So, now you are a forex currency trader. But how can you avoid the risk of losing money if you are a newbie? I think many newbie traders would like to have an experienced successful adviser, who could help both newbie or experienced trader, someone who could teach them how to trade without losing money.

Before you start or continue trading, you need to know the main rule of successful forex traders: you should use your own forex trading system. You can ask: why is this system so important? It is very simple. If you don’t have your own successful trading system you may lose your money after only 1 or 2 weeks. It’s very difficult to be a successful trader without using a tried and tested system. For many people trading is a gamble. They try to start trading as soon as possible and make money too quickly. This usually leads to losing on the first trade. Many successful traders have their own strategies that have proven their effectiveness.

But the problem is - it can take many years before you you’ll find this strategy, and also it will take some time to test how well it works. Yes this is true - some traders develop their strategies over 2 or more years! Here’s a simple test for you - Check your trading results for the last 3 Months. - Do you have your own rules? Do you make profits consistently? Is your capital growing every week / month? - If all answers are “yes” - you have already your own forex trading strategy. But if any questions were answered “no” - Stop your trading immediately! You’re losing your funds and you need to make some changes.

The easy way to change your losses to profits - Get an already working trading strategy from traders who are already making money! These successful traders have incorporated their trading strategies into a piece of forex trading software that helps traders make their decisions immediately. You need to be using software that gives you exact buy/sell signals.

This forex trading software will alert you about the best opportunities at the right moments - Because the program calculates many forex indicators and follows all trading rules automatically. So there isn’t the “human-error” factor. Ask yourself - do you say sometimes “It was a bad day today…” I’ll tell you why this is bad day for you. Because you think this is a bad day… and you made mistakes in your trading and lost money today. This software doesn’t know about “bad” days. It just follows the trading rules without emotion to make profits for you.

Every successfully trader uses a few strategies to increase their profits, and minimize losses. The simpler a strategy is, the better it is. I started to use an already proven and working forex trading system after an experienced professional trader gave this advice to me. And this helped me a lot. I think for many new traders or people who have some problems with it right now “I mean losses” this will be a good opportunity to turn your losses into profits.

With Christmas fast approaching and another New Year almost upon us, it hardly seems possible that 2007 is already reaching a close.Around this time every year the TV will undoubtedly be showing one of the many versions of “A Christmas Carol” originally written by Charles Dickens in which Scrooge is visited three ghosts - The Ghost of Christmas Past, The Ghost of Christmas Present and The Ghost of Christmas Future.Many versions of this popular Christmas Classic have been filmed over the years, and even Bill Murray has starred in one of the more humorous versions. My personal favourite is the 1951 version starring Alistair Sim.In the story, Scrooge - a very mean, money hungry and unkindly man - is shown the error of his ways by the three ghosts. The first ghost shows him where he went wrong in the past. The second, how he is now viewed by his peers and the final ghost shows him what the future holds if he does not change his ways.So how does your forex trading stack up to the scrutiny of the three forex ghosts this Christmas?How did you fare in the past year? Was your trading up to the standard that you would wish it to be? Or did your trading leave much to be desired?Did you exercise caution and patience measured with self discipline? Did you plan the trade and then trade the plan or were you so money hungry that you simply threw caution to the wind and traded every rumour and tip that you heard?When examined by the ghost of forex present, how did you do? Was 2007 a profitable year or could it have been better? Did you have a plan or trading system and stick to it? Are you able to acknowledge that you are where you are right now as a direct result of your own decisions - good or bad?As can bee seen from “A Christmas Carol”, it is never too late to change your ways!If your trading has been less profitable and less pleasurable than it might have been, take a leaf out of Scrooges book and mend your ways.Never trade without a plan or system. Always have the discipline to stick to that plan or system. Understand that trading is about winning and losing and accept both with good grace, but make sure that your plan or system consistently gives you more wins than losses.Remember that trading takes time and patience. Many traders fail not because they do not have the ability, but because they wrongly believe that they need to be in a live trade for most of the time that they are trading. In truth, successful traders spend more time watching and waiting than actually being in a live trade.Be generous. If you have made money this year - give some to a worthy cause.Before we know it, Christmas 2008 will be knocking on the door. Make sure that if the forex ghosts visit you next Christmas, you will have had a year to be joyous about.And on that note, I would like to wish you a Very Merry Christmas and a Most Prosperous New Year.—Martin Bottomley is a full time professional forex trader, acknowledged author, forex tutor and co-developer of forex trading software including The Amazing Stealth Forex Trading system.
