You currency trading signal is your way of timing the market and determines whether you win or lose and most people lose as they don't understand one key fact behind their currency trading signal so here it is...

The key factor that will determine whether you win or lose long term with your forex trading strategy is - understanding the logic your signal is based upon and most new forex traders in particular, forget this and never make it part of their forex education.

There is a huge industry today in currency trading, where companies and vendors that will sell you currency trading signals and send them to your mobile, or your email box. Most traders simply take the vendors word for it or simulated track record, that these signals will make money.

The trader has no idea of the logic and as soon as they hit a few losses, they throw in the towel.

The same goes for forex traders who buy forex trading system software that generates trading signals. They again accept a simulated track record of profits and have no idea why the system should work (and in most cases it doesn't) and again they throw in the towel when they hit a few losses.

If you want to follow trading signals you MUST understand the logic they are based upon and be convinced it is soundly based, so you can follow the trading systems signals through the bad periods to hopefully, enjoy long term currency trading success.

The equation that is vital to succeed in forex trading (if you follow a vendor) or generate the trading signals yourself is:

Logical methodology = Understanding = Confidence = Discipline = Forex trading success.

Today, too many traders follow vendors who produce enticing marketing copy and make up a simulated track record in hindsight and the trader is blinded by greed and fails to check the logic is sound and that they understand it.

Where and when you enter your trading signal is vital to you winning longer term at FX trading and you need to know the logic, to have confidence in it and the discipline to follow the signals through periods of drawdown.

Trading is only partially method, the overriding reason traders lose is lack of discipline.

The best way to succeed in forex is to do your homework and understand exactly how and why your currency trading signal is generated, by learning your vendors system and testing it or even better building your own system.

If you want to learn forex trading the right way you need to understand the logic that your currency trading signal is based upon - PERIOD.
