We think that the best way to learn about Forex is to mingle with Forex traders and, most importantly, ask a lot of questions. You're probably wondering where you can find these people. That's where the FX Power Course comes into play.

The FX Power Course is a popular online course that gives you access to instructors with years of market experience for less then 20 dollars. You get interactive instruction and feedback 24 hours a day for 8 days, and it gives you the opportunity to win up to $1000 in the Alumni Trading Contest.

This is an FXCM course and it is incredibly useful as is, but it also includes some extra perks if you open a Forex account through them. You can get your entire tuition credited to your trading account, plus you get access to an experienced instructor for 1 full year. Here's what you learn:

• Learn to identify clues about future market activity by reading charts.
• Find out when to place trades and when to take profits or losses.
• Know how to find trends and gauge their potential for profit.
• Understand the importance of political and economic events.

This FX Power Course is online, so you can study at your own time. Once your course begins, you go online to view the lessons, which take about 45 minutes each. Throughout the 8 days, the team of instructors is available 24 hours a day to help you learn; you can ask the instructors questions or discuss ideas with fellow students any time. By practicing alongside a professional, you will gain valuable insight on how to improve your trading and once you finish the course, the Alumni Forum membership let's you participate in the Forex community so you can stay in the know.

Right now, FXCM is offering the FX Power Course at an introductory price of US $19.99. Considering you get access to trading professionals AND the opportunity to win a thousand dollars through the Alumni Trading Contest, it's a great deal. You can purchase the course online, or if you have any questions, you can go to the FXCM site.

Trading foreign exchange on margin carries a high level of risk, and isn't suitable for everyone. Unique experiences and past performances in this course don't guarantee future results. So, if you don't take the time to read the lessons, ask questions and practice trading, you won't receive the full benefit of taking this course.
