A Checklist for Successful Trading

Making smart trading decisions isn't rocket science, but it is there is a lot you need to think about.  Here is a checklist that you can use to make sure you are making good, sound trades. 

• The Risk-Reward Ratio is at least 1:2.  This means that  if you risk 50 pips on a trade, the realistic target is 100 pips.
• Look for areas of previous support and resistance.  Either horizontal, ema psychological areas or fibs.  When several of this converge in an area, price is even more likely to react.
• Look to trade with the trend.
• Look for the macd to support your trade idea.  There should be divergence.
• Look at stochastics to be in favour of you trade idea.  It should show that that pair is either overbought or oversold.
• Risk only 1% of your account.
• Trade with discipline and patience.  Make a plan to place a trade at a certain price based on the checklist above, and wait for the price to come to you.
