How to start your forex trading day on MT5

How to start your forex trading day on MT5

At the start of the London forex trading session I explain how I use the currency trading dashboard for MT5 and the steps to follow in highlighting the opportunities ahead for the session. The currency dashboard comprises the currency strength indicator, the currency matrix, the currency array and finally the currency heatmap. All have a part to play and I start with the currency strength indicator which is our radar on the market and not hard to understand why. 1.

And the news for the pound was made worse by the release of news concerning a vaccine trial which had run into problems. So not a happy time for the pound at present! https://youtu.be/s8mBkIEETOo...
