It seems like there are hundreds of new traders getting involved in forex trading every day, and many of them are trying to find some kind of short cut or 'hack' to make it easier to learn. And even though trading is risky, there are still plenty of people happy to take those risks because the chance of making lots money are so high when you get it right.
Naturally, one of the most important requirements if you want to trade profitably is having a proven trading system to follow. Your system will have parameters and rules that tell you when you should get into, and out of, each trade. Since there are hundreds of forex trading systems around, it's critical that you do some research and digging before you choose the one for you.
In the end it doesn't matter which trading system you choose, there is every chance you'll lose money in the market on some of your trades. Nothing can guarantee you'll make a profit, especially at the beginning of your career. But one tool that is held up by a lot of traders as a way of ensuring success is what's referred to an Automated Forex System.
An Automated Forex System comes with an automated trading robot that makes currency trades for you so you don't have to sit there and watch the market. In other words, the robot works on autopilot, buying and selling currencies, based on pre-determined formula programmed into the system.
I know what you are thinking - this sounds like a good idea for making trading easy. It means that in theory, all you have to do is check your robot trader every now and then to make sure he's working properly. Over a period of time, your account balance will get bigger all on it's own, without any decisions or input from you. And they only cost $100 or $200. Boy that sounds like a good idea doesn't it? Yes it does, in theory...
But let's have a reality check. What are the chances that somebody would sell a piece of technology that really made money to you like that for such a low price? Who is going to share that kind of power - the power to make money trading the forex market without you doing any work? NOBODY! (I've already checked).
Here's the facts. Forex Robots, at least the kind that we have access to inexpensively, simply don't work. Make sure you don't fall for the 'our forex trading robot will fix your financial problems' line. Now obviously there are hedge funds, private traders and institutions that have million dollar automated trading systems that work well for them. But they are not the same 'forex robots' you'll see selling online for a hundred dollars. Just doesn't happen.
The only real way to make decent money trading forex is to learn from a trader who knows how to teach you. Then get a free demo account from a broker and practice using that system until you can confidently trade the market. There IS no shortcut shorter than that. Find a good trader who's willing to share what he knows, follow that, and you might just succeed as a trader.
