    FROM THE FEDERAL RESERVE

    In a universe with a single currency, there would be no foreign
    exchange market, no foreign exchange rates, no foreign
    exchange. But in our world of mainly national currencies, the
    foreign exchange market plays the indispensable role of
    providing the essential machinery for making payments across
    borders, transferring funds and purchasing power from one
    currency to another, and determining that singularly important
    price, the exchange rate. Over the past twenty-five years, the
    way the market has performed those tasks has changed
    enormously.

      From Bruce Mott

    Not so long ago the average Joe could not trade currencies at all much
    less online. Like so many other things in our lives, the internet has
    changed all of that.  Forex trading has become a down-right rage.  Many
    are using the forex markets as a way to work at home.  Trading forex
    markets is not for the weak hearted.  One can lose one's shirt in the blink
    of an eye.  That possibility aside, when properly educated and exercising
    proper trading rules trading forex can be very lucrative.

    From Bruce Mott

    The Average True Range technical indicator, or ATR for short, is a very
    useful indicator because it instantly tells you how volatile the markets are. A
    low ATR reading indicates that the market is relatively flat with narrow trading
    ranges (which is why the ATR is always low in the overnight trading session)
    while a high reading indicates a highly volatile market.

    This may not sound very useful but the Average True Range indicator can
    reveal sudden increases in the ATR from a low base. This is a strong signal
    that the currency is potentially breaking out of a narrow range and about to
    make a big move one way or the other.

    The ATR indicator doesn't tell you the direction of the move, only the volatility,
    so once you see a strong increase you should take a look at other technical
    indicators to see if it's a position worth trading. The best positions are those
    that correspond with a MACD crossover and/or an EMA crossover such as
    the EMA (5) crossing the EMA (20), for instance.

    For additional confirmation you may also like to use Bollinger Bands, which
    provide another measure of volatility. A breakout from narrow Bollinger
    Bands in conjunction with a sharp increase in the ATR from a previously low
    base is an excellent signal that a currency is breaking out of a tight range.

    Overall it's definitely worth at least consulting the Average True Range
    indicator occasionally,  because it will instantly indicates how volatile the
    markets are and whether or not they are worth trading or just stay out.
