Are you prepared to currency trade?

 Currency trading is the most popular way to earn to money and it is without doubt a very profitable market. However few are familiar with its unpleasant intricacies and most ignore a very important aspect: risk. It is not enough only to be given the chance to invest your money successfully, you have to be careful because Currency trading can be an efficient trading system or it can ruin you. Why is Currency trading risky?


- Currency trading is very unstable. It is the subject of rapid and overwhelming changes. The market is volatile and it is influenced by political events. 

- One can loose at any time especially when he has just ventured into Currency trading. Experience, information and attention are necessary. 

- Some unexpectedly loose the Risk Capital which sometimes consists of College money, the retirement funds or some other substantial sum that shouldn’t have been considered as Currency trading capital in the first place.

- Fluctuations in currency prices, discrepancies between interest rates in two different countries, insolvency of financial institutions that take part in transactions and limited flow of exotic currencies will most likely lead to loss.

- Large profits and minimal losses are impossible to predict with 100% certainty.

- The Currency trading market has great winning potential, but it also has loss potential.  

- Misinformation and the emotional baggage are most of the time cause of loss. Use facts, not hope or fear, when Currency trading.

- Sometimes trends can lead to money loss.

- Huge leverage is available to traders. This leads to dangerous positions that risk too much in comparison with the size of the account. 

- Lacks of money management and of back testing plans are the mistakes that currency traders make sometimes.

- Using brokers is sometimes inefficient because this counterpart can refuse to trade during volatile market conditions affecting the retail trader. They can even widen spreads. However it is recommended to collaborate with a broker, because he can deal in the interbank market and he surely knows more about Currency trading making it safer from other points of view.

- Scams were very common years ago when dealing with a broker. However, one can be confident with the person he is working with by checking their background and the Institutions he is associated with (large banks, important insurance companies).


Don’t be frightened! It isn’t all about risks. And don’t start trading in fear! You will loose this way. You just have to keep in mind all possibilities and avoid unwanted situations only you can get yourself into. All Currency traders have to be very well informed about their activity. They have to know technical analysis and how to read and interpret charts, they have to develop effective strategies and minimize risk. The financial exposure has to be limited and this can be done in many ways available to currency traders who inform themselves.

 

So, educate yourself, be prudent, take risks only when you can handle loss and always be prepared for anything. And have this in mind: If Currency trading isn’t profitable then why are so many financial investors, banks, international institutions and important players that obtain huge amounts of cash by simply turning their own money into other currencies?

Difference between AES and DES

  AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) and DES (Data Encryption Standard) are both symmetric key encryption algorithms, which means they use the same key for both encryption and decryption. However, they differ in several key ways: Key size: AES supports key sizes of 128, 192, or 256 bits, while DES only supports a key size of 56 bits. This makes AES much more secure against brute-force attacks. Block size: AES uses a block size of 128 bits, while DES uses a block size of 64 bits. This means that AES can encrypt larger amounts of data at once, and is more efficient for modern computing architectures. Algorithm complexity: AES is a more complex algorithm than DES, which means that it is generally more difficult to attack. DES has been shown to be vulnerable to certain types of attacks, particularly those that exploit its relatively small key size. Security: AES is generally considered to be more secure than DES, and is currently recommended by security experts as the preferred encryp...

crypto

  Crypto, short for "cryptocurrency," refers to a digital or virtual currency that uses cryptography to secure and verify transactions and to control the creation of new units. Cryptocurrencies are decentralized, meaning they are not controlled by a central authority like a government or bank. Instead, they rely on a distributed ledger technology called blockchain, which allows for secure, transparent, and immutable record-keeping. The most well-known cryptocurrency is Bitcoin, which was created in 2009 by an unknown person or group using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. Since then, thousands of other cryptocurrencies, often referred to as "altcoins," have been created, each with their own unique features and use cases. Cryptocurrencies can be used for a variety of purposes, including as a medium of exchange, a store of value, and a speculative investment. Some people also view cryptocurrencies as a way to protect against inflation or as a means of financial freedom,...

Ethereum hits an 8-month high as it nears $2,000

  Ethereum ( ETH ), the world’s second-largest   cryptocurrency , has reached an 8-month high as it continues its upward trend toward $2,000. The price of ETH rose to $1,909 on Wednesday, April 5, marking a 5% increase in just 24 hours, this surge comes amid a broader market rally that saw Bitcoin ( BTC ), the largest cryptocurrency, test resistance at $29,000. Ethereum’s on-chain activity has been steadily increasing over the past few months, with more and more users utilizing the network for various purposes. This uptick in activity has led to a surge in demand for Ethereum, with sharks (addresses holding 100-10,000) ETH accumulated $4.24 billion in the past 9 months, per the data from crypto analytics firm  Santiment  on April 5. According to Ali Martinez, a cryptocurrency trading expert, Ethereum is currently showing signs of breaking out, and the next key resistance level lies beyond $2,100. Furthermore, Martinez suggests that there...
