[MoveEpic]

It is better to start learning forex from the school of pipsology on babypips, through educational videos and by demo trading.

I'm getting very confused. How do I start understanding the process. Actually, what is the procedure to start with Forex.

Once I read a short book on Forex and knows a very little about Broker. Please, help me to start.

Thanks in advance.

I would watch videos first as I better learn that way when’s starting out

I would suggest to start from basic technical analysis tools like Support and Resistance, breakouts, pullbacks, trend continuation and reversals, learn common patterns and watch markets to understand in what circumstances these patterns appear and what can be correct risk reward settings for these patterns.

I better think that we can start with a demo account to see how the market works and learning how the forex trading process work through a demo account.

I see you opened this thread almost 2 years ago, unfortunately I don’t know your current status of trading! But I hope you are doing well in there! By the way, new traders need to start their trading by demo account practice! But that’s not good enough; to be a consistent player, you should learn the skill of Forex trading chart reading! Don’t use too much trading indicators, because most of them will confused you in your live trading!

I think the issue with forex is people can sometimes expect it to be an easy step by step guide on do this do that and you will be able to print money and, as most of us who have been doing this a while will know, that's not how it works.

Demo account becomes the free place to practice trading without any risk, although face big loss, it will nothing loss in feeling, because only use virtual money, sometimes demo account used by an experienced trader to backtest any trading tool or strategy.

fully agree, always start with demo account. better to trade at least 1 year just to undestand how it works, what are comissions for short and long trading.
after a year you will know do you need vps or not, what instruments you would like to trade. it's not only about forex you can find here

What are the margins/spreads/leverage/pips/lots etc.. These all things should be learned on the first hand before learning other things in my opinion.
