The Practical Route to Disciplined Trading hits Johannesburg!

In early July, traders flocked to Johannesburg’s Protea Hotel to receive exclusive insights from FX Educator Jacques Nel. The Practical Route to Disciplined Trading is one of FXTM’s popular educational series, and provides traders with a comprehensive guide to the fundamentals of forex before delving into more complex topics.*

On the 1st of July, the series kicked off with a seminar which offered traders the chance to gain a firm grasp on the basics of trading. Mr Nel’s unique teaching style ensured that both forex novices and more experienced traders enjoyed discovering more about the thrilling world of trading. In between well-earned refreshment breaks, traders enjoyed introductions to trading and the financial markets, forex, indicators, and the Bollinger Bands strategy.

The turnout at the three-day workshop, from the 3rd to the 5th of July, exceeded all expectations. Traders who attended the seminar returned to consolidate their understanding, and first-time participants gathered from afar to learn about topics including risk management, applying advanced filters and applications to the Bollinger Bands strategy, trading psychology and formulating a trading plan.

We’re proud to receive such positive feedback from attendees, and are delighted to learn that so many traders found both events valuable. Following the Practical Route to Disciplined Trading seminar and workshop, attendees said they were eager to get back and try out their new trading strategies.

It has been a busy few weeks for our office in South Africa. On the 30th of June, we attended the 2018 International Forex Trading Expo at the Sandton Convention Centre. 2000 forex enthusiasts from South Africa and beyond gathered to hear world-class speakers talk about the currency market. It was a fantastic opportunity to share knowledge and experiences in person with so many traders.

Is Trump truly winning the trade war?

Escalating trade tensions between the U.S. and China remain the financial markets’ hottest topic. President Trump seems to be celebrating winning the first battle of this war, saying that “tariffs are working big time” in a Tweet on Sunday. He believes that they will enable the U.S. to start reducing the large amount of debt accumulated throughout Obama’s administration. Trump also cited that the steep fall in Chinese equities as evidence that tariffs are working. In his opinion, they will make the U.S. much richer than it currently is and that “only fools would disagree”.

The tariffs so far are approximately on $85 billion of imported goods. Assuming a 25% tariff, it would raise $21.25 billion. This number represents 1.33 % of the $1.6 trillion in additional debt President Trump has accumulated since taking office in 2017 and only 0.1% of the current $21 trillion in total debt. So, it doesn’t seem the imposed tariffs would reduce the American debt substantially.

In my opinion, a large portion of the tariffs will be paid by U.S. consumers and I also expect CPI figures to begin reflecting these higher prices, especially if Trump’s administration imposes additional tariffs on $200 billion of Chinese goods. Rising inflation leads to higher U.S. interest rates, translating into higher cost of borrowing and debt servicing. Several U.S. companies have cut their profit forecast as a result of these tariffs, especially car makers; shares of GM, Ford, and Fiat Chrysler fell sharply after announcing their results. Other U.S. companies affected by Trump’s global trade war include Tyson Foods, Harley Davidson, United Technologies, Caterpillar and Coca-Cola, among several others.

This explains why the S&P 500 failed to reach a new record high, despite 81% of companies so far managing to beat their profit forecast in one of the best earning seasons in history. Given that we’re almost at the end of earning season, trade wars will return to dominate the headlines. The next big risk is likely to be the U.S. midterm elections in November. I think there’s a high chance that the Democratic Party will take over the U.S. Congress and end the Republican single-party control. This won’t be good news for equities, and I expect to see rotation to non-cyclical stocks and an increase of cash in investors’ portfolios.
