If you want to know what is Forex Trading, you can try with AVAFX. The website is available at www.avafx.com. Although the application is for Win*, but you still can run it in Ubuntu with Wine. I’ve tried it and it run smoothly with Wine.
I will not explain how to register an account, here. It’s a standard web register. So, there is no difficulty at all. Before we start, I assume that you have an account in AVAFX (Online Trading Center) already. If not than you can try with ‘Free Practice Account’. It’s a 21-day free practice account. Just click ‘Register Now’ and follow all the instructions.
For the starter you will have US$ 100.000 practice account. When you ready for the real thing, you can begin trading with a minimum US$ 100.
Step 1. Download the program and run it with Wine.
Goto your download directory, click with your Right Mouse Button then select ‘Open with ‘Wine Windows’ Emulator’.
-
Click ‘Next’ to continue.
-
Just use the default directory, so just click ‘Next’.
-
Click ‘Next’ to continue.
-
Don’t change anything and click ‘Finish’ to start the program.
-
Enter your Username and Password. Don’t forget to make sure that your Account type is ‘Demo’ then click ‘OK’.
-
Avatrader then will download additional modules.
-
If you use Mozilla, Wine need Mozilla HTML engine named Gecko. Just click ‘Install’ to continue the process. You don’t have to do anything, it’s automatically download and install the program.
-
After all process has done, you can start it by double click the icon on your desktop.
-
Below is the standard display of ‘Avatrader’.
-
I don’t like it. So, I modify until it becomes like below.
-
On the left is Line chart.
-
In the middle is the Current currency.
-
On the top right is the ‘Candle Chart‘. You can set how the program update the data. By ticks, minutes, hour etc.
-
On the right bottom is your Transaction. If you buy something it will be displayed in this list. The red color indicates your Buying is lower compare to your Selling. If you sell it in this period you will lose for amount displayed in each Net P/L field. For example you can see on Ticket 4556327, you will loose for 63.2 USD is you sell in this.
-
If the color is like below, now is your time to make profit. To sell your Forex, just click your mouse pointer on ‘Close’ field. For example, if you want to sell at Ticket 4555786, just click on ‘1.5991‘ field, then enter how much Forex that you want to sell.
Nice writing style. Looking forward to reading more from you.

Dude, just a warning, avafx is a known scamming company in the forex circle.
Man how much spam is on this post? everyone is just trying to sell you something huh.
Im after some information on a forex broker
I was wondering if you needed to put down 250 at easy forex when you sign up, I tried to sign up recently and one of the stages was a start up fee. Is this money credited to my account?
cheers 🙂
Nice Posting,appreciate it!
I think forex is not an easy market but trading it with good skill can give you big money.
Hello,
Yes, you can make money trading forex, but you need to have your profitable trading system, stick to it with good mentality and money management. The beauty of the Internet and computers is that this can be automated with experts advisors. Find a few profitable expert advisors and you will be very happy. Please be aware of the big amount of expertd advisors that simply don´t work and will make you lost money.
I highly recommend this 2 EA, check them and make your due diligence, maybe they are your EAs.

I really enjoyed reading your page… there is always more to learn… keep up the good work!
very interesting.
I think that I will be a avafx customer.
But
I use Mandriva Linux 2009 Spring with Wine 1.1.17 and I download the latest the latest AvaTrader release.
I use Wine to install it with no problem.
I start AvaTrader and can connect and login to the Ava FX server, but when AvaTrader must show the window with foreign currencies and indices as SP500, I have a date problem/issue.
Which wine release/version do you use ?
Which AvaTrader release/version do you use ?
Thanks for your help ?
I am now an avafax customer…Thanks
Awsome article, it’s my pleasure to read your blog.
Hi,
I’ve follow your instruction, it works, but not the economic calendar which is calling the browser (I use firefox). It just show a blank page. How can I fix this?
NIce info. Thanks for share
This is wonderful! How did you learn this stuff when you were new to it?
This is good info, I was unaware of this program. I’ll have to give it a whirl and write a review on it. Thanks for informing me of AvaTrader.
Looking forward to see how it performs.
I’ve just recently downloaded Mt4 Protect and wanted to tell you guys about my experience with it.
I was worried about all the Metatrader 4 virus’s out there at the moment as I heard you can get them from downloading Expert Advisors from the web.
While I don’t download decompiled expert advisors the last thing I want is some hacker getting my account details and draining my forex account as I have built it up into quite a bit of cash. That’s why I purchased MT4 protect so it can stop my account from getting attacked. I think the price is well worth the protection I will receive
I got a copy at http://www.mt4protect.com via paypal and my product code was sent to me within 4 hours.
I installed it and its great It works in the system tray and scans my computer in real time to detect any attacks.
The EA optimization tool is so great – you can allocate more memory to your MT4 terminal so your trades get executed faster! There are also heaps of registry tweaks and cleanup features that have turbocharged up my Windows 2000 computer.
With malware and virus attacks hitting Forex traders all the time now I definitely think that MT4 Protect is a worthwhile investment.
Great post, we would love to use this at our forex news website http://www.uwcfxassociates.com

Thanks for your advice given, i will apply it and recommend your site to my friends.

Forex is a great market to work in. I have been trading Fx for quite a while going through FXCM. However, I wanted to get away from Win crap. Unfortunately, there are not any good trading platforms available on Linux. I downloaded a platform from OANDA, but it is not a good platform at all.
AVA does not have a good reputation in the trading community, so I wish to stay away from them. Does anyone have any other ideas?
I really enjoyed your article. It was very informative, I really needed this information to make a good consumer decision. I read some relative information about the best Forex Trading Strategies. I think your readers would enjoy this information also.
Again thank you for sharing.
Stay away from Ava! I requested a withdrawal 2 month ago and they are still keeping time to process it….
I would suggest you a good fx signal website: http://www.myfxservices.com
all their traders shows a verified history trading of 1 year – I ‘m confortable with them since more than 2 month
Start with free CMS (content management system) like wordpress. Learn from tutorials in youtube about wordpres. And you don’t have to have a good technical skill. Basic HTML is enough for start.
