    I would go for the STP broker, because order execution is not a trouble anymore while you cooperate with such a company. ECN brokers usually don't have spreads, and they have commissions for trading, whether per lot one-sided or round-turn ones. I am not the adherent of commissions and prefer...

    Why bitcoin is surging again

    I ain't even surprised that BlackRock is embroiled in BTC surges. The company has been an object of conspiracy theories for kinda long time. Today BTC shows some interesting things, but I don't think it may continue rising high. There must be a pullback soon. But if guys will continue pushing...

    Forex is a good platform

    To begin with, forex is not a platform, it is just a market and I have no idea how it is possible to say whether this or that market is good or bad.
