We had covered several important topics this week – Money Management, Risk Management, Correct Use of Stops, Position Sizing, how much to risk in your trades, and other topics – all of these topics are designed to encourage our members to follow a trading plan and money management policies, incorporating both risk management and money management together in their trading. Without it, your trading plan is incomplete. Incorporating money management into technical analysis and day to day trading requires taking advantage of technical systems and strategies which enable us to follow these principles. Before you take the trade, you are in control – once you pull the trigger, however, the market takes over and you are no longer in control of the outcome. Trading a game of probabilities – so you should control whatever factors you can. The only factors still in our hands after a trade is initiated are Risk Management and Money Management. What I have covered today are the basics – the fundamental stepping stones of what we follow here in our Live Forex Trading Room – and next week we will return to cover more trades based on our techniques, more setups, and more interesting discussions.

In the event the price fluctuates a great deal the Donchian channel is going to be wider. Its principal use, however, is made for offering alerts for long and short positions. In cases where a market trades above its highest n day high, then a long is established. In case it trades below its lowest n day low, then a short is established. The Donchian Bands are determined in basic formulas: Upper Band = Highest High of X periods Lower Band = Lowest Low of X periods X is the calculation period of the Donchian Bands.
