If you want to do anything new in life, you have to first learn it. The same principle applies to forex trading. Forex trading without proper learning and no education is a sure recipe for disaster. If you want to trade forex than you need to first understand how the forex markets work.

I remember I used to be very fond of playing tennis. The whole day, I would wait when I would enter the tennis court in the evening. In the beginning, I was not a good tennis player. By buying a tennis racket or a golf set, you do not become a good player. This is only the first step. You have to make an effort.

The whole day I would wait when evening would come and I could play tennis. I would do wall practice. So, I would practice and practice. Sometimes, I would play with my coach.

Everyday before entering the tennis court, I would imagine myself playing very well. Every defeat would strengthen my resolve to win. In six months, I had started defeating the good players who in the beginning did not consider me good.

Becoming a successful forex trader should be your dream. Learn everything you can about forex. Practice and practice! Dont rush.

Your forex training should start by taking a forex trading course that digesting it in full. First prepare yourself only then enter the battlefield. You need to understand a lot of thinks before you start trading forex.

The most important steps for you to grasp is to how to identify the behavior of the market at a certain point in time. You can only do this by learning Technical Analysis.

Learn what the lagging indicators and what are the leading indicators. Lagging indicators depend on the past behavior of price action. Leading indicators predict the future likely course of the prices in the market.

Grasp how support and resistance works. You should have a pretty good knowledge about EMAs, SMAs, MACD, Bollinger Bands, ADX, etc. Pivot Points are used by many successful traders to determine entry and exit in the market. Understand the use of Pivot Points.

Understanding the principles of money management is must for you. Do not put more than 1% of your account on a single trade. Many traders overlook money management but it is the thing that will determine your long term success.
