Using the renko indicator on MT4 or MT5 to find trades in forex
In this video we explain how to use the renko indicator on MT4 or MT5 to find trades as a scalping trader in forex. The renko chart is a perfect way to trade as it reveals the momentum in the market, something you never see on a time based chart. The reason for this is that a renko chart is not based on time, but on the size of the brick. This is what governs the open and close of the brick and once this metric has been met, the renko brick is closed and moves on to build the next.

To trade the euro you need to understand this first
The euro is a political currency and forex traders often wonder why such a currency moves in the way it does, with today being a classic example. An agreement has supposedly been reached about future policy by the member states, yet the euro has fallen and the answer lies in the bond markets and in particular the bond spreads. It is the spread between the German bond and the Italian bond which will ultimately dictate the future of the euro with Italy now likely to be the next country to leave the union.
