FOREX trading, online foreign exchange trading, foreign currency trading and Forex options trading involves risk of loss and is not appropriate for all investors. Each investor must consider whether this is a suitable investment. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

Forex trading has large potential rewards, but also large potential risk. You must be aware of the risks and be willing to accept them in order to invest in the Forex market. Do not trade with money you can't afford to lose. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those discussed on this presentation. The past performance of any trading system or methodology is not necessarily indicative of future results.

Trading foreign currencies is a challenging and potentially profitable opportunity for educated and experienced investors. However, before deciding to participate in the Forex market, you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience and risk appetite. There is considerable exposure to risk in any foreign exchange transaction. Any transaction involving currencies involves risks including, but not limited to, the potential for changing political and/or economic conditions that may substantially affect the price or liquidity of a currency. Moreover, the leveraged nature of Forex trading means that any market movement will have an equally proportional effect on your deposited funds. This may work against you as well as for you. The possibility exists that you could sustain a total loss of initial margin funds and your position will be liquidated and you will be responsible for any resulting losses. Investors are recommended to lower exposure to risk by employing risk-reducing strategies such as 'stop-loss' or 'limit' orders.

CFTC RULE 4:41

HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS HAVE MANY INHERENT LIMITATIONS, SOME OF WHICH ARE DESCRIBED BELOW. NO REPRESENTATION IS BEING MADE THAT ANY ACCOUNT WILL OR IS LIKELY TO ACHIEVE PROFITS OR LOSSES SIMILAR TO THOSE SHOWN. IN FACT, THERE ARE FREQUENTLY SHARP DIFFERENCES BETWEEN HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND THE ACTUAL RESULTS SUBSEQUENTLY ACHIEVED BY ANY PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM.

ONE OF THE LIMITATIONS OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS IS THAT THEY ARE GENERALLY PREPARED WITH THE BENEFIT OF HINDSIGHT. IN ADDITION, HYPOTHETICAL TRADING DOES NOT INVOLVE FINANCIAL RISK, AND NO HYPOTHETICAL TRADING RECORD CAN COMPLETELY ACCOUNT FOR THE IMPACT OF FINANCIAL RISK IN ACTUAL TRADING. FOR EXAMPLE, THE ABILITY TO WITHSTAND LOSSES OR TO ADHERE TO A PARTICULAR TRADING PROGRAM IN SPITE OF TRADING LOSSES ARE MATERIAL POINTS WHICH CAN ALSO ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS. THERE ARE NUMEROUS OTHER FACTORS RELATED TO THE MARKETS IN GENERAL OR TO THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ANY SPECIFIC TRADING PROGRAM WHICH CANNOT BE FULLY ACCOUNTED FOR IN THE PREPARATION OF HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE RESULTS AND ALL OF WHICH CAN ADVERSELY AFFECT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS.

FX Accucharts

Charting is an essential tool for any forex trading strategy. I use FX Accucharts which are FREE from FX Solutions UK (fxsol.co.uk) if you open a DEMO account.

The Forex Renko Charts FX Trading System uses FX

Accucharts. All of the technical setups and parameters you will read about in this book are based on FX Accucharts.

FX Accucharts provides the forex trader the

convenience of trading and analysis together by allowing traders to place trades from the charts.

FX Accucharts is fully customizable to fit and

complement your forex trading style.

Renko Bar Basics

How is a 10 pip renko bar formed?

1. A new green (UP) renko bar forms only after the current price surpasses the top of the previous renko bar by 10 pips.

2. Green renko bars open on the bottom of the bar and close on the top of the bar. Green renko bars display the closing price which is also the HIGH price for this green renko bar.

3. A new red (DOWN) renko bar forms only after the current price surpasses the bottom of the previous renko bar by 10 pips.

