MACD (Moving Average Convergence-Divergence) How to Use MACD in Forex Trading

MACD is one of the most reliable indicators. Although I do not believe in using indicators in my own trading and I always use the price candlestick chart to find the trade setups, I look at MACD direction when I find a signal on the price chart. So I use MACD as a confirmation and it really works for me.
This is a million dollar question. Before I answer this question that why MACD works, I prefer to explain about one of the most important reasons of forex traders’ (and also all other kind of traders’)failure. Maybe you have heard this a lot from us but it has to be reminded in this article too. Lack of patience is one of the most important reasons of forex traders failure. Most traders are not patient enough to wait for a good trade setup. After several minutes, hours or days that they wait for a signal (depend on the time frame or system they use), and they can not find any signal, they lose their patience and force themselves to take a position while there is no sharp and clear signal. So they lose. On the other hand, when they succeed to take a good position, they get out too early with a small profit because they are afraid of losing the profit they have already made. They do not have enough patience to hold a position until it hits the target. So they make their profit limited because of lack of patience. MACD is a solution for this problem because it is so delayed and this delay forces you to wait more, both when you are waiting for a trade setup or when you already have a position. That’s why MACD is recommended both by forex and stock traders.
There are a lot of cases that your other indicators and even the price chart show you a signal but MACD tells you wait and it keeps you from going against the trend and losing money. There are also a lot of cases that you want to follow a trend but MACD tells you it is too late and the trend is exhausted and may reverse very soon. In this article, I will do my best to cover all of these cases and help you use MACD in your trades in the best way.
MACD stands for Moving Average Convergence / Divergence. MACD is an indicator which is used in technical analysis. This indicator is developed by Gerald Appel who was a trader and market technical analyst.
MACD is the difference of a 12 and a 26 exponential moving average. MACD subtracts the 26-period from the 12-period and the result will be displayed in a single line which is the MACD main line. Typical MACD indicators, have one extra line, which is a simple moving average of the main line. This moving average is set to 9 by default. In MetaTrader, the default MACD doesn’t have the main MACD line. Instead, it has bars (histogram). On other platforms, you can see both the MACD main line and MACD histogram.
If you are a trader, probably MACD formula will have no use for you. You will need it, if you are a programmer and want to use MACD in designing and developing an EA (expert advisor) or robot.
The MACD that comes with MetaTrader by default, has only one color with the histograms. If you like to have the same colored MACD we have on our charts, please download and install it to your platform before we start explaining about MACD and the way we use it in technical analysis and forex trading. This indicator works in MetaTrader. You need to copy and paste it to the /experts/indicators/ folder and then restart your platform and apply the indicator on the price chart: Click Here
The below chart shows how colored MACD looks like. It also has the Simple Moving Average (9) but I always set it to 0 because I don’t need it. It doesn’t help. In the indicator you downloaded above, it is set to 0 by default, but you can change it back to 9 if you like.
The MACD bars (histogram) you see below, reflect the difference of the 12 and 26 exponential moving average. On the price chart, you see two exponential moving averages. The green one is the 26 and the red one is the 12. As you see, wherever the distance of these two moving averages is longer, the MACD bars are longer too and wherever these two moving averages cross, the length of the related MACD bar is zero (follow the arrows).
As you see, when there is an upward (Bullish) movement and pressure, MACD goes up and changes its color to blue and when there is a downward (Bearish) pressure and movement, it goes down and changes its color to red.

MACD bars form highs and lows. When we have an uptrend, they form higher highs and when we have a downtrend, they form lower highs and when the bars go under the zero level, they form lower lows:

As I mentioned, MACD is delayed and so when you see a reversal signal with the candlesticks and Bollinger Bands and you want to take a position against the trend, MACD tells you “No”. Of course, if you know about the Elliott Waves and also the cycles, you will not take any position against the trend even if you don’t have MACD on your chart, but as knowing the cycles and Elliott Waves is very difficult, you can use MACD to stay on the right way.
For example, you see the below reversal. A candle is formed completely out of the Bollinger Band and then there are three Bearish candles that are all reversal signals. Three candles before this, you already had another reversal but you should have ignored it because it was fresh and came just after a big Bullish candle. But, the second sell signal (in the yellow zone), assured you that you can go short. Lets say you wouldn’t have MACD on your chart or you wouldn’t pay any attention to it. You could go short and set your stop loss above the highest high.

and guess what? Your stop loss would be triggered:

So going against MACD is dangerous. But, it is not the only mistake you can make. MACD also indicates if market is overbought or oversold. When it is overbought, it is risky to go long and when it is oversold, it is risky to go short. When market is overbought, Bulls (buyers) can start collecting their profit (they sell) at any time and so the price goes down and when market is oversold, Bears can start buying at any time and so the price may go up. Of course, the candles also tell you if market is overbought or oversold, but MACD is also a big help. Lets see an example.
You are a trend trader. You have an uptrend here. You see some reversal signals but you wait for a continuation signal to go long. A strong Bullish candle forms (the last candle) and at the same time the last MACD bar changes it color and shows an upward pressure. This is what you have been waiting for to go long but you don’t consider that market has been going up for a long time and can reverse at any time. Of course it could go much higher, but we never know.

