What does the typical trading day look like for a full time trader? Well, I&#8217;m going to share with you what I do, how I do it, and why I think it&#8217;s a great way to trade. So let&#8217;s talk about that more right now. Hey there traders! Andrew here at The Forex Trading Coach for video and podcast number 630. What my typical trading day looks like. I quite often get asked by people around the world saying, “Hey Andrew, can you show me like how you&#8217;re trading or what your typical day looks like?” And people get very concerned that, you know, maybe they can&#8217;t trade the way that I trade because they live in a different country, or they&#8217;ve got commitments or other work or whatever it might be. So just to show you now, we&#8217;ve just turned 10:00 in the morning here, and I&#8217;ve just taken my trades for today. So every day at 5 p.m., New York time, which currently is 9:00 am here in New Zealand. I go through and look at the daily charts and also the 12 hour, the 8 hour and the 6 hour charts, and we post trades every single day and have done since 2010 on our membership site for our clients based on that close of day. Easter break and 2x H6 trades taken. Now, right now we&#8217;ve just had Easter, so the markets are kind of a bit all over the place. And for today, there were no specific daily trades. It&#8217;s quite unusual. Most days we have between say 1 and about 4 or 5 daily chart trades. Today there were none. That&#8217;s absolutely fine. It&#8217;s just what the market&#8217;s doing. There were some big moves yesterday. There&#8217;s this potential, sort of peace deal going on with the Iran war and so big movement in the market, but right now, no specific daily trades for today. However, we did just take 2 trades on the 6 hour charts. I&#8217;ve just taken a sell trade on the GBP/JPY and also the GBP/CAD. And so they&#8217;ve been placed here behind me.<