4. Red renko bars open on the top of the bar and close on the bottom of the bar. Red renko bars display closing price which is also the LOW price for this red renko bar

Renko Bar Advantages

Renko Bar Charts offer the following advantages: 1. Visual Appeal 2. Zero Indicators 3. Objective Decision-Making Process 4. Filters Out Market Noise, i.e. “whipsaws” 5. Displays Areas Of Support And Resistance 6. Based On Price Action (movement of prices)

Renko bars remove the “distractions” seen on

typical bar or candlestick charts. These distractions include “whipsaws” such as long wicks, false breakouts and price volatility.

Renko bars clearly define current trend and

key price levels such as support & resistance and trend reversals.

#1 Buy Setup Rules

A #1 Buy Setup represents a pullback in a current trend. Look for the following:

1. A trend (x-y) or sequence of green renko bars followed by a pullback (y-z) of red renko bars.

2. Wait patiently for the 1st green renko bar (Trigger Bar) to close immediately following the pullback. Enter trade here.

3. Make sure the last red renko bar (z) on the chart is higher than the last red renko bar in the previous pullback (x).

4. This setup is a higher swing low. Place your stop loss underneath this higher swing low (z) or the previous swing low (x)

A #1 Sell Setup represents a pullback in a current trend. Look for the following:

2. Wait patiently for the 1st red renko bar (Trigger Bar) to close immediately following the pullback. Enter trade here.

3. Make sure the last green renko bar (z) on the chart is lower than the last green renko bar in the previous pullback (x).

4. This setup is a lower swing high. Place your stop loss above this lower swing high (z) or above the previous swing high (x)

Trade Exits Trade Exits are a very important function of a

trader’s profit/loss performance. Ideally each individual forex trader needs to find an exit strategy which fits his/her trading personality and trading objectives.

Whether you are a Scalper, Swing or Position

trader, you need to experiment with your trade exits in an effort to maximize your profits.

Scalping: I suggest starting with 3 to 5 Renko

Bars or a 10 to 15 pip stop loss and using a 1:1 take profit or use a 10 pip trailing stop loss set on initial 15 pip stop loss.

Swing: I suggest starting with a 3 Renko Bar or 30

pip stop loss and using a 1:1 or 2:1 take profit or use a 10 pip trailing stop loss set on initial 30 pip stop loss.

Position: I suggest starting with a 3 Renko Bar or

75 pip stop loss and using a 1:1 or 2:1 take profit or use a 10 pip trailing stop loss set on initial 75 pip stop loss.

Money Management

Keep your % risk the same for each trade. 1. Conservative: 0.5 % - 1.0 % 2. Moderate: 1.0 % – 3.0 % 3. Aggressive: 3.0 % - 5.0 %

Start conservative until you develop the

discipline to recognize the 4 FX trade setups and execute them without making any mistakes.

Adjust your % Risk each Week. This

approach will protect your trading capital when you are losing trades, and allow you to grow your capital faster when you are winning trades.

Always keep your % Risk where you decide

it needs to be. Adjust your position size if you need to use a larger stop loss. Do not use a larger % Risk with larger stop loss.

Summary

Quick Summary:

A key point to keep in mind, Renko Bar Charts are not an exact science. Trade the “direction” and be flexible with your stop loss placement. Give your trades room to breathe.

Successful FX traders are patient and disciplined.

You now have the tools to succeed. You are 100% responsible for your FX trading success and you can achieve it by believing in yourself. If you fall down, get back up. Winners never Quit.

There is no Holy Grail. Successful FX trading

begins in your mind. Develop patience and discipline. Apply yourself 100% to the 2 FX trading concepts in this manual.

YOU can do it!

Additional Notes

You do NOT have to use FX Accucharts. Feel free to use ANY renko charts.

I do not place any trades with FX Solutions, I only

use their free forex charts. I have been using their charts for 5+ years.

I watch the FX Accucharts for my renko bar setups and manually enter any scalping trades on the FX Broker I am currently using.

I will sometimes enter pending orders if I am using larger renko box sizes such as 25, 33 or 50 pip for position trading.
