Should You Really Have To Pay To Learn Forex Trading?

By James Kupe


If you want to become a profitable forex trader then you are going to have to pay for your education in one of two ways. There simply isn't an 'easy' way to get started, although there's plenty of people who are willing to sell you a 'Forex Trading Robot' with the promise that you'll make a bunch of money without having to know anything about trading. I don't think so.

So let's get to the two REAL ways you can get started and build a reliable trading business. The first way is to try to work everything out by yourself. The cost of this method is the time you spend figuring it all out, and the losses you incur while you are getting started.

If you can keep the losses during this learning phase small, you can probably spend the time needed to teach yourself how to trade. Or you might just blow up one, two or even more trading accounts, and give the whole thing away. But the biggest problem with this do-it-yourself method is you're burning through a lot of TIME. And time is something most of us are never going to have enough of. You can easily make more money, especially trading the forex market, but you are never going to be able to make more time.

The second (and for most people, the best) option is to find someone who has been through that learning curve for you, and then buy, borrow or license their trading system so you can use it yourself. If you've spent a considerable amount of time and/or money trying to get good at something in the past, you'll know which option you should take. So what can a forex trading course teach you that you can't learn for free?

Well first of all, the forex market is a highly evolved and complex beast. There are many different factors that affect the way the market behaves, so there are lots of things to be analyzed and understood before you dip your toe into the market. That means that anyone who tries to trade based on some free training they found on Youtube or in some 'Guru's' email messages is entering into uncharted territory, completely unprepared for what is about to happen to them.

A trader who has a history of helping others learn to trade can teach you everything you need to know about building a profitable business. You will learn how to use the different tools and indicators in a way that will give you an edge over other traders. And your edge is the most important factor in becoming profitable in this business.

You can learn a lot about stop loss orders, leverage, slippage, and the other stuff associated with forex trading for free - this is all very general in nature. But a good forex course will teach you how to understand where all of the pieces fit together and show you exactly how to profit from whatever the market throws at you.

So while your success or failure as a trader will ultimately depend on what you do with the information and training you receive, getting that knowledge from somebody who's got a proven track record in the market gives you a much higher chance of being successful yourself. And that kind of knowledge is never free - you have to pay for the real secrets to this business. So don't be afraid of buying a good forex trading course. It will more than repay you in increased profits and less stress if you go out and use what you learn.
