Advise to someone struggling with consistency?

I was wondering what you would advise to someone struggling with consistency – to trade only one currency pair and focus on it, or look at a few pairs at the same time for more opportunities?

You probably should elaborate more on exactly what you are struggling with. Consistency is a broad category.

[quote=dkrock;13139917]I did not start winning consistently until I started averaging price and comparing it to current price. After I saw how the Level II platform works and compared it to the graph retail traders use, it was like apples and oranges.

where are you getting accurate level 2 pricing for forex?

It completely depends on your psychological make up. For me, sticking to one pair for a while works when I am trying to come out of a slump and I have to keep it super-simple and not over-trade, but you need a lot of patience to do that. For other traders, sticking to one pair would be a disaster but an alternative would be sticking to one set-up on multiple pairs as long as risk was spread if more than more position was taken at a time...

Get the whole feel of the market...for example is usd rising or falling vs all pairs...if it is falling it is weak and you can buy gold or any other strong currency if your technical analysis points towards that.
That being said avoid midweek trading if you can especially if you don't have consistency..market moves mostly Mondays and Fridays..thursdays also.. you make money then without waiting too long and hitting stop losses.
Only 1 technique I have for midweek trading
