STAGE 2
TODAY MARKS THE REAL BEGINNING OF YOUR FOREX JOURNEY
WHAT IS A PIP?
If you miss the Concept of Pips here, believe me your foundation is going to be
shaky all through your Forex journey.
Currencies are gauged in pips, Trade orders are placed in pips, Profits are
calculated in pips.
It can also be said to be a standardized unit and the smallest amount by which a
currency pair in forex market can change
If you are distracted, from here please stay focused from now onwards
For most currency pairs in Forex, We start Calculating the pips from the 4th
decimal place except for JPY pairs.
The Pip is being calculated starting from the 4th decimal place.
You, start calculating the PIP from the 4th decimal digit there which is ""2""
The 4 at the top is a superscript and not needed. Those are pipet
I added 1 to the 4th decimal placed number there and it increased from "2" to "3"
Once again, we added "5" to the 4th decimal placed number which was "2" and we
got "7"
Now for most currency pairs in Forex.... The pip Calculation, starts from the 4th
decimal place.
Now there are some currency pairs that are not up to 4 decimal places.
E.g.
USDJPY

EURJPY
GBPJPY
AUDJPY
NZDJPY etc.
ie
XAUUSD
Let's fire on

While, Ask Price is the price that sellers are willing to sell.

Forex is not meant to be hard, it's people that try to make it complex so as to
monopolize the business for themselves.
And u walk into a bank to exchange it, bank would tell you that the latest CBN rate
is let's say N350.
So, they would give N3.5 million Naira as equivalent to the $10,000
You had an emergency and you needed to travel abroad and you are requesting for
same $10,000.
They would now tell you that their own Bank rate is N370.
So, you would now have to pay N3.7 million for same $10,000.
In this situation, N350 here is the Bid price, while N370 is the Ask price.
They just made N200,000 profit from you in just a space of 24 hours.
P a g e | 11
And would always continue to live in big houses and drive big cars and pay the
workers peanuts.
Because Foreign Exchange is so Liquid that it can change your fortune around in
just few weeks of trading.
So, the Bid Price is that price that buyers also in Forex are willing to buy while
Ask price is the price that the Sellers are willing to sell.
So, the meaning of this above is that when you place a BUY ORDER in Forex, it
would activate for you using the Ask price (remember that the Ask price is the
Price that Sellers are willing to Sell to you, who is the Buyer).
While in reverse…
P a g e | 12
When you place a SELL ORDER in Forex it would activate for you using the Bid
price (remember that the BID price is the Price that Buyers are willing to Buy from
you, who is the Seller)
When you brought your $10,000 to the Bank, you are the seller at that instant while
the Bank was the Buyer.
While in reverse…
When you came back the next day that you want to travel for an emergency you
now became the Buyer (no longer the Seller).
So, they gave you the dollars at their Ask price which is the price that Sellers are
willing to Sell (remember they are now the sellers)
Remember from the example I gave above 370 Naira was the Ask and it's bigger
than the Bid price which was 350 Naira.
So Also in Forex... The Ask is also higher than the Bid price...
WHAT IS A SPREAD?
So also in Forex, the Spread is the profit of the Brokers, however in this case, it's
very small because it's measured in pips.
Class-work
Work 1
Work 2
If USDJPY at a current price of 110.60 makes a move of 5 pips, what would be its
new value?
Work 3
It’s very important for those that already trading in this group…
And from your Technical or Fundamental Analysis, you found out that it would
soon rise…
And want a TP of 50 pips… (So, I would set my TP at $90, we saw this part earlier)
Now after setting my TP, I would also tell my Broker, that look Mr Man I'm
buying, so I want my trade to be open only when the price is going up.
That if the price tries to go down by let's say more than 10 pips, Close my Trade
for me.
So, you only want to stay in the trade when the price is going up.
You should set it at $30, So anytime the price reverses and starts falling without
your knowledge, if it gets to $30. Your trade would close for you, preventing
further losses, even if you are not online.
CCC/DDD….
And I want a TP of 40 pips and a Stop-loss of 5 pips (meaning I don't want to lose
more than 5 pips) …
My TP would be $140…
So anytime the price wants to fall, and it falls by 5 pips from $100 to $95, my
Broker would automatically close my trade for me. Preventing me from further
loss, even if you are not online.
Technology of MT4/MT5 has made Forex so interesting, you control how much
you earn and also how much you don't wanna lose in case market reverses
We analyse that EUR/USD is going to move upward or bullish and its currently at
0.2340….
I want a tp of $20…
In Summary…
While buying your TP is above (because you want the price to go up) …
while your Stop Loss is below (because if it starts going down, that's against your
trade plan).
In Reverse
While Selling your TP is below (because you want the price to fall) …
While your Stoploss should be above (because if it starts going up, that's not your
trade plan again)
LOT SIZE
LOT SIZE is the amount/quantity of a Trade that you Bought or Sold. It's
sometimes called your Position size/Trade size
In Forex market, these currencies are not Bought and Sold singly.
