How to spot a forex scam
The spot forex market traded over $6.6 trillion a day as of april 2019, including currency options and futures contracts. with this enormous amount of money floating around in an unregulated spot market that trades instantly, over the counter, with no accountability, forex scams offer unscrupulous operators the lure of earning fortunes in limited amounts of time. While many once-popular scams have ceased—thanks to serious enforcement actions by the commodity futures trading commission (CFTC) and the 1982 formation of the self-regulatory national futures association (NFA)—some old scams linger, and new ones keep popping up.
Back in the day: the point-spread scam
An old point-spread forex scam was based on computer manipulation of bid-ask spreads. The point spread between the bid and ask basically reflects the commission of a back-and-forth transaction processed through a broker. These spreads typically differ between currency pairs. The scam occurs when those point spreads differ widely among brokers.
Key takeaways
- Many scams in the forex market are no longer as pervasive due to tighter regulations, but some problems still exist.
- One shady practice is when forex brokers offer wide bid-ask spreads on certain currency pairs, making it more difficult to earn profits on trades.
- Be careful of any offshore, unregulated broker.
- Individuals and companies that market systems—like signal sellers or robot trading—sometimes sell products that are not tested and do not yield profitable results.
- If the forex broker is commingling funds or limiting customer withdrawals, it could be an indicator that something fishy is going on.
For instance, some brokers do not offer the normal two-point to three-point spread in the EUR/USD but spreads of seven pips or more. (A pip is the smallest price move that a given exchange rate makes based on market convention. Since most major currency pairs are priced to four decimal places, the smallest change is that of the last decimal point.) factor in four or more additional pips on every trade, and any potential gains resulting from a good trade can be eaten away by commissions, depending on how the forex broker structures their fees for trading.
This scam has quieted down over the last 10 years, but be careful of any offshore retail brokers that are not regulated by the CFTC, NFA, or their nation of origin. These tendencies still exist, and it’s quite easy for firms to pack up and disappear with the money when confronted with actions. Many saw a jail cell for these computer manipulations. But the majority of violators have historically been united states-based companies, not the offshore ones.
The signal-seller scam
A popular modern-day scam is the signal seller. Signal sellers are retail firms, pooled asset managers, managed account companies, or individual traders that offer a system—for a daily, weekly, or monthly fee—that claims to identify favorable times to buy or sell a currency pair based on professional recommendations that will make anyone wealthy. They tout their long experience and trading abilities, plus testimonials from people who vouch for how great a trader and friend the person is, and the vast wealth that this person has earned for them. All the unsuspecting trader has to do is hand over X amount of dollars for the privilege of trade recommendations.
Many of signal-seller scammers simply collect money from a certain number of traders and disappear. Some will recommend a good trade now and then, to allow the signal money to perpetuate. This new scam is slowly becoming a wider problem. Although there are signal sellers who are honest and perform trade functions as intended, it pays to be skeptical.
"robot" scamming in today’s market
A persistent scam, old and new, presents itself in some types of forex-developed trading systems. These scammers tout their system’s ability to generate automatic trades that, even while you sleep, earn vast wealth. Today, the new terminology is “robot” because the process is fully automated with computers. Either way, many of these systems have never been submitted for formal review or tested by an independent source.
Examination of a forex robot must include the testing of a trading system’s parameters and optimization codes. If the parameters and optimization codes are invalid, the system will generate random buy and sell signals. This will cause unsuspecting traders to do nothing more than gamble. Although tested systems exist on the market, potential forex traders should do some research before putting money into one of these approaches.
Other factors to consider
Traditionally, many trading systems have been quite costly, up to $5,000 or more. This can be viewed as a scam in itself. No trader should pay more than a few hundred dollars for a proper system today. Be especially careful of system sellers who offer programs at exorbitant prices justified by a guarantee of phenomenal results. Instead, look for legitimate sellers whose systems have been properly tested to potentially earn income.
Another persistent problem is the commingling of funds. Without a record of segregated accounts, individuals cannot track the exact performance of their investments. This makes it easier for retail firms to use an investor’s money to pay exorbitant salaries; buy houses, cars, and planes or just disappear with the funds. Section 4D of the commodity futures modernization act of 2000 addressed the issue of fund segregation; what occurs in other nations is a separate issue.
An important factor to always consider when choosing a broker or a trading system is to be skeptical of promises or promotional material that guarantees a high level of performance.
