		<description><![CDATA[I have become enamored of the accelerator oscillator. Although I’ve had little experience with it prior to this experiment, I’m finding that it has much to offer, warning me when the current microtrend is softening and preparing to pull back. For day trading, this allows me to enter the market as the microtrend reverses, ride [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=theforexwriter.wordpress.com&amp;blog=3965418&amp;post=21&amp;subd=theforexwriter&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[After being whipsawed for much of the previous week, I’ve started testing a new technical forex trading strategy, similar to the one discussed in “Time Passages,” below. You’re welcome to follow along or paper-trade it for yourself if you have a mind. Because risk aversion and market jitters are shrinking trading ranges and reversing price [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=theforexwriter.wordpress.com&amp;blog=3965418&amp;post=18&amp;subd=theforexwriter&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

I executed several poorly-timed trades, twice entering the market just as it turned south and moved against me without warning, for losses of just over 10% of my account. In one of those trades, I went long the AUD/JPY just as a fresh round [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=theforexwriter.wordpress.com&amp;blog=3965418&amp;post=15&amp;subd=theforexwriter&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I’ve spent some time recently looking at forex trading schemes, those “systems” that are advertised online where you spend some outrageous amount of money for a set of DVDs, CDs, books, software, whatever. I’m not going to name names here (my one well-meant attempt at whistleblowing proved disastrous), but what I’ve seen infuriated me.

		<description><![CDATA[Let’s talk about some of the major currencies (USD, EUR, GBP, CHF, JPY, CAD, AUD). These comprise the currency pairs with the most action and the lowest spreads, and more brokers handle them. Many minor currencies have good features—the Mexican peso moves in long sharp trends that are a trader’s dream, more than recouping that [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=theforexwriter.wordpress.com&amp;blog=3965418&amp;post=11&amp;subd=theforexwriter&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The concept of a simple moving average (SMA) is, well, simple: the more time periods used to calculate it, the less sensitive the results; the fewer used, the more sensitive. An SMA calculated over one time period, to use a silly example, is the same as the price used to calculate it, and therefore the [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=theforexwriter.wordpress.com&amp;blog=3965418&amp;post=8&amp;subd=theforexwriter&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
