Trading the forex market has become one of the most popular forms of trading, mainly because of its twenty-four-hour access and the fact that there is always a bull market available in this arena—a concept that is rather attractive today. But what if you don't want to become a full-time trader? What if you just want to spend some time trading because you already have a job you like? Or what if you're just looking to make a few extra dollars every month trading on the side? That's where Forex on Five Hours a Week comes in. With this book, author Raghee Horner—a top forex trader and trusted teacher of trading systems—distills her forex strategies into the most streamlined systems possible, and shows those with little time to dedicate to the market everything they need to know to capture consistent profits. By sharing her extensive experience in classic charting techniques, price action, and market psychology, Horner enables traders and investors of any skill level to quickly capitalize on, and make money from, the forex market. Page by page, she lays out a blueprint for fitting forex trading into your current schedule and skillfully addresses how to analyze the market, use visual and objective tools, and formulize a successful trading plan. Along the way, Horner also covers many other essential elements of this discipline, including focusing on the right indicators and set-ups, working across multiple time frames and pairs, and understanding the role of individual financial centers. Successful trading shouldn't be defined by time, but more importantly, by results. With Forex on Five Hours a Week as your guide, you'll learn how to execute successful forex trades without spending every waking hour in front of a computer screen.
