Product Description

A straightforward guide to trading today′s dynamic Forex market

Written by Wayne McDonell, the Chief Currency Coach at FX Bootcamp, this book shows readers how to successfully trade the Forex market on their own. FX Bootcamp′s Guide to Strategic and Tactical Forex Trading skillfully explains how to combine popular technical indicators to formulate a comprehensive market strategy. Readers will then learn how to focus on using this information to create a tactical trading plan––one that will help them pull the trigger to get in and out of a trade. Along the way, McDonell takes the time to discuss the various challenges a Forex trader faces, such as greed, fear, loss, and isolation. As a Forex trader and educator of traders, Wayne McDonell knows what it takes to make it in the competitive world of Forex. And with FX Bootcamp′s Guide to Strategic and Tactical Forex Trading he shows readers how.

From the Inside Flap

In The Art of War, renowned military strategist Sun Tzu states, "The general who wins the battle makes many calculations in his temple before the battle is fought. The general who loses makes but few calculations beforehand." While this observation comes from one of the oldest military treatises in the world, it′s an important piece of advice for traders looking to win in today′s dynamic Forex market.

As the Chief Currency Coach at FX Bootcamp, author Wayne McDonell helps clients around the world excel in the Forex field by training them to develop and execute a trading plan with military precision. Why does this approach work so well? The answer is simpleâ trading Forex is similar to war in that they are both zero–sum games, and in Forex trading, this means that one trader′s gain can only come from another′s equivalent loss. So, outthinking your opponent is essential to victory in both of these arenas.

Divided into five comprehensive parts, The FX Bootcamp′s Guide to Strategic and Tactical Forex Trading puts this competitive market in perspective and shows you how to achieve success within it. This reliable resource opens with a detailed look at the technical indicators you′ll need to use in your trading endeavors. From here, you′ll discover how to combine these popular indicators to formulate a comprehensive strategy and learn how to use this information to create a tactical trading planâ one that will help you pull the trigger to get in and out of trades.

Besides introducing you to a proven Forex trading methodology and showing you how to improve performance by running your trading operations like a business, this book also addresses some the most important psychological aspects of tradingâ including greed, fear, loss, and isolationâ and discusses what you must do to overcome such obstacles.

In Forex trading, patience and discipline are just as important as technical and fundamental analysis. With The FX Bootcamp′s Guide to Strategic and Tactical Forex Trading, you′ll discover how developing positive trading habits and the right trading skills will put you in a better position to profit over the long haul.

I liked the book very much and it is up-to-date. The author writes well and offers many tips. The only criticism is that the chart diagrams are poor. So many moving average lines that are not labelled or even explained. Little thought was made to how they would appear in black and white format. Wayne - point your editor to Tufte's 'Visual Explanations' for some inspiration!

One of THE best Forex books on the market. Starting out you will find you need bucket loads of time watching this thing called Forex before you have any idea about trading it. When every trade you make is tanking, its difficult to stay with it. Reading this book, I finally had straight forward answers and identified all my bad habits. Wayne's years of experience, starting from scratch just like myself, became my own in a matter of months. My understanding of Forex and trade ability increased ten-fold.

This is a comprehensive education, covering multi timeframe technical analysis and the fundamentals of the global currency market. Relationships between currencies, economic news, international stock markets and commodities are all shown to you and explained well. Most importantly, you learn what it takes to trade. You learn to be self reliant and organised. You'll also learn a lot of interesting facts about the world. You may start giving advice to people on housing prices and the state of the economy. There's no shoddy magical system being sold in this book. What it comes down to is the only way to learn Forex is from an expert, and this guy is a great expert to listen to. FX is tougher than you might think, but luckily this book is awesome.

excellent read 19 April 2010
By theoni
Format:Hardcover
I cannot stress how much this book has helped me. I am a novice trader trying to make out any sense of forex trading from online reads but had no grasp idea on how to trade until I read this book. I also bought forex for dummies but it was a little more complicated, I will read it again after I have finished this one. The diagrams are poor indeed and there is no way you can make sense any out of them but it provides a good idea on
1) how to identify when the market is trending and what tools you should use when it is(and it isn't!!)
2) what is fundamental analysis and how to use it
3) how to use techninal analysis
4) when to trade.

Again, I have to say I am a novice trader this is why I find all these helpful because all you read online is to use some strategy but noone tells you why to use THESE indicators and what their moves mean! The book doesn't go in depth in any of the points discussed but I find it to be introductory anyway, so if you already are familiar with the former skip it and find an intermediate level book. If however you are trying to make any sense of the forex market like I am this is definately worth reading.
