Like the way you put it Halex :)
@Halexpark Ya I agree, I would never advise anyone to start big. However my only bone of contention is these cheap brokers like xm, fxview who allow trading from even a dollar or 5? What justice is that gonna do? Trading with like $5 or $10 won’t even enable learning from price fluctuations as the swings won’t be visible.

@forextrader777 That makes all the sense in the world.. sadly, newbies are also the first to fall prey to some brokers with hidden costs in the form of varying spreads that can go really high. Just curious... which broker did you start off with?

Yes Jake, the demo accounts do give an idea of the live ones. The market data is real.

@Kroolsc Learning is not enough for a new trader. They need to do some practice (preferably on a demo account) to test what they have learnt so far. This can prepare them for some typical situations.

I have been thinking about demo trading but after I read a few negative reviews about it, I never used it. But I think I should give it a try.

I don’t think that a new trader should go for large investments in the beginning. You must wait for some time until you obtain enough knowledge to manage your investments and prevent risks.

It’s good that you are aiming at making great profits in the forex market. But if you focus solely on making money, you won’t get what you want. It is your skills that get you profits in the long run.

Some newbies only look at profits which is not at all a good thing to begin with. Focusing on developing new skills and learning new things about forex is the way to go. Just looking at profits and money can be dangerous for them.
