• Trading in the Forex market is a challenging opportunity where above-average returns are available to those educated and experienced investors who are willing to take above-average risk.

• However, before deciding to participate in Forex markets, traders should carefully consider the investment objectives and scope, the required level of experience and risk abilities that should be available, and the most important factor is to take into consideration not to invest capital, if you can not afford its loss.

• In addition to the “Market Risk” associated with adverse price movement, there is a number of other “Risk Factors” that are inherent to online trading, whether manual trading or regular automated trading concepts available in some platforms.

Purpose

• By going through all previous points, ForexGen reached to some certain findings that aim to give traders the possibility to participate in the Forex industry with potentials in actually gaining money form the market and not often losing, this can be done by introducing the concept of “Automated Trading System”.

• The goal of building this system is to replace the human involvement in trading and relieve the individual trader from the emotional, physical and psychological stresses of manual trading and the tedious monitoring responsibilities of running an expert advisor on a platform. • The strategies embedded inside the system enables it to self-adjust to follow trending and ranging markets by using complex and sophisticated “market specific” trading algorithms and logic to analyze different price structure and movements resulting in self-adapting to the constant change in market conditions.

• The system has the capabilities to trade major currency pairs like (EUR/USD, USD/JPY, GBP/USD and USD/CHF) and any other pairs available in the Forex market .

Pivot Calculator

Pivot Calculator

The pivot calculator is defined as a technical indicator that is produced by calculating the numerical average of a particular currency pairs high, low and closing prices.
To calculate pivot points, the pivot point itself will be considered as the primary support/resistance level.
Meaning that the largest price movement will occur at this level.
The other support ad resistance levels have less important, but still can generate significant price movements.
Pivot points can be used in two ways.
The first way is to determine the expected overall market trend.
If the pivot point level broke in an upward price movement, then the next large move in the market is expected to be bullish move, and if the pivot point level broke in a downward price movement, then the next large move in the market is expected to be bearish move.

Forex Terminology

Every trader in the Foreign Exchange ‘FOREX’ hopes to make a profit from something called ‘PIP’.
It may sound silly, but gains in pips can potentially make you over wealthy . Take your time with this information, as it is required knowledge for all Forex traders.
Don’t even think about trading until you are comfortable with pip values and calculating profit and loss.

What is a pip ?
Pips stands for ‘PERCENTAGE IN PIONTS’. In the Forex trading, a ‘PIP’ is a unit of measurement which represents the smallest change in the price of currency or a currency pair. In the stock markets this is a classified as a ‘POINT’.
As a result, some folks refer to pips as points.
Pips are the last decimal point in an exchange rate or currency pair.
For the majority of currencies a ‘PIP’ is equal to 0.0001.
This means that if you purchased USD/CHF at 1.2310 and sold at 1.2330, you made 20 pips

USD/JPY: 110.78 .01 divided by exchange rate = pip value
USD/CHF: 1.1227 .0001 divided by exchange rate = pip value
GBP/USD: 1.9799 .0001 divided by exchange rate = pip value

Simple Moving Average

2008-06-17T09:22:00Z

Simple Moving Average

the simple moving average is formed by calculating the average price of a security over a particular number of periods.

While it is possible to create moving averages from the Open, the High and the Low data points, most moving averages are created using the closing price.

For example: a 4-day simple moving average is calculated by adding the closing prices for the last 4 days and dividing the total by 4.

11+ 12 + 13 + 14 = 50

(50 / 4) = 12.5

Exponential Moving Average

2008-06-17T09:15:00Z

Exponential Moving Average

Exponential Moving Average (EMA) In order to reduce the lag in simple moving averages, technicians often use exponential moving averages (also called exponentially weighted moving averages).

exponential moving average reduce the lag by applying more weight to recent prices relative to older prices.

The weighting applied to the most recent price depends on the specified period of the moving average.
The shorter the exponential moving average’s period, the more weight that will be applied to the most recent price.
For example: a 10-period exponential moving average weighs the most recent price 18.18% while a 20-period EMA weighs the most recent price 9.52%. As we will see, the calculating and exponential moving average is much harder than calculating an simple moving average.

The important thing to remember is that the exponential moving average puts more weight on recent prices. And so it will react quicker to recent price changes than a simple moving average.
