Essentials of Trading FOREX Video

Have you ever wanted a quick, 20-minute introduction to the basic information on getting started in the FOREX Market?  Bill Poulos and the staff at Profits Run released a sharp 20-minute introductory video that I was asked to share with you for those readers who might be interested in a quick run-down on FOREX Market Basics.

(Image opens to the video link page but does not launch the video)

Entitled “Essential FOREX Trading and Software Basics,” Mr. Poulos walks you through an auditory PowerPoint Presentation containing the following slides and topics:

FOREX Overview (4 slides)
FOREX Quotes (3 slides)
Leverage & Margin (2 slides - be aware that FOREX is riskier and highly leveraged)
Calculating Profits and Losses
Order Types (Market, Limit, Stop)

On the page, you’ll also find a link to download an 80 page PDF Document I referenced recently entitled FOREX Profit Principles.

Profits Run offers free educational content as well as more lengthy paid educational content presented in a similar medium as this video.  There is additional information for those interested on the launch page of the video.

As always, as an affiliate member, I wouldn’t be doing my job if I didn’t remind you that, although FOREX can be lucrative (I personally find some of the price patterns and trends to be cleaner in FOREX charts) it contains much higher risk, and as such, it can be more important to get a solid education before risking live capital in the FOREX markets, even though the barrier for entry (and account size) may be lower.
