That’s me.
I don’t trade spot forex.
I trade currency futures. That’s because forex DOES work out for me, though!
With currency futures, regulation and fund-protection are FAR better and safer. With currency futures, the broker really IS a broker and is on your side, Currency futures are a transparent market in which the prices are determined by trader interactions on a centralized exchange, not set by fake brokers for their own pretend products, so all brokers always have the same prices at the same times. You also don’t pay any spreads when you trade currency futures.
So obviously no retail trader who trades for a living would continue to trade spot forex long term. That would make no long term sense, really.
