When we spot a trade, we post the details in the trading room, this is an 'immediate' entry alert, so you need to place your trade as soon as possible, we also send you a text message to let you know an update has been made to the trading room so you do not have to be watching a screen all day.
You may want to set your trades to 'roll over' in IGindex as some trades late in the day have been known to go beyond the settlement time of 8PM GMT, if you do not set this your trade will be closed out.

We aim for a high strike rate (which does not necessarily help you profit but is good for your emotions which is where the majority of traders fail) and aim for a reasonable set profit target on each trade, these forex trades can sometimes take a few hours to reach a conclusion. Each forex trade alert we send you will have a recommended stop loss of around 40 pips on all trades. This gives the trade plenty of breathing space to be successful. You should never risk more than 5% of your bank on a single trade, 2% to be ultra safe. As an example:
Let's say you have a £5,000 starting bank. 5% is £250 (£5,000 / 100 x 5 = 250), so you never 'risk' more than £250 per trade.
Never risk more than 5% of your trading bank.
Now you have your figure to 'risk' per trade, with a 40 point 'stop loss' per trade, simply divide your £250 to 'risk' by 40 points = £6.25 stake per point. You can then re-calculate this every week or month as your bank changes. An alternative is to adjust your stake depending on the risk for each individual trade. So, if you have a trade with a stop loss risk of 70 pips and 5% of your bank was £250, simply divide your £250 by 70 = £3.12 stake per pip. This method can compound your bank whilst also ensuring you never risk more than 5% per trade, it also returns approximately double the income of option one above! The only downside is when you hit a loser as you will be using a higher stake, therefore a bigger loss.
Strict risk management is crucial to your success, bust your bank and you cant trade, simple as that! Practice sensible risk management and compound your bank gradually over time and you will make a significant income for a long time to come.