This position goes up only for one more candle and then goes down and triggers your stop loss:

MACD trading is so common among forex traders. They just wait for a fresh MACD movement for a few bars and then they enter. MACD is really good for trend trading. It is also good for confirming the reversal signals. However, MACD has to be used as a confirmation. The main indicator is the price chart and technical analysis. If you use MACD as a confirmation for support and resistance break, it will be a big help.
Look at the below image. There is a trend line with valid and visible support line. You are waiting for the support breakdown to go short. MACD starts going down for several candles before the break down, but you don’t go short because it can bounce up as soon as it touches the support line. One of the candles closes below the support line and at the same time, you see that MACD is going down, BUT it is fresh and it is not oversold. It is above the zero level too. So you go short at the open of the next candle, set your stop loss above the high price of last candle and your target will be the next support level. It goes down and hits the target very easily.

Now look at the below image which is in fact the same as the above image, but it just shows another support break down which happens a while after the above support breakdown. Obviously, it is a new chance to take another short position, but look at the MACD and its difference with the previous position. In the previous position, MACD had started going down while it was way above the zero level. It means, you would go short while market has been overbought which is a good decision. In this position (below), not only MACD is not above the zero level, but it has already started going up and making higher lows. So market is oversold and your sell signal is not fresh. It is a second hand sell signal
and guess what happens if you would go short and would not consider MACD:

So your position triggers the stop loss before it hits the target.
MACD Divergence is one of the most famous and strongest trading signals that MACD generates. MACD Divergence forms when the price goes up and makes higher highs and at the same time, MACD bars go down and make lower highs. The rule says, the price will finally follow the MACD direction and will break down. However, the problem is, you never know when the price will follow the MACD direction. So, if you rush and take a short position right when you see a MACD Divergence, it may keep on going up for several more candles. You should go short when MACD Divergence is followed by a good sell signal by the candles and/or a support break down. This is safer.
MACD Divergence can be seen at the end of uptrends. What does it mean? It means if you are a trend trader, you should not go long when you see that a MACD Divergence is formed. It can collapse at any time.

MACD Convergence is also a famous signal but people trust the MACD Divergence more because when the market goes down and collapses, it goes faster and stronger. Fear is stronger than greed and when market goes down, fear is the dominant emotion.
MACD Convergence forms when price goes down and forms lower highs or lower lows but at the same time MACD bars go up and form higher highs or higher lows. The rule says, the price will finally change the direction and will follow MACD which means it goes up. MACD Convergence can be seen at the end of downtrends. What does it mean? It means if you are a trend trader, you should not go short when you see that a MACD Convergence is formed. It can jump up at any time.

Live Trading Versus Demo Trading

Demo trading is a good way of starting the trading business. It helps the novice traders develop their skills and learn the trading system they choose. Demo trading is like the flight simulator for pilots. While everything is tried to be the same as the real work, there are some differences naturally.

1. Client/Trader Side Differences:

In demo trading, even if everything is the same as the real work technically, there is one thing that can hardly be the same: You know that you are trading with the demo money, and not your real hard-earned money.

This can make some big differences in the end result. When you know and you always consider that you are demo trading, you will have no or at least less fear and greed. You are not afraid of losing and you are not too greedy to make more. And this will result in having less discipline.

Having no emotion (fear and greed) is really good, but the problem is you will experience these emotions as soon as you start trading with the live account and real money. Therefore, when some traders succeed to make profit on the demo account and then they decide to switch to the live account, they start losing and this makes them surprised. Some of them try to find an excuse for their losses and the broker is the best one to be accused.

There are also some traders who accuse God. They think that God doesn’t want them to make money and they are doomed to be poor. Whereas if they analyze their trades and their behavior and emotions, they will see that they behave completely different in demo and live trading.

The first and most important thing is that you forget and you do not think that you are demo trading and it is just a fake number that goes up and down, and it is not the real money. If you are supposed to open a $1000 live account in future and when it is the time to, then do not open a $50,000 demo account. This makes your mind know that you are not trading seriously and it is just a game. Open a $1000 demo account and treat it exactly as a live account.

