Market Neutral Forex Options Strategies

Expert: John Jagerson, Founder at Profiting With Forex
Moderator: Maud Gilson, Conference Manager

Summary:
Some options strategies allow traders to remain neutral about market direction. In this webinar, John Jagerson will go into more detail on two specific neutral options strategies for forex traders. These strategies make it possible to make profits in the forex without having to accurately predict the right market direction.

The first is a strangle option spread. John will show you how to find the right strike prices, how to enter the order and when to enter the trade based on market volatility or upcoming news. The second is a short straddle spread. This strategy has more risk but even better odds for a successful outcome. Short straddles and long strangles each have unique benefits and can not only help you control risk but can help you take advantage of the market when a trend is not easily identifiable.

Emerging Market Currencies

Moderator: Maud Gilson, Conference Manager

Summary:
Everyone is familiar with the forex "majors" and even most of the large crosses but there are great trading opportunities in emerging markets. Don't leave these opportunities only to stock traders; currencies and yields are moving fast in these young economies and this is a chance to start to understand the forces that affect them the most. In this webinar we will look at developing Asian and Latin American currencies and some developing opportunities in Eastern Europe.

Trading Intermarket Relationships

Expert: John Jagerson, Founder at Profiting With Forex
Moderator: Maud Gilson, Conference Manager

Summary:
No market exists in a vacuum. Breakouts in one exchange or market will have ripple affects in others. Sometimes these relationships will lead each other or clarify opportunities in other markets. Because most of these relationships are indirect they are inherently inefficient, which is great for forex traders. In this webinar John will walk through three different relationships and how they can be turned into trading systems or trading signals in the forex and vice versa.

1. Oil and the Loonie
2. Treasury yields and the USD
3. Gold prices and the Aussie
