With "Chartology", you'll be sitting in the front row as I discuss price action analysis, market cycles, chart pattern setups, optimal trading time and volatility analysis, as well as the psychology behind price action. Put these tools together and you're looking at how to begin mastering the charts. In fact, be sure to watch the "Your Forex Questions Answered" video here.
Every day, occasionally more often, I'll additionally discuss order entry, U.S. Dollar Index, crude oil, gold, and the Dow. Forex trading allows and requires a viewpoint that goes beyond simply analyzing the pairs. I'll explain in detail how I scan for trades — I call it "triage" — how I set up trades proactively, and how I manage entries and risk. Trading isn't all that diffcult but the process of finding your tools and approach and trusting them is. So here's your front row in my trading office, thanks for reading, let's get going!

The USD/JPY got everyone's attention but for me this was mainly follow-through from last week's pullbacks. I don't want to scramble in with everyone else - I'd rather build a position on corrections when I have a trend. Read more
Last week there was a move in comm-dolls that suggested that there may be strength as Japanese yen flooded the market looking for yield. Of course that all comes tumbling down - for now - but could that play reemerge? Read more
There are three ways that a pair can land on your radar and not so coincidentally, there are three ways that you need to analyze/understand a pair too! Read more
...I like to build trades around a single currency. In this way I can attack it from multiple angles (multiple pairs) where I can best take advantage of strength or weakness - preferably a trend. Read more
I outline the process I go through to see if the volatility is something that leads to a trade entry. You see I am not trading the volatility for the sake of the movement alone - I am MORE interested in where that price movement leads the pair. Read more
These last two weeks my open trades list has been active. It's easy to get caught up in simply managing the positions and not think about making sure that when I eventually scale out of these trades I will have others to enter and manage. That's why it is so important to have an active RADAR. Read more
I wanted to share my outlook on my current positions as well as what I am looking to add as the FOMC and RBNZ events approach. This is where I get ready for more volatility and deeper corrections of trends and price movement ranges on the higher levels of the hourly range. Read more

Learning what makes a pair less desirable to trade is a skill that every trader must know and with that in mind here's a video I recorded today on that very topic. Read more
Today's Dow weakness did a number of things for me not the least of which is get me flat as I saw the YM (Dow futures) tumble through 13,100. Read more
Oftentimes there is so much emphasis on the entry that the management is often not discussed enough and we all know that without a OLSID exit plan (stop loss AND profit targets) the wheels can fall off the wagon on a trade... Read more
This is a webinar I recently did and I think there's plenty here for both the new and experienced traders to benefit from. The idea is to be honest about mistakes I made very early on in my career and to share points that are not the usual "mistakes" that are often discussed. Read more
I sound a little like Buzz Lightyear fro Toy Story but I don't want anyone thinking that the trades I outline in today's video are only for the RBNZ event... Read more
Today in the Forex in the Morning chat, I had a question about "scalping" and how that fits in to a trader's strategy. Ah, not an easy question when trying to categorize what market trend "scalping" fits into but it is a style that many traders employ so in this video I explain what it is and what environment it is best suited for!

After NFP, is risk appetite done? Some near-term follow-through is expected, but with both the dollar and the Dow in sideways choppy market trends, how long 'til the pessimism and selling pressure come back in? Read more
