This month I’m going to be putting a Forex broker in the hot seat and asking the hardest questions in the world about Forex trading …
YOURS!
Yes indeed, I’m working on getting a Forex expert from a brokerage firm to allow me to shine the overhead light in their face and interrogate them with the questions you want answered.
But before I can do that … I need your questions.
So click on this link and submit your Forex questions now. SURVEY IS NOW CLOSED
First come/first served. The survey is limited, so complete the survey immediately. I’ll collect the questions, put the most common ones into the interview, and then let you know when it’s ready (later this month).
Rude questions/comments will be excluded of course, but don’t be afraid to ask tough questions. The purpose of this interview will be to get real answers to sincere questions, even if the questions are hard ones.
You can access the Survey here.
WE RECEIVED 262 QUESTIONS!
THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR YOUR RESPONSES. SURVEY IS NOW CLOSED. INTERVIEW WILL BE PUBLISHED AT THE END OF APRIL.
How much are the alogrithms weighted in favour of the market maker?
Why not use the Currency Futures?
Joe Potts
Why not invest in Currency Futures instead?
all the tech analysis,indicators,trading systems are available to all the traders in the market & still in FX market someones loss is someone else’s gain.What do good ( successful) traders see differently that their win rate is better than others?
When trading Forex major pairs, I see on Level 2 that the spread is usually less than 1 pip, and rarely reaches 2 pips. But on many brokerage sites, I see spreads fixed at 2, 3, and sometimes 4 pips for the EURUSD pair. So what are the services or benefits we taders receive that justify marking up the spread so much? Or is it mostly greed? Of course there are customer service needs to be paid, and differences in dealing desk and non-dealing desk expenses, but still, there seems to be quite a large variety of pip markups betwen different brokers with litle obvious difference in services that I can see.
thank you !!!! good luck trading !
Forex questions:
– Are market makers/floor traders active in the forex market.
– If “yes” how do market makers manipulate the forex markets.
– How do I do preliminary research to determine which forex pair to trade?
– Are their “preferred” pairs to trade?
Thanks,
Barry

Do you have a gap trade strategy that can be used with currency trading?
One more question. Why is there a pip difference of 35 pips between the terminal and the screen in the trading platform? For example on the screen with the horizontal line tracing the price action it might say 0.99977 and then down in the terminal area under price it will read 1.00012.
Can you list 5 top(low spread, low slippage, reliable order execution) brokers for trading in Forex if any? Thanks.

I been trading forex sincelast 8 months lost £8,000 and not made a single penny. My qustions are as follows-
Do the Brokers hunt down your stops puposely?
Where do the brokers get quote from?
If there are large banks which provides the quotes then they must know where the market is heading, i mean they can see clearly the direction and movement of market, so they must also be able to see peoples stops and percentage of volumes trading against another pair? is there any method that we can access the same data?
What sort of volume can move a pip in forex, say for example EUR/USD trading at 1.3542 what volume can move it to 1.3543?
Could you recommend any honest brokers who can offer high leverage and less spread, not hunting down your stops?
My other questions remains the same such as how to recognize trend, momentum, energy, when to enter market, etc etc. because i am still learning, tried everything but ended up with loss. So all together I want to be successful trader and want to make profits. I think i have written alot, hope you dont mind. Please let me know when can i expect you answers.
Kind Regards,
Irfan

Because forex trends can go on for an extended time does the 5 wave rule still hold true. It is not uncommon to see waves in the double figures when a currency pair is moving.
Best regards

Hi Barry,
I have been trading BVF-TSX for about a month.
Average daily volume trading hrs. is upto 4PM is aprox.400,000 shares.
Between 4 pm to 5 pm another 1.6 million shares got sold or bought today and it has happened many times before.
4PM share closing price was $16.71 and after 5PM it was $16.76.
Is it within the exchange rules or is it legal to allow anybody to buy or sell that large qty. of shares after (4PM)when the market is closed without informing other traders of the same security and also can they change the 4PM closing price.

i have no idea of what you are saying, it looks like answering a queston with a queston
I am still a little bit confused how to earn much money on Forex Trading, i know several people who earn thousands of bucks from forex trading.,:~
You should really think about expanding this site into a major authority in this market. You clearly have a fundamental knowledge of the topics everyone is looking for on this blog anyways and you could possibly even make a dollar or three off of some advertising. I would dive into following recent trends and increasing the number of write ups you make and I bet you’d start earning some awesome traffic in the near future. Just a brainstorm, good luck regardless!
Hi Erik,
Thank you for the comments and encouragement.

If you could do something you never did before would you?
I mean writing about Answers To YOUR Your Most Pressing Forex Trading Questions |
is good but is it a safe subject considering your webpage
is about forex trading? All things considered it is a great piece however I bet you
could try branching into other subjects like
forex trading training free for example.
Just an idea… I pray you do not mind me saying that.
