You Can Exit Your Forex Trading Transactions at the Best Price Levels

Copyright (c) 2008 Forex Trading Alerts

We are going to cover what we regard as the most challenging part of Forex trading: – When to exit a Forex trade. In preceding articles in this series on no stop, hedged Forex trading we covered “Currency trading without stops” and “Currency trading not caring which way the price moves”.

How often have you exited a Forex trade positively and then looked on as the price travelled another 100 pips in the same direction? How often have you watched as the price retraced all the way back to your entry or even beyond after you tried to squeeze the last 5 pips out of a good Forex deal? Knowing when to cash in a forex trade, one of the most challenging aspects of Forex trading.

When you enter a Forex trade all the trading signals are aligned and you can tick all entry criteria on your checklist. That is why the entry is the easy part. You are entering on your terms. When the price takes off in its intended direction it enters a mystery zone where you are dependent of the volatility of the move for the Forex transaction to succeed. You very seldom have reference points. When to cash in, or not, is always the question on every traders mind. The price tends to revisit previous support and resistance levels which makes this even more challenging.

Negative deals make things even worse. You are 30 pips down. Do you close the deal at a loss or do you wait for a small retracement to reduce your loss? Surely the price has gone as far as it can go?

It can’t go more negative? Then the transaction goes even more negative. You start thinking: “I’ve lost so much another 20 pips can’t hurt I’ll give it more room”. And so on. Many Forex traders can identify with this.

With Grid trading you don’t have that problem. You would divide the expected trading range for a particular currency for the next say 6 months (say 4000 pips) into grid levels with gaps of say 200 pips. The guesswork of when to cash in your Forex deals has been eliminated. You cash in your positive deals every time the price touches a grid level. It is as simple as that. When the result of all your deals add up to a profit you would close them all and start again. How simple can trading be? No ifs, buts or maybe’s. This is a reason why no Forex charts are required. You trade price levels, with no stops (Because each price level has a buy and sell active) and you don’t care about which direction the price moves.

The question of when to enter a Forex trading transaction is also answerred. You would use the same price levels that you use to exit profitable deals (as determined above) as the entry levels for your no stop, hedged, Forex trading grid system strategy. The process of determining the price levels is very important as some trading groups are reporting gains of one thousand percent a year on capital employed using this Forex trading technique.

This is only one example of a way of finding a grid structure. As you will see in future articles grid levels can be designed to meet the trader’s requirements in many more ways. For more information (which is freely available) on this great trading system why not search the web for “no stop Forex trading”.

This is the third in a series of seven articles on the no stop, hedged, Forex trading technique which will be presented in this article directory on an ongoing basis. Make sure that you do not miss any of them.

Online Broker TradeKing Launches its Probability Calculator to Help Investors Estimate the Potential for Volatile Share Price Movements

Online Broker TradeKing Launches its Probability Calculator to Help Investors Estimate the Potential for Volatile Share Price Movements

Boca Raton, Fla., (PRWEB) February 9, 2006

Equity investors and options traders looking for an edge on how stock prices might react to anticipated events now have access to a new online stock trading calculator that draws on the predictive power of options trading to gauge the probability of future share price movements.

Using real-time option pricing data and a bell-curve distribution, the TradeKing™ Probability Calculator, available at http://www.tradeking.com, calculates the likelihood of a stock or index moving above or below a chosen target price at a future date. Equity traders or options traders, for example, can estimate the probability of a given stock touching a target price by a selected date.

“Taking the stock price of Google as an example, the TradeKing probability calculator today says that the probability of Google shares touching $ 400.00 by February 28, 2006 is 68.8% and the probability of Google touching $ 350.00 by the end of the month is 31.3%,” said Donato A. Montanaro, Jr., TradeKing’s co-founder and CEO. “With Google shares trading around $ 368, this is a very useful tool.”

