Monthly Webinar: What Traders Need to Know About Today's Forex
Expert: Mark Whistler, Senior Market Strategist at TradingMarkets.com
Moderator: Maud Gilson
Summary:
1. Indicators are Failing…
a. Indicator Failure Revealed: Mark will not only explain why indicators are failing today's market, but show example after example of how almost all technical indicators are providing false signals in today's environment.
b. Specific Examples: Traders will learn how and why MACD, Stochastics, CCI, Candlesticks, Relative Strength and Fibonacci are all providing false signals.
c. Webinar guests will then learn how to put the odds back in their favor… making technical indicators more reliable in today's volatility driven Forex environment.
2. Price Action | Volume/Dollar Action | Defined, in Addition with an Explanation of How Institutional Trading and Thinking Really Works Within Forex.
a. Price Action | Volume/Dollar Action: There's a reason 95% of all Forex traders lose money… Because they really don't understand the event unfolding on the chart before their very eyes. During this portion of the Monthly Webinar, traders will finally understand what 'price action' is and why/how the paradigm is 'for blind retail traders'. Uncovering truth behind price action versus volume/dollar action will give traders additional insight into why technicals are built for failure from the start, while helping finally put the odds back in the at-homes traders corner.
b. Institutional Trading: Buy Side versus Sell
Side versus Buying and Selling.
If you've had a tough time CONSISTENTLY profiting in Forex, it could be –perhaps- because you have yet to clearly understand the true underpinnings of intraday volatility and motives of institutional players. Here, Whistler will specifically explain why retail traders are missing the 'real game' from the start and thus, are really set up for failure from the very beginning. This portion of the Webinar will open the door to volatility/probability, which will not only help traders defeat intraday swings, but also know when and where institutions are taking positions and sitting on the sidelines. If you trade Forex intraday, please do not miss this portion of the Webinar. In addition, the aforementioned discussion will serve as the primer for Advanced VWAP Trading Strategies- to be delivered in the second half of the monthly Webinar.
3. Volatility | Probability
a. Why Volatility Matters: During this final portion of the first half of the monthly Webinar, traders will see why and how volatility matters- especially for intraday trading. Have you ever wished you had an indicator that would show when trending is about to begin and when trending has ended? What's more, with the information from Whistler's discussion on volatility and probability, traders will begin to see how by using a few simple commonplace indicators – differently than shown almost anywhere else within global educational Forex channels – can make all the difference in the world in being able to spot volatility ahead of the crowd.

Dear Mr Maud
I think you will do the premium member a great help by recording most of the webinars so that your members can go over them later. This will be very appreciative.I hope to become a preminm member soon and I don't know where I can get Mark Whistler's VWAP webinar to watch?

Dear Harold,
It depends on the time we have and the resources of our team, but sometimes we can record Premium webinars. I'm sorry, but part 2 of this Monthly Webinar with Mark Whistler was not recorded. Thanks for your understanding.

Hi Maud, Can I second that vote please? Can you ask Mark to redo the part 2 section on vwap, I use this (or a version I created of it) already and am very interested in his different point of view... Thanks & Regards DV