That is what makes the gain appreciable, if not your profit in Forex would have
been $0.0001 or something like that.
But because u buy this Currency in Bulk/Packs known as Lotsize, that's why the
gain is appreciable.
STANDARD LOT
MINI LOT
MICRO LOT
I would show you where to input them on MT4 soon, Let's just explain what each
of them means.
Sit tight…
As Usual, I would always use things around you, to explain complex matters of
Forex to you so as to make it simpler.
You know for them to make profit; they can't just buy single pairs of jeans from
the wholesaler.
They need to buy these Jeans in bundles for the profit made to be appreciable.
Now…
You would agree with me that Trader A would make more money than Trader B,
who will in turn make more money than Trader C.
And what determined how many Bundles of Jeans they bought is the Capital
they invested in the business.
1 PIP = $10
1 PIP = $1
1 PIP = $0.1
I would show u where to input them on MT4 soon, Let's just explain what each of
them means.
Sit tight…
Even though they still participated in the same trade and the market moved in their
direction for the same amount of pips.
P a g e | 20
There profits were different because the amount of that particular Currency they
bought was different
However, the Broker, we all are using here even takes as low as $10 as minimum
amount.
Because Hotforex accepting a minimum deposit of $10, that does not mean you
should go and start up your Forex journey with $10, you would just get frustrated
because your profit would be coming in cents.
U would be seeing $0.04 and all those rubbish small money for all the data you
wasted.
So, I usually tell them… don't rush to start if you don't have a startup capital yet.
Still continue receiving the Lectures while you gradually gather money for yourself
to Kick start.
For me, the minimum amount I usually advise them to start Up with is between
$50, $100 to $200
That is just the minimum, the smart among them usually starts with between $500
to $1000.
He waited, gathered money and started with $500, now his account is over $2000
excluding withdrawals.
So don't always rush in to start if u don't have enough capital with you.
That's why I left the question, so that I can answer it now that you all have
understood *Lotsize*
LEVERAGE
In the case of Forex, using a smaller Capital Base to control a larger Lotsize
To understand this Concept of Leverage, let's take a brief history of how Forex was
initiated.
Just as we see currently in New York Stock exchange, forex are only traded by
people we call the Kabals (MEN OF WALL STREET).
Usually Investment Banks, Rich Men, Monarchs, Big Business Men, Company
Owners, etc.
For you to trade in the floor of New York Stock Exchange Market you should be
making a specific amount of millions of dollars per annum…
Common Men like you and me wouldn't have benefited from this lucrative
business.
Now during the invent of the Internet, the world became a Global Village, in which
you can Buy and Sell from anywhere around the world
Now Forex Brokers had so many customers around the world, enough that they
could solve that single problem of capital for us.
Now those World Banks, etc., still requires a certain amount of money from
someone to be able to trade with.
But because brokers have pulled sum amount of money together, we are now
allowed to trade through our brokers.
So instead of an individual Trading with 1 million dollars, you can actually place a
trade with as little as $10 because you are not going alone.
You are going to the market through your Broker, who is recognized by the World
Bank as a formidable force. Because it has a large capital base.
Now your Broker allows you to trade because he offers you what they call
Leverage in the Fx Market.
The principle of Leverage is virtually multiplying that your little capital so that you
can use it and buy something worth a bigger value.
Example
Remember when you were filling forms, I asked you all to fill Leverage as 1: 500
or 1:1000 etc.
Normally $100 wouldn't have been able to place a trade in the forex market.
But because your Broker gave you leverage you can now do that.
With that $100 capital you can be able to place a trade of $100X500 = $50,000.
TRADING ORDERS
Shortest topic…
✓ Stop orders
✓ Limit orders
We would just be talking in details about Instant Market Execution. We will see
the other types when we discuss Support and Resistance in FOREX (Stage3), so
that you all would understand them properly
Instant Market execution simply means that you are buying at that instantaneous
Market Price.
Let's say a Currency pair is presently at $50 and you Clicked on Buy. What u did
was Instant Market Execution because you bought at that current price.
While the other 2 types which are Stop orders and Limit orders are when you are
buying at a future price.
Let's say you want to wait until the price of that currency pair falls to $40 before
you buy.
As you all will agree with me, every worker deserves his wages. But am not
charging anyone here as I make money from my course on my website which is
150k and my trades
Stage 3,4 & 5 is going to be tedious and hectic, especially for me but I need to
grow my community of traders.
So, This Stage would only be for Serious and Committed members.
So, for the start of Stage 3 up-to Stage 4... I would only work with people who are
willing to move on with me.
Because of the situation of country especially Nigeria and also, how far we have
been here together; I won't task you all much.
The Link to the SENIOR CLASS for Stage 3 and 4 would be given to those who
qualify.
