What is a trading system
Printer FriendlyFont size:  Small  |  Medium  |  Large  |  Extra Large


A trading system - if you look up on web - its hyped-up - everybody talks about in some sort of a mystic language - some spiritual path you need to follow and some even call it "the ultimate solution" - in reality - It anything but.

Trading system if I may draw a parellel is like "learning to drive on the road and sharing the road with other drivers"

There two steps in the above process:
  1. Learn to drive
  2. Learn to share the road


You need to know critical elements of a car that you are going to be using - you don't need to know the function of an engine - however its wise to always know whether its a 2-cyclinder or 4-cylinder etc..

Let's say its a 4-cyclinder like gbp/usd pair - what it means is that it consumes more gas (larger spread than eur/usd) and but also has power (average-daily-range of this pair (120+ pips) is almost double that of eur/usd which is only 75 pips).

That could mean two things - you will spend a little more on gas (spreads) and added power to the engine - is a double edged sword - can take you to your desired destination (if you know how to navigate well) fast or you could crash the car into a tree and get seriously hurt (lose all your money sooner than you think).

So first learn how to drive before you step on that gas.

Driving part is easy - atleast you follow these rules when doing the DMV test.

  1. Get into the car - fasten your belt
  2. Make sure your hazard lights are working
  3. Your rare-view mirrors are in position
  4. Turn on the ignition
  5. start driving (or in this case - let the trade run)


Let see each one step-by-step:
