ETP’s are relatively new vehicles for investment and option trading investment markets, their popularity has exploded over the last decade as investors sought ways to diversify away from traditional investment vehicles; stocks, bonds and their indices. While investment vehicles change and investor focus on sectors change daily, some things never change, here are 10 Rules for investment trading that never seem to change:

1. ALWAYS TAKE WINDFALL PROFITS

2. Buy Triple Tops and Sell Triple Bottoms

3. Sell Double Tops and Buy Double Bottoms

4. The TREND is your Friend

5. Buy a two day break in a BULL market and Sell a two day Rally in a BEAR Market.

6. Go with outside reversals. A lower low than the previous day then up above the previous high, constitutes a Buy: The opposite is true with a SELL. Markets always go down faster than they go up. You must follow this rule and SELL.

7. GO with the MIRROR IMAGE. One of the most reliable indicators is the pattern of a single day of market action followed by a reversal of the same or similar length. If on the third day it retraces in the range and then extends in the reversal direction, GO WITH IT!

8. Always BUY new Contract highs on Friday if the Market is trading within 10 % of its session highs on the closing range. SELL the close if the market is making new contract lows and is within 10 % of its session low for the day. This is called the Weekend Rule.

9. Never trade on Negative equity.

10. Look for a 4 -day or longer congestion Range. Go with the breakout of  this range. If the market breaks below the congestion- SELL. Vice versa if it breaks above the Range.

Observation. experience , memory and mathematics–These are what a successful trader must depend on. He Must not only observe accurately but remember at all times what he has observed. He cannot bet on the unreasonable or on the unexpected, however strong his personal convictions maybe about man’s unreasonableness or however certain he may feel that the unexpected happens very frequently. He must bet always on probabilities–that is try to anticipate them. Years of practice at the game, of constant study, of always remembering, enables the trader to act when the unexpected happens as well as when the expected comes to pass. A man can have great mathematical ability and unusual power of accurate observation and yet fail in speculation unless he also possesses the experience and memory “–Reminiscences of a Stock operator- 1929

Discover the Wrong Forex Trading Strategies

Are you guilty of employing the wrong forex strategies? Maybe you’re not even aware that you are not going about your forex trading in a way that will lead to long term success and profits. See if you don’t recognize yourself and/or your forex trading behavior in any of these wrong forex strategies.

• You trade with all of your money. You have no targets in place, no entry or exit points, and you trade as much and as often as you like. If you are losing, you stay in the game in the hope of recouping your losses, and if you are winning, you stay in the game in the hope of winning still more. You lack discipline.

• Your goal is simply to make as much of a profit as quickly as you can, even if it means waiting for your currency to reach a specific high price before you even consider selling it. You let greed drive your forex trading.

• You ignore market trends and forex indicators; you eschew business, economic and global news. You know better; you trust your gut, your intuition, you play your hunches. No one can tell you anything because you are a forex trading master. You know everything.

• You consider yourself a forex day trader, using hourly charts and daily ranges to work from… while you don’t know everything there is to know about  forex trading, you obviously know more than millions of other traders who are too afraid to give day trading a go.

• You use all of the leverage available to you. Hey, what’s the point of having leverage if you don’t use it? After all, that’s what it’s there for, right?

• You find forex trading easy. You can’t see what the big deal is and what everyone else is talking about. Who needs books and guides and study tools.

• You consider yourself a lucky person, and luck is all you need to be a successful forex trader.

So, which one (or ones?) are you? All of these wrong forex strategies will lead to your early exit as a forex trader. But, there’s still time for you to right the wrongs, now that you know what you’re doing wrong.