The other thing is that some people keep on demo trading for a long time, and will become addicted to it somehow. They spend several hours at the computer, trading the demo account and they make themselves think that they are working and they are doing something useful. Whereas because of trading on the demo account for a long time, while knowing that it is just demo, they completely ruin their discipline.

Demo trading is good, but just for a limited time to learn the trading basics, and know the trading strategy signals and trade setups. Then you must switch to a live account and start experiencing live trading. You can start with small amount of money and small lot sizes, but you have to start it sooner or later. Didn’t you start learning forex to make money? Then you should switch to live trading and see how it feels to earn/lose real money.

You should know that demo trading is not able to develop the discipline you need to trade and make money. If you keep on demo trading for several years, and then you open a small live account, you will definitely feel some different emotions when you want to take a position with your live account. The emotions that you did not have when you were demo trading. These emotions make you make some mistakes that you had become able to avoid in your demo trading journey. You feel more fear when you want to click on the buy/sell buttons, and when the market goes against your position. You also have more greed and you over-trade more.

Then, does it mean that you have to keep on demo trading and stop live trading?

No. You feel relaxed and relived when you go back to demo trading, because those emotions and the losses they caused will disappear again, and you start doing good on your demo account again. This makes you happy and you think that you are doing good, but you are not. The emotions you experience in live trading, do not exist in demo trading (or at least they are weaker and controllable), and so if you keep on demo trading, you will never become able to know and control those emotions. You have to open a live account with the money that you can afford to lose, and then start trading while you are aware of the emotions and your behavior.

Like when you started demo trading and you lost until you learned what to do, you will lose when you start live trading, but finally you will learn what to do. All successful traders have wiped out their accounts at least for a few times at the beginning. This is absolutely normal. Exactly like a kid that wants to learn to walk. He/she falls down numerous times until he/she learns to walk and run.

This is the process in forex trading and in any other business. No Pain, No Gain!

There are so many novice traders who like to make thousands of dollars through forex trading, without spending any money or without handling any loss. Some of them who find Forexoma and hear about the Forexoma trading room which is offered for free to the Forexoma live account holders, just use the chance and open a small $500 to have free access to the trading room and Forexoma robots. While these people are welcome to do this, but sooner or later they have to make themselves dare to click on the buy/sell buttons, and start experiencing live trading. With having a $500 account and not being able to trade even a 0.1 lot position, you are doing nothing but feeding your fear. There is no doubt that this method doesn’t get you anywhere and you will not become a trader finally. You think you are smart, because you have free access to the trading room and you are learning to trade and are not spending nor losing any money, but you do not consider that you are not making any money too and you are just wasting your time. If you really intend to become a trader finally, you should choose the right way.

In forex trading those who try to be too smart, lose more than the others. The biggest loss in forex trading is not losing money in your initial accounts. The biggest loss is choosing the wrong way, wasting a lot of time and then giving up on forex and losing the chance of making any money through forex trading for the rest of your life.

That is why it was finally decided to make some limitations to help this group of novice traders break the ice and start controlling their fear, or at least stop wasting their time. To give the new traders a chance to learn, they can use the trading room for a while without having any trading activity on their live accounts. However, after 2 months of account inactivity, their access to the trading room will be blocked. To have access to the trading room again, they have to have the minimum of 2 months of reasonable and normal trading activity which is an activity that shows that their accounts is opened for trading, not for having free access to the trading room or other things. The minimum of a few positions per week can be known as reasonable and normal trading activity. If the money you have deposited in your live account is all you have and is the money you can not afford to lose, then you should close your live account and forget about forex trading for now. It doesn’t work like that.

To learn forex trading, you do not have to spend any money, because there are a lot of invaluable information over the Internet for free. You just need to find the right way, follow it and finally get where you want to get. However, you will have to handle some losses when you start. And this is something you can not avoid. If you start trading with the money that you can afford to lose, your losses will help you to become a professional trader finally, because they show you your mistakes and help you avoid them.

But with keeping on demo trading for several months and years, you are doing nothing, but developing the emotions that will be your biggest enemy in your trading journey.

What should you do then? What is the solution?

1. Learn the basics of forex market, forex trading and technical analysis.
2. Choose at least a good and simple trading system and learn it properly.
3. Practice your trading system on a demo account for a few months. Learn to stick to your trading system rules.
4. Open a live account with the money that you can afford to lose, and start live trading, not for the purpose of making money, but just to be faced with the emotions that come with live trading, and to learn to know and control these emotions. Money will come only when you pass this stage. So don’t think about making money and becoming rich if you have not passed this stage yet.
5. When you became able to control your emotions in live trading and you started making money consistently, then you can top up your account and trade bigger lots. Before reaching this level, you will lose money, and you can even wipe out your account for a few times, but this is the price that you have to pay to become able to control your live trading emotions and become a profitable trader finally. This is one of the most important and necessary stages of becoming a profitable forex trader, whether you like it or not. You have to think about this stage, before you start learning forex. If you can enter this stage, then start learning forex. If you can not, you’d better not to start at all.

