Forex WIN WIN

i m new to forex.
i do read some article here.and online.
but maybe the english is poor. and not really understand.

may i know some point.
as i know,

  • for bank, there always EARN. cause they earn spread.
  • for broker, they also earn the spread.

if trader also win/earn. then who is the LOSS?
Thanks

Obviously not every trader wins. In fact, most traders lose.

For every Trade there is a person Buying and a Person Selling. If the price goes higher, the buyer and the broker make money. If the price goes low, the seller and the broker make money.

Ya. Thanks
just for make my mind clear.
let say all trader buy.
then and the price is getting high. in this case. broker will loss?

For every buyer, there must be a seller. So it is impossible for Everyone to be buying. Who are they buying from? (a seller).

Now, sometimes the Broker might be the seller (these are Brokers that have a Dealing Desk). In essence, they buy when you sell and sell when you buy.
Eg: Suppose they have people wanting to buy 10 lots. Then they have People wanting to Sell 6 Lots. Well, they will pair the 6 sellers, with 6 buyers, then they will sell off 6 lots to the remaining buyers. They will either keep this or they will pass it along to a liquidity provider.

In the end though, there is always a seller for every buyer, and if the price goes up, those sellers lose money. Whether they are average Joe’s like you and me, a Dealing Desk like Forex.com, or big time investers / banks.

:Dmm…
so bank will be loss in this way. if they as a SELLER.
Thanks.

I suggest, don’t bother even thinking about it, spend your energies on something more productive, making sure you’re the winner :wink:

As you probally know there are tons of more losses being made on the forexmarket then winnings.

So there is always someone that loses money.