Other scams and warning signs exist when brokers won’t allow the withdrawal of monies from investor accounts, or when problems exist within the trading platform. For example, can you enter or exit a trade during volatile market action after an economic announcement? If you can’t withdraw money, warning signs should flash. If the trading platform doesn’t operate to your liquidity expectations, warning signs should flash again.
The bottom line
Conduct due diligence on the forex broker you’re considering by going to the background affiliation status information center (BASIC), created by the NFA. Many changes have driven out the crooks and the old scams and legitimized the system for the many good firms. However, always be wary of new forex scams; the temptation and allure of huge profits will always bring new and more sophisticated scammers to this market.

The best forex robots in 2021
In this article skip to section
If you are looking to become a more profitable forex trader, or if you are a beginner in need of guidance, then our review of the best forex robots will help you find the right one for you.
Forex robots use an algorithm to look for profitable trades. You can usually set them to trade automatically (within agreed parameters) or enter a trade manually.
To become an effective trader, you will need to be able to keep up with movements of the currency markets, world economics and news – as well as use historical knowledge and data to predict when the best time to enter and leave a trade will be.
Using a forex robot automates this and takes the emotional bias out of trading. Some of the best robots operate with trade settings that can be as simple or complex as required, and take total control of the trade process, creating a passive income possibility from trading 24/7.
Forex robots do not need you to have extensive knowledge and experience of trading – most are ready to use from installation and offer everything from basic trading functionality to fully programmable settings – so even the most experienced trader can benefit from the automation involved.
How to avoid a scam product
In forex trading there are no guarantees of profit – the market can be volatile and even the most sophisticated robots (or the most experienced human forex trader) can lose a lot of money.
If you are looking for a forex robot, watch out for products that claim huge profits and cannot provide real-time examples of how they are performing. User reviews are always a good bet, as are reliable review websites.
Aside from user reviews, look for real-time usage on brokers – third party verification sites like myfxbook.Com are a good way to see how they are performing.
Robots should be tested; using historical data to see how they are performing (known as backtesting) will show where they struggle to predict trends and where they perform well.
There are, of course, many scam products available online and avoiding these can seem difficult. Although every care has been taken to ensure the products we are listing are not scams, we can take no responsibility for any financial losses.
At wikijob, we are not financial advisors and any information provided throughout this article is for educational purposes only. We would always recommend that you conduct your own thorough research and due diligence before making your own personal choice.
Things to consider when choosing your forex robot
There are a few things to think about when choosing a good forex robot, other than avoiding the scam products:
- Look out for a low drawdown rate. This is a measure of decline and reduction of capital, and although high drawdowns can mean higher gains, they can also cause an account to go broke.
- The best robots are thoroughly tested, against real tick data, variable spreads and real slippage. This backtesting should be available for you to view before you purchase, and real-time data from third party sites like myfxbook can help inform you how the robot is performing today.
- Be wary of product reviews from unverified sources. The developers will only want to show positive reviews, and people who have lost money while using a particular robot will be likely to give it a bad review. Compare reviews from genuine users before investing.
- Use a demo account. Before deciding to use a robot, try it in a test environment first. This will allow you to see how it performs under test conditions – although, be aware that test conditions can not fully simulate a real trade situation. If the robot you are considering does not offer a demo or test version, it might be too risky to invest capital in it. During the demo, you can see what settings and parameters are used by the robot too, and get used to how it works.
- Make sure that you remember all robots will require some supervision. System failures, problems with internet signal and catastrophic loss can happen, so although these robots are designed to work autonomously, you will have to intervene at some point.
The most important thing to remember when choosing a product is that there are no guarantees when it comes to gains from forex and cryptocurrency trading. Products that guarantee financial gains without any form of money-back guarantee should be avoided; many of the most popular robots offer at least 60 days trading and a full refund, which makes them seem less likely to be a scam.

Final thoughts
There are hundreds of forex robots available today. They were developed using the latest technology to ensure that they can look for the most profitable trades, and are created to help both complete novices and experienced traders.
You don’t need to have prior knowledge of forex trading to use these robots – with predefined settings, most can be operated with a simple start/stop button press. For the experienced trader, the robots with adjustable settings allow you to adopt a riskier strategy by adjusting the stop loss to take profit points.
