Understanding MACD Divergence

Understanding how to interpret a MACD divergence can be very helpful for you in trading. Do you know what does a MACD Divergence means? Just that the current price trend is running out of steam. It soon may reverse direction. However, price reversal may not happen right away. But a MACD Divergence is a powerful hint. The market is changing direction. It is easy to spot MACD crossovers and dramatic rises. Not so a MACD divergence. Spotting a MACD divergence will only come after practice.

Suppose the price is making a series of higher highs. MACD is making a series of lower lows. What you are looking for is when the price action and MACD do not agree. Something is wrong between the two.

Most probably the traders are getting nervous and slowly fading out of their trades. MACD divergence is seen as a sign that fewer and fewer traders are in the trend. No one is trading against the trend and yet fewer and fewer traders are in the trend.

The only traders in the trend are nervous. They are likely to exit their trade at the first sign of trouble. So if MACD is diverging from the bullish trend. As soon as the bears muster up enough guts to short, the bulls will exit and the bears will take over.

There are two powerful keys in locating times when MACD divergence is likely to represent a reversal in the price action. This is exactly why MACD divergence is so powerful. It takes time to setup. However, when it works, it often works well.

Suppose the price action is at the double tops or double bottoms. MACD divergence can be powerful. You spot MACD divergence at this point. This is known as Exhaustion Pullback. You are making your trading plan based on the bounce/reversal or breakout of the support and resistance (S&R).

You should trade now based on rejection reversal. This is a sign that the price action is running out of steam. This indicates that there are not enough committed traders to break the support and resistance (S&R).

MACD is also used as an overbought/ oversold indicator. When you see that it has reached its overbought/ oversold range and the price action is turning normal, this is a signal that you should avoid trading at this time.

Dont think that the currency pair is overbought and everyone is buying. However, when the price reaches its extreme, you will see price exhaust and the MACD line drop back into normal zone. Dont confuse the overbought/ oversold MACD zones as trade opportunities.

Divergence can not only be found on the MACD line and the signal line, it can also be found on the histogram. You should note this important point. The two situations described above along with your other technical indicators can provide excellent trading opportunities to you. Master MACD divergence!

Learn About Forex Megadroid

Every month it seems as if some company is releasing another trading robot. And all these robots are packaged the same way, telling traders that they genuinely want to help them and theyll be able to do so by giving them the right trading picks. The newest of these trading robots is the Forex Megadroid which was released just last March 31, 2009.

But is Forex Megadroid just another one of those general trading robots or is it finally different?

For one, what sets Forex Megadroid apart from the countless automated stock picking robots out there in the market is that it uses present trading information to base its trading patterns to and then tweak it appropriately after its assessments. This is all so that it can come up with results that are more accurate and allow you to earn much more.

What the old trading robots did was to simply analyze past foreign exchange market information and then trade according to its assessment. Since it isnt aimed at the present conditions, these old trading robots have a considerable margin of error when it comes to its picks.

The brains behind Forex Megadroid are John Grace and Albert Pierre, experts in forex trading with over 30 years of experience under their belt.

And indeed Forex Megadroid is one of a kind; it utilizes RCTPA (Reverse Correlated Time and Price Analysis) technology which is a first among all trading robots. Due to this, Forex Megadroid is a lot more accurate as compared to the trading robots out there, beating them with 95% accuracy.

Forex Megadroid is also one of the few trading robots that have a user friendly interface. It is a plug and play software and its users only have to follow the simple steps provided in the installation guide to get the software up and running in no time.

Forex Megadroid has even allowed its users to test the program without having to risk any money at all. Forex Megadroid has a virtual money account for everyone who wants to try out the program. It even comes with a $100 virtual cash.

For all that it only costs $97 and you can have a refund within the first 60 days if you think you wont make profits with the program.

Getting A Currency Trading Education

When you are talking about getting a currency trading education, most new traders to the currency markets usually dont get it right. After all, how else could you explain the statistic of 95% of all currency traders will end up losing a lot more money than make. Yet they come back for more. Which is strange because if there are that many people losing money, why are there that many currency traders to begin with?

Well, I can tell you why that is. The reason they get into trading is because they want to be part of that elite 5% who get to do this for a living. There are the kind of currency traders who don’t have to be woken up by alarm clocks just so they can get to a job that they hate. Despite this, there are so many new traders who don’t take trading education seriously. They are risking their own hard earned money, however they play around with a lot of useless trading tools.

Give me another reason why forex expert advisors are being so sought after.

If you are one of the few people who don’t know what expert advisors are, they are essentially a software script which will trade the currency market for you. You put the script in a charting platform and it proceeds to trade the market automatically for you. This means something else is trading your money on autopilot.

This is the perfect example of a useless trading tool.

What would you think if I said that other professions had some machine to do all their work for them, like a doctor or a lawyer. Sounds pretty ridiculous, doesnt it?

Don’t you think if trading was really that simple, then more traders would be having better success? All traders would have to do is find the “best” expert advisor on the market, and they will be rich by the end of the week, right? I hope you sensed the sarcasm.

This business is no different than any other business. If you want success in the currency trading market, you are going to have to stick your nose in there, and truly learn and understand the ins and outs of the market, and stop wasting your time on the useless tools.

Diversification Lets You Keep Your Shirt

Every time the stock market plunges like what’s happening lately, I’m thankful that I’m diversified.

Today:
The Dow – Down 2.35%
Nasdaq – Down 3.35%
S&P 500 – Down 3.06%

Yet, my portfolio is down only 0.38%. No, it has nothing to do with good stock picking, nor perfect timing since I didn’t make any trades today. The only reason why I’m doing better is because I’m diversified. For the most part, everything was down but my bigger holdings, a few defensive stocks, didn’t flinch at all.

When diversification comes up, I hear this a lot “But I need the capital to make trades”. Yes dear, but when the market tanks, diversifying is the only protection you have against a total wipe out.

It’s not just me saying this. I know you watch all these so called “professionals” and they talk about buying this and selling that, but if you look at everything they own, you will notice that the majority of their assets are in a diversified portfolio. They do it to manage their risk.

Sure, having more capital will give them a higher chance to make even more, but it also exponentially increases their chances to go broke. To them, it’s called “risk management”. I urge you to do the same.

If you are just starting out, I can understand why you feel the need to put all the capital you have saved up to buy that one stock. If you are at this stage, then I suggest waiting until you have saved more money. The market isn’t going anywhere, and having more capital to play with will also give you more comfort in making calculated and unemotional investments. The easiest way to lose money is when you bet big on any one security and it goes the wrong way. You can either learn the hard way or just listen to people (like me) who’ve already made those mistakes for you.

It’s rough out there. Don’t be stupid and throw everything in one basket
