If you are interested in Forex trading one of the first things to consider is where to open a Forex trading account. You need a good Forex trading broker. In the United States, a reputable Forex broker will be registered as a Futures Commercial Merchant (FCM) with the CFTC (Commodities Futures Trading Commission). Forex trades are highly leveraged, i.e. the broker lends an investor up to 99% of the money required to trade.
Therefore, your Forex trading broker should be associated with a company that has sufficient capital. Forex trading accounts are not covered by the FDIC (Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation). The Forex markets trade 24 hours a day 5 days a week worldwide. Some brokers offer email support and live chat online. Forex brokers do not ask commissions the way stock or bond brokers do. If a broker offers you fixed spreads on all trades you have the advantage of predictability.
