Swing trading forex
Hello,

I'm still relatively new to trading but have come to realise swing trading is my preferred method of trading as it fits my risk profile and my time available to trade.

Having just finished Marc Rivalland's book, it's left me asking whether it is possible to swing trade the forex market, as he doesn't mention this in his book.

Is anyone able to shed any light on this?

Much appreciated.

Paresh

Yes, I do.

Take your time, keep your risk small until you learn the characteristics of whichever pair you choose.

Paresh started this thread Hello Shadowninja,

Do you employ Rivallands methods or something similar? And if this is too personal no need to answer, Are you successful in trading the currency market through swing trading?

I may have misread what you asked. Ooopsie.

I just do basic swing trading that you can read any where. Identify a medium term trend, buy in dips, hold until you feel it's turning. Yes, I am succesful. I just swing EUR/USD but decide for yourself which one feels right for you.

Swing trading can work very well on Fx pairs - pick one or two and stick to them until you know their character etc.. The market can be very revealing! I strated with the EURUSD too.
good luck
