How to start trading

To start trading on FOREX you should choose a FOREX brokerage firm, open a margin account and deposit some collateral money. Potential client exposure to losses includes more than just the margin.
The broker will set and enforce suitable trading limits for each client in light of the client's financial position, investment objectives, and comprehension of risks.
Client margin or free credit for all margin accounts must be held by the counter party in trust and apart from any other funds held for clients other than those of the applicant. If the counter party fails, the client's money may be at risk.
Choose the broker which is properly licensed in his jurisdiction.
Make sure you will receive the Daily Report of your transactions and open positions, as well as the Monthly Summary Report.
You should ask the firm with which you deal about the terms and conditions of the specific FOREX lots (contracts) which you are trading and associated obligations (e.g., the cost of rolling the open position over to the next day; the circumstances under which you may become obliged to make or take delivery of a FOREX contract; and, in respect of options, expiration dates and restrictions on the time for exercise).
