Forex Bank Prediction resources

Whether you are a long term trader or a scalper you will always be curious about and would like to know what are the big players in the Forex market doing. What are their positions? Fortunately, certain websites do provide that kind of information. To be more precise I am talking about the positions that are held by the big banks and big hedge funds.

The best websites with bank positions, or in my opinion, the most useful ones are:

1. eFXnews - it is Boston based financial media agency covering global FX markets. It provides the positions held my the biggest players in the market. Highly recommendable one.

2. PLTfx - it is FX trading advisory and Funds Management. Another great resource that provides bank Forex positions. It requires login.

3. Forex Quebec - it is global Forex trading portal that provides the bank positions under its bank forecasts section. It is a good resource though it is not providing the forecasts on daily basis.

4. Dukascopy TV - a Forex broker that is providing the information in video format on part-time basis.

5. Forex Street - another global Forex trading portal. It provides many positrons of a slightly less relevant players in the market.

In short, it is always useful to know what are the biggest players in the market predicting before you enter your position.

Profitable trading using Forex Robots (2)

Due to huge interest shown in previous post about the commercial Forex robots. I have decided to extend the list of recommended ones by two new ones.

WallStreet Forex Robot

Trading pairs: EURUSD, USDJPY, GBPUSD, USDCHF on 1 hour time-frame
Average weekly gain: 2.24%
Min. deposit: $1000
Independent test results #1: Link
Independent test results #2: Link

Forex MegaDroid

Trading pairs: EURUSD on 1 hour time-frame
Average weekly gain: 0.38%
Min. deposit: $1000
Independent test results #1: Link
Independent test results #2: Link

Once again, I remind you that before you start trading on a live account follow the procedure explained in previous post about the robots and keep in mind the rules about the testing.

Profitable trading using THV strategy

THV is a legendary free manual trading strategy that was developed by Cobraforex. The strategy is originally designed for scalping (trading on smaller time-frames), although some traders successfully use it on larger time-frames. It can be applied to any trading instrument, but since it is a scalping strategy the better results are carried out on currency pairs with smaller spreads.

THV manual and indicators can be downloaded from here. Well, my intention is not to explain you the strategy, but to point out on few additional things that can improve your trading results. Since, it is a scalping strategy, I have applied it to 5 minute time-frame.

First, I advise you to take only those trades that are in accordance with bigger time-frames. If on 5 minute time-frame buy signal is met then check out if according to THV strategy the pair is in buy zone on 15 minute and 1 on hour time-frame. If is not, do not enter the trade. Also, if sell signal is met, check if the pair is in sell zone on 15 minute and 1 hour time-frame.

Second, take a look at Economic calendar. Do not enter the trades half an hour before highly and moderately volatile news release for the one of the currencies in the pair.

Finally, check the volume. Do not enter the trade if the volume is low. It should not be the problem if you are trading on business day during London or New York session.

Hopefully, these remarks will help you to improve your trading results. Good luck!
