Start with a learning budget

• Currency trading may often appear like gambling to those who are not familiar with the wild fluctuations and seemingly random volatility of the currency market. It is, however not the place to gamble. If you are interested in investing your money in currencies, it is essential to determine the amount of money that you can safely invest.

• Make a firm budget and stick with it. Then write down an overall plan that you will use to guide your trading. Set specific timelines for your goals. Decide which strategies you will use and track the success or failure of each one. Don't be afraid to stop using any method that doesn't work.

Trade with a demo account

• The best way to evaluate your skills as a currency trader, without any risk to your capital, is to start trading on a demo account. These accounts are widely available online, and they allow you to make virtual trades using virtual money.

• You can assess how your strategies are working with no risk of losing money. You will gain valuable insights into the workings of the currency market which you can use to tweak your trading strategies.

Get familiar with the different Currency Pairs

• Your most important job as a new currency trader is to keep track of trends for the currency pair you have chosen to trade. Find characteristics about how the pair has trended over a period of several years.
