Trade Forex and Profit During Real Estate Meltdown

Some of you know that prior to learning to trade Forex I was in the business of real estate investing and was also a Regional Top Producer Realtor with Keller Williams.   I had learned to successfully buy and sell residential real estate using creative financing techniques and made consistent profits often without using any money or financing.   I had heard from a reliable source around the summer of 2004 that the market was headed for a turn.  In addition to that I had found that almost every real estate transaction that I was involved in caused me extreme stress and anxiety.  I will not even go into the many challenges that are not discussed by the late night TV gurus who interview their students on yachts while wearing Hawaiian Shirts. 

When I learned about the Forex market I could not stop thinking about the possiblities with no clients, no customers, no phone calls, no closings, no tenants, no lawsuits, no repairs, and no product to sell.   And there are no geographic ties so I can live anywhere I like or travel the world as long as I have access to my laptop and wireless internet reception.   One of the first things I did when I achieved the level of success in Forex that I was looking for was to completely remove myself from the real estate business and move from the cloudy and rainy Northwest to the sunny Southwest.  And I have had the pleasure of doing some travel to events that interest me as well as vacations and retreats without having to lose any business.  My method of Forex trading only requires looking at charts for about 15 minutes twice a day and this approach enables many traders to get more profit than most of the day traders who stay up all night bugg eyed with their fingers sweating on the trigger every minute.

Regardless of whether the real estate market, stock market, futures, bonds, value of the U.S. dollar or political and economic outlook are positive or negative, the ability to profit in the Forex market remains the same.  If the U.S dollar drops we profit.  If it rises we profit.  You need not even trade currency pairs that involve the U.S. dollars at all and if you believe the dollar will be falling in value for the long term you can even hold your trading account in another currency such as Euros or Pounds.   So when I hear about negative news about the economy I just smile and relax because my business will not be affected in the least.
