Choosing a Forex Online Trading System
or Forex Trading Platform is a lot like
Finding the Perfect New Car...
Choosing a Forex online trading system,
or Forex trading platform is likely to
involve taking a few test drives. Lucky for
you, most Brokers offer free demo
trading accounts, so you can "try before you
buy."
The Setup
Once you sign up for a demo account, you
download and install the trading platform
software on your computer. Depending on the
choices you make when you sign up, your
account will be loaded with "virtual
money" to practice trading with.
You should request a demo setup which will
most resemble what your actual Forex online
trading system account would be, should you
decide to open one. That is, if you only
plan to open a "real money" trading
account with $10,000 in it, avoid opening a
demo account with $100,000 of virtual money
in it. The learning value of a demo account
is greatly increased if closely matches your
real-life situation.
Try test-driving as many Forex online
trading system demo accounts as possible.
The longer you can practice trading, the
more of a feel you will get for how the
prices move.
Price movements are especially important to
understand when we discuss leverage and
volatility and how they affect your trading.
Account Size
The competition for your trading dollars
between brokers is fierce. Some offer to
open a live account with as little as $25.
Once you understand how volatile Forex can
be, you'll realize you can likely consider
such a small account a "donation" to the
market, as it will likely be gone before you
can blink.
Probably the most important thing to
consider when funding your trading account
is how much you can afford to lose. I know
this doesn't sound very encouraging, but
there is a very real risk you may lose the
entire value of your account.
Never trade with money you cannot afford
to lose.
How you trade will determine the
profitability of any account. Be very
careful of the traps brokers use to get you
to over-trade. Every trade you take is
actually a trade against your broker and
they usually put their interest ahead of
yours, so beware.
