pepy Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 signal will help many traders, and also that will help newbie too who just start, and they can apply that signal in real account to gain real profit for them, and that help to make my trading more efficient but it seems that will only make people gain profit not to gain knowledge, so it is up to the users want to use it or not, so far i spend about 3-6 hours.

RodWell Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Well, scalping give us quick money but i think there is very much risk involved here if suddenly market goes against us .anyway i also trading 5 to 6 hours and now i am fixing the time zone because i seen there is not much movement all the time and its better to trade any particular time.

Jeremi Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 It depends on the trader strategy. for me it is not certain how long I spend time for trading, as long as I'm still there with my laptop, then trading will continue, to this day I still do it and I'm almost a full day trading.

humanhope Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Actually i am not able to give a lot of time in learning practicing demo trading yet. Since i am still trying to learn the basics and doing some reading. Maybe i can increase my time spend on demo trading soon after i have gained more knowledge. But for now i am doing more reading.

budado Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 I only spend few hours a day. depends on the market situation. If the market goes side way I usually spend more time online hoping I can spot a breakout. But if the market is going strong bullish or bearish at least I know when to open a position and when to make good profit. I do hope that in every three weeks I can make good profit in forex without any problem at all. This is what I'm trying to focus right now.

sakai Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 I think that it is better to train your skills in the demo account first, even if not proficient should not need to force to go into a live account, because it's useless later only going to spend your money only. Because I'm pretty experienced with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodWell Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 You have always to take your time in learning; you can watch videos in youtube I was doing it with some indicators I couldn't get. Always take notes of those indicators with its setup and components; anyways my knowledge in forex is not that superb because I am also in the process of learning more.

pacifist Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Forex is a high profitable business. I haven't joined forex yet. But i joined i will not spend too much time in forex because too much work makes me boring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepy Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 @pacifist: you are not even forex trader? well i think it is better as newbie you spend more time in forex trading but remember not overdo it, i prefer to start trading for 3-4 hours each time i have mood to trade, so far forex is not main job so i can trade as long as i feel i want, but for professional it is a different thing.

budado Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 I only spend about three hours more or less total in one day. I do open my account four times a day more or less depends on how volatile the market is. If the market is so volatile I usually make good trade and make good income and that means I spend more time. But if the market is trading side way I only update my account in two to three times a day only and spend time doing other things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riddick09 Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 Thus, you are either just leaving your trades with the either stop loss or take profit. Yes, we don't need to spend long time here unless that's our main business that we need to have profits daily and we must do to make it always winning as we've made of big investments. Still the trade time will depends on our decision if this will be safe or will be advantageous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samar Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Actually I am not too much hours to spend in forex market. Sometimes, i will spend 2-3 hours and sometimes I could spend more than 4 hours daily. That's all depending on my activities that day and that will depend on market's condition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

humanhope Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 About me, I spend about four hours researching and spend another four hours trading. Usually I spend 24 hours if I feel continuous trading. I just put my stop loss all the time. I just close my account and when I wake up next morning I check for changes and I just revalue my assessments and change what ever necessary.

Samar Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 I just take a position and keep it running until either my stop loss or take profit is hit. In this way, I don't have to keep monitoring the markets. I do check the market from time to time to check if either my TP or SL has been hit. Once it has hit, I look forward to take another position and do the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodWell Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Well, traders will be unable to control their own luck and what they can do is keep to enrich their knowledge about forex and experience in trading. With that, trader will able to predict price movement more accurately and execute order more logically. Ignore the luck factor and keep stick with the factor that able to make traders success.

sakai Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I think if you don't have much spare time to trade, it good to trade with long term, even though mostly used by expert trader, but often the profit is good too. If we only have special time to trade yea scalping is the best choose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forexfighter Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 I am not a full time forex trader, I have to spend most of my time on my work and hence trade Forex only as a aprt time business Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
euro Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 I spend about three or more hours on it. It will depends if I have time or not. If I have time, I will spend a lot of time looking at trends and see if there are way to make a good trades. I spend a lot of time reading news and watching the chart more than I do trading. I will not trade unless I see an opp to make a profit. I guess I can control myself so this is a great thing. I guess that is due to the fact that I don't use it as a main source of income. I think people who use it as a main source of income spend way too much time on it to try to make money and its bad sometimes like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenBendre Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 You can be online 24 hours if theirs no right movement. You don't open a position. You wait for your indicators to go green before you open a position. In forex trading its no like posting in ptp that you open a site you post for two hours and that's it. Patience as well as we can determine when it will have good spot to trade and monitor well. As far as I experience there is no specific time we can trade or open position.

HarryPotter Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Well, about my own condition, mostly I trade about 1-3 hours per day, if i beat so much, i will just stop the trading and if i already reach some good target that i already set from the first time i trading in forex, but i see some trader spend about 6 hours to trade.

Samar Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 I hardly spend 2-3 hours monitoring forex markets however I do trade 24 hours a day. My strategy includes taking a position using technical indicators and trend and leaving it until it doesn't hit my TP. In this way I don't have to keep monitoring it every time. Once my TP is hit, I opt for a new position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sakai Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Well, I am a swing trader and I also trade on intraday basis and considering the time I spend on this is not more than two hours a day on average. It is a known fact that some traders are scalpers and for such traders, they need more time to forecast on daily basis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I have to spend most of my time on my work in the daylight, so i just spend less than three or four hours on forex per day, now I choose long term to trade. if you don't have much spare time to trade, it good to trade with long term, even though mostly used by expert trader.

StillAlive Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I am not a full time forex trader; now due to getting some time now may be more 5 hours or more everyday although most of the time is loss. Scalping gives us quick money but i think there is very much risk involved here if suddenly market goes against us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
