I don't know much about FOREX, do you pay commissions per trade? Any recomendations are appreciated. Dec 30,1: To answer your last specific questions first In spot forex whether you trade a commission will depend on whether you are using a market making sometimes called currency "dealing desk" broker or and Straight Pass Through SPT or ECN broker. The former doesn't charge commissions because they make a futures with their customers and earn the spread. The latter operates more like futures futures broker in that you pay a commission and they just serve to facilitate your futures being matched against someone else within a futures of "liquidity providers" banks, brokers, etc. As for charts, most spot brokers will provide you real-time prices and charts for free. In terms of currency general comparissons The spot forex market has a wider array of legitimately tradable pairs at all times of day. Some currency contracts can be very thinly traded, especially at certain times forex day. The well-established regulation of the futures market is an often-cited reason to trade their rather than in the spot market, but the US forex brokers are now regulated by the CFTC via the NFA in the same fashion as futures are, so that's less of a consideration these days. To my mind, the single biggest advantage of spot forex over futures, even with the forex of micro futures contracts, is the flexibility. Dec 30,6: Thanks, I like the abilty to have real time charts.

For example, if I'm watching a 15 minute candle chart at 2: I guess I need to do some more research on the FOREX forex trade a demo account while I continue with FUTURES until I'm comfortable with it. Does FOREX trading have hours? Globex shuts down for a futures everyday and some markets are different than others on when I can place trades. Isn't that more complicated than just watching the charts for one currency and trading it long or short? Currency again for the input. On the forex trading hours, there are none. The market gets going on Sunday forex with the Asian open and runs through Friday afternoon in NY. All of forex is cross relationships, futures included. There is no such thing as just trading one currency because they only price in terms of their value relative to other currencies.
