FOREX 1 MIN Scalping Trading Tricks By The Most Successful Forex Trader

Forex Currency Scalping Trading Tricks. We highly recommend trading on a demo account for at least 1 month, but probably even longer (3-6 months) Many traders who graduate to real money accounts too soon lose money.

 
This is because the demands of real money trading are so much greater in terms of stress and emotions, and if you have not mastered demo trading before that, the combination of new experiences can be overwhelming.

Money Management and leverage, stop losses and targets This is one of the most important and most overlooked parts of trading. Many traders take huge risks with their capital in the hope that they will “get rich quickly” or recover previous losses with one good trade.

We would like to suggest some simple guidelines for managing your trading account with our FOREX 1 MIN TRADER Trading System, which will help you to reduce risk and maximize returns.

 

This means that for every dollar in your account, you should not trade more than 5 dollars per trade positions. For example, if your account size is $5000, you should trade no more than $25000 per position. This is 2.5 mini lots (a mini lot is worth $10,000).

We prefer to leverage even lower than 5:1 with 1:1 – 2:1 being optimal.

 

This is easily calculated. If the trade you want to enter requires a 40 pip stop loss for example, the risk to your account if stopped out is 40 pips x leverage/100%. In this case, if your leverage is 5:1 then the risk would be 40×5/100 = 2%. If the stop loss is higher, the leverage would have to be reduced.

 

If you are prepared to risk say 40 pips on a trade, ensure that the potential target for the trade is at least 80 pips. If you are prepared to risk 50 pips, make sure you have a possible target of 100 pips, and so on. Try to always aim for twice as much as you risk. If you stick to these simple rules, you should be able to weather the storms and have a long lasting and relatively stress free Forex career.

 

 

Candlestick Charts

For technical analysis, the FOREX 1 MIN TRADER Trading System uses candlestick charts of the following time-frame:

1 minute chart

 

Candlestick charts are more visually appealing and easier to interpret compared to bar charts. They enable forex traders to compare the relationship between the opening and closing price as well as the high and low price of a particular period.

In our FOREX 1 MIN TRADER Trading System, a green candlestick, where the closing price is higher than the opening price, indicates a rising candle with buying pressure while a red candlestick, where the closing price is lower than the opening price, indicates a falling candle with selling pressure.

 

 

FOREX 1 MIN TRADER Trading System strategy makes use of 1 minute chart to trade. We look for prices that have gone up/down too fast and heavy buying/selling pressure.

Then after identifying using 2 indicators, we will look out for prices going up but momentum and strength slowing down and vice versa (i.e this is called divergence in the 1 min power mountain indicator. The other indicator is used to ensure, we are selling at  verbought are and buying at the oversold area through the use of 1 min power line indicator. We will discuss in detail.

Markets Traded – All Forex Pairs, Major Pairs (GBP/JPY, EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY, USD/CAD, AUD/USD, USD/CHF), however the best Pairs are EUR/USD and GBP/USD because of the spread between the bid and ask price is 2-3 pips.

Charts – 1 minute chart

Charting Software – Any Indicators –

• 1 min Power Mountain (draw too horizontal lines –0.001 and 0.001)
• 1 Min Power Line (draw 2 horizontal lines –80 and –20, where –80 is oversold zone and –20 is owverbought zone)

 

 

 

1. Identify the 1 min Power mountain to exceed -0.001 level (This shows that the price trading to the lowest level and possible for a u-turn for a long trade).
2. Identify whether the next 1 min Power mountain is lower that the previous power mountain as indicated in point 1 in chart (This indicates that the strength is coming to the market).
3. Identify whether the next 1 min Power mountain is lower that the previous power mountain as indicated in point 2 in chart (This indicates that the strength is coming to the market). As soon as you have found 3 power mountain, increases in strength,(divergence) look out for point 4.
4. Point 4 is where the price have to go lower and lower, while the 1 min power mountain indicates that the histogram is not lower and lower but HIGHER and HIGHER. This clearly indicates DIVERGENCE.
5. Ensure that the I min Power Line (Blue line) is in Oversold territory i.e anything above the –20 is overbought and below –80 is oversold. In this case, the prices indicates that it is oversold.
6. Identify the Power Bar. Power Bar is the the 3rd divergence mountain that has immediately created a strength by its histogram is going lower and lower, and then a peak histogram is formed, the next histogram is shorter, and at the close of the prices (at close of candle), this shorter histogram bar is called Power Bar.

Look at the prices. Let the price peak formed, as soon as the peak is formed, let the price retrace. Enter a long trade immediately WHEN THE PRICE GO HIGHER THEN THE PEAK, (a breakout to the upside) with risk 1:1, and trailing stop with risk 1:2 or 1:3.

Place your stop loss 5 pips below the low of the previous support.I.e if your stop loss is 10 pips, them your 1st profit target is 10 pips, followed by 20pips and if you want 30 pips. But make sure to put your stop loss to breakeven when you hit your first target.

