hey guys,
I've just started doing some research into Forex trading. I want to do as much reading as I can on the subject before jumping in. Any books or resources you would recommend?
thanks!

I watch FXE. Forex trading made available as ETFs is the way I will participate in this asset class.

Last Time I learn Forex Trading, the first step is I visit all the site that provide little tutorial. Most of them is those company that provide online trading platform. Then I open a trial account and trade like playing games. DON'T EVER JUMP INTO THE MARKET WITHOUT THIS STEPS. Trust me there are a lot of thing to learn. Starting I keep losing even in one month I lost 2 accounts that have $50000 credit. Lucky it is not my real money!
Just keep trying and learning until you build your own trading system, I also doing this everyday!

Thanks for the help guys. I picked up "Getting Started in Currency Trading" and its a good intro to the basics.
There's lots of sites with good info, I'm just a little wary of any site that is also trying to sell something as the info they give may not be in my best interests.
thanks again

Tim, look at FAX for a mostly Australian & New Zealand somewhat Southeast Asian currency ETF.
Credit goes to Jonathan Hoenig for both of these symbol recommendations. (Whatever I might think of his politics.)
Please mention any other currency ETFs you can find. Seems like they are turning everying into ETFs these days.
If you are using etfconnect.com for info, I recommend paying attention to the intial offering NAV versus today's NAV for the same fund. That should tell you whether it makes sense to hold a continuous position in any ETF.

I'm sorry to say but, why would anyone pay for a forex class when you can learn all you need to know using the forex system ( link provided ) to make $30,000 per month?
Yeah- read the signature
It teaches you how to use the currency-exchange system, infact he provides a link that lets you download a $300 program, for free, to help you get started. I am just started with the program, I am not at that level of invest ment. I am moving forward. I wish i could tell more about the topic but I just wanted to let everyone know that there are programs on the internet that are much more profitable than paying for a class. Come on, learn the stuff from home and save some bucks for yourself.

I would agree.... Don't pay for someone to teach you when certain forex platform companies will help you every step of the way for FREE.
Like the one listed below (sig). Live help while you trade and super minimal investment to start. Great site, Great people. Very willing to help you learn.

Interesting,
I have researched and evaluated almost every FOREX training system on the market over the years, and if anyone thinks they can learn it on their own, they are simply wrong. Even with all the hands on training, FOREX is not an easy way to make money, in fact, 95% never make anything, and worse, they lose money.
When I see someone say make $30,000. per month, I want to gag. Yes, if you have $100K bankroll you can earn $30,000.00 per month, but when you factor in your losses for the month, you will be lucky to come out ahead by a few thousand, even if you are a professional, the money is not as easy as posted, so beware. There are better ways to get into FOREX with a much more conservative system, so do your research.
Good luck to all, Mike
