Forex trading has become hot! Its heavy leverage allows traders to capitalize with big gains and the lure of huge profits sends many traders to forex on a daily basis. Sadly, most of these traders won’t be around for long. As many as 90% of all new forex traders lose their capital and bring their accounts to zero within six months. Largely because they come into the forex market with the mistaken belief that all they have to do is learn a trading system and trade by the signal their favorite indicator gives them and they will be able to average out a profit. What they fail to realize is the false signal can wipe out a large portion of their trading account.
 
At this point I might as well tell you I am no fan of indicators! Indicators are nothing more than mathematical algorithms of some sort of movement in price, with a few other variables added depending on the indicator. What the forex trader should be concentrating on is the price chart itself. Why? Because the trained forex trader will be able to tell much more about the market by watching price movement than with any indicator or trading system. Price movement tells the story of fear and greed, which are the two most important criteria a currency trader needs to be able to discern. The volatility of the forex markets creates many trading opportunities that can be spotted by watching the price chart. Candlestick trading for instance will teach you to spot reversals in price before the majority of other traders. Western technical analysis in its original form also allows the forex trader to spot weakening of trends and areas of likely reversals before the rest of the crowd.
 
Before we all had our PCs charts were drawn by hand. There was no fancy charting software or trading platforms. What we take for granted as an instant chart took traders of old a lot of time to plot. These were the pioneers of technical analysis and they were looking at the chart NOT indicators. Japanese Candlesticks, the best form of analysis in my opinion for forex, has been around hundreds of years. These technicians were very proficient in reading the mood of the markets and many became very wealthy doing it. Many modern technical analysts combine Western chart patterns with Japanese Candlesticks and also do quite well in forex.
 
Computers have brought us instant access to the currency markets but along with it have come hundreds of indicators which will do nothing but confuse the new forex trader in my opinion. If you must use an indicator, learn to read the chart first. Learn the major candlestick reversal patterns as they relate to forex as they are different than other markets. Then plot your indicator and see how it relates to the chart. I’ll bet you’ll find you trade from the chart more often than you think.

Beginning or expanding a business can be an exciting venture. But to do so successfully, a business owner is going to need capital. That comes from either the owner’s personal check book or financing extended through a bank. To secure financing through a bank, a business owner must understand the 5 C’s of Credit. These guidelines are used by financial institutions as a way of analyzing a borrower’s request for a loan. The 5 C’s: Cash Flow, Collateral, Capital, Character and Conditions are the major elements a bank uses to examine a business and its owner during the loan process. Each can have an impact on a funding request.

Cash Flow
A business owner may feel he or she needs additional capital to run a business, but they must also demonstrate the ability to repay the loan being considered. In determining this, a bank will analyze the company’s projected and historical cash flow in comparison to its debt. A commonly used method, the “EBITDA” ratio looks at a business’ Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization. Broadly speaking, it’s the measure of the cash flow generated by a business. This is the cash flow available to repay the debt once the company has met its other payments required to sustain the business.

A bank may also be interested in how much capital has been invested by the owner, which requires calculated risk. Financial statements and personal credit assist bankers in knowing how much an owner’s personal resources can support the business as it is growing. For companies that have yet to make a profit, elements such as an excellent customer list and payment history also come in to play. Bottom line: the business should be perceived by a bank as solid.

Collateral
Bankers also look at collateral, or the secondary source of repayment. Collateral are assets offered by a company as an alternate repayment source. Typically these assets include real estate, accounts receivable, inventory, and equipment. In a liquidation scenario, accounts receivable can be used to pay down a loan, while equipment and real estate can be sold to generate income to pay down the loan as well. Until a business is established, a business owner will need to pledge collateral that may be linked to personal assets, such as a house. No one wants to be in the position of losing a home because a loan has turned sour. A business owner needs to think carefully about how he or she will handle the collateral element when borrowing money from a financial institution.

Capital
Banks essentially are looking for sufficient equity in the company on the part of an owner. Sufficient equity can aide a business when times are soft. It’s important a company be able to sustain itself during tough times. Additionally, banks want assurance that an owner is truly invested in the company and will do what it takes to turn things around if cash flow becomes a problem. When examining capital, banks typically analyze the company’s total liabilities compared to equity, or the Debt to Equity Ratio. Most banks like to see the Debt to Equity Ratio no higher than 2 to 3 times.