When you are looking for a forex robot to automate your trades, it is worth deciding on a strategy that you prefer before selecting your forex robot. Different robots have different trading styles – and finding the one that will gain you the most while protecting your bottom line is sometimes difficult.
Whether you prefer the security of hedge trading – buying and selling during the same trade to protect your bottom line – or you are interested in a news-based strategy, there is a robot to suit you.
Forex robots can make it simple to trade when you lack experience or time, if you invest in the right product.

Back in the day: the point-spread scam
An old point-spread forex scam was based on computer manipulation of bid-ask spreads. The point spread between the bid and ask basically reflects the commission of a back-and-forth transaction processed through a broker. These spreads typically differ between currency pairs. The scam occurs when those point spreads differ widely among brokers.
Key takeaways
- Many scams in the forex market are no longer as pervasive due to tighter regulations, but some problems still exist.
- One shady practice is when forex brokers offer wide bid-ask spreads on certain currency pairs, making it more difficult to earn profits on trades.
- Be careful of any offshore, unregulated broker.
- Individuals and companies that market systems—like signal sellers or robot trading—sometimes sell products that are not tested and do not yield profitable results.
- If the forex broker is commingling funds or limiting customer withdrawals, it could be an indicator that something fishy is going on.
For instance, some brokers do not offer the normal two-point to three-point spread in the EUR/USD but spreads of seven pips or more. (A pip is the smallest price move that a given exchange rate makes based on market convention. Since most major currency pairs are priced to four decimal places, the smallest change is that of the last decimal point.) factor in four or more additional pips on every trade, and any potential gains resulting from a good trade can be eaten away by commissions, depending on how the forex broker structures their fees for trading.
This scam has quieted down over the last 10 years, but be careful of any offshore retail brokers that are not regulated by the CFTC, NFA, or their nation of origin. These tendencies still exist, and it’s quite easy for firms to pack up and disappear with the money when confronted with actions. Many saw a jail cell for these computer manipulations. But the majority of violators have historically been united states-based companies, not the offshore ones.
The signal-seller scam
A popular modern-day scam is the signal seller. Signal sellers are retail firms, pooled asset managers, managed account companies, or individual traders that offer a system—for a daily, weekly, or monthly fee—that claims to identify favorable times to buy or sell a currency pair based on professional recommendations that will make anyone wealthy. They tout their long experience and trading abilities, plus testimonials from people who vouch for how great a trader and friend the person is, and the vast wealth that this person has earned for them. All the unsuspecting trader has to do is hand over X amount of dollars for the privilege of trade recommendations.
Many of signal-seller scammers simply collect money from a certain number of traders and disappear. Some will recommend a good trade now and then, to allow the signal money to perpetuate. This new scam is slowly becoming a wider problem. Although there are signal sellers who are honest and perform trade functions as intended, it pays to be skeptical.
"robot" scamming in today’s market
A persistent scam, old and new, presents itself in some types of forex-developed trading systems. These scammers tout their system’s ability to generate automatic trades that, even while you sleep, earn vast wealth. Today, the new terminology is “robot” because the process is fully automated with computers. Either way, many of these systems have never been submitted for formal review or tested by an independent source.
Examination of a forex robot must include the testing of a trading system’s parameters and optimization codes. If the parameters and optimization codes are invalid, the system will generate random buy and sell signals. This will cause unsuspecting traders to do nothing more than gamble. Although tested systems exist on the market, potential forex traders should do some research before putting money into one of these approaches.
Other factors to consider
Traditionally, many trading systems have been quite costly, up to $5,000 or more. This can be viewed as a scam in itself. No trader should pay more than a few hundred dollars for a proper system today. Be especially careful of system sellers who offer programs at exorbitant prices justified by a guarantee of phenomenal results. Instead, look for legitimate sellers whose systems have been properly tested to potentially earn income.
Another persistent problem is the commingling of funds. Without a record of segregated accounts, individuals cannot track the exact performance of their investments. This makes it easier for retail firms to use an investor’s money to pay exorbitant salaries; buy houses, cars, and planes or just disappear with the funds. Section 4D of the commodity futures modernization act of 2000 addressed the issue of fund segregation; what occurs in other nations is a separate issue.
An important factor to always consider when choosing a broker or a trading system is to be skeptical of promises or promotional material that guarantees a high level of performance.