Take note: Alternatively when you want a good risk and reward, after entry, wait for the price to reach to the overbought zone and close the trade immediately when it reaches to the –20 zone by looking at the 1 min power line (blue line). This often give you a minimum of 1:4 or 1:5 risk and reward.

 

 

1. Identify the 1 min Power mountain to exceed 0.001 level (This shows that the price trading to the highest level and possible for a u-turn for a short sell trade).
2. Identify whether the next 1 min Power mountain is lower that the previous power mountain (This indicates that the weakness is coming to the market).
3. Identify whether the next 1 min Power mountain is lower that the previous power mountain (This indicates that the weakness is coming to the market). Ensure you have found 3 power mountain, which shows it weakens in strength, (divergence)
4. The price have to go higher and higher, while the 1 min power mountain indicates that the histogram is not higher and higher but LOWER and LOWER. This clearly indicates DIVERGENCE.
5. Ensure that the I min Power Line (Blue line) is in Overbought territory i.e anything above the –20 is overbought and below –80 is oversold. In this case, the prices indicates that it is overbought.
6. Identify the Power Bar. Power Bar is the the 3rd divergence mountain that has immediately created a weakness by its histogram going higher and higher, and then a peak histogram is formed, the next histogram is shorter, and at the close of the prices (at close of candle), this shorter histogram bar is called Power Bar.

Look at the prices. Let the price support/trough to form, as soon as the support is formed, let the price retrace to the upside. Enter a sell short trade immediately WHEN THE PRICE GO LOWER THEN THE SUPPORT, (a breakout to the downside) with risk 1:1, and trailing stop with risk 1:2 or 1:3.

Place your stop loss 5 pips above the high of the previous resistance. I.e if your stop loss is 10 pips, them your 1st profit target is 10 pips, followed by 20 pips and if you want 30 pips.

But make sure to put your stop loss to breakeven when you hit your first target. Take note: Alternatively when you want a good risk and reward, after entry, wait for the price to reach to the oversold zone and close the trade immediately when it reaches to the –20 zone by looking at the 1 min power line (blue line). This often give you a minimum of 1:4 or 1:5 risk and reward.

The FOREX 1 MIN TRADER TRADING SYSTEM alone cannot help a trader to be profitable. Discipline in trading is also equally important, if not even more important than having the right system or strategy. Therefore, it is only appropriate that this ebook end with this topic.

When come to trading, especially forex trading, there are two aspects of discipline:
money management and emotional (or psychological) management.

 

 

The following are 10 simple but important rules of money management (risk management) that a trader need to adhere if he or she wants to be consistent in reaping
profits from the forex market:

1. The money that one uses to open a forex trading account should be considered as arisk capital. Even if one loses them, it should not affect his or her lifestyle adversely. In other words, use only money which one can afford to lose for forex trading.
2. Do not trade with a leverage of higher than 200:1 (i.e. a margin level of 0.5%). Leverage level of 200:1 (0.5%), 100:1 (1.0%) and 50:1 (2.0%) are acceptable but not higher than these, as the higher the leverage, the higher is also the risk.
3. When trading, priority should be given to capital preservation, then to minimizing losses, and finally to maximizing profit.
4. Always ensure that a stop loss is in placed when opening a trade position.
5. For every trade, do not risk more than 5 percent of the balance margin. This is computed by dividing the stop loss for the trade with the balance margin.
   Example: if the stop loss for one’s EUR/USD trade is 20 pips (USD200) and one’s
   balance margin is USD5,000, then the risk is 4% when trading with one standard lot.
6. Always trade with a risk-reward ratio of not more than 1:2 (50%) in mind. However, the recommended risk-reward ratio is 1:3 (33%). With such risk-reward ratio, even if one is to lose half of the trades, he or she will still end up with some profit by the end of the month.
7. When the market is against your open position, do not add another similar position as you may be actually compounding your losses.
8. Do not over trade. This means do not have too many open positions which your net margin balance is not able support in the event the market is against you.
9. Do not trade unnecessarily. Trade only when the risk is the minimal and the size of the profit is able to justify the risk. (Note: Forex trading is basically about risk management.)
10. Do not accumulate too much profit in the trading account. In other words, do not leave too much funds with your broker. There is always risk in leaving too much funds with a broker.

Besides the need to know how to use the trading system well, and to know how to manage one’s money and trading emotion, we also need to adopt the mindset of an institutional or professional trader. Since more than 95% of retail forex traders lose their money to institutional traders, why not adopt the mindset of these institutional traders so that we can also beat them in their own game.

The above table differentiates the trading behavior between institutional and retail traders. Study their differences and understand the importance of the need to change our mindset. Without this change in mindset, no matter what trading system we may have, we will still lose money to the institutional traders in the long run.

 

 

We have now come to the end of the ebook on the FOREX 1 MIN TRADER Trading System.

However, your learning to be a professional and profitable trader has either just begun if you are a newbie, or continues even if you are an experienced trader.