If you are interested CLICK ON THIS LINK TO REGISTER and let's discuss
about the journey of your success
P a g e | 27
RISK MANAGEMENT
It’s composed of all these topics you have been taught before now…
Because I told you guys that 1.0 Lotsize gives $10 per pip…
You would see someone trying to go and use 1.0 Lotsize because he wants to get
rich overnight.
Even if it's 0.1, you are starting with, it's still OK.
If you make $50 daily and you couldn't reach $100 daily… It's still fair.
Though, I would be with everyone, (Premium students) all through the way in this
your new journey in the world of Forex.
So, if you have any problems, you can always ask so that you would know how we
do it.
That's why it's a Mentorship Class and not just a Seminar that they would teach
and leave you.
As you go along in the course of your training, you would be seeing how we apply
all these practically.
TRADING PLAN
There is a saying that when you fail to plan, you are plan to fail.
That's why you need a written trading plan before you kick off your forex trading
journey.
✓ SPECIFIC
✓ MEASURABLE
P a g e | 29
✓ ACHIEVABLE
✓ REALISTIC
✓ TIME BOUND
I would share with you all, my personal trading plan that I normally give my
students.
This plan should be like a guide, so that you can use it to form yours.
MY TRADING PLAN
I would set a near term goal and make at least 5% make at least of my
trading capital in 1 week and I would plot this target daily
If I am behind my trading plan for the quarter; I would take a brief break to
re-evaluate my trading system.
I would not trade more than 3 markets per day (i.e., more than 3 currencies
pairs)
If I have more than 4 loosing trades in a row, I would take a trading break of
2 days to re-access the market.
Anytime I take a break, I would close losing trades set protective stops on a
Winning trades and TP at reasonable targets; should I be unavailable and
Market gets to my Target level.
I would take 40% out of my account and invest in non Fx related business
(like Real Estate) and reinvest.
P a g e | 30
I would record my daily trade activities in my trading log and review them
weekly.
I would know my ratios and results and would work to improve on them by
at least 5% per week.
I printed this out and pasted on the wall near my Trading Desk, because the more
you look at it, you would be more obliged to follow the plan.
While forming your plans, especially your targets, make it realistic depending on
your capacity.
Because I set my target at $50 per day or another person sets his at $500 per day,
that should not influence yours
If for a start, you make $20 per day, believe me it's a good start.
For a little capital of $100 to $200, you can set up your target at $10 to $20 per day.
The main aim of Forex in this early stage is to support your normal expenses.
Then as you now grow in Forex, you can now increase your capital… Hence,
increasing your daily target.
A time would come that u wouldn't depend on your salary again for anything.
So always start it step by step.... With time you will get there
Review it weekly…
Where are you currently and what part of your target is remaining.
Another important aspect of the Plan is once you have reached your target for the
day.
Forex market has been around for decades, so it won't close that day.
So always take your bow off, when you reach your target.
As we begin stage 3 and 4 - you guys would notice that immediately I reach my
target, I would close for the day in all trades.
May be, you set a target of $100 per day (let's assume you have a capital of $500…
Then, one of your Fx colleagues just called you that Donald Trump just pulled the
plug on Iran deal that you should Buy Brent Oil…
P a g e | 32
Instead of waiting for the next trading day as if the market won't continue
tomorrow.
So, you must eliminate that factor of Greed while formulating or trying to stick to
your trading plan.
By taking the market, slow and steady…You will always be comfortable with
forex.
After forming the plan, you can chat me up to help you review it or if you have any
clarification with any aspect of the template I gave which you don't understand,
Feel free to ask questions.
Those that have gone through this path ahead of you would tell you this are what
people have done which didn't yield positive results and hence u should modify
your own actions.
Which I have already highlighted above, the importance of planning your trades
from daily to weekly to Monthly
P a g e | 33
Even though it's good to demo trade, but don't dwell in the fantasy world for too
long...
Get into the real market and trade and analyze with your emotions on the line...
Dwelling in the fantasy world would make you feel relaxed and you won't learn
because u would always say to yourself…
Like I said, there is nothing wrong with starting small and growing gradually.
You may not know when a major news would be released and it could change the
direction of the market (that's why it's always good to look at the Economic
calendar before the beginning of every week)…
But by setting your Stop-loss, no matter the news whether it's against your
direction, you will be protected

Since its $5.3 trillion dollars liquid cap, you want to go home with half of the
market volume .
If you see me open another currency pair to monitor, that means one entered my
target profit quite early in the day so I had to open another trade.
The last but not the least (as we would address others as we encounter them within
the course of the training) is…
I mentioned that Fundamental Analysis is trading the market using the News.
You can also use forexfactory.com, investing.com or the news area in our mt4 app
to get news updates.
So, no need to get in quick, even if it's 40 pips, you could catch it's Ok…than
trying to get in early and catch the whole 100 pips.
It's always important, to note them down and try as much as possible to avoid them
during your forex journey.
MT4 INTERFACE
You have seen some of these during the course of our training and we would see
more as time goes on.
As you trade and grow in Forex, you would have all these at your fingertips.
