AUDUSD short now or later. upto youThis one has recently broken below 38% weekly fib level in Blue and come back up. What's happening currently? nothing much it's just a fake recovery after a big fall from .75 to .70 level. So either this is an opportunity to sell now or may be with more patience sell this after it reaches to 50% to 61.8% Pink Fibonacci level from 8 hours. Honestly I see this falling way below to 50% Fibonacci level Weekly in Blue. Any alternative path? Please share your opinion. Let's learn together.

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year 🎄🎁☃️ Hey traders, That year was one of the hardest ones in my trading career. And I can not even tell you what has changed exactly. Just it looks like this trading year was a bit different: the markets were simply reacting to key levels in a bit different manner, the price action patterns were not that accurate & volatility was insufficient. I tell you that just to let you know that if you were struggling this year with your trading, you are not alone. We are in the same boat and the only thing that makes us stay afloat is the fact that we never give up, we keep going no matter what. We know that at the end of the day we are always the winners. And winners win. Next year, be a winner, be strong and consistent and the magic things will happen with you. Merry Christmas.

What Type of Trader Are You? 🤔 Hey traders, In this post, I decided to make a comparative analysis of three main trading styles: scalping, day trading, and swing trading. We will go throw the main pros and cons of each approach and discuss common misconceptions. 🏃‍♀️🏃 Let's start with scalping. I guess many of us were impressed by videos on youtube showing how a guy makes thousands of dollars applying a simple scalping strategy. Some of these videos get millions of views and excitement from the audience. No surprise the majority of newbies start their trading journey with scalping strategies. Practicing some of them and trading on a real account, these traders suddenly realize that the youtube videos barely reflect the reality of scalping. Scalping requires being extremely reactive, making trading decisions quickly, and constantly staying focused. Moreover, it turns out that this trading style is extremely risky, and occasional losing streaks become an essential part of the process. A pro scalper usually opens dozens of trading positions per day and manages many of them simultaneously. Even though it is a fact that a solid scalping strategy is a true cash machine, the constant pressure and high level of stress make many traders leave that game blowing their trading account. A true scalper is a guy with iron nerves and a sharp mind. It takes many many years to become a person like that. 🚶‍♀️🚶Intraday trading is a bit simpler. While quite often scalping gives a trader just a couple of minutes to react and make a trading decision, intraday trading gives the hours. Such a trading style is slower, the intraday perspective is not that chaotic and irrational. It takes many hours for the trading setup to play out making the trade management process not that time-consuming. Moreover, intraday trader tends to open much fewer trading positions than a scalper. Analyzing primarily 4h/1h time frames less trading setups meet the entry conditions. That primarily affects the potential gains though. Lesser you trade, the less money you make. I consider myself to be an intraday trader. Trading full-time of course I was trying different scalping strategies, but I must admit that I can’t make the decisions that quickly, I can’t constantly hold so many active trading positions in my mind, I need some time to think, I need some time to do other things, I want more freedom. For that reason, intraday trading is my choice. And let me be frank right here: I am not trying to say that intraday trading is simple, it is SIMPLER than scalping still remaining extremely complicated to master. 🕴🕴 If you want trading to become your side income if you have a full-time job and just a couple of hours per day for charting, I believe that intraday trading/scalping are not appropriate for you. In your situation, I would consider swing trading. Swing trading is extremely slow. Being primarily focused on weekly/daily time frames a swing trader tends to hold trading positions for weeks, sometimes even months. Moreover, it takes many days for a swing trading setup to form and the market gives a trader much time for reflection. Of course, that primarily affects the potential gains: I believe that among the 3 trading styles that we discussed, swing trading generates the lowest returns. Swing trader is the best starter for newbie traders. Analyzing higher time frames they can constantly follow the market and don’t miss the major moves. Just 1-2 hours per day are enough to follow dozens of financial instruments. Only by becoming a consistently profitable swing trader, one can try himself in intraday trading. Working with hundreds of struggling traders from different parts of the world I realized that the majority has the inverted perception of scalping/intraday/swing trading. I hope that this article will shed a light on that topic. What trading style do you prefer? ❤️Please, support this idea with like and comment!❤️

COMPOUND INTEREST. Time is on your side📚 ❗️As it turned out, not all traders are familiar with such an important concept as compound interest. Meanwhile, the use of compound interest in trading can be a very effective tool for making a profit. In short, compound interest is the accrual of interest on interest, and if in detail, then read on. ✅The formula for calculating compound interest has the form: Compound percentage = (P (1 + g)^ n) – P, where P – the amount originally invested; r – interest rate; n is the investment period. Let's say you invested an amount of $ 10,000, every year the interest received is added to the principal amount, and new interest is accrued for a larger amount. If the investment period is 5 years, and the interest rate is 10% per annum, then after the specified period, taking into account the compound interest, you will receive a profit in the amount of: (10000(1+0.10)^5)-10000=6105.1$ And without taking into account the compound interest, the profit for the same period will be: 10000*5*0,10-10000=5000$ As you can see, using compound interest (or in other words reinvesting profits) brought additional income in the amount of: 6105.1-5000 = 1105.1 $. ✅It seems that the figures presented above are not impressive, but the use of compound interest in trading can truly work wonders. In what way? Let's take another look at the compound interest formula described above. It is obvious from the formula that you can increase profit by increasing any of its components. Let's not touch the amount originally invested, but play with the value of the investment period and the interest rate. To begin with, let's imagine that we will reinvest the profit not every year, but every month. Then the investment period will be 12 *5 = 60 months. The interest rate corresponding to this investment period will be equal to: 10%/12=0.833%. Let's substitute these values into the formula for calculating the compound percentage: (10000(1+0.00833)^60)-10000=6449,8$ As you can see, under the same conditions, but with monthly reinvestment of profits, the income will already be $ 6449.8- $6105.1 =$344.7 more. Well, if the trader's income is not 0.833% per month, but, for example, 5% monthly, then under the same conditions and for the same period, the profit will already be: (10000(1+0.05)^60)-10000=176791,86$ Felt the difference, impressive, isn't it? And what if you reinvest profits not monthly, but daily? Let's figure it out. With an average yield of 5% per month, the average daily yield will be 5%/21= 0.238% (here 21 is the number of working days in a month). The investment period will be 5*360=1800 days. Let's substitute the data into the compound interest formula: (10000(1+0.00238)^1800)-10000=711617,5$ This is already 711617.5-176791.86 = 534826 $ more than with monthly reinvestment of profits. More than half a million dollars (and this with an initial investment of only ten thousand)! That's impressive. That's what compound interest is in action. ⚠️This is about theory. In practice, it is impossible to achieve a constant percentage of profit every day. Some days a trader inevitably ends up with a loss, some with a profit, and the size of these losses and profits is always different. So it is unlikely to substitute the value of the percentage of profit per day in the above formula. However, the very essence of compound interest, clearly shown above in figures, gives the trader a fairly powerful tool for earning. A trader can and should use compound interest when creating his own money management system. ❤️ Please, support our work with like & comment! ❤️
