30 Day Forex Challenge

You've seen them before... The 30 Day Challenge

30 Day Yoga Challenge
30 Day Gym Challenge
30 Day Abs Challenge
...and so on

These challenges are great for beginners and those looking to get back into the game.  If you already have abs of steel then pick another body part...  but no matter what your ability to pull off just 5 crunches on day 1, it's not about the amount, but the muscle memory, on day 2 you will find that the exercises from day 1 have given you more energy and a new zest for exercise.  Doing is believing!

So how can you apply the concept to Forex?   READ ON

The 30 Day Forex Challenge

Notes: 

• Use a DEMO Account
• Feel free to adjust the pips as you see fit
• You are allowed to skip volatile heavy news days for example FOMC, ECB, NFP
• Don't force yourself to trade.  Look for a setup.  Don't see one?  Check again later.
• You are not allowed to skip chart analysis.  Every day your goal is to find a setup.
  If and only if you have done your best to find a setup and have not found one, meaning the risk is too great then you are allowed to skip that day.
• Bad Trade?  No Problem.  You tried.  Skip that Day and continue with the next.
• Can't always be there when a trade takes place?  Place an entry order!

Remember, it's not about making tons of pips.  It's about making pips, period.  It's about creating a habit, a routine, similar to "muscle memory",  you are training your brain to make trades and feel good from small successes.  Before you know it you'll have big successes!
