Forex Apprentice – It’s Just Like Passing Your Driving Test

By sam

Hi Everyone, it’s been a while and I feel a distinct sense of déjà-vous!  Let me take you back to the time you passed your driving test and that sense of excitement, freedom and purpose.  You now had your destiny in your own hands, you controlled where you went, when – and how.  Completing the forex course has been no different.

My confidence is growing too although I have to say I was over confident one morning this week.  I have now got into a good rhythm and am demo trading four mornings out of five during the week, normally getting to my desk anywhere between 6am and 7am, depending on children’s movements and dog walk responsibilities!

Every morning I got to my platform, set up just as Sid recommended we set it up and take stock of what has happened overnight.  I also spent some of this time reading the Daily Bulletin and picking up a few tips here and there from what some of the other forex apprentices from my course are doing and how they are finding things.

I feel it will be really helpful to those considering learning forex just to touch on what I mean by being over confident as I fully appreciate, if I HAD been a live trader on Wednesday of this week, I would have made a loss.   We are currently doing just one trade a day and I can truly appreciate why that is now.

I traded slightly later on Wednesday and saw that there was a really great PPA trade (sorry, I said no jargon and I’m already doing it. PPA is the name of a certain type of trade that I’ve learned) which I went for, and I managed to get five pips. BUT completely against advice – I took another trade and not only that – didn’t take my time or do what I have been taught, I just got greedy. Result, I lost the pips I had previously made. So let me reinforce the most critical part of Sid’s forex course training – follow the rules – this is the MOST important lesson to learn.

I am just so glad that I have taken Sid’s course, we are very much apprentices now and it is much, much better to be making, these (quite frankly) stupid mistakes now, than to learn a very costly lesson down the line.  I can only state once again just how glad I am to have chosen this particular forex training course.  My apprenticeship is well underway – this support system is wonderful. I now know absolutely that forex can only benefit my life.   My dream is to take the pressure of my day to day work life and my husband’s too – making our money work for us to provide the things we want, without both of us working all the hours God sends.

If you don’t believe me, check out some of the videos that are now appearing on the website!  Who knows, maybe one day this will become my job too – that’s how excited I am right now!
