Following these tips in demo mode will mean you are learning something handy and passing the time without being nearly convinced to jump into a real trade when the conditions are not right. First it’s very important to check the currency exchange calendar. Perhaps the troubled market is a reaction to something similar to antagonistic reports in 2 different states. Something like that may have some weird effects and it’s better to leave the market alone for a couple of hours.

Check the support and resistance lines. Are they converging? This can mean that a breakout is coming. You can place orders outside of the range of the lines, a buy order in case the price breaks much above the lines, and a sell order in case in breaks below. Use another pointer to check for an oversold or overbought marker as a 2nd signal. Consider whether there are any other related currency pairs and if that is the case take a look at what is happening with their costs. Do they support your proposed trade? For instance, there’s typically an inverse link between EUR/USD and USD/CHF, so that when one is falling the other will rise. EUR/GBP and GBP/CHF have an inverse relation too.

It is vital to exit as fast as your profit target or stop loss is triggered. So don’t become distracted, but watch the market scrupulously. Foreign exchange currency trade secrets in a unsettled market are always going to involve short term trading.
