This is something that my very first client from back in 2009 has done since then, whilst running his very successful business. Let's get into that and more right now. Hey there, Traders! It's Andrew Mitchem here at The Forex Trading Coach with video and podcast number 617. Do you lack the time to trade? So a common problem that so many people face is they think they are too busy to trade. And it's fair enough because you see out there online, you know, examples on various platforms, YouTube, etc. of people looking at charts and looking at 5 minute charts and watching every pip move up and down. And you look at that and you think, well, realistically, how on earth can I copy that process? Because I'm just too busy. I've got, you know, work, businesses, family, hobbies, whatever it might be going on in your life. And there's no way that you are going to be able to afford that time to sit there, either to want to do it or to be able to do it, to sit there watching charts, ready to take little trades every now and then. It's just not realistic. And of course, many people wake up to that fact and they go, well, looks good and maybe in hindsight, but I just realistically cannot dedicate time to doing this. And even if you could, do I really want to sit there just staring at charts, watching 5 minute charts and 15 minute charts, just waiting for that signal to occur? Probably not, because it's not realistic and it's not something you're going to enjoy and continue to be able to do or want to do long term. So everybody's got busy lives. I get that. How to trade without taking up too much time. So what can you do to still become a good trader, but to not take up all day? And the very simple solution is you can look at the longer time frame charts such as the weekly charts. Now, just this week, right now is the absolute perfect example. GBP/HKD W1 chart with a 4.8:1 Reward:Risk. At the beginning of this week, we suggested a buy trade to our clients on the GBP/HKD. Now you go and have a look at your weekly charts for the beginning of this week. Go on to the pound Hong Kong dollar and you'll see the candle setup that I'm taking now. Right now as I'm recording this, the trade has not reached a profit target. But it's very, very close. It's only like ten pips away right now. If it hits the full profit target, which it's almost certainly going to do, especially by the time you watch this and listen to this, the trade's going to make a massive 4.8 to 1 reward to risk. So if you imagine that at the beginning of this week you saw that trade and you placed, let's say, a 1% risk on that trade, that's going to make you an incredible 4.8% gain on your account on the one trade in one week by taking literally, what, ten minutes to scan through the charts, if that, just at the beginning of the week. If you took a half percent risk, that's going to make you a 2.4%, not a bad gain in one week from a trade that took you like five or ten seconds to actually place, and then you've forgotten about it. No more chart watching. You just put the trade on, put your stop loss on, put your profit target on and let the trade do its thing. Let the market do its thing. Now that is a solution for you if you're short on time. My first ever client trades only Weekly charts. Now, my very first client, and he was the instigator in starting The Forex Trading Coach because he used to buy trading signals from me. And he said, look, Andrew, would you fly across to Australia to come and teach me? And I spent about four or five days with this guy and his family back in 2009, and that is how I started the coaching. And he was just thrilled with the system and thrilled with everything I taught him. And to this day, he is still trading. Now this guy owns a number of restaurant

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Do you think that you're too busy to trade? If
that's you, You've got a great solution for you. This
is something that my very first client from back in
two thousand and nine has done since then whilst running
his very successful business. Let's get into that more right now,

(00:25):
Hey the traders and Andrew Mitcham here at the Forest
Trading Coach with a video and podcast number six hundred
and seventeen. So a common problem that so many people
face is they think they are too busy to trade.
And it's fair enough because you see it there online.
You know, examples on various platforms, YouTube, et cetera of
people looking at charts and looking at five minute charts

(00:48):
and watching every pit move up and down. And you
look at that and you think, well, realistically, how on
earth can I copy that process? Because I'm just too busy.
I've got you know, work, businesses, family hobies, whatever it
might be going on in your life, and there's no
way that you are going to be able for that
time to sit there, either to want to do it
or to be able to do it, To sit there

(01:10):
and watching charts ready to take little trades every now
and then, it's just not realistic, and of course many
people wake up to that fact and they go, well,
it looks could and maybe in hindsight, but I just
realistically cannot dedicate time to doing this. And even if
you could do, I really want to sit there just
staring at charts, watching five minute charts and fifteen minute charts,

(01:33):
just waiting for that signal to occur. Probably not because
it's not realistic and it's not something you're going to
enjoy and continue to be able to do or want
to do long term. So everybody's got busy lives. I
get that. So what can you do to still become
a good trader but to not take up all day?

(01:57):
And the very simple solution is you can look at
the longer time frame charts such as the weekly charts.
Now just this week, right now is the absolute perfect example.
At the beginning of this week we suggested a by
trade to our clients on the British pound Hong Kong dollar.
Now you go and have a look at your weekly
charts for the beginning of this week. Go on to

(02:19):
the pound Hong Kong dollar and you'll see the candle
setup that I'm taking now right now as I'm recording this,
the trade has not reached a profit target, but it's
very very close. It's only like ten pips away right now.
If it hits the full profit target, which is almost
certainly going to do, especially by the time you watch
this and listen to this, the trade's going to make
a massive four point eight to one reward to risk.

