Where do people go to get the best FX news and trading journals? Also, what is the best charts for beginners to learn.
Check out the WBP Terminal for news. It’s Bloomberg for us regular folk haha. If you trade with Vantage FX then they will pay for your subscription. Worth checking out.
MT4 is the most common and widely used platform for charts. I say go with that simply because of the ability to customize indicators. You’ll find so many cool things as your trading journey evolves.
Hi. When you open a demo trading account your broker will offer 2 or 3 trading platforms, mt4 being the most widely used.
You can practice on these as you complete the school. Sign up to myfxbook, that way you will get news feeds direct from them as well as having detailed charts of your trading
forex sites for news, try investing.com and economies.com they have good comment section, but i keep an eye open for more, social media is another good place but a bit complicated when it comes to materials that actually worth it. tey say bloomberg is also good, but usually some of my hotforex trades are done on good signals based on users of these sites, and its a good place to learn in general.
I usually refer to news sites like Investing.com, economies.com, bloomberg and forexfactory calender too for evaluating market conditions. Moreover I also noticed that my brokers send me some good bunch to news which is also a plus for my winning trades.
The Forex Factory calendar should be on the first page regarding news. Another good one is the forexlive.com which is pretty usefull with live comments I keep an eye on it all the time. Dailyfx is pretty descent too. The others I see have been mentioned already.
Cheers
The FF calendar is great when you just want a quick overview, but the fact you have to refresh your browser to see data releases is so 90s.
