Hi everyone,<\/p>\n

This week I would like to emphasise the importance of staying patient<\/strong> and waiting for quality setups.<\/p>\n

You DO NOT NEED<\/strong> to take many trades to reach your target\/s. Forcing trades makes you give back your gains to the market. When quality, high probability setups then do come along you end up playing catchup instead of making a profit or hitting your targets. Quality over quantity!\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let’s take Marc’s trading this week as an example. Remember, Marc DOES NOT watch or follow charts everyday. He waits for quality setups and combines them with a fundamental picture that he builds up by following the news. You do not need an economics degree<\/strong>, but if you want to trade the currencies of various countries against<\/em> each other, especially for a living, it makes sense to know what’s going on in the world… <\/em>A solid understanding of the ‘red flag’ news events and a little effort in staying on top of news events\u00a0is all you need.<\/p>\n

Marc’s plan:
\n<\/strong>
\n– A fundamentally biased idea of a weak GBP (lower interest rate hikes + poor internal tax decisions)
\n– Using the M2 strategy to look for A grade entry areas.
\n– <\/em>Looking for GBP weakness.
\n– One GBP trade this week
\n– Currently 385 pips in profit.
\n– A couple of swing trades as well (based on the same premise or idea) for a total of over 500 pips…this week.<\/strong>
\n(All of this shared in the forum)<\/p>\n

Marc also mentioned that had he stuck to his own analysis and kept a GBP and EUR short from earlier the year he would have made a year’s profit already! Do you want to trade often or make money?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Trading should not be a fun hobby or something you like to dabble with on the side. Every time you enter the market you are accepting risk. Have clearly defined percentage targets (in your business plan) and filters that allow you to only step into the markets when the probability is in your favour. Your end goal is to make money, and if you can make money by only trading once or twice a month, that’s all you need.<\/p>\n

Remember Monday is a national holiday in the US and trading could be slow.<\/p>\n

DXY CHART
\n<\/strong>Another strong week for the USD with strong job figures on Friday.\u00a0 Based on this weekly chart, I personally see price challenging the 120.40\/50 zone very soon.<\/p>\n