2. Broker Side Differences:

Demo trading is like the computer games. The numbers you see there are just numbers. You can open a $1,000,000,000.00 account and take several 1000 lots positions everyday. There is no limit and problem and the broker will handle all of your orders. Your pending, stop loss and target orders will be executed instantly and not even with a 0.01 pip difference or 0.01 second delay. Why? Because it is just some numbers on the broker’s demo servers. Demo accounts are not connected to any bank and the order you place in your demo accounts do not have to be transferred anywhere. Whereas it is a completely different story with the live accounts.

ECN/STP brokers have to transfer the orders to the banks (liquidity providers), and this makes the demo trading a little different from live trading.

On an ECN/STP platform, when you click on the buy/sell buttons or you place a pending order (including your SL and TP orders) and the market reaches the pending order price:

1. The broker has to receive your order on its server first.
2. Some ECN brokers (including Forexoma) work with several different liquidity providers. When there is an order, the system looks for a liquidity provider that is offering the best price and liquidity at that moment. Then the order has to be sent to that liquidity provider.
3. The order has to be received and approved by the liquidity provider and be placed on the line waiting for execution. Each liquidity provider may receive hundreds or thousands of orders at the same time that your order is also received. All orders have to wait on the line and become executed one by one.

Although all of the above process is done automatically and electronically, it takes time (even as low as a few milliseconds sometimes) to be done and completed, specially when there are thousands of orders received at the same time. And this required time makes the price differences.

Liquidity providers execute the orders they receive, but not with the price that we say. They execute the orders with the price that they want. You would do the same if you were a liquidity provider. Imagine, you receive a buy order at 1.5625 while there are 15000 other orders ahead waiting to be executed. When it is the time to execute this order, the market price is changed to 1.5700. If you execute the order at 1.5625 then the trader will be 75 pips in profit as soon as the position is taken, and you have to pay this profit as the liquidity provider. This is something that may happen during the news release time. Therefore, liquidity providers place the order on the line and each order will be executed with the price that the market shows at the moment of execution. That makes a lot of sense.

This explains why when you switch from demo trading to live trading with an ECN/STP broker, some of your orders are not executed exactly with the price that they were set to. You set a pending order at 1.2530, but it becomes executed at 1.2531. It is the same with the stop loss and target orders, because they are also orders that have to be executed.

With the market maker brokers it can be even worse, because they have to do something to make sure that all their clients always lose.

Therefore, you should not expect that live trading to be 100% the same as demo trading. It is LIVE and REAL  trading after all. It is not a computer game. It is not just playing with some numbers. It is REAL buying and selling on a REAL market.

That is why the scalper robots win on the demo accounts, but lose on the live accounts. It is the same for the scalper traders. Some of them become able to win on the demo accounts, but they can not repeat their success on the live accounts, first because of the new and different emotions that they experience in live trading, and second because of the different conditions that demo and live markets have. You may be able to make 1-3 pips on the demo account, but the live market conditions may not let you do it.

Does it mean that nobody can make money on the live market?

Absolutely not. There are so many trader who make money on the live market consistently. You just need to learn it.

Bottom-line:

You are here most probably because you want to make money through forex trading. This is a good idea, but if you do not know how to trade forex, you also do not know how to learn to trade forex. Most people who start trading forex lose and give up, not because forex trading is hard. But because they not only do not know how to trade, but they do not how to learn. Therefore, they try to plan it on their own. They read so many books, sign up for so many courses, read hundreds of articles, try so many different trading strategies, indicators, robots…, and finally will come to this conclusion that they can not make it work. Sadly, they never think that they are following a wrong way that merely wastes their time and money.

Here on this page, we already explained about the right way. You can join us on Forexoma Online Trading Room and complete your knowledge and experience. There are so many traders there who can show you the way and answer your questions. This is all you need to become a trader. A business that can make thousands of dollars potentially, can not be learned overnight and without spending any time and handling any loss and pain. The sooner you start passing the stages, the sooner your dreams will come true.

Know the 5 Key Benefits From Managed Currency Trading

Browse > Home / Finance / Know the 5 Key Benefits From Managed Currency Trading

Do you know the key benefits of managed forex trading? Do you how to notice an immoral operator? Otherwise, you have found the right article to read.

