Managing Risk in the Marketplace

With this in mind, it is important to attempt to manage your risk while trading. Below, are a few of the various steps you can take to potentially manage your risk exposure.

Risk Management Order

When traders act on impulse, they can forget to consider crucial risk management strategies such as their stop loss orders. These orders should be considered on the trades you make.

Triggered at a pre-determined price point set by you, stop losses aim to limit your losses, depending on the level at which they are executed.

Through your trading strategy, you should consider what you are willing to realistically lose or risk and this is typically where you can consider coordinating your stop loss order level to.*  

Analyze the Markets

Market analysis offers a range of potential catalysts to take into consideration; from major economic reports, news and events to natural disasters.

Regardless of a traders' analysis style, historical data - such as price movements - and past news feeds should be fully analyzed in order to understand a particular market/currency.

Summary

FX trading involves a substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors.

Prior to trading, put in place a trading strategy and gain extensive knowledge of your chosen currency. When you start to trade, utilize the various risk management tools available and be realistic in your trade sizes.
