Dear All

I am looking for FX Futures pricing, preferable chart displayed.

I do not want to physically trade FX futures, just to see up-to-the-minute prices.

Does anybody know if there is a source for this? I would be most grateful if you would share that with me.

Many thanks.

Kind regards
Robert

I understand it. In that case you need to deposit sum in future account and keep it idle in account and obviously it may attract non activity fees yearly basis.
In most of the cases non activity accounts (fx-futures) ain't allowed to open . You can try most of banks dealing with Fx, offer future trading option.
Btw. why you need future charts? From analysis point of view its useless. Whatever strategy you make remember you must NOT avoid money makers storm
in trading. Pre plan your money management and stay on. Good Day Friend.

Dear yesyoucan

Many thanks for your detailed and very helpful response.

I want to see if I can use FX futures price movements to give some clue about FX spot market pairs (which is what I trade). I have read in some places that movements in futures prices can give indications about which way the various FX pairs may go.

Not sure if this is true but wanted to investigate.

Do you have any experience you can share?

Kind regards
Robert

I don't want to recommend Iron FX and/or GCI trading (no experience with them) but they offer currency futures. You can open a demo account there.

Hi RB - not sure if this will help? I have been with them for 9 yrs and trade the currency futures as well . Each future is against the USD . This is a free charting platform.
Good luck with your search.

To some extent some time Spot Fx price could have difference with future price. Say Euro/Usd is 1.1030 and future quotation 1.1022. So now you feel market tends to go down some pips and you determine to short the instrument. May be you become successful in few events and it provoke you to increase lot size and your mind supposed to be ready trading with big volumes with 5 to 7 pips profit targets. But sometimes you also notice spot fx price 1.1020 and future is 1.1003
and dramatically future turns 1.1032 and spot 1.1040. So you absolutely clueless what cooking inside. As Forex isn't centralized exchange so price movements and spread can't determined by volume analysis also. And you have bigger possibility to stuck in trade with bigger volumes and will lead to account destruction.

Better you trade small use MA and hold positions with directions. It'll take some time to achieve desired results.

Dear yesyoucan

Many thanks for taking the time to offer your much-appreciated advice.

Your view of using MA is in my opinion absolutely correct. I do not believe any other indicators are of use (certainly not as signals).

I only intend to use the futures as one aspect of the decision-making process. If MA direction, futures and formation on the chart are in confluence then that may be helpful. I know there is nothing any of us can do to mitigate for or manage big spikes and volume in FX is meaningless.

Thank you also to binnie and GU-Night for your contributions.

Kind regards
Robert

To anybody who genuinely wants to learn how to trade profitably:

Roll up your sleeves and get very busy. Be willing to put in hundreds of hours of chart study and strategy testing, just like everybody else — whatever it takes — and relatively few hours reading info on forums. And keep in mind that the vast majority fail, and hence the odds are that — unless you have exceptional intelligence, discipline, nerve and stamina — you will end up being one of them.

In all cases, you will have to subscribe and pay the exchange fees, which is GLOBEX (CME) in the case of currency FX futures. Any market data terminal offering it will do the job, you can do Metastock (And subscribe to GLOBEX and pay the monthly exchange fees), you can do eSignal, you can do TradingView.com, anything.

Optimus futures has mt5 and you can make a demo to watch futures prices on a large number of contracts. They also have some of the lowest day margins Ive found (through AMP futures).
