Preferred market analysis

Fundamental analysis involving current macroeconomic data and geopolitical events, analysis of changes in monetary policies, central banks’ minutes, historical analysis of major economic reports, correlation analysis.

Risk-seeking aggressive intraday trading with tight money management, momentum trading.

Arthur reckons that a profitable trading strategy is a brainchild of the trader finely combining market knowledge and trading experience.

“The most difficult thing for a rookie trader is to understand that losing trades is part and parcel of consistent profitable trading. Although it is a very simple concept, it takes years of patience and hard work to put this fact into practice.”

Jordan Green - Tickmill Market Expert

Preferred market analysis

Jordan employs complex correlation and asymmetric risk-reward strategies on a medium to long-term time horizon.

Trading style

While Jordan has traded FX futures and options products for more than 10 years, he has been more active on the spot FX markets just the past 5 years. He finds the leveraged spot FX markets riskier than the futures markets but at the same time likes the extra profit potential it gives to the disciplined traders.

“I have experienced both ups and downs during my trading career and enjoy sharing this experience with my fellow traders.”

Sudhanshu Agarwal - Tickmill CEO

Preferred market analysis

Fundamental Analysis as the basis for the macro environment and picking a list of instruments to trade while the Technical Analysis then gives the entry and exit criteria for the specific trades.

Trading style

The trading styles have changed along with the time commitments to work, my trades have varied in length from short-term to long-term and anything in between. However, the key aspect that stayed the same over the years is that there must be a specific trading plan developed and it should be followed precisely.

“If I see an opportunity and my trading plan suggests that there is a trade, I definitely take it. My trading philosophy has always revolved around risk management.”

STOP your loss

by : Sudhanshu Agarwal

Learning to accept the risk.Placing stop losses is very crucial to trading.

I have never come across a successful directional or short term trader, who traded without any stops. It is a very important risk management tool. There are traders who hold positions for months, or even years and they do trade without physical stops in the market, however, after speaking with them, they have confessed that they still follow the market and do have a mental stop

By placing a stop loss, psychologically you are admitting that you believe that this could be a losing trade. It is very hard for someone to accept that, but once you accept the fact that not all trades are going to be winners and that even seasoned professionals take losses all the time, it becomes easier to accept and place a stop.

I should, however, emphasise that there should always be a strategy behind placing the stop. There are different reasons that people use and let me share some of them with you

The mistake: No margin for volatility.
