In the FOREX market, you can use two distinct types of trading systems. The first type is the mechanical trading system. The mechanical trading system is relatively easy to use because an automated process makes all trade decisions for you. This trading system is based on technical and systematic analysis. Traders call it mechanical trading because they use computers to get trading signals.
At the other side of the spectrum, the discretionary trading system uses gut instincts. It is based on an investor’s experience, knowledge, and intuition. Some investors choose to use mechanical systems to understand current market conditions, and then analyze the details on their own before trading.
Mechanical Trading System
Of course, most FOREX traders use the mechanical trading system, simply because it automates the process and you can set it up with little effort. It is the easiest way to become a FOREX trader because it requires less training and education than discretionary trading. Mechanical trading systems are widely available online and some software is available in stores.
