I mean, what's your favorite websites? Where do you get charts so I can backtest? Is there any free software that makes backtesting easy?
Thanks for your help!

I personally prefer to trade on
this platform - it offers sensible spread, great leverage and you can trade not only forex but also, CFDs, options and sommodities. Also, you do not have to open a standard account right away. Instead, you can start with demo account (trading with virtual money), or if you are at a more progressed level you can start by opening a mini account for not more that $200.
good luck!
