Forex = Judi ? – Rumor Negatif Mengenai Forex

Banyak orang mengatakan bertransaksi forex sama dengan judi. Anggapan ini makin santer dengan adanya beberapa nasabah yang mengalami kerugian pada instrumen investasi yang satu ini.

Nah sekarang kita sampai pada topik yang sensitif. Banyak orang mengatakan bertransaksi forex sama dengan judi. Anggapan ini makin santer dengan adanya beberapa nasabah yang mengalami kerugian pada instrumen investasi yang satu ini. Belum lagi ulah para Pialang ilegal yang telah melakukan berbagai aksi penipuan berkedok forex trading yang membuat investasi satu ini memiliki stigma buruk dimata masyarakat awam.

Sama dengan investasi lainnya, forex trading pun memiliki potensi kerugian. Namun apabila forex trading dikatakan judi tidaklah benar. Pada perjudian, keuntungan dan kerugian bergantung pada spekulasi. Mungkin ada faktor analisanya tapi lebih besar faktor coba-cobanya dibandingkan analisa (spekulasi > analisa).


Hal ini berbeda dengan forex trading yang memiliki berbagai indikator analisa teknikal dan analisa fundamental untuk memprediksi pergerakan kurs valuta asing. Jadi trend menguat dan melemahnya suatu mata uang dapat diprediksikan dengan analisa-analisa yang ada (analisa > spekulasi). Meskipun masih memiliki unsur spekulasi (semua investasi tetap memiliki unsur spekulasi), namun persentasenya tidak lebih besar dari analisa yang bisa kita lakukan.

Hal yang jadi pertimbangan lainnya, seandainya itu adalah perjudian maka tentulah investasi ini dilarang keberadaannya oleh pemerintah Indonesia maupun oleh pemerintah negara lainnya. Alih-alih dilarang, keberadaannya semakin menguat dan perputaran uang yang terjadi malah yang terbesar dibanding produk bursa lainnya. Di Indonesia sendiri keberadaannya diatur secara resmi melalui UU No. 32 Tahun 1997 yang membahas Margin Trading. Memang ada undang-undang mengenai perjudian yang isinya adalah melarang kegiatan perjudian. Sementara forex trading keberadaannya diatur oleh undang-undang, bukan dilarang.

Jadi kembali kepada definisi judi itu sendiri dimana faktor spekulasi menjadi lebih dominan dibandingkan dengan analisanya, maka forex trading dapat menjadi sebuah perjudian (terutama bagi mereka yang baru) apabila Anda menjalankannya dengan cara berikut:

• Tidak mengetahui risk management dengan baik.
• Tidak melakukan analisa terhadap harga pasar baik secara fundamental maupun teknikal.

Ketiga point diatas menjadi masukkan bagi Anda untuk memulai investasi di forex trading. Tanyakan kepada diri kita masing-masing apakah pialang tempat kita berinvestasi adalah pialang resmi? Apakah kita telah mengetahui manajemen resiko apa saja yang dapat dilakukan untuk menghindari kerugian? Dan apakah kita telah mampu menganalisa pergerakan harga dengan tepat (mungkin tidak harus selalu tepat, tetapi setidaknya sebagian besar tepat)?

Jika ketiga hal tersebut dapat Anda lewati, maka BelajarForex mengucapkan selamat datang pada sebuah investasi yang amat menjanjikan bagi keuangan Anda! Namun jika Anda merasa belum dapat melewatinya, jangan berkecil hati. Jika memang masih memerlukan waktu lebih lama untuk kembali belajar, itu lebih baik dibandingkan memulai lebih cepat tetapi berujung pada kerugian.
