Moderator: Maud Gilson

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.

Understanding the simple rules of Money Management – Part II: Position sizing

Expert: Sunil Mangwani, CEO at FibForex123
Moderator: Maud Gilson, Conference Manager

Summary:
A trader must use the 3M’s (Money, Mind & method…in that order) in the trading plan to ensure success in trading.

Of the 3M’s, Money Management is the most important part…and ironically the most ignored.

If a trader understands only the following 2 rules of money management, it increases the probability of success –

1.) The Risk-to-Reward ratio.

2.) The correct exposure of the trading capital.

In the first part of this series, we looked at the importance of the Risk-to-Reward ratio.

In the second part, we will look at the correct exposure of capital and understand “Position sizing”.

Part 1 of this presentation is available too: Understanding the simple rules of Money Management – Part I: The Risk-to-Reward ratio
