    ..."try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.sigmaforex.com/sigma-indicators/relative-vigor-index.html">Relative Vigor Index

    It was generated by John F. Ehlers. Relative Vigor Index (RVI) calculation is based on the idea that in a rising market the closing price is usually higher than the opening price, and on the bearish market the closing is usually below the opening price.
    The basic signals of Relative Vigor Index (RVI) are:
    1- Bullish divergence / bearish convergence - the main signal pointing to the weakness of the current trend.
    2- A good moment to open a sell / buy position is the crossing of the RVI line by the signal line from above/below once the bullish divergence / bearish convergence has appeared on the chart.
    3- In a flat market an exit from the overbought / oversold area is a signal to sell / buy.

    • Forex vs. Equities

    If you are interested in trading currencies online, you will find that the Forex market offers several advantages over equities trading.

    • 24-Hour Trading

    Forex is a true 24-hour market, which offers a major advantage over equities trading. Whether it's 6pm or 6am, somewhere in the world there are always buyers and sellers actively trading foreign currencies. Traders can always respond to breaking news immediately, and P&L is not affected by after hours earning reports or analyst conference calls.

    After hours trading for U.S. equities brings with it several limitations. ECN's (Electronic Communication Networks), also called matching systems, exist to bring together buyers and sellers - when possible. However, there is no guarantee that every trade will be executed, nor at a fair market price. Quite frequently, traders must wait until the market opens the following day in order to receive a tighter spread.

    • Superior Liquidity

    With a daily trading volume that is 50x larger than the New York Stock Exchange, there are always broker/dealers willing to buy or sell currencies in the FX markets. The liquidity of this market, especially that of the major currencies, helps ensure price stability. Traders can almost always open or close a position at a fair market price.

    Because of the lower trade volume, investors in the stock market are more vulnerable to liquidity risk, which results in a wider dealing spread or larger price movements in response to any relatively large transaction.

    100:1 Leverage
    100:1 leverage is commonly available from online FX dealers, which substantially exceeds the common 2:1 margin offered by equity brokers. At 100:1, traders post $1000 margin for a $100,000 position, or 1%.

    While certainly not for everyone, the substantial leverage available from online currency trading firms is a powerful, moneymaking tool. Rather than merely loading up on risk as many people incorrectly assume, leverage is essential in the Forex market. This is because the average daily percentage move of a major currency is less than 1%, whereas a stock can easily have a 10% price move on any given day.

    The most effective way to manage the risk associated with margined trading is to diligently follow a disciplined trading style that consistently utilizes stop and limit orders. Devise and adhere to a system where your controls kick in when emotion might otherwise take over.
