You are absolutely correct to say that Prop FX trading is becoming popular and itâs about to explode.
Let me break down the differences between stock trading and FX trading
Bear in mind we have been trading stocks ever since the good old days of the 90âs until it all disappeared not too long ago (FEW years ago!!!)
Majority of stock traders do not make money any more and have stopped making money couple of years back.
Iâll give you a few major differences between the two markets
1 Well the number one difference is there is no Money Made Day Trading Socks.
2. Stocks: Lotâs of commissions paid by the trader
FX â No commissions whatever you make is the real number
3. Stocks: Market opens 6.5 Hours 5 Days a week
FX â Open 24 Hours Day 6 Days a week
Convenience of picking hours that fit you.
4. Stock: Gap Ups, Gap Downs, Halting Stocks and getting out with bigger losses then
Intended , Stops are not a guaranteed way of covering positions , if it goes lower then
Your stop thatâs where you are getting out. Specialist manipulation of socks.
FX â GARANTEED STOPS, No Gap Ups, No Gap Downs, No Halting
Pure and Simple
Basically Trading FX Market is based on Fundamentals as well as Technical Analysis
You have reasons for placing trades, rarely are you putting on a trade without having
some solid reason backing it.
Moves are big and very profitable compared to moves in stocks.
Overall FOREX is a very pleasant market to trade if you do it professionally and with
discipline
