  1. 5 things to ask yourself before choosing a Forex Broker Choosing a forex broker to trade with is a personal choice. However, hundreds of brokers are out there, and many new traders find it hard to choose one. Here are a few things that you must check for. 1. Regulatory compliance A regulated broker will follow strict guidelines to protect your funds and maintain transparency. Look for brokers regulated by authorities like the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC), or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), to name a few. 2. Spreads and fees A good broker will offer tight spreads like 0.0 pips in major currency pairs so that you can trade more actively. 3. Available currency pairs Brokers that offer a diverse range of currency pairs will help you to diversify your portfolio. 4. Account types offered Choose an account type that meets your trading goals and risk tolerance. Some brokers also offer demo accounts, allowing you to practice trading and develop strategies without risking real money. 5. Margin and leverage A good broker will offer you a reasonable margin and leverage based on your available funds.
  2. How does risk-on-risk-off (RORO) influence forex trading decisions?
  3. Risks in forex trading should have minimal risk, and then we will be able to trade with the maximum. In forex trading, the risks are so great and difficult to predict well that we need to minimise the risk by having good risk management.
  4. I currently trade with FP Markets using their offshore licence from St. Vincent, which provides a high leverage of 500:1. There were no issues such as spreads widening or servers freezing.
  5. I prefer trading with FP Markets using their ECN account because the commission is lower when compared to other similar ECN brokers at $6 per round lot, and the spreads are suitable for scalping, averaging around 0.1–0.3 pips in major pairs and starting at 0.0 pips in EURUSD.
  6. I agree that using an ECN broker has many advantages, such as low spreads and commission costs. But beginners should look for demo brokers, which can be an advantage for them during the initial stages. Such as Avatrade or FP Markets, their demo account is not just free, but they also provide educational materials for newbie traders entering forex for the first time.
  7. I have been trading with ICM so far, and it is a good broker. I would rate it 3 out of 5 because of the bad customer service, but other than that, the trading conditions are good. I will be comparing it with FP Markets, though, because I can see several traders giving it a better rating, and when I checked, their spreads were similar and the commission cost was lower as well.
  8. Choosing the broker eventually comes down to each trader; as long as traders enjoy and feel comfortable using the trading environment at these brokers, they will usually continue to use the broker's services. For example, I have chosen FP Markets as my favourite broker and have traded with them for more than 4 or 5 years with no problems.
  9. It is critical for a trader to be able to appropriately handle funds while working. You can work without it, but you won't go far.
  10. If you are a beginner, I would suggest the EURUSD because it is the most used pair by many traders, and compared to other major pairs, the EURUSD provides some of the lowest spreads. For example, I trade with FP Markets, an ASIC broker, and when trading EURUSD, the spreads drop to 0.0 pips.
  11. I do not mind if the broker does not provide any bonuses because I look for good trading conditions and reliability, like at FP Markets. The commission cost is lower at $3 per lot, with spreads starting at 0.1 pips, and since it is regulated by ASIC, they adhere to strict capital requirements, so there is no room to worry about the money.
  12. It has been over a couple of years working with FP Markets, and I have not faced issues, so I cannot say that forex is a scam. It all depends on knowledge, being wise, and not rushing without any proper strategy or plan.
  13. I do not mind if the broker does not provide any bonuses because I look for good trading conditions and reliability, like at FP Markets. The commission cost is lower at $3 per lot, with spreads starting at 0.1 pips, and since it is regulated by ASIC, they adhere to strict capital requirements, so there is no room to worry about the money.
  14. A good and trustworthy trading broker never causes problems when withdrawing funds. However, it is unfortunate that the bulk of brokers cause problems while withdrawing funds. However, FP markets never cause any problems when withdrawing trading cash.
  15. I still use the MT4 trading platform the most in my everyday trading with FP markets. I've tried MT5, but I'm more familiar with MT4. In addition, MT4 is also suitable for scalping because of its faster execution and tight spreads.