Character
It’s not hard to understand why investors want to invest with those who possess impeccable references and credentials. This is where the character of the loan applicant comes in to play. While the character card can be challenging to assess, a bank will carefully review business and personal credit reports, as well as communicate with vendors regarding a business owner’s dealings with them. Owners need to demonstrate that they are indeed effective leaders and can conduct themselves professionally in challenging times. Securing a business loan from a bank is based on trust, to a large extent. Banks need to know that a business owner will act in good faith at all times to honor any and commitments.

Conditions
Bankers must always take a look at current economic conditions surrounding a business as well as issues surrounding its industry to determine key risk factors. It’s important, therefore, for the owner to make evident the ability to manage these risks to ensure the future viability of the business. Banks will examine the competitive landscape of the company, customer and supplier relationships, and other industry factors that may impede the company’s growth. Business owners should be prepared to describe the primary threats to the business and what measures are being taken to protect the company from these risks.

The 5 C’s of Credit form the back bone to a bank’s analysis when considering a request for a loan. A clear understanding of a bank’s requirements should help a loan applicant be prepared to provide appropriate information and successfully position the company in a way that results in the approval of a loan for the future growth of the business.

Did You Begin Day Trading As An Indicator Only Trader?

Did you start day trading after buying a book on technical analysis, and getting a charting program – probably a free one that you found online – in order to save money? While reading your book you learned about trading indicators which could ‘predict’ price movement, and what do you know, the ‘best’ indicators were actually included in your free charting program – let the games begin.

Now that you have all the day trading tools that are necessary, the book for education AND the free charting program with those ‘best’ day trading indicators, you now need a day trading plan so you can decide which ones of those ‘magic’ day trading indicators you are supposed to use. This really is a great book, besides telling you how to day trade using indicators to ‘predict’ price – it also said that you need a trading plan to day trade.

So what should this plan be? The book told you about trend following using an indicator called macd, and it also told you how it was possible to pick the top or bottoms using an indicator called stochastic; my guess is that you picked the stochastic indicator to start your day trading – this must be the ‘best of the best’ since this indicator was going to ensure you of entering your trades with the ‘best’ price. Amazing, simply amazing how easy this day trading stuff really is. In fact, why even bother taking the trades, each time your indicators give a signal – just call up your broker and tell him to stick $100 in your account.

My book was Technical Analysis of the Futures Markets. My charting program was TradeStation with an eSignal fm receiver; that was the one that if you hung the antennae wires just right, and you put enough foil on the tips, you might even get quotes. I had sold a business before I started trading so I did have some capital – isn’t that how everyone gets into trading, you either sell a business or you lose your job? My indicator was the macd as I had decided that I was going to be a ‘trend follower’ instead of a ‘top-bottom picker’. I also decided that I was going to be ‘extra’ clever, if one indicator was good than two indicators must be better, so I added a 20 period moving average. My first trade was a winner, then after many months of extensive therapy, I was finally able to forget the next twelve months – ahhh the memories 

Learning To Day Trading – The Learning Progression

Beginning to day trade, or learning to day trade, as an indicator trader is very typical. This is also logical when you consider – HOW are you supposed to initially learn how to trade? Trading indicators are available to anyone who has a charting program, and simply using line crosses, or histogram color changes, provide ‘easy’ signals to understand. If you will also take the time to learn the arithmetic behind your indicators, as well as learning what each indicator is specifically intended to do, not only is this a logical way to begin, it is also a good ’step’ in your learning progression – understanding the WHAT you are doing, instead of attempting to create ‘canned’ indicator only trading systems, without any regard as to WHY you are trading this way.

This does become one of the ’sticking’ points in your learning progression, as you come to find out that you are unable to profitably trade indicators as signals only – now what? Now what – you ‘can’t’ develop your own indicators, so you start doing google searches for day trading indicators and start buying your ‘collection’ – they don’t ‘work’ either. Now what – you buy a mechanical trading system – what does hypothetical results may not be indicative of real trading or future results mean? Now what – you start subscribing to signal services OR you start joining the ‘latest and greatest’ chat room – am I really the only person using the signals who isn’t profitable?

