And you my friend need to get your hear straight. Do you really think that it works THAT simple? Do you really think you can have a 1 000 (USD, Pounds, etc), then you install something, wait a little and !BAM! you've earned 5 000 or 10 000. Well, proove me wrong, but it's not that simple, because if that was simple I'd run to bank right now, invested in forex and earned big time.

To earn, you need knowledge, you need expertise, you need experience, you need to dedicate time to it. There are NO ready-made solutions, at least for forex, or else everybody would earn, but the harsh reality is that most people are loosing.

You can't earn without investing your time and energy. Anyhow, I hope I did not discourage you from FOREX. It is an interesting thing to be involed in, and it can bring you money. But again, all that requires a lot of background work

Kindest regards and good luck,

Diam0nd.

Ohhh, KKK, coz I thought maybe there is a whole new meaning to FX that is different from FOREX Thanks for the answer.

So can someone answer my questions and let me know what steps i need to take, becasue what does an EA do then if you have to do all your own work? I thought that was what the EA does?

What stuff will i need to learn and how do i apply it to Forex?

Please help me understand how i would use the EA, if i need to do my own work.

Thanks.

 

Jamie,

If you are hoping that you can take your 1000 quids and use a few EAs and make 3000 per month right away... then I am going to tell you, "forget it... you won't be able to do it". Anyone who tells you that you can do it right away is lying. Trading is hard work and more importantly mostly psychological. Maybe you have the right temperament, but usually it takes years to develop it.

Start testing, demo trading and then live trading with small lots. See how it goes and then the answer to your question will be there for you.

Good luck.

1. OK. First things first, what is an EA. EA (aka expert advisor) is basically a program that does everything you would do when trading manually. In other words, EA is a programmed realisation of a trading system. Example: you believe that it's time to buy when one moving average crosses another one from top. And sell when its vise versa. EA would do this for you. Also, the purpose of any EA is to minimise the 'emotion' factor. Example: sometimes when you start making losses and its time to close the position, you hesitate thinking that the market will go up again soon (when in fact "soon" you may loose all you have, since the market is always going its own way).

The problem with EAs that well, they can't make wonders. They can't predict future = can't say where the price will move. Again, all they do (= all they supposed to do) is to trade AS YOU WOULD DO MANUALLY. Advantage is that you don't have to sit in front of the PC the whole day.

2. In terms of the stuff you need to learn. Well, if you are a newbie, you simply need to start reading on FOREX. There are a few good books on that. Mainly, I'd suggest to read books on forex basics, on MetaTrader (the terminal, how to handle it, etc), books on Trading Strategies (ex: The Encyclopedia of Trading Strategies, by Jeffrey Owen Katz, Donna L. McCormick; great book, in my opinion) and on MQL4 (the programming language that's used for writing EAs for MetaTrader; in case you want to use EAs, I believe it's essential to know at least the basics of MQL4).

Also, my advise, always make sure you are using the LATEST version of your terminal, when trading/running EAs (refer to my signature).

And finally, refer to www.mql4.com. Great site with quality tutorials both on trading, using MetaTrader and on MQL4.

Jamie please take your time to learn more about trading business.

Don't rush with opening your account for at least 6 month.

Probability of burning it in the same time is 100%.

Not to mention all the sharks or snake oil sellers with their junk.

Even this EA exists nobody is going to sell it.

Consider yourself lucky cos TSD is a place where you can

learn a lot if you are not lazy. :D

Yeah, good point raised.

1. Opening a DEMO account with ANY broker would be a good idea.

2. If you wanna start trading right away, I suggest you open a mini-FOREX account OR if you want a normal account, trade in smallest lots possible.

3. Always set Trailing Stop (TS), on ALL your positions.

4. I also suggest you use Stop Loss (SL) and Take Profit (TP) on all your positions as well.

And well, one thing I forgot to mention, 99.9% of EAs I've seen have a tendency to slip and loose all your deposit. So again, be VERY careful. I'd suggest NOT to allow EA to trade without you being around or at least check it every 1-2 hours, the more, the better.

Well, I ain't no millionaire-expert, but those tips above might help.

Cheers,

Diam0nd.