(02:42):
So if you imagine that at the beginning of this
week you saw that trade and you place let's say
a one percent risk on that trade, that's going to
make you an incredible four point eight percent gain on
your account on the one trade in one week by
taking literally what ten minutes to scan through the char
If that just at the beginning of the week, if

(03:03):
you took a half percent risk, it's going to make
you a two point four percent not a bad gain
in one week from a trade that took you like
five or ten seconds to actually place. And then you've
forgotten about it. No more chart watching. You just put
the trade on, put your stop looss on, put your
profit target on, and let the trade do its thing.
Let the market do its thing. Now, that is a
solution for you if you're short on time. Now. My

(03:27):
very first client, and he was the instigator and starting
the forest trading coach because he used to buy trading
signals from me and he said, look, Andrew, would you
fly across to Australia to come and teach me? And
I spent about what four or five days with this
guy and his family back in two thousand and nine,
and that is how I started the coaching and he
was just thrilled with the system and thrilled with everything

(03:48):
that I taught him. And to this day he is
still trading now. This guy owns a number of restaurants,
very high end quality restaurants in NUSA in Australia. And
he traded back then the weekly charts and two today
he continues to trade just the weekly charts because for him,
he can have a look at these charts just once

(04:09):
a week early morning Monday morning in Australia, or he
can have a few minutes over the weekend because the
forest markets are shut of course, and you can have
a look through the weekly charts, and by the time
the market's open he can place trades exactly like we've
just placed on the panned Hong Kong dollar. And for
the rest of the week he's out there running his
restaurants and managing staff and happy customers, et cetera. And

(04:32):
so that is a very good solution because the weekly charts,
of course, you need to look just once a week.
The quality of the trade setups is very very good.
You'd have to worry about news events or anything like that.
Put the trade on, leave the trade to do its thing,
have a look at the end of the week. Do
I leave the trade open over the weekend if it's
still going, or do I close it if it's not

(04:53):
already hit the stop loss or profit target. So a
great solution for people who maybe are traveling, who have
got their own businesses just too busy to look at charts.
Once you understand what you're doing, you can place trades
like the panned Hong Kong goll a weekly chart trade
and end up let's say, with a one percent risk
a four point eight percent account gain. Try doing that
on many other markets and something that's taking you such

(05:15):
a short amount of time. However, the key to all
of this is not how little time you're going to trade.
The key is knowing what to look for. And so
the only way you're going to do that is to
spend just a little bit of time upfront and learn
to dedicate a bit of time to your knowledge and
your education so you have the ability to see these

(05:37):
type of trades and to take these type of trades. Now,
two things you can do there. One, if you'd like
to book a call with either myself or the team,
I'm going to put a link to our booking calendar.
We have opened up more available time slots so it's
available to anybody anywhere around the world. We can give
you a call on your home phone number or mobile
and have a chat about how we can help you

(05:59):
with your trading or see if we can help you
with the trading if it's going to be a good
fit or not. And the other thing you can do
is have a look at my thirty minute on demand
masterclass where I explain all about trades exactly like that
panned Hong Kong Dollar. Show you some trades on the
charts of what we're doing, how we trade using limit orders,
all those type of things that we do, and keeping
risk blow per trade, and of course not spending much

(06:20):
time on the charts each day. Now, the other thing
you can do and do yourself a favor if you're
out there looking for a good broker is. Have a
look at Blueberry Markets. They offer the empty four and
especially the Empty five trading platform. So you might find
some brokers don't offer markets like the panned Hong Kong Dollar,
but Blueberry Markets on the Empty five platform do and

(06:40):
that's the beauty of it. You can look for the
candle pattern and the chart pattern that is showing you
the best set up. It doesn't matter whether you have
any interest in the pand or the Hong Kong dollar,
doesn't matter if the technical trade setup is there. See
the trade, take the trade, profit from the trade, enjoy
your trading. Spend a few minutes once a week on
the weekly charts. You'll find they're incredibly good. I hope

(07:03):
that helps. Any questions, Please feel free to reach out
ask me directly Andrew at the Frost Trading Coach dot com.
If you're watching, don't forget to like and subscribe if
you're on YouTube or out of the social media platforms.
And I hope that helps for anybody out there that
looks that wants to look to trade properly, and who

(07:23):
feels that they don't have a ton of time to
dedicate to their trading on a daily basis, it's a
great solution. It's profitable, it's enjoyable. It's something you can
do just once a week and still trade the markets properly.
This is Andrew Mitcham here at the Frest Trading Coach.
I'll see this time next week by f NAT

Betrayal Season 5

Betrayal Season 5

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