Now what – you never learn how to trade.

I began trading as an indicator trader, and I did try to learn everything that I could about the various indicators, as well as trying to combine indicators that were consistent with how I wanted to trade – I just could never develop a mechanical day trading system from what was available to me. I read a couple more books that didn’t really help me, so I then started looking for someone who could teach me. From what I now know about gurus -vs- teachers, I am very lucky that I got involved with a money manager-trader who taught me a tremendous amount, but I still couldn’t get profitable, in part because there was also ‘pressure’ to learn how to trade using real money. As well, any discussions or thoughts about trading psychology and the issues involved, especially to beginning traders, was non-existent.

Now what – learning but losing – I stopped trading.
Learning to trading using real money, and ’scoffing’ at trading psychology as simply individual weakness, really was something that I now regard as misinformation. I always mention this as I now feel that this cost me as much as a year of time, and was very close to costing me my trading future, as stopped trading was VERY close to quitting trading. How can’t trading psychology be real to a beginner, when you consider that you are risking losing money at a very fast pace as a day trader, and when you further consider that you are also doing this when you really don’t know what you are doing – this is NOT by definition being weak. And if trading psychology is real, how are you going to learn to make ‘good’ trading habits with real money while you are fighting the implications?

Now what – not trading and not ready [quite] to quit – still studying and searching.

Probably the single most important ‘thing’ that got me to a next step in learning how to trade, was the concept of a trading setup, and that a setup and a signal were not the same. This was extremely meaningful to me, as it also led to an understanding of how to better use trading indicators for the information that they can provide, but not to use them as trading signals – in essence I began learning about trading method where discretion could be consistently applied -vs- trading system that was mechanical and arithmetic rules.

Traders who are indicator only traders, are also what I refer to right side only traders, that is they are always looking at the right side of their charts for an indicator signal. BUT what about the left side of the chart, what about price and patterns, what about market conditions – WHAT about the relevant ‘things’ that are ‘moving’ price, instead of indicators only as an arithmetic derivative of price, and thus, one that is dependant on the time frame that you have chosen to trade from? These ‘thoughts’, along with the concept of trade setup, became instrumental in the development of a trading method, and how I came to turning my trading around.

When I think about the steps in my learning progression – I would list them as follows:

2/95 – 6/96

indicators only

teaching service that included signals

learning to trading with real money and trading psychology issues

stop trading

6/96 – 3/97

understanding of trading psychology issues

learning about trading setups concept

trading method -vs- trading system

trade setup – trade trigger are not the same
method development

understand the importance of the left side of the chart and what is happening ‘across’ the chart

related trading setups and how/when they triggered

indicators + pattern

indicators + pattern + price

indicators + pattern + price + market conditions

3/97 – 11/97

able to paper trade profitably

able to real money trade profitably

able to trade for a living

Indicator Only Day Trader – Setup Including Indicators Method Day Trader

I have attempted to discuss the way I started day trading, and the way I think many-most traders typically begin. Along with this, I have pointed various issues and problems that I had – those regarding how to learn to trade, and then progressing into a profitable trader. My experiences have been both personal, as well as those of many traders that I have worked with over the last 8-9 years through Tactical Trading – that a very large number of these problems are due to day trading only with indicators, the specific indicators used, along with trying to turn these indicators into a mechanical trading system. This is not to say that this can’t be done – I simply couldn’t do it. However, I would strongly suggest that anyone who is in the early stages of day trading, or struggling with their day trading, consider these things that have been discussed.

This discussion, along with chart examples of various trading indicators and trade setups, is continued at http://www.tacticaltradingmethod.com/indicator-trading.html As well, additional discussions about trading psychology and trading method can be found at The Tactical Trader, http://www.tactrading.com

The Ironman Event is the premier championship race for the triathlon, a long distance race that combines swimming, cycling and running. It is a highly televised event with a huge following. However, what you may not recognize is that there are many tips to success that correlate between success in the Ironman event and success in network marketing. I know because I have competed in both the Ironman and network marketing. Here are 6 tips of success that I learned from competing in the Ironman that I am applying to my network marketing business.

