Pattern Day Trader (PDT) rules do not apply to the Forex.
As far as I know there are no similar regulations in place on the Forex. You may trade as frequently as you'd like. I go with last trade for my charts; same as the stock market. |

No problem, Homie. Glad I could help. This forum leans more towards the stock trading crowd. There are forums out there that cater mostly or exclusively to Forex.
It'd be nice if we could get the traders of all these markets to congregate in one place though. __________________ I ramble about my day trading strategies at ChartShark.com You can also Follow me on Twitter @Chartshark |

Hi there,
I will suggest you to firstly identify what type of trader you are then follow the rules of that specific method of trading. For example, if you are a day trader it would be wise to ignore the fundamental picture. It would also be wise to analyze and trade with the appropriate time frames. Also, select a broker that offers tight spreads, provides good order fills and guaranteed stop losses (all important for effective day trading). If you are a swing trader it is important you look at the much bigger picture. Sometimes fundamental market data can come in handy (although I personally prefer to look at the technical picture alone). Learn to be patient, both in terms of your profit target being reached and entering trades (for swing traders it can be weeks with no trade signals). |

I usually used Last Trade price with varies time frames.
but if you are a scalper probably you find tick chart will be more useful. |
