Hi everyone,
Hi everyone,
I was thinking of creating a blog for forex. But i do not know what to add into it, except for some daily rss feeds from websites and my own trading ideas. Maybe a bit of free ebooks to share. What else do you think i should add into my blog? Thanks.
You will need RSS feeds from international news and national news sites…those events drive confidence in currencies.
Even the world weather can be key. If you're investing in, say, Colombian currency just before a big rain…the price of coffee's going to plummet and that's the big (legal) export there.
Figure out what events comprise the causal chain which affect currencies, and give folks the scoop before it happens. If you really have stones, prognosticate.
Calendar of government economic reports/releases for the major countries / currency pairs.
Let me know when it's up. Email me.
Trading on virtual servers. Pretty much anything educational, ebooks are always a great idea. Definitely section about EA's….
Your own returns. Advice is only as good as the giver.
I think it really depends on your aim for having this blog…
Some traders keep a blog to remind themselves of the reasons why they enter into trades… they would then obviously keep a journal of their trade entry criteria, and the resultant win or loss.
Others keep a blog to post up useful articles on Forex trading, and earn money from advertisements that are placed on the blog.
In deciding the content you want to add to your blog, think about who your target readers are, and the rest should come naturally:
Are you targetting new traders? Or existing traders?
Or are you targetting readers who are interested in money-making as a whole?
These questions are just some of the many you may like to ask yourself.