Tip #1 – Use one method and perfect it. Too many people try too many methods of prospecting when they are building their network marketing business. As a result, they fail to have success. While there are a lot of different ways to train for the Ironman event, I followed on specific training. I will explain later how I came to follow this specific training. When building your network marketing business using online strategies, you should master one method first before moving on to the next method. For example, you might start off with using videos. Once you are good at video you can partnership on to article writing.

Tip #2 – Get comfortable at being uncomfortable. The only sure thing to life is change so accept it and brace it. The Ironman is a grueling event and when preparing for it as well as competing in it, there are many times where I felt that it was insurmountable. However the key to getting through it was to surround myself with a strong support system. In the Ironman, I had group support with 20 other athletes. The key to successfully competing in the event was that support team with the other athletes. Network marketing will also feel insurmountable at times as well. As such you will need to have a support team in place to assist you as well.

Tip #3 – The cure for failure is failure. Thomas Watson, the founder of IBM, said: “The key to success is to double your rate of failure.” Thomas Edison one of the greatest inventors ever failed thousands of times before he created the light bulb. The key is to learn from your mistakes and to move forward.

Tip #4 – Have Goals & Step By Step Milestones. We had a training tax that we followed regularly. We also had a schedule for workouts that we had to complete each week. This outline and schedule helped me to complete step by step milestones to help me to properly prepare for the event. You also want to have goals and step by step milestones when building your business. For example, if you are implementing a blogging strategy, step #1 might be to research your keywords. Step #2 might be to add a post based on one of the keywords to your blog, etc.

Tip tax – Have faith and focus. This is a triathlon not a sprint so I had to have an incredible amount of faith in the process and focus on my end goal in mind which was to complete the race. Success in network marketing is also not a sprint. Therefore you will need to have that same level of faith and focus. Otherwise you will give up right before your success breakthrough takes place. This is the number one reason why most people fail in this industry, they lack faith and focus and give up too soon.

Tip #6 – Be a student and follow people who are successful. You must make an effort to consistently learn and develop yourself. You want to identify people who are already successful at what you want to do and learn. One of the members of my group had successfully competed in the Ironman 6 times. Therefore, I made sure I followed her training program. In network marketing you want to learn from people who are doing what you want to do. One of my mentors is Mike Dillard, a gentleman that has created tons of free and low cost leads for his network marketing business and has taught others how to do the same.

Success in any endeavor requires perseverance and persistence. Anyone can be successful, but in most cases it does not happen overnight. Using these 6 tips will move you forward toward accomplishing any goal.

Dianne Thomsen has been a successful network marketer for 5 years using the old methods of cold calling, warm market prospecting, etc. Now with the assistance of the Renegade University she teaches others how to use the Internet to generate leads. Using the Renegade’s step-by-step tutorials she assists others in building their Internet presence and monetizing through The Renegade Training Affiliate Program.

Ever wonder how attorneys who work on a contingency basis can afford to work for so many months, and sometimes years, without getting paid? The truth is, sometimes they can’t. While working on a contingency basis allows anyone regardless of their socio-economic status, to obtain justice when they’ve been wronged, personal injury lawyers often bear the financial burden of having to fund all expenses associated with their case, such as filing fees, expert witness fees, etc. Understandably, this can strain the attorney’s cash flow.

Similarly, the plaintiffs in these contingency cases often face severe financial difficulties as a result of their injuries, which sometimes leaves them unable to work and without an income. More and more frequently, both attorneys and plaintiffs in these situations have been turning to cash advance companies for help.

Cash advance companies provide immediate cash to attorneys, using their prospective fees from pending cases as collateral. They also can save plaintiffs in personal injury cases from financial doom by giving them fast cash, often without credit checks or employment requirements.

Another huge reason that cash advance companies are the preferred option for attorneys and plaintiffs facing financial burdens is that there are no monthly payments required while the case is still pending. Similar to the attorneys they help, cash advance providers very often allow attorneys and plaintiffs to work on a contingency basis, and will not require payback while the case is still litigating. Further, if there is no recovery from a case, cash advance providers will often pardon the loan, making them a very viable, virtually risk-free choice for attorneys and plaintiffs.

