Conditional Orders

Conditional orders are triggered when the market price reaches the price specified in the order. When this happens, the client’s initial order is activated, requesting that the order be filled at the specified price. Under normal market conditions, ForexGen will honor the specified price on conditional orders of up to 100 mini or 10 standard lots.

Larger orders as well as orders executed in extremely volatile markets will be executed at the next available quote if the market has passed over the requested price. This is known to occur over the weekend, when Sunday’s opening price is sometimes significantly different from Friday’s closing and during major market moves.

Forex Trend Following with ForexGen

The most lucrative form of trading is locking into and following long term trends in forex that can last for months or years. Most traders have no idea how to profit from forex trend following so we will show you how to do it in 5 simple steps.
1. Be Selective
The first point to keep in mind is that the big trades don’t come around very often so you need to be patient and selective. You don’t get rewarded for trading frequently; you get rewarded for being right.
You can trade less than a dozen times a year and make triple digit gains, if you pick the right trades. So don’t be tempted to get in the market for the sake of it be patient.
2. Watch Breakouts
Forget buying low and selling high – most great trends start from new market highs and you have to be ready to buy these breaks.
If you wait for a pullback you will simply miss the best trends, because when a new trend breaks out - it moves quickly.
The best risk/ reward is offered on the these breaks. Most traders can’t buy breakouts, as they want to buy at a lower better price and wait for a pullback and they never get in and miss the trade.
3. Use a Simple System
To trend follow and catch breakouts you don’t need a complicated system.
All you need to understand are basic trend lines and the concept of support and resistance and that’s it.
A simple forex trading system is best, as it’s easy to understand and easy to apply – if you complicate your system, it will be less robust and will have too many elements which will break in trading.
All the best forex trading systems are simple and yours should be to.
4. Trade Valid Support and resistance only
Keep in mind, you only want to trade breaks that are considered important by the market.
This means that levels have been tested several times, in at least two time frames, preferably a few months.
When these levels are broken, chances are there are stops behind the level wating to be hit and new trend followers waiting to kick in which will accelerate the price trend.
5. Confirm – Confirm – Confirm!
Make sure that any breakout is confirmed by momentum oscillators – this will ensure you filter out false breakouts.
