Leverage is an option for retail Forex Traders. Just find an ECN or STP broker and invest more than 10k dollars, then enploy proper risk management system to ensure you do not run out of money. Forex Brokers offer leverage to assist traders or help ...

You should not say any ECN broker would be fine for Arbitrage trading, many of them won't even want to hear you mention it. Seems all retail brokers forbid it. Maybe it is because traders make too much money off it.

This is one of the worst idea I have heard all day. Since when does someone design a system just to lose money. My advice is that you follow a trading signal, do the opposite of the signal all the time.

Almost all the important pairs moves at a considerable pace when something good or bad is happening in the corresponding economy. If there are no economic movement that could affect a pair or currency, it remains flat or slow. So, there is no one ...

Emotions can never be taken out of play. The quality I have tried to apply is called "Self Control". If I have a trading system, and proper risk management plan, self control will help me to stick to it at all times. I might lose today, but I will ...

That is what happens when you go into investment trade without a plan. Also, did you apply risk management system? I am seriously learning what is the proper risk management system, so that even if I lose my profit, I won't blow my account. I think ...

My broker offers fixed spread tat I ave noticed to be stable. Fixed spreads do not widen, from what I see on the platform during trading hours. It does no widen even when the market is most volatile.

I did not read the part where you actually told us whose fault it is that market is down. I mean, why is it that when the market is volatile and traders are looking to cash in profit, the broker's platform freezes? This question has bothered me and ...

I just stumbled upon this thread and it seems like an interesting one. Actually, what you have observed is based on what you have read and not on facts. With proofs(I can't lay my hands on screenshots right now), I have seen an account of a trader ...

Yes, better to lie to hide what you feel inside than lie to cheat or mislead others in a bad way. There are two kinds of lying, the "simple lie" and "Slanderous lie". You tell the latter to hurt someone and mislead people around the person. Or ...

From what I understand, Leverage does not affect your pip value. What affects your pip value is the volume of trade in lots. The higher the lot size the higher the pip value. High leverage gives your room to buy more, hence increase lot to increase ...