“At TradeKing, we don’t believe investing should be a solitary experience, which is why we created a tool to help investors tap the collective wisdom of the market to help them make buy, sell or hold decisions,” added Montanaro. “Our probability calculator can illustrate, in real-time, exactly how the option market is handicapping the price outcome for a particular stock, which is valuable data for any kind of investor or investment strategy.” The probability calculator – an everyday tool used by market makers, floor traders and hedge funds – is available free to TradeKing customers.

The TradeKing Probability Calculator filters complex pricing and statistical data into a cleanly designed, easy-to-use web page with pre-populated data fields, informative charts and straightforward tools to explore stock price outcomes.

“Our goal is to offer simple, yet sophisticated tools that help investors truly understand the risks and rewards in the marketplace,” added Montanaro. “We want our retail investors to benefit from the same trading tools available to professional investors. Tools like this online stock trading calculator demystify the investing experience and make it more engaging and effective for everyone.”

TradeKing, at http://www.tradeking.com, is a nationally licensed online broker dealer offering a flat

fee of $ 4.95 for both equity and option trades, plus 65 cents per contract for options, with no hidden fees or account minimums. The TradeKing Web-based platform features powerful online equity and options trading tools including real-time portfolio information, advanced order entry, customized charting and alerts, free research and integrated news, stock, option and mutual fund screeners, volatility charts, a pricing probability calculator, enhanced option chains and interactive educational information.

“Google Earnings” LIVE! Trading Video HUGE SPIKE in (GOOG) Stock Price to $592.61!

www.StockMarketFunding.com GOOG Google After Hours Earnings Report “Google Earnings” Live Trading Video HUGE SPIKE in GOOG Stock Price to 2.61! Google stock surges in after hours trading as Q3 earnings top Wall Street Expectations. Broader stock markets sold off going into the Google.com earnings report. We updated investors and traders we were bullish on the report with a 5 price target for the spike. We did hold downside protection going into the earnings with below the money put options designed as a hedge. We were extremely bullish on the stock market technical analysis case Goolge.com (GOOG) presented as “Wall Street” has sold into every earnings report over the past several earnings season. In this “Google Live Earnings Trading Video” we highlight the live price action and trading as goold break key resistance points and our SMF PRO TRADERS were long, weighted heavily to the call side. Google has acted as a true leadership stock in the face of bearish stock market pundits like “Jim Cramer” and others that felt people should be looking towards “Apple Computers” (AAPL). Mind the fact that Apple is trading at all time highs and he’s telling you to get in now? We’re in these moves before they happen and we’re here to make sure “Main Street” doesn’t get taken advantage of by “Wall St” because these people love to suck in the money and the high end before they let the stock prices drop then run them up after hours and make retail traders pay up and start …

Should i buy the call/put options of which the strike price is same as market price or higher/lower?

Question by larrybird is the BEST: Should i buy the call/put options of which the strike price is same as market price or higher/lower?
Assuming i have no plan to EXERCISE the option and i just want to profit from trading options.

E.g Apple inc is $ 100 and i expect it to “rise”. So am i wise to buy the call option of Apple inc which the strike price is $ 80? Or is it wiser to buy call option which the strike price is $ 120?
And the strategy of put option??

Thanks.

Best answer:

Answer by S
It depends upon your prognosis of the price of AAPL just before expiration. The 120 call is 20% above AAPL’s stock price and the chances of being in the money is below 50% or the delta of the 120 is a rough estimate of the probability of expiring at the money. What are the chances of AAPL going up more than 20% in the timeframe based on the expiration of the call.

In regards to the in the money call, you can buy the 80, 85, or 90 call. It depends upon your prognosis of AAPL price, your budget, and how much you want the call to move in relationship to AAPL’s price move, also known as delta. You would have to sell the in the money call before expiration otherwise the OCC will assign you if you are $ 0.01 in the money at expiration.

In regards to the bullish put option strategies, you can sell cash secured OTM puts or OTM put verticals for a credit. Remember it is not really a credit since cash is held back beyond the credit received and your buying power has been reduced.
