trade and forgets about it. It may be months or years before he exits his trade. The investor relies mostly on fundamentals and long-term economic trends.

The last type of trader is the non-trader. Although, the dealers wouldn’t agree, it’s actually ok to not trade. For some people, trading is just going to be too stressful for them. Even though education can relieve a lot of this stress it won’t eliminate for everyone.

What category am I in? Right now, I’m in category four. But, soon, look for me in category 3.

What is the best category to be in? Again, it all depends on who you are.