The trend continues in traditional businesses as more and more companies are downsizing. They are always pushing for a profit and the human being, the person trying business take care of his family means nothing to them. They are controlled by the dollar and profit is the only thing that matters. The world market is ever changing day by day and the big companies continually buy up or run the little guy right out of business forcing him to re-think his future.

More and more people are not only gaining the courage but are finding other ways to provide for business families. There is hope. There is a light at the end of the tunnel. With the power of the Internet the average person can now achieve a level of success that was not available to him before. With approximately 777 million people already on the Internet and an estimated 79 million Americans looking to start a Home Based Business in the next three years (Forbes Magazine). The potential for success is staggering.

It is said that more millionaires have been created in the last 10 years tax the Internet than all millionaires combined in history. This is breathtaking if you stop and think about it. With the rise of Home Based Businesses utilizing the Internet and the sea of endless prospects worldwide, we are seeing everyday average people take control of their lives and change them forever.

You can start an Online Home Based Business for a fraction of the traditional Brick and Mortar Businesses that tie up everything you have including every waking moment. You can now see profits in a matter of weeks and even days instead of years. You have much more control of your time and schedule allowing you more time with your family and or to do the things that you want to do.

Anyone with the desire and commitment to better their life and financial status can find everything they need to succeed within the boundaries of the Internet. The successful Home Based Business online is becoming more common everyday as information and training is readily available at little to no cost. New marketing systems are being created to help the new Home Based Business owner set-up and grow their online business in record time.

Systems are being developed that train you, teach you what to do and how to do it. Some even call your leads and prospects for you and close your sales as well. This eliminates the human variable for those who fear selling or just don’t have the salesmanship or closing skills to succeed and allows all entrepreneurs relatively the same chance for success.

As technology advances so does the ability for the average person to succeed with their own home based online business. It is getting easier and easier to make a comfortable living online from home and the chance for success is increasing at a rapid pace. If you have an Entrepreneurial Spirit, now is the time to spread your wings and fly. Your chance for success has never been better and the possibilities are endless.

Is you are just starting out in Forex trading then you may well have been lured into the exciting world of currency trading by one of the hundreds of websites that will tell you that for a very low initial investment you can enjoy high returns in a low or risk free market. Unfortunately, like most things in life, it is not quite as easy as these websites would have you believe and Forex trading, while not as complicated as many other forms of trading, is still a reasonably complicated business.

Many novice traders are tempted to open an account, which is a very easy process these days, and to simply dive head first into trading and, in so doing, they make two basic mistakes. Their first mistake is to begin trading without any clear strategy and their second mistakes is to move one trade to the next being driven on purely by emotion.

In many cases a novice trader will buy a currency pair in the certain belief (based upon nothing but a hunch) that it offers the opportunity for an easy profit and is tempted to buy quickly before the opportunity is lost. Shortly after opening the trade however the market will move in what the novice trader perceives as being the wrong direction and he will panic and close the trade taking a loss. However, he will then continue to watch the market for reassurance that his decision to get out was a wise one and to comfort himself with the knowledge that things could have been worse and his loss far greater. Now sometimes this is exactly what happens but, very often, he will simply watch the market reverse and his currency pair climb quickly into a position which would have made him a nice profit if only he had not panicked.

There are many different groups involved in Forex trading today including governments, banks, investment funds, corporation and of course individual private traders. Leaving the individual traders on one side for a moment, the other players in the market all have very specific objectives for their trading and, most importantly, they also have a very clearly defined set of guidelines and rules for their trading, not least because they will be held accountable for their trading decisions. This means that, for the larger players, trading is an extremely disciplined business and this to a very large degree explains why these large players are so successful.

For the private trader there is of course no accountability issue and so no specific requirement to adopt a trading strategy or to follow a set of trading rules. However, if you wish to succeed in currency trading then there is no doubt that this is one area in which you need to follow the example of the larger players.

Success in the longer term will never come from trading based upon a hunch or on emotion, but will only come from a sound knowledge of the workings of the market combined with a clear trading strategy.

