Can you illustrate more specifically how a trade is structured and how profits are calculated?

Let's consider a hypothetical example that is actually very realistic of how you could trade the British Pounds / US Dollar which is quoted in Dollar per Pound:
1. You have $2,000 in a trading account
2. You identify a high-probability BUY opportunity
3. You BUY 1 lot of 200,000 Pound/Dollar at 1.5660
4. You calculate potential 80-pip profit and place a limit order at 1.5740
5. You calculate potential 40-pip loss and place a stop order at 1.5620
6. Few hours later, Pounds rallies to 1.5730, stalls and begins to reverse
7. You SELL your one lot at 1.5720 to lock in a 60-pip profit

Let's analyze:
You BOUGHT $200,000 worth of Pounds/Dollar at 1.5660
You SOLD $200,000 worth of Pounds/Dollar at 1.5720
+60 pips of profit X $20.00 per pip = $1,200

Let's summarize:
In just few hours of trading, you realized
a gross profit of $1200 before commission. The gain is approximately 60% on your $2,000 investment!

But wait, how can I buy or sell a currency lot worth $200,000 with just $2,000 in my account?

It is the high degree of leverage available to Forex traders that enables you to do this. With margin requirements as little as 1%, a day trader with $2,000 in a trading account can open a position worth up to $1,000,000. It is this leverage that makes it possible for even a part-time day trader to earn double-digit monthly returns on investment. (Please note, however, we do NOT recommend opening such a large position with just $2,000 in your trading account. Under most circumstances, proper money management dictates opening a position no larger than $200,000 to $500,000 with a $2,000 trading account.)

What if I don't have $40,000 of risk capital to open a trading account?

There are a few electronic brokers that permit new traders to open margin accounts with less than $40,000. However, you must be even more careful with a smaller account since any loss magnifies reduction of your trading capital and the ability to continue trading your system. That is why most experts do NOT recommend self-trading with less than $40,000.

Sounds impressive, but how much risk is involved?

Since leverage can work against you as well as for you, the risk factor is very high in currency trading. So, a person who does not have extra capital that he or she can afford to lose should not trade in the currency markets. However, please keep in mind that most income opportunities involve risk. In fact, some are even riskier than trading currencies

How much profit can actually be made?

Of course, results can and do vary among individuals and no guarantees can be made as to profitability. However, let's look at some sample numbers based on averaging just +10 pips a day and each pip having an average value of about $7.50. A beginner working just four days a week and trading just one(1) unit/lot could earn about $300/week or about $1,200/month. A more experienced trader still working four days a week and trading three(3) units/lots could earn about $900/week or about $3,600/month. An advanced trader still working four days a week and trading ten(10) units/lots could earn about $3,000/week or about $12,000/month.

So, what can be done to reduce risk and increase the potential for success?

First, you must be willing to allocate enough time to study and master basic trading skills/disciplines before putting real money at risk. An experienced currency trader or company that offers training can help in this area. Second, you must acquire a proven trading system or methodology that should be strictly followed to eliminate trading on emotions. Such a system will incorporate good money management including correct stop loss placements. Third, you must have a real-time data feed with quality charting software. This will enable you to clearly analyze the market and follow your trading strategies.

Frankly, I don't have time to self-trade. But I would like to energize my investment portfolio with some currency trading. How does a managed trading program operate?

A professionally managed Forex currency program can be structured in a number of ways. Most have minimum account requirements of at least $25,000 or more. They usually require an investor to enter a written agreement with the management company which includes a maximum risk tolerance level. Investors then deposit funds into a special account held at a bonded institution (bank). If the funds are from an IRA, they are transferred to a trust company before being forwarded to the bank. Thereafter, the management company trades for the investor attempting to achieve a 3-9% net return per month. For their services, a trade commission and/or incentive fee is charged and deducted from the gross profit. Some programs even provide segregated accounts, insurance policies and trading audits to increase investor safety and peace of mind.
