My Experience on the app

After downloading the app, it took me about 5 minutes to understand the dynamic of the app. To be frank, I lost my first two trades on the app, but I have been winning since then. One of things I love most about the app is the risk management feature: that is the stop loss and deal cancellation features. If you understand how to use this two features and take profit well, you will minimize your loses and maximize your profit. I also love the news tab features which focused on x-raying market trends and new products.

Few things to note when using the App

1. Loses are inevitable: Just like trading on DMT5, DTrader or the website, you will encounter some loses some times, but your ability to minimize those loses and maximize your profit is what makes the different, that is where the risk management features comes in.

2. Analyze and be confident about your trade calls: Do proper analysis before placing your trade, allow it to either hit your stop loss or take profit level.

3. Learn to control your emotion: In almost all my post and videos, I have echoed the need to have a good trading psychology. If you allow your emotion to control you while trading, you will always be in the losing end

4. Access, Analyze, Trade and Control your trade: This is how Deriv expert puts it, access all tradable assets, do your analysis, place your trade and control it with the risk management features.

5. Making money is a product of consistency: Don’t try to make all the money in this World in a day. Take it slowly. I am successful today, because of consistency.

Trading Forex is risky, you can lose your capital, please apply proper risk management and trade with only what you can afford to lose.
