As currency trading has become one of the most recent ways of earning money, a large chunk of people take this option just as a hobby. This type of trading is performed by exchanging currency of one country with that of another. Currency trading, Forex trading signal, Forex trading strategy, and Forex alerts have made this industry the largest one if one is to consider its trading volume. To understand it better, let us take an example of an inter-bank trading. Bank X will take the quote from Bank Y of its currency, and Bank Y will provide the present rate of its currency. A deal will be finalized if Bank X will like the rate of Bank Y. and if the currency of Bank X rises against the currency of Bank Y, the former will enjoy the difference as its gain. Likewise individuals deal in the exchange of currencies in the Forex market and act according to the market position.

The Foreign Exchange market is popularly known as “Forex”, which has become the largest and frequently rising market in the whole world. It is also called as the transnational market as any person from any part of the world can enter into this market through the use of World Wide Web. Forex trading signal, Forex trading strategy and Forex alerts are carried out in the faith that the prices of the currency will change over a period of time, and the Forex traders will earn a profit if there is a rise in the value of bought currency and that of the selling currency.  Read more...

There may be dozens of strategies in Forex trading. Let’s just talk about the roots.

Nature Of Market:

Every thing in the universe has its NATURE. So is Forex market. So is every currencies pair in this market. For example, GBP/JPY always moves faster, and its wave range is longer than other pairs, such as a hundred pips during a day or even a hour. EUR/GBP generally waves narrowly several pips only within a day. For American, EUR/USD and GBP/USD like to sleep in day and dance at night. AUD/USD and NZD/USD look like twin, they commonly act in the same style, if one of they goes north, another one does not like to go south. But EUR/USD and USD/CHF are doomed to be enemy, while one of them flies up like a hydrogen balloon, the counterpart mostly will drop like a lead ball. And so on, so on.

Once we find this kind of “Nature of Market”, we can develop and figure out some strategies for particular currencies pairs, just follow their nature, predict their moving direction and range. Then we will get our own trading strategy and system.

Fundamental Trading:

In Forex market, many professional analysts like to use a kind of method to predict the future. It is so-called “Fundamental Analysis”. Based on this method, they develop many kinds of strategies to trade Forex. These are strategies of forecasting the future price movements of currencies based on economic, political, environmental and other relevant factors and statistics that will affect the basic supply and demand of whatever underlies the foreign currencies.  Read more...

The Strategy Paradox (adapted from Michael Raynor)

Welcome to the Strategy Paradox. The Strategy Paradox is simply this — strategies with the greatest possibility of success also have the greatest possibility of failure. The best and most well-managed companies in the world have much in common with the most abject failures in the business world. The same actions and uniqueness that are likely to make one company successful also may be the seeds of its total failure.

You can completely understand your customers, identify reasonable target markets, create (or buy) perfectly viable products, execute your strategy flawlessly, monitor your progress and results, and still fail miserably.

Why? – because strategy is about predicting the future, making assumptions about what is going to be, and making commitments based on those assumptions. If the future you predict is wrong, all of your right actions will still doom you to failure.

There are ways to ensure you don’t guess so wrong that you jeopardize your business:
1) Thoroughly understand your market and your business environment, and determine whether any potential “Market Disrupters” are on the horizon.
2) Create a strategy that has the effect of changing the market in your favor.
3) Create Strategic Flexibility in your business and marketing plans.

The above three ‘tips’ may seem very difficult to do, but they are, in fact, quite doable. Let’s look at Strategic Flexibility now, and the others in future articles.  Read more...

Often during the process of strategy execution, the implementers start getting early feedback that the strategy is way off the mark. This feedback comes from the front lines : from employees, customers, suppliers, associates.

Given a bad strategy, a great execution will only speed up a business failure. What the implementers need is a mandate or a license to kill bad strategy without wasting precious resources and time. However there are reasons why a bad strategy is never shot down before it is too late .

1. Implementation is done by the lowly grunts or junior level managers and there is no process through which the ‘grunts’ or ‘hands and legs’ can communicate their feedback. Even if there are means to relay feedback , the feedback does not have the necessary credibility.

2. Strategy Planners never account for the fact that strategy could be subject to modification or failure during the process of execution . They never go out and monitor/supervise strategy-in-action

3. Strategy is supposed to be a sacred gospel. Devil advocates in senior management who question the strategy during development or execution are usually sidelined and rarely heeded to.

4. Roll out of the strategy is rarely done on a pilot basis. Usually the roll out is organization-wide and commits all the resources at the organization’s command. It is important to learn from lessons from a pilot before a complete roll out needs to be planned. Often top management ego and the fabled ‘need for speed’ comes in the way  Read more...
