Hi traders,
I too agree with it .I was from Mumbai,now settled in south.I started with 100$ in forex .The strategy i used was hedging.Take 2 opposite positions ie buy and sell the same currency pair(gbpusd).once it reaches d resistance,see how it tests the resistance.Then close the long positions and wait for the market to come down so as to close the short position.It was a very successful strategy during volatile times.My initial deposit of 100 became 500 $ in 2 months and I increased my investment 4 times.There i started to loose money when the market started to trend.I realised that hedging doesnt work in trending markets after burning my fingers.Now for the last 3 months Iam making consistent profits through straddle trading (100-200 pips per mnth)In my opinion there are no sure shot methods in forex.Whatever you do,do it with discipline and consistency .Want to know your views on straddling method(news trading or spike trading)if we share our views on a daily basis would have been really good.my mail id is roney at the rate rediff.Feel free to contact me.
