Automation is in the world of currency forex online trading truly the lazy mans way of trading the forex. And it’s a very clever thing to do it this way. Why? This way you are able to beat your biggest conqueror, You!

But be careful, after 6 years of FX Online Trading, I’ve been probably through all the pitfalls that this industry has to offer, which was sometimes a very hard lesson to learn. But what if you don’t want to make all these experiences yourself? So what makes the difference between the winners and the loosers?

There are some points that are absolutely key to your success!) with online forex exchange trading or simple, FX. So here they are:

How to become a successfully currency forex online trading expert

The 5 basic rules

1. Never trade with money you can not afford to loose. Never!

2. At no time, you should be invested with more than 3% of your account balance, your Stop/Loss has to secure this. Crucial!

3. You have to begin with demo trading first. One month is an abolute minimum for this (the majority of automated FX.)

4. Only switch to real or live trading after a minimum of one month profitable trading (should be at least 20 trades, the more, the better).

5. After finding a profitable FX Trading Software, always take portions of the newly earned capital out of the account and let the rest accumulate. Take half off your profits out of the account and let the rest grow further.

If you start and follow these simple basic rules, you have a good foundation in place. It’s as simple as that. You can be one of those 5% of profitable traders who make a killing in fx online trading.

How to find a profitable FX Software?

That’s no easy thing to achieve. Normally you have to test dozens of systems to find one that is really profitable. Don’t get me wrong on this one. The majority of system developers will tell you that their system is able to make you very rich, but normally that is more a fantasy than a fact. To tell you the truth in advance, most of the systems will not make you any money. I’ve tested now 89 automated FX online trading systems myself and barely could come to break-even.

The platform most of the automated FX Trading Software Systems use is the MT4 or Metatrader 4 platform. The programs where named Expert Advisors (EA’s). EA’s are simply some piece of Software that tell the MT4 Platform when to trade, which currency pair and how to trade it.

There are thousands of internet sites where you can get related information. But I don’t want to overwhelm you with too much info. That beeing said, I will go straight to the point of interest:

5 Rules to find an automated FX Trading System that really works

1. If an EA is only advertised with “back tests”, it is nothing you should spend your time and money on. The back tests are only an indication for the system creators if their development is heading in the right direction.

2. You have to look for live testing or forward testing results.

3. A live stream with all the transactions/trades should be provided by the person/company.

4. The robot should be easy to use with predefined settings with an integrated update service. And mostly overlooked, because you don’t want to spend more time optimizing the settings then trading for real.

5. And finally: A Money-Back-Guarantee for the Trading Robot.

That’s all there is to it. If you only follow these guidelines, your way to the top of the fx traders is well planned.
