I always get confused with this stuff. I mean should I go with a broker that is very good when it comes to the trading conditions but charges high commision or should I just stick to no commission broker that provides okayish service?
Why not to find a broker who gives you good services but also charges less commissions? I think this would be a much easier solution. No?
I agree. There are many brokers that fall into this category like Oanda, XM etc. giving you good enough trading set up on low commissions. Spreads and leverage with most of these seem favourable too.
@James also do not forget to check the analytical features of the brokers, and what trading platform they give out. It is very important for smooth trading.

Garry, I agree that you won’t lose anything when you demo trade. But if a strategy works well on your demo account and fails when you go live?
Flexibility is the key to winning because if we are flexible enough we can earn a lot of good money. I was scalping because the markets were not that good. So there are many brokers in the market. When the markets were moving again I came to position trading through IB because of its good analytical tools. So you cannot always trust one strategy. The brokers charge their fees because they provide us services.
This is true but it should not be on the basis of the emotions, but rather on the basis of the state of the market.
Emotions can be very harmful for you if you have no control over them. And you should not let your emotions come between your trading.

The hard work you are talking about James, is for your own good. You only will get benefits from it. And since you are in trading, you need to manage time to trade. And if still you have enough money to pay to any broker, you can think of lending me some. Lol.

The idea you gave is good but it literally requires a lot of hardwork and most importantly time for finding such brokers.
You seem to be struggling very much in terms of making time. Brokers like FXTM, and Avatrade have these features where you can put your entire trading responsibility on somebody else called the forex account managers. But mind it, you can’t rely on them wholly. You have to be more dedicated.

My friend also suggested me to go for low deposits but I had already chosen some other broker. I wish I had waited for a little more time.

I can never compromise with services a broker gives. And why should I? I have put my money there and I should be getting everything whether it is about low spreads or high leverages.

Before going with a broker that is offering low spreads, you should know the average rates for a currency pair you want to trade. This will save you a lot of hassle later.

Most low spread brokers have the same spread value and it kind of depends on the pair as well. Anyway, you can go to different platforms and check the spreads they are offering.

But I read somewhere that the spreads also widen at the close of the market due to any news update or something. Is that right?
Yes, spreads do widen when there is low liquidity or high volatility in the market. release of major economic events and news cause panic in the market which increase volatility. And during opening and closing time there is hardly any trading volume thus the liquidity is very low which leads to widening of the spreads.
The more your practice, the more you learn.

That doesn’t always happen and about 95% of the times your spread is likely to remain low so don’t worry about it.

Indeed, there are very rare cases when the spread rises very sharply, so I don't need to worry about this.

I think it is better to go with ECN brokers that charge lower commissions and provide tighter spreads to their clients.
You should pick a good broker to survive in this market.

Some offer this. CedarFX have a 0% commission option. This natually will mean spreads might be higher than say a broker like IC Markets for example. You'd need to look into both and weigh it up. I use both brokers and the lack of commission is good for longer term trading where spreads maybe aren't as important as they are when scalping let's say. As always DYOR.
If you can't spot the liquidity then you are the liquidity.

No commission would mean wider spreads. As said by @seb king, you got to weigh your options. I would always go for broker with low spreads over no commission. Finprotrading, lmfx, fxchoice are some brokers I found good in this regard. One just has to ensure that the commissions are not too high.

I also prefer ECN brokers over other types as I get the best prices for all trades I execute with them. The good part is that most brokers offer ECN accounts making it easier for traders to find a good one for them.
