Hi Elmira,

In order to start learning forex trading, you need to learn the basic terminologies used in Forex market. Understand the concepts of Leverage, Pips, Pivot Calculations etc. For practical knowledge of working of Forex Market, open a demo trading account with any of the online trading platforms available online. Read articles written by Successful traders in forex trading. Use different different strategies and select which one best suites you. As a beginner invest only that much money that you can afford to loose.

Forex Trading

From my 2 week experiences (not too much) playing demo at fxdialogue, personally, I think that forex is a good way to earn money only if we know exactly what we are doing. Right? The more we understand, the lower risk we have, and the better chance we win. Therefore, I suggest you to understand deeper about Forex by starting a demo account which will cost you almost nothing.
For your consideration, read it

Before you can get started with forex trading, there are so many questions to answer. How do I choose a broker? Should I use a demo account? What do I need to know before making my first trade?
Let’s answer these questions one at a time, in order of importance.
1.Choose a broker
Making a decision on which broker to use is personal for each trader. Some brokers offer certain options that some traders will thrive on, while other traders will hate the broker for those same options. It is important to review and compare the options of each broker closely and choose the one that makes you feel most comfortable.

2.Open a Demo Account
Once you have made your decision on which broker you like the best, it is time to open a demo account. Most brokers will offer at least a 30 day trial of their trading platform giving you a chance to trade on the platform using play money. Using a demo account is a good opportunity to make sure that you feel comfortable using the broker’s trading tools. You would not want to trade real money without being fully comfortable with the trading platform. A demo account will not only help you get a grip on how to use the broker’s trading platform, but also trading the market in real time.
• Learn to take risk seriously
• Practice sound money management

3.Learn About Leverage
Forex trading is typically carried out using leverage, or trading on margin. Margin is a useful tool, but it can be very dangerous if it isn’t used correctly. Forex brokers typically offer anywhere from 50:1 leverage up to 400:1 leverage. The higher the number, the less money required to put on a large trade. The use of leverage is something that needs to be taken with a lot of care.

4.Practice Reading Charts
Before you start making trades you should get familiar with charts and how they work. It is a good idea to get familiar with the different time frames and the different types of charts. The shorter time frames will give you an idea of how the market is moving minute to minute. The longer time frames can show you how the market moves over longer periods and will show the larger trends. Most charting software will offer charts as lines, candlesticks, or bars. Take plenty of time to try out different looks and time frames to find the style that you are comfortable with.
• Learn about candlesticks
• Learn to understand support and resistance

5.Making the first live trade
The first trade is a nervous and exciting experience. The demo account prepares you for the technical aspects of trading, but when real money is on the line, emotions will come into play. It is important that you keep a level head and do your best to trade with the same methods that you practiced on the demo account. It may prove to be difficult, but if you master your emotions and use sound money management, anything is possible after this step. If your first trade loses money, do not give up, just piece together where you think you went wrong, and try again.
Forex trading is a constant learning experience. Trading mistakes can be expensive. If you learn from those mistakes and do your best to avoid them in the future, you can become a very successful forex trader.

Start with these educational resources (the third link is to a powerful self-training tool) then branch out to other forex forums like forex factory, etc.

Best of luck~

I personally chose to trade on an autotrading platform cause this way I learn from other experienced traders positions. After I made my search I ended up in Zulutrade' s platform cause it easy to use it. Of course I kept on reading and learning very useful forex terms like DD, slippage, hedging etc in order to understand better my SPs startegies and avoid risk. For this has helped me a lot the money management as well.

As someone who once-upon-a-not-so-long-time-ago was in your shoes- I want to share some tips with you I have picked up while playing the forex game.
Truth be told, the best advice out there is to get active in forex trading, play around on different platforms (I would start with a demo account) and learn forex; experience is key in this crazy market.
However, before you can delve into experimenting: there are certain key points of which you should make yourself aware. A forex learning site I've used is everestforex.com; learned the keys to forex trading through presentations and then received $100 to trade with a broker when I was ready for the action. Check it out and see if it works for you.
Good Luck and I promise you will get the hang of it :)
