Day Trading and Swing Trading the Currency Market



Since the first edition of Day Trading the Currency Market, which
was published in 2005, the foreign exchange market has changed dramatically.
The most notable change is the fact that daily average volume
now exceeds $3 trillion, a 70 percent jump over the past three years.
As a direct result of this surge in interest, more participants have flooded
the markets with different ways to trade currencies.
The popularity of the Day Trading the Currency Market book has encouraged
me to give the second edition a twist�this time I have added
swing trading strategies!
After having taught seminars across the country on how to trade currencies,
I have received a lot of good feedback about the book (thank you!),
and I hope that everyone will enjoy the new techniques in the second edition
just as much as you have enjoyed the strategies and lessons in the first!
The original book focuses heavily on fundamentals, but the new edition
includes chapters on trading methodologies, statistical analysis, and,
of course, additional strategies.
I have also added comprehensive sections on how to trade like a hedge
fund manager and the impact of seasonality in the currency market.
If you are picking up a copy of Day Trading and Swing Trading the
Currency Market for the very first time, you will not be disappointed. As a
trader first and an analyst second, in this book I focus on what matters most
to currency traders. The first edition has been one of the top resources for
those looking for a good primer on how the currency markets work�the
technical and fundamental drivers as well as actionable trading strategies.
There is something for everyone in this book, as it is designed for both
the beginner and the advanced trader. In this book, I try to accomplish two
major goals: to touch on the basics of the FX market and the currency characteristics
that all traders, particularly day traders, need to know, as well
as to give you practical strategies to start trading. Day Trading and Swing
Trading the Currency Market goes beyond what other currency trading
books cover and delves into such interesting topics as the top marketmoving
indicators for the U.S. dollar and what currency correlations are
and how to use them. Here�s a brief road map to whet your appetite on the
topics covered in this book.
