MONTHLY WEBINAR: Strategic & Tactical FOREX Trading (Part 2)
Expert: Wayne McDonell, Chief Currency Coach at FxBootcamp
Moderator: Maud Gilson, Conference Manager
Summary:
A trader with a SMART PLAN for every trade, a trade plan based on solid analysis before they pull the trigger, has a much greater survival rate on the long-term. Reacting to the market is a simple game of chance. This may work for some traders on the short-term, but eventually, their luck runs out.
Planning a trade in advance allows a trader to gather intelligence and formulate a strategy before they execute the tactics of getting in/out of a trade according to the plan. The benefits to learning how to plan your forex trading are immediate. First of all, you stop making stupid trades. Second, you make less trades. Lastly, you end up making the same types of trades repeatably, which means you can trade with this methodology throughout your career and not rely on your gut instinct or a flip of the coin.
In Part 2, Wayne McDonell will help Premium Members of FXstreet.com apply the SMART PLAN methodology to the live charts.

Dear Wayne,
I am new to Forex. I have invested about 1000 hours,(on top of running my own exterminating business, and another part time job) reading, studying charts,and devising trade plans on the weekends, which resulted in failure in live demo trading. I stubbled on these video's a few weeks ago, and applied all the MA's to my charts.
All I can say is WOW!! And thank you so very much I have spent another Sunday watching your video for the sixth time, and sure enough, I picked up another key point. My trading has gone from 3 in 10 positive trades, to 6 and my other 4 are either break evens or small pip losses.
Thanks to you, I will be trading my real money next week with humility and confidence.
When I get my 38 foot yacht...it will be named the "Wayne"
Sincerely, Bill

Again, I have another very succesful trade in the over night Asia Session on EUR/USD. In the past I would have gone long instead of, now logical, short and wonder what I've done wrong. Please accept my sincere thanks Wayne.
Sincerely,
Bekir

I just took the monthly seminar and it was exceptional! I thank you very very much! I really learned a lot.
Question: How do you calculate the M1 - M2 pivot points?
I use a pivot point calculator but it does not factor the M's.
Thanks again!
Kem
Posted by: Kem Stralka | 06/12/2008 at 02:24
Hi Kern, the M pivots are simply in the middle of each of the Support and Resistance pivots. For example, M1 is in between the S2 and S1 pivot points.
FXstreet.com has a free pivot calculator... make good use of it! http://www.fxstreet.com/forex-tools/pivot-point-calculator/
The formula is such:
Pivot = ( High + Close + Low ) / 3
Resistance1 = 2 * Pivot - Low - Normal Trading Range
Support1 = 2 * Pivot - High - For The Next Period
Resistance2 = Pivot + (Resistance1 - Support1) - Extreme Trading Range
Support2 = Pivot - (Resistance1 - Support1)
Resistance3 = High + 2*(Pivot - Low)
Support3 = Low - 2*(High - Pivot)
Therefore, the M-lines are the distance between Pivots, divided by 2.
If you join FX Bootcamp, we'll show you how trade with them. We do it live everyday from the London open util the New York close.

Hi Wayne,
I am new to your live sessions and have just completed absorbing your excellent 2 hour video.I have taken many seminars and lessons and your session is by far the best I've seen. It is very impressive, detailed and clear. The only hiccup is the pivots and R S and M. The formula is clear, but does GFT provide this with their charts - I could not find them?
Rafiq
Posted by: Rafiq | 06/13/2008 at 05:14
Thanks Rafiq,
You are right, GFT does not offer the pivots you see in the video. What is see is a proprietary plugin owned by FX Bootcamp. We give the code to members who fund a live account with GFT or who upgrade their membership to Annual.
Not only do our pivots map the M lines, but they also measure fibonacci levels. FX Bootcampers look for over laps of these pivots and fibs, what we call "Fibots". We find them to be very important levels in our trading.
Again, thanks for the great feedback. We put a great effort into your success. If you can't afford to become a member of FX Bootcamp, you'll still have a ton of free resoruces we've made available to you on FXstreet.com

best seminar I've ever seen. And this all knowledge is for free?? Give me a break... There is so many great ebooks for 0.99$ ... ;)
Bill wrote earlier: When I get my 38 foot yacht...it will be named the "Wayne".
That means, that there will be at least 2 yachts named "Wayne". And You will be allways welcome on board! :)
thank You very much for your effort, Prefessor Wayne!
Posted by: simon sikorski | 06/28/2008 at 00:06
Thank you for the great feedback Simon, but I have a suggestion for you... buy a jet plane and name it "Wayne". It will be less confusing that two yaughts witht the same name! ha ha ha ;-)
May the pips be with you.
