If you're new here, you may want check out the hottest Forex topic in 2008 - Autopilot Forex Trading. Thanks for visiting!
I just started trading Forex pairs and I need to be able to collect price data for the last 10 time periods (hours, days or weeks) so that I can input this information into my trading platform to give me an idea on where the price of the currency pair will move next. Can anyone tell me how to get this info into my yahoo finance page so that it updates with the movement of the currency pairs? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!! Patrick
ANSWER: Hi Patrick, I haven’t seen a solution to capturing and recording actual prices for the past X time periods. You can dowload the data from piptrader.com. A better solution might be to have a programmer crank out an EA for you that would do that for you. (I am surprised that the solution that you are using didn’t think of that as part of their application rather than request you to enter 10 sets of data into a calculator). I pretty much accomplish the same thing by simply monitoring a couple of moving averages and watching for them to to cross and both maintain a steep angle. This indicates the possible beginning of a reversal. I would be happy to send you a summary of the moving averages that I use and how I use them. It might be interesting to compare this to the signal that you are getting from your K-F calculator……and it is free. Paul)

Check out what Chris had to say about the Simple Forex Killer Strategy posted earlier.
When i first used the above strategy it seemed i was losing a lot more more money than i was making but i found when i stated using the same strategy but only with the daily chart instead of the hourly i now am seeing pretty good profits. I set up my trades at 9:30am (US central time) and only use currency pairs with GBP or USD in them (excluding GBP/JPY and USD/JPY). Its only been about 2 weeks but my $5000 demo is up to $8700 only losing one trade for $1200 so it seems to be doing pretty well. I’ll be sure and post if anything changes. So thanks to the admin for a good strategy.
For those of you using the strategy, be sure to try it on the daily charts as well. Thanks, Chris!

How can one trade forex in a manner that least resembles gambling– over what period of time can one see some logic to a forex trade? Who are the main players that govern the price levels of currency and what effects do individual traders have? how do hedge funds trade currencies? Does technical analysis really work? The idea of of using tech analysis seems so silly–what is the theory behind it? Any additional information you may have, I’d really appreciate.
ANSWER: The currency pairs move in the direction of the trend, you anayze trends and it will help greatly, expecially the larger trends, short term moves within the trend are based on news items and parallel and inverse analysis. Here are some technical papers to read: http://www.articlealley.com/article_152420_19.html http://users.search-o-rama.com/Article272207.htm You can also monitor support and resistance with price alarms. http://www.easyarticles.com/article-62743.htm Good luck with your forex joyrney.

Here’s a simple forex trading strategy using Forex Killer that can be used by everyone, even newbies.
1. Choose a day between Mon - Thurs for trading. Avoid Fridays.
2. Choose a time to trade. Recommended time is the overlap between London and New York markets, which is 1pm - 5pm (GMT) or 8am to 12PM (EST). The currency markets tend to be most active when market overlaps.
3. Open a 1hr chart for all the currency pairs available in Forex Killer. Try to avoid volatile currency pair such as the GBP/JPY or USD/JPY. Export the price data for all the currency pairs into a dedicated folder on your PC.
4. Select a currency pair, open Forex Killer and load that currency pair data into Forex Killer.
5. Configure Forex Killer for the appropriate timeframe, decimal, currency pair and press Calculate.
6. Check the short term and long term signals generate in Forex Killer. There are 2 things to look out for:
a. The short term and long term signals must match. ie. Either both Sell or Buy.
b. Look at the probabilities below each signal. One of them must be above 70%
7. Now, look at the chart for the currency pair, EUR/USD. The daily trend on the chart must match the signal given in Forex Killer. If your signal is in the direction of the trend, then and only then do you enter into a trade.
8. Set the Take Profit and Stop Loss values given in Forex Killer. Additionally, set a 35 pip trailing stop for your order.
9. If the above criteria don’t match up, don’t take the trade. Try another currency pair and repeat steps 3 - 7.
10. The next day, at the same time, check on your open trades. Do not close any trades until they are closed by one of your preset stops or take profit stops.
11. Repeat the above steps daily to look for new trades to enter.
As always, try out the above strategy on a demo account first to familiarize yourself. Thanks to Daniel from FXreviews for this great Forex Killer strategy.