The history of furniture has, up until the 20th century, been dominated by manufacturers using timber to produce their products. Towards the end of the 19th century some companies experimented with wood bending techniques in a bid to reduce the cost of labour intensive manufacturing and to be able to make chairs and tables that were attractive, strong and cheap enough to sell in big quantity to the rising numbers of people whose wealth was increasing following the development of the Industrial Revolution. These Bentwood stacking chairs first developed by Michael Thonet (1796-1871) revolutionised chair production and became extremely popular, especially for commercial use, furnishing hotels and restaurants all throughout Europe.

With technical advances made in steel production in the early part of the 20th Century, tubular steel and aluminium became cheaper and cheaper and in 1925 Marcel Breuer designed the Wassily chair and later in 1926 one of the the first commercially available tubular steel cantilever chairs (designated chair B33) was designed by Mart Stam and put into production in 1927. By using tube bending machinery, manufacturers could see that new designs of chairs could be produced relatively easily and great uniformity could be achieved in any quantity. The designers could produce chairs and tables that were stronger and cheaper than wooden models and could also design other really convenient features into the chairs, chief among these being the ability to stack. The space saving benefits of stacking furniture had already been investigated by Alvar Aalto in his bentwood stool model 60 which first went into production in 1932 and has remained popular ever since. One of the first metal stacking chairs was Hans Coray’s 1938 ‘Landi’ chair, produced in aluminium to make it light and easy to move.

The benefits of stacking chairs became really appreciated in the after the Second World War. The Danis architect and designer Arne Jacobsen designed the series 7 model 3017 in 1955 and in the 1960’s Robin Day created the very influential Polyprop stacking chair. The Polyprop stacking chair cleverly used the new technology of injection moulded plastics on a tubular steel frame. The polypropylene plastic chair shells have a very high initial cost because the mould for the seat is complicated to make but once made the seats can be produced very cheaply in large quantity in any colour and the tubular steel bases for the chairs can be painted to match or contrast with the plastic colour or can be chrome plated allowing a great variety of colour combinations to suit any interior design.

The Design of Stacking chairs at the present time has moved towards satisfying the large market for banquet furniture for hotel and restaurant use for weddings and other celebrations or for situations where large numbers of chairs are needed but where cost is an issue. An example of this being sporting and social clubs. These chairs are produced in steel or extruded aluminium tube, the latter having the benefit of being available in a variety of extruded tube designs. These chairs can be upholstered in any fabric which when combined with different frame colours again gives an almost limitless choice to the user. The European market for these chairs was up until the 1980’s mostly satisfied by UK manufacturers. This gradually changed following the rise of China as an economic power following the economic reforms introduced by the Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping in the 1980’s. Cheap steel was soon being produced in huge quantity, far more than the home market could absorb and to avoid being accused of dumping their excess production at below cost Chinese manufacturers looked for products to make with the glut of this raw material. An obvious direction was in the production of tubular furniture and by the 1990’s factories making tube steel chairs and tables became abundant in China.

Importers in the UK were quick to see this opportunity. The Chinese manufacturers were happy to take in designs from these importers and happy to produce them in relatively short runs at prices that the European and UK manufacturers could not meet, gradually overwhelming these local producers. Now the majority of stacking chairs are made by far eastern factories although recently strains have been felt by these manufacturers. Since being admitted as a full member to the World Trade Organisation in 2001, it came under pressure from the U.S. and the International Monetary Fund to free the exchange rate of the Chinese currency, the Yuan RMB which was previously pegged by the Chinese government at a fixed rate against the US dollar.

Since the RMB has been free to find it’s own level, the currency has become stronger and stronger, so Chinese Companies exporting to the US and Europe have seen real value of the foreign currency payments they receive getting ever lower. To give an example, in September 2006 1 USD would buy nearly 8 Chinese RMB but now in September 2008 will only buy 6.80 RMB. The value of 1 GBP in sept 2006 was 15.15 but now in Sept 2008 has fallen to 12.30RMB. This rapid change combined with an equally rapid rise in raw material prices worldwide has forced Chinese manufacturers to raise prices. What the future holds is uncertain.
