Here's somebody if we come back in a number of years see how he is doing he will definitely be in an enviable position. The formula is simple help enough other people get what they want and life will find a way to get what you need. As a recent recipient of his generosity I can see it's plainly it is a pleasure to work with him. So without further ado is my pleasure to introduce

How I got started in Forex Blogging

 


It was October 2008 and I was laid off of my job in construction. I was used to being laid off in the winter and it was normal for me because construction slows down in the winter. I started trading that month. I lost money and started blogging about my trading. My construction job never came back due to the poor economy so I kept on blogging.


At the same time I read an article titled how to make 1000.00 a month from your website. After reading that article I decided I would take Forex Trading and turn it into a website that would attempt to help traders and create income for myself at the same time. The key was that I read the article and I followed the instructions. Part of the problem with people today is they don't read and they don't follow instructions.


On January 1, 2009 Winners Edge Trading was launched with the intent to educate traders during the quest to be a professional trader. That has been 16 months now and the site has grown to reach over 175,000 forex traders and we are reaching out to more traders.


We now have several writers, a trading service, trading videos, and much more to come. During this quest to become a professional trader I have met several key people that have helped to teach me better trading. As a result of these relationships along with hard work, I have learned to trade profitably and we are helping others do the same.


Keep at it and you can be a great trader also.

“How did you get Started in the 4x?”

by Forex Tree Dude on March 10, 2010 · 1 comment

This next series I will be asking the question "How you got Started in the 4x?" The first up is the blogger of the Forex Crunch. I highly recommend his site as he is a testament to hard work pays off. One can see him posting on the Forex Factory and usually post comments with his piers. If you get a chance to fallow his face book post you see his talent is well rounded in all parts of life. So with out further delay.

The publisher of Forex Crunch,

Here is Yohay.

I've always been fascinated by foreign exchange. Macro economic news and their impact on currencies were subjects that I found myself reading again and again. In the summer of 2005, following a recommendation from a friend, I started an intensive course in forex trading.

The course exposed technical analysis to me and I began examining patterns. I then began trading with various brokers, losing some, winning some, and trying not to lose the lesson.

A year later, I began writing a personal blog. This had nothing to do with my interest in foreign exchange. The bi-lingual blog began as a travel journal but quickly became the scene for self expression in different fields: politics, music, lifestyle, etc.

Later in 2006, I read an article about pro-blogging – making money out of writing blogs. At the beginning, it was quite an interesting read, but that's it. And then it came to me: I can write about forex trading.

Realizing an idea takes time. I bought the Forex Crunch domain in the beginning of 2007, but began taking it seriously only two years later. There's never enough time, too many design issues that bloggers waste time on and too many distractions. You never know where to start from.

At first, I thought of writing about the basics of forex trading, but found myself re-writing the content again and again. I cut this loop by writing fresh content: daily outlooks.

Eventually, my writing became more and more steady. I got used to writing lots of content and began having more regular sections: the daily outlook, links posts, etc. I still write more educational style articles, and especially preach for testing the market and your skills with a forex demo account.

Recently, coverage of the forex industry and various forex software products has also become part of my agenda. Technology is very up to date in forex trading, and there are developments all the time. As a former programmer, I find this interesting for me, and I hope that also for my readers.

Learning never ends. I am continuously listening to readers' comments, letters and their "feet" – which posts receive more attention and which are skipped upon. Writing about EUR/USD always receives attention, but it can't take up all the space – this will make everybody bored…

Reaching out to new audiences is also an ongoing task. This means commenting on others' sites, co-operating with other sites and more.

I hope that my readers enjoy the site and find it useful. It will continue to evolve.

I'd be glad to answer your questions and tell you more.

February 23, 2010

January 25, 2010

Most of us, especially when we are starting out, are not full time Forex traders.  Most of us, especially those of us who are retail traders, try to fit our trades in around what are already full and active lives (both at home and at work).  I know I'm not the only one with a [...]

Recent News on the CFTC’s 10:1 Leverage Proposal

January 20, 2010

From what I can tell, this latest move by the CFTC (to restrict leverage across the board to a 10:1 leverage) will have the biggest effect on the United States' retail portion of the foreign exchange market.  I've read some opinions that say that the United State's forex retail market is tiny compared to larger [...]
