Does Your Forex Broker Immediately Offset Positions With Their Clearing House or Do They Actively Take Positions on The Other Side of Their Clients' T

Remember even if the forex broker review passes the transaction on to a clearing house or clearing broker, your forex broker review is your only counter party. You trade EUR/USD. You buy, broker sells. You win, broker loses. You lose, broker wins. We have shown you in the leverage in forex example that it is a good business model for the forex broker review to take the opposite side of a trade of a highly leveraged speculator and that based on statistics those highly leveraged speculators generally lose.

Find a broker where you can trade with low leverage, definitely lower than 300:1 or the ridiculous ratios like 500:1. Those brokers offering high leverage have a business model established primarily for transferring wealth from their clients accounts into theirs and are not looking after YOUR interest. Remember also that there is a big difference between the minimum margin required and leverage. If you don't understand these concepts you are at risk. Nothing a broker offers in terms of technology, charts, news, training, narrow spreads, interest on unused margin or any of the many tricks the marketing wizards play will save you from the peril of too highly geared trading.

Dealing desk brokers (market makers) also do not allow for scalping in forex trading. (See our Forex Scalping Strategy page for an explanation of scalping and examples of forex scalping systems and methods).

Lastly enquire whether the forex broker review is a small independent entrepreneurial firm or is it part of a larger financial group? If the firm is part of a large financial group it is possible that many of the risks associated with a smaller firm do not come into play. It is also possible for your broker in such case to indeed offset all trades with "mother ship", thereby limiting the riks of "running stops", which may sometimes be to your disadvantage.
