4. FOREX TRADING
CURRENCIES ARE ALWAYS PRICED IN PAIRS, MEANING ALL TRADES
REQUIRE THE BUYING OF ONE CURRENCY AND THE SELLING OF ANOTHER.
THE OBJECTIVE OF FX TRADING IS TO EXCHANGE ONE CURRENCY FOR
ANOTHER IN ANTICIPATION OF THE MARKET PRICE CHANGING, SO THAT
THE CURRENCY BEING BOUGHT WILL INCREASE IN VALUE RELATIVE TO THE
ONE BEING SOLD.

6. TECHNICAL ANALYSIS USING CHARTS
PRICE MOVEMENT USED IN A BAR CHART IS ILLUSTRATED
USING A BAR. THE LENGTH OF THIS BAR IS DETERMINED
BY THE HIGH AND LOW OF A TRADING PERIOD (E.G. A
DAY). SMALL HORIZONTAL TICS MAY BE USED TO
DESIGNATE OPENING AND CLOSING PRICES FOR THIS
TRADING PERIOD.
A CANDLESTICK CHART OFFERS A CLEAR VISUAL
PROFILE OF MARKET PRICES, MAKING IT EASIER TO
CATEGORISE MARKET PRICE PATTERNS TO A FINER
DEGREE. THE BODY OF THE CANDLE REPRESENTS THE
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE OPEN AND THE CLOSE FOR A
CERTAIN PERIOD.
TOPS, BOTTOMS AND TREND LINES ARE A GREAT WAY OF
IDENTIFYING HISTORICALLY SIGNIFICANT PRICE LEVELS.
TREND LINES ARE DRAWN TO CONNECT EITHER A SERIES
OF HIGHS OR LOWS IN A TREND. THEY ARE USED TO
TRACK THE TREND IN PROGRESS.

7. DOING RESEARCH
CHARTS CAN BE USED ON AN INTRADAY (5 MINUTES, 15
MINUTES), HOURLY, DAILY, WEEKLY OR MONTHLY BASIS.
THE CHART YOU STUDY DEPENDS ON HOW LONG YOU
INTEND TO HOLD A POSITION. IF YOU ARE TRADING
SHORT-TERM, YOU MAY WISH TO REFER TO 5-MINUTE OR
15-MINUTE CHARTS. IF YOU INTEND TO HOLD A POSITION
FOR A FEW DAYS, AN HOURLY, 4-HOUR OR DAILY CHART
COULD BE PREFERABLE. WEEKLY AND MONTHLY CHARTS
COMPRESS PRICE MOVEMENTS TO ALLOW FOR MUCH
LONGER-RANGE TREND ANALYSIS.

11. WHAT IS A PIP?
A PIP IS THE MINIMUM FLUCTUATION OF THE
INSTRUMENT BEING PRICED. AT ICM WE HAVE
INTRODUCED 5 DIGIT QUOTES TO ALLOW OUR
CLIENTS TO BENEFIT FROM SMALLER PRICE
INCREMENTS AND MOVES IN THE MARKET. FOR
INSTANCE, INSTEAD OF QUOTING PRICES WITH 4
DIGITS, I.E EURUSD 1.3151/1.3153, WE QUOTE THE
PAIR AT A LOWER SPREAD OF 1.3 AS
1.31508/1.31524.

12. WHAT IS A LOT?
A FOREX LOT IS THE AMOUNT OF CURRENCY YOU BUY OR
SELL. FOR EXAMPLE, IF YOU WISH TO TRADE $100,000, THIS
IS THE SIZE OF THE TRADE. A FOREX LOT IS A
REPRESENTATION OF TRADE SIZE IN A DIFFERENT FORMAT. IN
THIS EXAMPLE, A STANDARD LOT WOULD REPRESENT
100,000 OF ANY CURRENCY.
EUR 100,000 = 1 STANDARD LOT EURO

13. BE WISE, AND YOU CAN
BE THE BEST VERSION OF
YOURSELF.
