READING THE CORRELATION TABLE

With this knowledge of correlation, let's look at the following tables, each showing correlations between the major currency pairs during the month of February 2010.
The upper table above shows that over the month of February (one month) EUR/USD and GBP/USD had a very strong positive correlation of 0.95. This implies that when the EUR/USD rallies, the GBP/USD has also rallied 95% of the time. Over the past 6 months though, the correlation was weaker (0.66) but in the long run (1 year) the two currency pairs still have a strong correlation.

How to Use Bollinger Bands

Congratulations!  You have made it to the 5th grade! Each time you make it to the next grade you continue to add more and more tools to your trader’s toolbox.
“What’s a trader’s toolbox?” you may ask.
 It is simple!
Compare trading with a brick building of home.  Which tools is used to the building? You wouldn’t use a hammer on a screw, right? Nor would you use a buzz saw to drive in nails. There’s a proper tool for each situation.
It is similar to in trading business, some trading tools and indicators are best used in particular environments or situations. So, the more tools you have, the better you can adapt to the ever-changing market environment.
Or if you want to focus on a few specific trading environments or tools, that’s cool too. It’s good to have a specialist when installing your electricity or plumbing in a house, just like it’s cool to be a Bollinger Band or Moving Average expert.
There are billions different ways to grab some pips!
For this lesson, as you learn about these indicators, think of each as a new tool that you can add to that toolbox of yours.
You need not use all of these tools, but it’s always nice to have plenty of options, right? You might even find one that you understand and comfortable enough to master on its own. It is enough discussed.
Now, come to start!

What is a Japanese Candlestick?

As we briefly discussed Japanese candlestick charting analysis in the previous FOREX LESSON, we’ll now dig in a little and talk them more in detail. Let’s do a quick review first.

PLOTTING FOREX SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE

An important thing to keep in mind that support and resistance levels are not exact numbers.
Often times you will see a support or resistance level that appears broken, but soon after find out that the market was just testing it. With candlestick charts, these “tests” of support and resistance are usually represented by the candlestick shadows.

Notice how the shadows of the candles tested the 1.4700 support level. At those times it seemed like the market was “breaking” support. In hindsight we can see that the market was merely testing that level.

FOREX SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE

This is one of the most widely used concepts in FOREX TRADING. Surprisingly, everyone seems to have their own idea on how you should measure FOREX support and resistance.
Let’s see the basics first.

Put your eye before the diagram above. As you visualize, this zigzag pattern is making its way up (bull market). If the FOREX market moves up and then pulls back, the highest point reached before it pulled back is now resistance.

As the market continues up again, the lowest point reached before it started back is now support. In this way, resistance and support are spontaneously formed as the FOREX market oscillates over time. The reverse is correct for the downtrend.
