It may be early in the morning or late at night, just depends on what part of the world you live in.
In order to make a trade you have to understand what's going on the market. Currencies are bought and sold in pairs. They move in relation to one another and these movements are what you make your trades on whether they will go up in price or down in price. If you sell, you go short, and if you buy you go long.

Do all you can to learn the market and you will be successful. It is not an overnight success story. It does take time.
