The market goes up and it goes down. You would logically think when it goes up
I will buy and when it goes down I will sell.
The big question is how do you know when it starts to going up and how do you
know when it starts to going?
When you throw something into the air how do you know when it is going to fall?
There are a few things you need to think about when you throw something into the air.
•   Is it going straight up and how fast
•   Is it going sideways and how fast
•   How far will it go in the direction it is going
Think about a chart. You want to catch the trade when it is just taking off.
When trading you need to think about the same things you do when throwing something into the air.
•   Is it going straight up and how fast
•   Is it going sideways and how fast
•   How far will it go in the direction it is going
Some strategies require you to watch them 24 hours a day. Many people think they can look at the
market 10 minutes a day and become rich. Which 10 minutes do you watch the market. You might
find that you are looking all day for the right 10 minutes, ignoring the true essence of trading. This is
all done in an effort to make it easier to trade.
We have talked about which direction, how fast, and how far. How much time might be required.
It does take a little time each day. The larger the time frame you trade the less time is required to
spend trading.
The larger the time frame the more currencies you can trade, the more trades you can have on at
one time and the earning potential is greater. We have found if you have more trades on you worry
less about the one that is negative. When you take good entries you will have more positive trades.
When you use proper tools, like alerts and trading groups, using the same system, to bring things to
your attention you will find trading to be much easier and takes less time.
If you use indicators that give you heads up as to when the market is slowing and starting to turn then
you will find you are spending even less time looking at the computer.
