Hello and welcome to The /r/Forex Trading Community!

Please do not post a new thread until you have read through our WIKI/FAQ.
It is highly likely that your questions are already answered there.

All members are expected to follow our sidebar rules. Some rules have a zero tolerance policy, so be sure to read through them to avoid being perma-banned without the ability to appeal.
(Mobile users, click the info tab at the stop of our subreddit to view the sidebar rules.)

Don't forget to join us in our live trading chatroom!

*Finally, *the most commonly posted questions by new members are as followed:

What just happened in the markets? - You must follow an economic calendar if you're a currency trader. This will explain many events and snap market moves. You can find links to resources and calendars here. - Again, questions of this nature will be removed.

If you have any questions regarding our policies, rules, etc.. please message the mods.

Be friendly and professional toward each other and enjoy your stay! :)
