so baiscly what I'm learning from this is that we should all go for a longer-term trading system.
this way we are less volunarble to scams.

i dont think a longer term trading system will mitigate many of the issues JR has with Forex. one of the main points is that forex brokers are unregulated.

this potentially effects all aspects of any strategy. if they go out of business, you most likely lose your money, they regularly skew prices (leaning), actively go stop-hunting, and unless you have a specific reason to trade forex (e.g. time of day or a currency pair that does not involve the dollar) than it is better to trader currency on the futures exchange.

My intention why I put this link into the forum was not to stop all beginners learn about FOREX and go into the Futures Market. I just wanted to make you all aware how this business works in the moment. Especially all newbies who think they are really smart and better than all the others, so that they will make a lot of money in a very short time. I'm pretty sure many of you are really smart guys, but to play against professional traders who can set the quotes and decide if and when they accept your order could be very hard. However, this situation will change. I'm quite sure that in future we will have a centralized FOREX market. There is a very promising venture called FXMarketSpace (FXMarketSpace Home) which could revolutionize the FOREX business. But it will take some time until all this happens. So we all have enough time to learn everything about FOREX and find the perfect trading system which makes us all rich when this time comes. FOREX is the market of the future, I believe in it.

The other reason why I posted this link is that we all who want to trade the Spot FOREX Market can learn a lot from the futures market. There are a lot of strategies which are not (yet) in the Babaypips School of Pipsology. You can find some of them in the book "FOREX Conquered" by John L. Person. Sorry, for advertising this so obviously, I don't get any money from them. But I think it's one of the best FOREX books available in the market. You can also find some information about FXMarketSpace in this book.

So my advise for all: Don't be too scared about this article, it should just open your eyes. Be aware of what you are doing and learn as much as possible. I'm sure you won't regret it, also if it takes a lot more time than you expected before.

so your saying that one should go live with any forex brokers, because they trade against you . that is even more confusing. because i was thinking of going live end of this year, now i m all confused again
