choosing a broker

[trader545]

It's really good to try different brokers with different platforms, because experience is the most important. But after trying, I think, it's better to find THE ONE, that suits you best - who has a reputation in the financial market, where the customer care support is very good and of course, it must be safe and reliable!

Definite demos help to grow yourself matured. The best investment is always the investment on your brain. Without a doubt, Forex trading needs much more than just a few guidelines or tips to be successful. Experience, knowledge, capital, fortitude, and even some help of luck are all crucial in one’s success in the FX market. if you lose in a trade, do not lose the experience in it. Learn from your mistakes and regain your position in the next trade

Well there were a lot of good tips in the previous postsl. I would like to add a little advice of mine. One of the things i look at, when choosing a broker is its regulatory environment. I prefer using regulated broker and be sure that my funds are protected.

These 5 things to look for will help you find the best Forex broker, the one that's right for you.

1.) Minimum Deposits

As an expert trader, the first thing I look for in a broker is always the minimum deposit. Those offering mini accounts, with a minimum deposit of $25, are generally great for more inexperience, possibly new traders. Those which offer higher minimum deposits are generally geared from more professional, experienced traders who are ready to risk more money trading currencies. While this isn't an indication of whether or not it's a quality broker, it surely tells you the type you're dealing with.

As a newer trader, a mini account with a small initial deposit is a great choice. If you're an expert trader, choosing a broker with an advanced platform geared towards experienced traders may be the best option.

2.) Customer Reviews

Independent reviews and testimony's are very important because they show you the types of experiences real people have had with a specific brokerage. When looking for reviews, remember that people are more likely to post if their experience has been negative and reviews on a broker's own website will always be positive, so I wouldn't even take those into account as they are usually biased.

3.) 24/7 Customer Service

Customer care is extremely important to me! If you're having trouble with execution, using the platform or making deposits & withdrawals, it really helps to have understanding, knowledgeable & caring customer service agents on your site 24 hours a day. Talking to a real person about a question or problem is so much easier and more convenient than reading an FAQ page. You deserve a broker with 24/7 service, after all, it's your money!

4.) Other Services Offered

Check for market news feeds, commodity trading or other currency pairs besides the majors that are offered by all brokers. These types of services may not seem like a big deal now, but once you're making money and gaining experience, you may be interested in them later.

It's also important to note that a broker which offers more services generally has more financial backup, meaning the chances of it going under with your money are very small.

5.) Trying A Demo Account

Always trade on a demo account before choosing a broker. A demo will let you try the platform, test the execution, customer service and news feeds which are all vital parts of your trading experience. Demo account should be free and you can try as many as you like before actually making a deposit.

I agree with all the points only thing is there priority. I guess the points should be arranged like this

1. Customer Reviews
2. Trying A Demo Account
3. Minimum Deposits
4. 24/7 Customer Service
5. Other Services Offered

To my mind the most important thing about the broker is how they execute your trading orders: speed of execution, requotes, slippage and so on.