Managed forex trading can be defined as funding a professional trader, a trading company, or a forex robot to trade your account for you. If you’re an investor and seeking for an excellent approach to double your capital rather than letting it rot in your bank account, this is one of the top choices.

These are some important benefits and what to look for from managed foreign exchange trading:

1. A good managed forex trading business is clear, so you see how they trade your account, when they trade, how much their revenue and commissions are, what currencies they trades and what tactics and systems they use etc.

2. If you decide on an expert trader, your funds is managed by specialists who trade as a livelihood.

3. If you choose forex robot, your investment is handled by tested software which has been tested to make profits from the currency market.

4. An authentic trading company will also have real time account administration and information that enable you to get access to in-depth reports for the trades at anytime and also the ability to ask for a withdrawal when you want. Note: for funds withdrawals, it will still take some time to process.

5. If you have no education of currency trading or you just simply do not have the time to learn, you can tap into and exploit the knowledge of professional foreign-exchange traders, invest your capital with the managed forex trading business and sit back and wait for the earnings.

Nevertheless, managed forex trading is not without risks. Understand this: No trading business/foreign currency funds manager can state a formal written income assurance for their consumer with their CEO’S signature and company brand on it. Formally, it is against the law to guarantee such things.

You should be attentive, there are several foreign exchange scam operators out there. Mainly, they tempt a client with a range of sweet promises to start an account and deposit his capital. This capital is NOT in fact traded on the currency exchange market; these fake traders simply pretend to perform analysis and implement trades based on current market data. The trades rarely result in successful trades, however, these operators are very shrewd at making justifications for the losses. Once they have squeezed the client dry, they’ll take cover behind the risk disclosure and progress on to the next target.

Forex trading involves trading currency pairs including the EUR/USD pair (Eurodollar/US dollar pair) exactly where a buyer of this pair would in fact be buying the Eurodollar and simultaneously selling short the US dollar.

Here’s the deal: Just like any other market, most “traders” are losing when trading Forex. And the causes for their failure are primarily since some lack great trading techniques, sound cash and risk management principles and indiscipline trading attitude. In most situations, it may be wrong mindset and motive towards the market.

Forex Trading: Start With the Basics

Browse > Home / Finance / Forex Trading: Start With the Basics
Foreign exchange trading, or forex trading for short, refers to the exchange of different currencies used in different parts of the world. It does not need a central exchange site like the ones in stock market trading. Due to time zone differences of countries across the world, foreign exchange trading operates on a 24-hour basis.
The foreign trading market is the largest across the globe in terms of volume of trading. It far exceeds the volume of trading at the New York Stock Exchange. The majority of foreign exchange traders are individuals and private companies.
Because of the absence of a central exchange, forex trading happens between two parties directly. Buyers and sellers communicate and trade via the phone, the Internet or other communications networks worldwide.
In addition, trading forex is also speculative, meaning, they are based on expectations on whether a certain currency would rise or fall, depending on current market conditions. It is risky business, but the returns have often proved themselves worth the risk.
Fundamental Concepts on Forex Trading
In forex trading, investors usually buy and sell two currencies at the same time. One example of this cross combination is the pairing of the US dollar with the Japanese yen. The major currencies traded include the US dollar, the euro, the Japanese yen and the British pound.
Trading normally occurs in the spot market, which is the largest because of its volume. Here, trades are made and completed directly and on the spot. You don’t have to wait too long to settle.
Best Features of Forex Trading
1. No 4pm trade closing time.
The forex trading market need to be open 24-hours a day from Sunday night to Friday night. This allows traders to react to sudden changes in the value of currencies around the world.
2. Forex trading is very liquid.
You can easily convert your traded currencies, especially if they are considered major currencies, into cash in the forex market. The high liquidity of major currencies keep their spreads narrow, that is, the difference between the buying and selling prices of the currency is kept at a minimum. As a consequence, the prices of major currencies remain stable through a period of time.
3. Strong potential for profits
Traders are always on the lookout for currencies with declining values. The reason behind this is when one currency appreciates, another currency will devaluate in relation to the first currency. If a trader purchases a currency that underwent devaluation, he can sell it at a later time when the currency appreciates and earn a big profit at the same time.
4. Trading of highly liquid currencies require minimal costs
This is true for major currencies. The ease of trading these major currencies make commissions redundant and unnecessary. The currencies are valued for their own sake, not because of any sales incentives.
These are just a sampling of things you need to learn regarding forex trading. If you want more comprehensive advice on how to make your forex investments grow, your best option is to ask experts or investors with a lot of experience on trading.
