Forex tip for beginners

Forex market might look quite lucrative, but trading in forex needs a lot of precautions. May be even more than Stock market. This is mainly because of the power of leverage. In most forex platforms you can leverage your money upto 200 times. While this means more money for you if your tarde does well, this also means that you are risking more with each trade.

If you are exploring online earning opportunities where one can earn 1000′s  of dollars from your home PC; trading forex online could be the option you are looking for.  The word trading is usually associated with risk, due the ups & downs of the stock market. Here, we are not talking of stock trading but trading in foreign currencies through forex platforms.

Forex markets are a much safer bet than stock due the facts mentioned below:

• Unlike stock market, up or down forex signals does not affect your earning potential. When a currency pair is going down one can make profit by selling it & vice versa when the currency pair is going up.
• The forex market stays open throughout the day; this increases the earning potential & decreases the risk.
• Most online forex accounts come with a stop loss mechanism. This means that you can never loose more money than that you have invested in that particular trade. We can also manually set much lower stop loss levels.
• One need not pay brokerage or commission charges for forex trade.
• Personally, I like the leverage in forex trade (also known as FX trade). In stock market one can get a leverage of 2:1 whereas forex brokers give you a leverage of up to 400:1. This means that smaller investments can get higher returns. (Higher leverage also means higher risk)

The challenge that we face is to learn to the new skills like – forex trade, forex signals, forex calendars & decipher forex charts & forex news.

Travel Tips

Marketing activities have forced me to travel much more than my liking to various destinations. There is no denying that I usually get an adrenaline rush while traveling to new places, however travel can also be equally frustrating due of unanticipated circumstance. From my experience & valuable contributions from my colleagues of Jindal School of Hotel Management, here is a list of tips for travelers both domestic & international.

Tips for packing

• Despite being a frequent traveler, I often forget to pack important things. A simple check list will be of great help. Things that I have missed most are : visiting cards, small iron, foldable umbrella, belt & battery charger for camera.
• Rolling up clothes instead of stacking them , helps me to accommodate more in less space.
• I make a conscious effort to wear the biggest/ heaviest shoe & coat for travel. This will reduce considerable weight of the luggage & saves space too !
