Price had been bouncing along in a tight range.<\/p>\n<p>Price kept reversing and bouncing back down from 78.20.\u00a0Eventually price broke and CLOSED (the candle MUST close on a break out). Often price will start to move out and promptly turn back again. This is known as a &#8220;fake out&#8221; and means you will lose.<\/p>\n<p>On this occasion the very next candle came down and touched the 78.20 before moving away for almost 400 pips profit.<\/p>\n<h2>What&#8217;s so good about break out trades?<\/h2>\n<p>This type of trade then can be very profitable and usually has a very good risk reward ratio which is what we are aiming for. I advise students to aim for 100 pips a week\/20 pips a day as a target. Therefore this one move gave a months profit from one trade! The reason why I advise 100 pips? Its achievable. If you can\u00a0<strong><i>consistently<\/i>\u00a0<\/strong>make 20 pips a day you can become a very profitable, very successful trader. All you need to do is ramp up the amount you stake, or let your account grow. With the benefit of compounding you can turn a $1000 into a million in 30 months. I will explain in a separate article in the blog.<\/p>\n<p>I have a colleague who has turned $100.000 in to $2.4 million in 3 years just making an average of 10 pips a day! There is no need to be aiming for 100&#8217;s of pips per trade. Forex always look so easy when you look back on a chart BUT everybody feels they got out of a winning trade too soon. Be grateful for what the market gives you. If you can be consistently profitable you can make a substantial income trading forex and with compounding thrown into the equation (Einstein stated that compound interest is the 8th wonder of the world) you can accumulate great wealth.<\/p>\n<p>Break out trades are my main forex method.
