Hi HanaHannah here at the forum you could find really helpful tips and tricks. I will recommend you to start from the alphabet :)
See at the link below https://www.forex-tsd.com/forum/commercial-talks/1810316-free-beginner-guide-pdf-s-forex-futures The documents from datamonkey are nice ones  
Good luck ;)
 
In order to start trading Forex it´s necessary to consider a few things in advance. On first place it would be a good idea to examine the Brokers and what they offer so that you could pitch on a reliable one. In order to trade currency pairs it would be necessary to invest some time to get know the market conditions better. In this case very helpful could be webinars, videos  and other literature, for instance under this link could be found very interesting books https://www.forex-tsd.com/forum/debates-discussions/13074-forex-books
 
I prefer trading with manually, than to trade with the bots in Forex Market. I like to have control over my trades, than to hand it over to some bots.

I do agree with you Afro- head. Personally I also trade manually with the support of few indicators. That way I’m sure if I lose/win will be my decision.

By the way, Codersguru is the member of our forum (his profile link) and he is the author of the famous MQL4 trading courses which he provided online on TSD forum.

How to buy a Trading Robot in MetaTrader Market?
The process of purchasing

Everything starts with the Activation in the Market. When you buy a product you do not actually get the product itself but the right to use it an unlimited number of times, but on a limited number of computers. This parameter is set for each paid product individually and it is disabled for free products.

After one activation you can use the product on a computer without any restrictions. You will not be able to download the copy of the product on another computer. If you installed the file manually, you will not open it either. Number of activations can be found on the page with a detailed description of the product in the column with its specifications (described above).

How to Test a Trading Robot Before Buying
Buying a trading robot on MQL5 Market has a distinct benefit over all other similar options - an automated system offered can be thoroughly tested directly in the MetaTrader 5 terminal. Before buying, an Expert Advisor can and should be carefully run in all unfavorable modes in the built-in Strategy Tester to get a complete grasp of the system, seeing that every Expert Advisor offered on MQL5 Market has a demo version available.
