Online Forex Trading

If there is one story recommend any trader previously shows it’s the report of “the turtles” – this group of traders learned how to trade in just 14 days and went on to make millions and the manner they did may surprise you. First let’s go through the history of the turtle story. In 1983 Legendary trade Richard Dennis decided to prove that anyone could learn to trade. He then picked a diverse group of men to prove his point. They included an impersonator, a security card a boy fresh out of school and an auditor, to name but a few. In 14 days he will teach them his method, a set of money management rules and set them off to trade.

Let’s see the result?

They made Dennis $100 million dollars, proved his point that anyone could learn to trade and went on to become some of the most famous traders of all time!

There are several points that any novice trader can learn and make their Forex education a lot easier, so here are the salient points to keep in mind.

1. They Did it quickly

14 days and then traded and made millions!

Not bad at all and Dennis concentrated on teaching them only what they needed to know no filler and no knowledge for the sake of knowledge. Keep in mind you get paid for being right in trading not for the hours you put in.

2. They Kept It easy.

The system they were taught by Dennis was simple, and this was deliberate – it’s a proven fact that simple systems presently cause better than complicated ones and just as importantly, they’re easier to understand and have confidence in.

3. Discipline

Dennis did not just teach them how to apply a method he taught them how to execute the method with discipline.

This is vitally important to any trader if you can’t execute your method with discipline then you have no method!

4. Money management

They were also given strict money management rules to preserve equity and not to take calculated risks when the time was right.

An interesting fact.

Whilst they all did well – some traders did far better than others, and this is a great illustration of the importance of mindset. Trading is not just about method it’s about having the right mindset to make it work.

Trading success does actually come from within as much as learning a great method.

The turtles proved anyone could learn a method, and anyone can trade – so if you have the desire you can do it to. You can see to form the above example that if you work smart not hard and get a method you have certainty in, you can trade and win.

You may not become as rich as the turtles, but you should look at their story up and read it – as not only is it interesting, its very inspiring and should be an essential part of any novice trade’s forex education.
