By Charles on Tuesday 1 June 2010, 16:29 - My first steps into Forex
Long time I have not been into Forex anymore... until last week, when my friend decided to talk about it again with me. He convinced me to open an account with IBFX : I will let you know if there are significant improvements compared to my previous experience...
This time I'm looking at Asian currencies. First results : next week.

Feeling a bit awkward when playing my first dollar, I've decided to start again from the beginning thanks to Forex Guides. After a few Google searches, babypips.com seems to be the best web site to start with.
Why ? The school section is a must have for me to read AND understand. Back to the beginning...

My first transactions are on EURUSD, which seems to be the most popular pair.
EurUsd The EURUSD pair confirmed a previous support at 1.4100 before an impressive intraday bull run to 1.4380 levels – confirming the 61.80% retracement support at 1.4115 levels from the bullish move started Sept 11. Breaking initial supprt at 1.4250 and settling at the end of day on the 23.60% retracement at 1.4340. Initial support seen at 1.4280, then 1.4180. While upside resistance at 1.4500 which then leads the way for 1.4800 levels – end of August Levels.
I read a few news (see above), USD seems to go up : unfortunately, I've lost 876€ in 1 hour... (between 2 and 3 in the following chart)
What do you consider as the best strategy for me : work on quick (<1h transactions) or longer ones ?
More details to come

When discussing with a friend on Forex, I discovered that he was already trading on-line too !
He recommends me this useful video : "Hey my friend, let's learn a bit the basics by yourself, we will discuss strategies later..."
So let's go !

I have found numerous daily market reviews on the Internet like this one, but still I wonder whether they are useful or not, especially for novices. Do you use them ? What do you think ? For now I think I will focus more on tutorials...
They look professional, but are they really 
?

First step for me to enter the Forex world : choice of a trading platform.
So I spent some time on the web, looking for articles and forums for Forex beginners and power users. To start, after understanding the main principles, I have decided to download Demos from two of the main Fx web sites :
Let's have a look on Alpari Meta Trader 4, which is easy to install and to start with.
I have €10.000 (play money ) to start with.
To be continued, I will tell you more about my first days shortly...
