The most offensive thing, of course, is to get caught by scammers who will really take you away your funds that you will earn. And if the broker is normal, well, like Amarkets with a spread of 0.2 pips, then all sides are in the black

Hmm, I think so. It's always important to remember that a broker is not your best friend, he's doing his job and is always looking for a profit to make. Although, I know a company They have customer service, actually the same brokers, but they really work for the customers, not for themselves. I think brokers make money even when they lose clients.Perhaps another component is taken into account from the process of working with the client, no matter what he left. It is true that we won't know these nuances until we get into this kind of work ourselves. But I think there are many articles on the Internet on this topic. I will have to read it, I am very interested in this question. Let me know if you find anything about it.

A ECN broker uses commissions and spread. They are the truest form of broker as they are not on the other side of your trade. In theory they want you to keep your capital so you can continue to trade and they make their commission

In return for executing buy or sell orders, the forex broker will charge a commission per trade or a spread. That is how forex brokers make their money. ... The difference between the bid and ask price is the broker's spread. A broker could also charge both a commission and a spread on a trade.

As I know the broker get profit from spread and trading commissions, like as money changer take profit from difference bid and ask the more transaction volume, the bigger profit will be obtained
but maybe a company not only gets income from its source, but it possible they also work in another investment.

Brokers make money by spending money. To make money as a trader, you must have skills and experience. We would lose our money otherwise.

Depends on the type of broker. ECN make money from the commission they charge. Bucket hop will make money from the spread and from betting against you and taking your losses
