Full time intra-day Forex trader

Dear trader,

Intra-day trading the Forex market is a tough business. The majority of intra-day traders lose money, and the reason for that is because of poor trading timing.

Most of the traders think that following a successful system is enough to make money in Forex, but that's far from truth: you must have a successful system and you must trade it at the right market timing!

They key-words here are volatility and momentum... If you have the momentum on your side you can successfully trade Forex in just two hours per day!

"Volatility" is often regarded as a negative word in the Forex lingo. Let's face it: most people fear volatility. They think volatility equals to unnecessary risk, even gambling!

But let me actually turn that around: there's is nothing more dangerous for an intra-day trader than a flat market lacking any momentum whatsoever! And here is why: the longer a trade crawls around without taking off in your direction, the greater the chances that such trade will fizzle away mid-way through! You want to have a high momentum wave backing up your trade to push it forward towards your final target!

That's why timing your entries properly is crucial for short-term traders..
