Choosing A Forex System


How do you describe Forex systems?  ITs is the key in order to be a succesful and profitable trader.  Technical indicators such moving averages, price, volume and others are at the heart of these Forex systems.. The trader can pick from fully automated to totally manual system, fully automated are often called forex robots, were as in a fully manual system the trader depends on charts and his experience.
The confidence, knowledge and level of experience of the trader will determine the Forex system he chooses..  A trader can also use the services of a Forex signal services that provide entry and exit strategies. The services use the experience of their traders as well as proprietary set of technical indicators and fundamental criteria for trade choice. Here the experience of the trader at this service is the critical element that will determine profitability.
Is there one system that best? The answer is no. Factors such as the traders level of experience and which systems he feels most confident with will determine the one hes ultimately uses. There is an added factor that is important and that is, how disciplined the trader is.  Can he enter and exit trades when he needs to? Can he get out of trade when it goes against him? This will determine to a great degree what type of system the trader will use. The very disciplined trader will be able to use a fully manual Forex system, whereas one that is not is best to go with a fully automatic or semi-automatic one. In trading the system sometimes is only as good as the trader if he cannot follow the rules.
There are many outstanding Forex systems and Forex signal services that can greatly enhance a trader’s performance. But to be successful, as with any other challenging endeavor, he must have the correct mindset to succeed. In future articles I will talk about and evaluate some of these systems and try to give you the reasoning on why they provide value and more importantly produce dependable profits. I have traded for 30 years in all markets and the tools accessible to the trader are better now than ever and keep improving.

Extreme TMA System

The market, like a pendulum, is a never ending sequence of extremes. It forever tries to reach the mean but never succeeds, constantly overshooting it´s mark, reversing and trying it again but always failing to reach balance. This system attempts to capture those extremes. It is a compendium of my understanding of the market, brought to it´s simplest expression. The principles are not complicated. The first indicator, the TMA shows us the average of the path that the price action in the market is following. As such, it is a backward looking indicator and attempts to determine the future from the recent history. It corrects itself by repainting itself. It has two outer bands that show us the outer boundaries of price movement that we are searching for. Our second indicator, the TMA Slope indicator will show us the relative change in the slope of TMA as compared to previous candles.
