Forex Trading

Part 3: Trading with the Weekly High and Low

This book is Part 3 of the series "Forex Trading", by Heikin Ashi Trader

As is well known, currency markets are determined by news. However, since news is rare, most currency pairs move sideways 80% of the time. In other words: it is very difficult to trade currencies profitably with trend strategies. The "Forex Trading" series therefore deals with strategies that are specifically designed for sideways markets.

The highs and lows of the past days or weeks represent significant levels in the chart. If the market approaches a similar price level again in the following week, it automatically attracts the attention of market participants. When this happens, the question arises, as to whether or not the market will turn again at this level (as in the previous week)?

In this short eBook, Heikin Ashi Trader introduces two simple forex strategies, using the weekly high and low. They are easy to understand and implement (even with small accounts). These two methods are therefore excellent for traders who are looking for forex strategies that can be successfully traded without the need for much analysis.
