Greetings,

Welcome to OU Forex Trader Blog website where quality accessibility to superb Forex products of substance previously unavailable to the masses are located. I have a vision of sharing knowledge and this website allows my dreams of using a professional concept based on honor and integrity.

OU Forex Trader Blog will be off the beaten path, most definitely outside the box, and sharing of pertinent information for all types of students taking the FOREX journey.

“You unlock this door with the key of imagination. Beyond it is another dimension – a dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind. You’re moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You’ve just crossed over into the Twilight Zone!”

Spot FOREX traders certainly appreciate the analogy provided by my opening statement. Those older types with a shade of memory left, remember the well written before it’s time Rod Serling Twilight Zone show in the 1960’s.

Forex trading is about developing patience, learning strict discipline, money management and risk management techniques over a sustained period of time in LIVE current market conditions. You must be focused and remain emotionally detached from the market. Easily stated and much harder to accomplish on a consistent basis.

Those taking the plunge are about to find out about their inner strengths and areas needing work. New to area students will take life long lessons from my:

Psychology of Trading Utilizing Mindset Principles®

Looking up various definitions…. Mindset is a habitual or characteristic mental attitude that determines how you will interpret and respond to situations.

1. A fixed mental attitude or disposition that predetermines a person’s responses to and interpretations of situations.

2. An inclination or a habit.

I finally realized that success is more internal than external. Habits of mind formed by previous experience. I finally learned that it’s not the tools, it’s the person, who determines their own level of success. You must maintain tremendous Focus over the long haul to insure consistent success.

Folks, Learning to trade successfully in spot Forex markets is a marathon, not a 100-meter dash. Reality is such that it doesn’t go away. Success comes with a price. Prepare for a one-to-three year learning curve while gaining enough experience to survive the journey understanding the markets.

That is phase one of the journey. You want to trade for a living? Expect a five-to-seven year overall journey gaining vast experience executing trades in LIVE current market conditions before moving to elite status of Professional Level Trader for a lifetime. Yes, a Professional Trader who is able to change careers for a lifetime.

Many professionals in various fields go to school for six-to-eight years or more. This amount of commitment seems in line with an Ivy League education.

The Forex market will humble you quickly if attempts are made to take shortcuts. There are no shortcuts towards professional success. You must experience the ebb and flow of markets while creating new habits in your sub-conscious mind.

If you stay the course, you will succeed. Each person will cross the finish line at their own pace. It isn’t a race. It becomes a way of life at the pace your schedule and passion permits for learning. You will build the foundation week after week as your experience grows with time.

If you are new to the area, tool around the site, as we’re providing material on a weekly/monthly basis. If you are a current member, Use the force. Trust your instincts. Have fun learning. Check out all the tools being provided. The massive power point modules are being constructed for our FOREX educational portal. The information is awesome. The classes are archived for those with various schedules.

Enjoy the journey. You are developing a specific practice regimen enhancing growth of Forex skills. Coach Bill Parcells keeps it all in perspective: Success is never final. -Never- There is always more to do.

Thanks for visiting and Godspeed,

Forex Joe

IMPORTANT: The risk of loss in trading futures, options, cash currencies and other leveraged transaction products can be substantial. Therefore only "risk capital" should be used. Futures, options, cash currencies and other leveraged transaction products are not suitable investments for everyone. The valuation of futures, options, cash currencies and other leveraged transaction products may fluctuate and as a result clients may lose more than the amount originally invested and may also have to pay more later. Consider your financial condition before deciding to invest or trade
