The long-term kind of trade can be carried to investment more likely. But for such kind of trade it is very important to have enough big deposit, capable to sustain large to a procorf, differently most likely you simply will merge the account. What advantages of such kind of trade? For example, unlike scalping where for each transaction you give quite good percent to the broker, transaction opening for the long period will help you to save the considerable sum on a spread. For example, you have made hundred transactions for a day, at you very successful day, but for each transaction you have given percent at a rate of dollar. That is the percent given to the broker, as a result has made hundred dollars. Agree that it much, even considering profit. The long-term investment, helps to avoid the similar costs raised for broker services.

But accurately made forecast, can bring to 5000 points have arrived in a year, depending on the chosen currency. For example, exotic currencies can fluctuate to several tens thousand points a year. And if to look the schedule of the British Pound from 1985 year on 1988 it is possible to see that the pound has grown from a mark 1.0000 to a mark 2.0000 then it some more time rose to this level and rolled away. That is, for 3 years, even trading on 3 prizes, the profit would make 30000 dollars, on 10000 dollars a year. Therefore also it is possible to name the given kind of trade investment. But psychologically to sustain such position, the universal patience, or presence of the foreign capital is required to you truly. It is not necessary to invest last savings in such position as the risk of an error exists always. In general never it is necessary to play on forex trading on last money as moral pressure is not becomes simply taken out. As to methods of the analysis of the forex market, applied to opening of a long trading position, they the same, as on scalping, and on the trade.

For example, to take indicator MACD. It represents 2 lines of the sliding average, the first with the short value, the second with long-term which are simultaneously displayed on the schedule histogram. At occurrence enough big divergence the drawing with the indicator, is formed a signal on purchase or sale. If thus also to lean against signals oscillator, the forecast will be more true. And occurrence double divergence, that is a simultaneous divergence of two indicators with the schedule of the prices, is, perhaps, the best signal for the introduction into the market. Also it is recommended by forex broker to test indicator MACD on different time schedules, and will establish suitable values for more objective display of a market situation. Apparently from the aforesaid, the method of long-term trade has both the pluses, and the lacks. It is possible to carry to pluses one-time spread and commission collection. The risk concerns minuses not keep until a position up to the end. In any case to be engaged scalping or to invest for long term, to solve to you, the main thing is to get to a trend.
