April 30, 2009 by Ron · Leave a Comment
In order to trade Forex you will need to open a Forex account with a Forex broker. There are wide range of Forex brokers available for you to choose from. Here are a few tips to keep in mind when opening an account with a Forex broker:
Check with the Commodities Futures Trading Commission — Before you consider opening an account with any broker check their status with the commodity futures trading commission to see if there are any complaints against them. You can also find out about the financial strength of a variety of Forex brokers at the CFTC website.
Forex account types – Most brokers will offer the following account types.
Forex demo account – A practice account with "virtual" money. Forex demo accounts are offered by most all Forex brokers at no cost to the Forex trader. This is the perfect place to practice your trading without any financial risk.
Forex micro account – An account that can be opened with as little as $25 and where the pip size can be as small as $.10
Forex mini account – A mini account can be opened with as little as $400.
Forex standard account – Standard account allows you to trade reached to move is the equivalent of $10. Standard accounts can be open for as little as $2000.
Forex managed account — This account type differs from the previous ones in that you do not trade it yourself. A Forex money manager is assigned to your account and decides how your account is to be traded and executes these trades on your behalf.
Now that we’ve reviewed some Forex account types let’s take a look at some other features that we might like to have as part of our Forex trading account.
Good Forex trading platform – A fast and reliable trading platform will make a world of difference in the speed and ease of executing your trades. Check out a couple of different trading platforms then select the one that feels best to you.
Lowest possible Forex spread – Since the Forex spread will basically be our costs in the Forex trade it’s wise for us to choose the lowest possible spread to keep our transaction costs at a minimum.
Customer service – It should go without saying that we want to have a Forex account with the best possible customer service. Check the website of the Forex broker you are interested in to see how easy it is to contact them. Call them on the phone and ask questions. Email them questions and see how long it takes for them to get back with you. These are just a few things that you can do prior to opening an account to give you an idea of how responsive the company is.
Fees – It may or may not come as a surprise to you but they are may be some fees involved with your Forex account that you aren’t immediately aware of. As an example, there are Forex brokers that charge you a fee for you to withdraw money from your account. Just make certain you know and understand the fee structure prior to opening an account.
We’ve covered some Forex account basics. Your next step is to check out the brokers that you’re interested in and contact them. If you can, open a Forex demo account with several different brokers to get a feeling for how their platform works. Keep good notes on the pros and cons of each Forex broker account you are considering. Once you’ve evaluated your notes you should easily be able to select the Forex account that’s right for you.

How To Find The Best Forex Software Review
April 21, 2009 by Ron · Leave a Comment
Is that a time-honored practice to look for recommendations from others before making a purchase of any type. It makes sense to see that others have found the product useful. Forex trading software is no exception, so it makes sense to seek out a good Forex software review before you purchase.
The quickest and easiest way to find Forex software review is by searching on the Internet. It’s pretty simple to type in the name of the Forex trading software you are interested in into the Google search box. From there you can go through the Google listings to find more information.
As we’re talking about searching on the Internet for Forex software review information here are some additional tips. It’s also a good idea to type in the word "review" to narrow down your search to specifically find review information. To further narrow it down you want to include everything within quotes as in the following example, "Forex trading product X review". Replace the word review in the previous example with "scam" or "complaint" to find out if there is any negative information on the product you are interested in.
Another great place to search for Forex software review information is on the many available Forex forums. You may have a better chance of finding more experienced Forex traders in forums and therefore a better chance of finding out which products are worth using and which are not worth using.
Here are a few additional tips to help you as you are searching for that perfect Forex trading software. Although testimonials are a good thing keep in mind that the testimonials you may find in the Forex market are typically when given by inexperienced traders.
As you search make certain that you look for some mention of the word "risk". To my surprise I’ve seen Forex software for sale with absolutely no mention of risk. Keep in mind that there is no such thing as reward without risk. Those who are selling Forex products and do not mention how risky Forex trading can be may also not be telling you other things about the software.
Make sure that you find some type of performance report or track record to substantiate the claims made by the product vendor choose one. Anyone can claim their software will make you 10,000% per month without showing you any type of proof that it has done so in the past. Something else to keep in mind is that even if you find a great track record that the past performance of any Forex software is certainly no guarantee of future results.
Lastly, as you scan through a number of Forex software reviews look for information on the guarantee that the vendor provides. Once you settle then on trading software you’re interested in then go directly to the vendor site and read all of the terms and conditions of the guarantee to make certain you are satisfied with it. Following the simple steps above will help you to make a more intelligent buying decision.
