You know what really grinds my gears? That most people who want to have an extra income, or become financial independent, are not even aware of the forex market. Now, I have traded stocks, commodities, forex, CFDs, ETFs…you name it (check out my bio on the About Us page). But nothing compares to the power and flexibility of trading the forex market.

The global currency market (forex) trades 24 hours a day during the week, and you can open an account for as little as $100. That means anyone can start taking steps towards financial independence. With forex you get amazing leverage so you can grow your money fast…if you follow some guidelines (go to the Trading Tutorial page and look under Forex to learn more).

You owe it to yourself to get involved. Unlike stock trading you don’t need thousands of dollars to get started, and you can trade at night, after work…you decide.

 Here are few steps to get you started:

1. Open a practice account with Forex Yard. See what forex is all about, try it out, and while you make some funny money trades…

2. Look through the Trading Tutorials page, sign up for my free newsletter, read the posts on the Market Blog for trade ideas, analysis and trading tips.

3. If you want further guidance and forex trading strategies, check out my eBook on forex trading–Profiting From the Forex Market Using Chart Patterns (it provides forex trading strategies including set-ups, entries, stops and profit targets)–or check out some of the trading programs and resources below.

4. Coming in March, 2012 subscribe to the Vantage Point Trading Member’s Area, providing up to date forex analysis, trade ideas and exclusive educational content. This is the ultimate forex package for those looking to improve their trading, discipline and analytical abilities.
