    About this ebook

    This is for those looking to “Get Started in Forex”. The number of topics or talking points are vast and learning how to become a proficient forex trader is a process that takes years to master. This wasn’t written with the intent to be a forex trading manual; however, I’ve done my very best to cover every relevant topic as to give the reader a foundational understanding of where to begin.

      Preface

      As the title implies this book was written for those looking to Get Started in Forex. The number of topics or talking points are vast and learning how to become a proficient forex trader is a process that takes years to master. This wasn’t written with the intent to be a forex trading manual; however, I’ve done my very best to cover every relevant topic as to give the reader a foundational understanding of how to get started.

      Trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing financial security or life style. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

      Financial freedom is available for those who learn about it and work for it.
