Basic FOREX Strategy
Technical analysis and fundamental analysis are the two basic areas of strategy
in the FOREX market which is the exact same as in the equity markets. However,
technical analysis is by far the most common strategy that is used by individual
FOREX traders. Here is a brief overview of both forms of analysis and how they
directly apply to forex trading:
Fundamental Analysis
If you think it's hard enough to value one company, you should try valuing a whole
country instead. Fundamental analysis in the forex market is often an extremely
difficult one, and it's usually used only as a means to predict long-term trends.
However it is important to mention that some traders do trade short term strictly on
news releases. There are a lot of different fundamental indicators of the currency
values released at many different times. Here are a few of them to get you started:
• Non-farm Payrolls
• Purchasing Managers Index (PMI)
• Consumer Price Index (CPI)
• Retail Sales
• Durable Goods
You need to know that these reports are not the only fundamental factors that you
have to watch. There are also quite a variety of meetings where you can get some
quotes and commentary that can affect markets just as much as any report. These
meetings are often brought out to discuss any interest rates, inflation, and other
issues that have the ability to affect currency values.
Even changes in how things are worded when addressing certain issues such as the
Federal Reserve chairman's comments on interest rates; can cause a volatile market.
Two important meetings that you have to watch out for are the Federal Open Market
Committee and Humphrey Hawkins Hearings.
Just by reading the reports and examining the commentary, it can help FOREX
fundamental analysts to get a better understanding of any and all long-term market
trends and also to allow short-term traders to be able to profit from extraordinary
happenings. If you do decide to follow a fundamental strategy, you will want to be
sure to keep an economic calendar handy at all times so you know when these reports
are released. Your broker may also be able to provide you with real-time access to
this kind of information.
Technical Analysis
Just like their counterparts in the equity markets, technical analysts of the FOREX
trading market analyze price trends. The only real difference between technical
analysis in FOREX and technical analysis in equities is the time frame that is involved
in that FOREX markets are open 24 hours a day.
Because of this, some forms of technical analysis that factor in time have to be
modified so that they can work with the 24 hour FOREX market. Some of the most
common forms of technical analysis used in FOREX are:
• The Elliott Waves
• Fibonacci studies
• Parabolic SAR
• Pivot points
A lot of technical analysts have a tendency to combine technical studies to make
more accurate predictions on your behalf. (The most common method for them is
combining the Fibonacci studies with Elliott Waves.) Others prefer to create trading
systems in an effort to repeatedly locate similar buying and selling conditions.
Using a profitable trading system with a demo account for a few weeks is a great way
to get an accurate “feel” for Forex Trading – without risking any of your own money!
