The decentralization of the spot forex market is really so well, so clearly and so repeatedly explained in this website’s excellent “school” that it seems very odd that it’s so misunderstood in the forum.
I’ve seen, in many threads, what looks almost like a “conspiracy” of apparent determination not to understand or even acknowledge the point.
I’ve even seen members being attacked and accused of spreading misinformation for referring to it!!
I just don’t understand it at all.
People trying to trade spot forex need to understand clearly that any purported “volume” figures that a CFD “broker” is claiming to give them are based only on the bets of their own customers, for the glaringly obvious reason that they don’t and can’t have access to any other volume information.
