Hello!First I want to thank you for your website hepinlg beginner traders out.Second, I wnat to tell a bit about myself. I am a Finnish English language and culture student, looking to be a teacher, and I got interested in trading when I started looking for ways to make some cash to add to my poor students budget. Particularly I got interested in binary options as they yield up to 80% profit in as little as 30 minutes if you guess the markets direction correct.Before I dare to make any bets with real money however, I want to learn everything there is to know about the markets, so I can hopefully have some kind of an edge in betting the markets. I hope that you will help me with useful information about the currency and commodities markets of which you are an expert. I have some questions for you and if you have some useful information which might allow me to predict market movements more accurately, please tell me.1. I presume that the price of currencies moves up when someone is buying and down when someone is selling, how much the graph moves is determined by how many players or how big players are doing the trades at any given time, am I correct?2. I have watched three currency pairs now for a few days and I think Ib4ve found a pattern ( I need to watch more and verify this before I can trust it). I noticed that the GBP/JPY, EUR/JPY and USD/JPY all went down during the morning hours Finnish time (about 4-5 pm Japanese time), so the Yen was gaining in relation to these currencies during the Japanese workday and after 12am Finnish time (10am British time) the graph started moving back up again over the hours as banks ans stock exchanges opened in Europe and closed in Japan. Have you noticed similar patterns in other currencies? If you have please tell me, for if I can locate a regularly occurring pattern that can be somewhat depended upon, I can bet on it and make some cash to fund my exchange student period and other things. If you have any information on things that occur regularly during business weeks, please inform me, I would be very interested.3. This is how I made some fake cash in the demo mode of my binary options trading account, I guess it was beginners luck or something, but not bad for a first day ever of trading. I watched the price of oil and suddenly in a space of a few minutes the price dropped some 250 points if I remember correctly (I also made a note of it that oil price can infact change so dramatically so fast) and I placed my binary option above call near the bottom of the spike and then hoped for it to climb above it and it did, it rose back to about the average level in a few minutes and stayed there until the clock reached half past and the option expired, so I won. This kind of spike hunting is a good strategy I think, because an above average change in the price will mostly be counter-acted, so a rise will be followed by a fall and a fall by a rise. Can you tell me anything useful about these commodities (these three commodities are offered for binary option trading by my on-line broker) Gold, Crude Oil, Copper. Are there any patterns I can rely on? What are the major factors affecting prices ( I realize that there are thousands of factors at play but what are the major ones?)?4. How much can a single player move the graph, how many points? For example, if a large bank sells all of its Yens all at once, how many points could I expect the graph to go down?5. I read somewhere that so called news days are bad for trading, I think thursday was mentioned as a news day on the Forex markets. What happens on these days, can you tell me about them, should I avoid these days or what? Is the market unpredictable on these days?6. How much is the average movement range in currencies in a time period of 30 minutes to 1 hour? 100 points? How much movement is considered average and how much is considered sluggish or above average?7. How much movement in a currencys rate results in an intervention by a very large player such as a central bank or a national bank? 500 points? 1000 points?8. Do you have any tips or pointers for me? What to watch out for? What to avoid and be careful about? Do you have any book recommendations or websites that would prove useful in learning about the markets?Thank you for your help.-Jouni Sormunen, Finland
