Message from Global-View's Founders

We have been each trading the forex marker for over 30 years and founded Global-View.com over 15 years ago in an effort to help traders navigate the forex market. Our newly-expanded learning center is designed as a step by step approach to becoming a forex trader. The key is to stay in the game as you learn to trade. Too many new traders (and some more experienced ones as well) succumb to the allure of high leverage and quick profits but soon find this is the quickest way to the exit door. Proper money management and how to handle risk are keys to trading with limited capital in a leveraged environment.

Forex trading is complicated with many factors influencing it. Technical traders will argue it is all in the charts. Those with experience will argue that fundamentals and political factors have an influence but most will rely on technicals for their trading. For those starting out or with limited experience we suggest learning the technicals as that will give you a basis to start trading while you study and learn the nuances of the forex market. Keep it simple at first and develop a systematic approach where you are comfortable with the risk you are taking.

Global-View.com offers a wealth of information on just about every topic. Watch how other traders trade on our dynamic forex forum. Search through our archives and read articles posted on our website. And perhaps most important, don't be timid. ASK QUESTIONS. We have set up places where you can ask questions and get a reply if you are patient. Too many traders, especially those starting out, are reluctant to ask questions because they do not want to look foolish. Remember, we all started out as newbies and felt the same way when we began. The successful ones put egos aside and persevered by asking questions of those with greater experience. After all these years we still learning and ask questions when we see something new. 

A word of advice: If you treat forex trading like a casino you will wind up the same way most do when they go to Las Vegas . If you treat it like a business, study hard, learn your craft, you will increase your odds of success.

Good luck in your journey and take advantage of what we have to offer. Remember, this is a marathon and not a sprint. The key is to stay in the game as you develop your skills so take it step by step.

Jay Meisler and John Bland, co-founders
