The Donchian breakout has been around since the 1940s. There is no magic in order to trade the forex markets.

Despite the fact that Forex trading can be learned by anyone, 95% of traders lose money, let’s look at how to get into the elite 5% that make really big gains. Before we look at how to make big gains lets be clear about one key point - you have to make an effort! While you will be well rewarded for that effort, you still have to learn the basics.
