Do you suffer from information overload? You know, you see signals out there online. You’re not sure what to do. There’s so much information, conflicting information. And you just have complete confusion. You don’t know what to do, when to do it, and therefore you probably either gamble or give up. If that’s you, listen up. The next five minutes is going to be absolutely invaluable information that’s going to help change your trading around. Let’s get into that more right now.

Hey there traders. It’s Andrew here at The Forex Trading Coach with video and podcast number 627.

Information overload.

So today I want to talk about information overload. It’s a big problem that people have. You know there’s so much information out there online. There’s thousands and thousands of indicators. And people seem to think they’re going to come up with the Holy grail of indicators.

You know, there’s massive amount of conflicting information with social media signals. And, you know, there’s, other social media, signals saying buy on this pair and at the same time, you’re indicators turning down and therefore you think you should be selling, you’ll see something on YouTube that says buy. You see something on TikTok that says sell and you’ll get something on signal or, you know, telegram that says completely opposite and people just have no idea what to do.

And you can see why, because they rely on other people to make that analysis for them, and therefore they really don’t know what they’re looking for.

AI predications.

And, you know, the, the other common one that I’m seeing now, of course, is AI predictions. And that, again, you know, while in theory and great AI is going to solve all our problems.

Look, AI is going to make us damn lazy. We’re not going to have a clue what to do. And if you want to rely on AI, then you know, good luck to you. That’s all I can say for me. And I had this discussion with someone just last week.

I know in my head how to trade.

To me, as a trader, there is nothing better than knowing in my head and in my heart I can see trades, I can take trades. And I’ve got that information and that powerful information, to be able to do this. You know, for the rest of my life, I want to or however long I want to, and pass that information on to people. And, you know, for people that want to put a bit of time and effort in to figure out this for themselves, then, you know, I think just being able to do this for yourself is massive, and A.I. it’s just not going to cut it.

I can’t see it. It’s just not going to have those nuances of those human factors that, you know, we have and can see.

Now, sure, I’m not knocking it. And sure there of course there will be a place for it. And, you know, it can help do some analysis in the future and potentially take trades when you’re asleep or those type of things. But overall, I think you still need some common sense and knowledge of trading in order to even use A.I.,

News events moving the markets.

News as well. Of course, that’s causing massive issues with people right now. You know, we’ve got the Iran war going on with the oil price going up one day, crashing the next day up again. And and people think it’s, you know, it’s causing problems.

And I get a lot of people say to me, hey, Andrew, what’s happening right now with your trading due to this? You know, this war? And I said, well, nothing’s changed. You know, markets are moving up and down because mostly in the currencies we’re trading pairs. You know, if, let’s say the US is particularly strong, then you might, you know, be buying the GBP/USD, selling the GBP/USD if the US is weak, you might be selling it. You know, it just depends on what’s happening. On that particular day.

We, over the last week or two have just had some incredible trades, mostly sort of 12 hour time frames down to two hours. The longer time frames have just been a little bit harder to trade, but that’s just the way the market is right now.

But again, it’s understanding what to do and knowing what to do and see a trade take a trade is the crucial aspect there.

People switching strategy.

So look analysis paralysis causes a problem. It just leads to people to switching strategies. You know, they don’t get a strategy or it’s not working straight away. So they move on to the next shiny object.

And that’s a common problem that I see all the time. And of course, what’s that doing? Is it leading to inconsistent trading, lack of confidence, lack of making a decent return. You know, you’re losing money and you know, you your spouse says to you, look, you just wasting our money and it’s just not working. Go and do something else.

And and that’s the problem that I see time and time and time again. It’s just such a common problem. And I get it. Well, it’s because people don’t, stop to actually, like, invest in themselves. Through their education or their time into trading, learning properly themselves, developing their own strategy, whatever it might be. And it’s like anything life isn’t that, you know, if you’re going to put some time and effort into it, you’ll probably do quite well if you think you’re just going to wing it and, and fluke it or, you know, find the answer on, you know, on social media, it’s probably not going to be a good long term outcome for you.

Our strategy has never changed in 17 years.

Why I’m saying that. Well, look, we’re 17 years old here at The Forex Trading Coach. In a couple of months, it’s something we’re immensely proud of. And I just wanted to let you know that in that time, the strategy has never changed. And so when I talk about all these issues of the analysis paralysis, you know, whether it be a war going on, A.I. whatever it might be, and that leads to confusion and conflicting information.

And clients don’t have that. You know, we have a massive community of people right around the world in 111 countries, all looking at the same strategy, the same charts at the same time, or helping each other. We post, trades each day, for our clients to follow our multiple time frame charts and so if a client has a question, we answer it and they know exactly.

You know what, we know what they’re looking at, and they know what we’re looking at because it’s the one strategy. But when you think about it, how many people out there, can you say that you can find anywhere online? I challenge you to have a look anywhere online that can say, the course that I’m teaching is identical in terms of the strategy, for close on 17 years.

That to me says everything it tells me. And it should tell you that what we’re looking for, our strategy is completely, well and truly proven across all markets, timeframes, trading conditions, wars, oil prices going up, oil prices come down, the creation of cryptos, the ability to trade metals and indices, commodities and more forex pairs and it still continues to work.

So, I think that really sums up everything you need to know if you’re out there looking for someone to give you some help. Because why would you look anywhere else? Everything that we have, created over those 17 years is there to help our clients, trade easily, to have an understanding of what to do.

Sure to use our help, especially at the very beginning when the learning, but over time to become independent, successful forex traders without our help. We’re not interested in having people year after year after year, you know, being handheld that’s not our aim, our aim is to say this is a strategy. It works. Stick with it, understand it, ask questions, use our help.

And after a year, you know, six months a year, you’re off doing your own thing and really, you know, progressing well, profiting potentially on prop firms, however you want to go with your trading and, and you, you know, you’re a happy customer. So, that’s it for today. Don’t get confused. Don’t seek out something that works. Get off. You know, the vast majority of the social media and the A.I. and the signals, learn how to do it for yourself if you really want to become a good trader.

Blueberry Markets as a Forex Broker.

One last thing. If you’re out there looking for a really good broker, I can highly recommend Blueberry Markets over in Australia. They’re, you know, they’re great people.

So many, people who. I’ve sent them over to them over the years, and all you get is this consistent feedback. You know, great people, great platform, great spreads, withdrawing funds. It’s just really easy. I withdraw some funds from an account, just on Friday of last week. By Monday, it was in my account, here in New Zealand from Australia.

So great people. Have a look at Blueberry Markets as well. This is Andrew here, The Forex Trading Coach I see this time next week. Bye for now.