Other scams and warning signs exist when brokers won’t allow the withdrawal of monies from investor accounts, or when problems exist within the trading platform. For example, can you enter or exit a trade during volatile market action after an economic announcement? If you can’t withdraw money, warning signs should flash. If the trading platform doesn’t operate to your liquidity expectations, warning signs should flash again.
The bottom line
Conduct due diligence on the forex broker you’re considering by going to the background affiliation status information center (BASIC), created by the NFA. Many changes have driven out the crooks and the old scams and legitimized the system for the many good firms. However, always be wary of new forex scams; the temptation and allure of huge profits will always bring new and more sophisticated scammers to this market.

Live forex brokers in the united kingdom
Trading forex ‘live’
Live forex brokers are service providers that act as intermediaries between retail traders and the forex markets.
They make it possible for traders to access the markets. A live forex broker features real-time charts and extremely fast electronic execution. This way, it lets traders react to price movements in real-time.
Most forex brokers generate revenue through the bid/ask spread. They may also charge commissions. Some brokers have adopted unique, creative ways to “turn a buck” off their services.
Accounts
To access the services of a forex broker, you need to create a forex account. Brokers offer several types of trading accounts .
Of these, the demo account is the quickest and simplest to open. You may only need to provide an email address to get such an account going.
Real money accounts, on the other hand, require a lot of paperwork. Some brokers will want to know your financial situation, your revenue sources and other such sensitive bits of personal information.
You have to make sure that you open the right kind of forex trading account with the right broker.
Real-time forex trading is electronic. Given the need for real-time price information and near-instant execution, it cannot be of any other kind.
In addition to being an online operation, your real-time forex broker cannot be a market maker. Some brokerages engage in market making. There is not much point in trying to trade live with such a broker.
Live traders need real-time charts. What you need to know in this respect is that different brokers have different liquidity providers.
Depending on these liquidity providers, there may be slight differences in the real-time prices the brokers use.
Platforms
Forex trading platforms, such as metaquotes’ popular MT4, let traders place trades. Most such platforms offer live charts.
Some of these platforms even allow traders to open positions directly from the chart. In regards to the platform, you have to understand that it is a mere interface.
It does not define the offer of your broker. It does, however, define how you can interact with the markets.
What can you expect from your live forex platform?
All forex trading platforms feature charting these days. You need live charting.
Make sure your broker does indeed feature live prices. Understand that the pricing of your broker depends on its liquidity providers to some degree.

Forex trading platforms support several order types. As a live trader, you need to understand how limit orders and stop orders work, among others.
A proper trading platform comes with a reporting function. You will need to use this for tax purposes. Some platforms report transactions erratically, while others produce high-quality reports.
Demo accounts
Demo accounts let you trade for virtual money.
Not all brokers support such accounts, but the majority of them do.
Most forex trading platforms are free to download and use. There are some exceptions in this regard.
As an online forex trader, however, you will probably only deal with free platforms.
As a live trader, you have to resort to a demo account first. You need to acquaint yourself with the ins and outs of the platform.
You should place around 50 demo trades before you move on to real money trading. Experienced traders should go through these demo paces as well.
Only skilled traders should trade in real-time. How do you know whether you possess the minimum required skills? Ask yourself these questions:
- Do you know what a limit order, a stop order and a market order are?
- Can you set a limit and a stop when you enter a trade?
- What is the typical spread of your broker?
- Is the spread on your traded asset fixed or variable?
- What lot sizes can you trade?
- If your connection goes down, can you give the dealing desk a direct call?
Live forex trading apps
Most forex trading apps running on android and ios mobile devices are “mini” versions of the full trading platforms.
As such, they offer the same degree of functionality and the same features, reformatted for smaller screens.
You can download such live forex trading apps from google play or the app store. Forex trading apps are usually free to download and use.
Make sure you understand exactly what your forex trading app offers you. Take it on a demo spin, as most mobile trading platforms support demo accounts.
Ask yourself and answer all the mentioned questions before you begin real money trading through a live forex trading app.
Forex live trading room reviews

Sophisticated live trading rooms allow their professional users to monetize their seminars and trading sessions.
Educators can share charts, embed various widgets, stream live video, perform analysis and complete trades in a live setting.
Some traders have found much value in such live trading setups. It is fair to say, however, that some of these trading rooms are little more than scams or half-hearted efforts.
Before joining such a trading room, read some reviews on it. Users are usually not shy to share their experiences, whether profitable or not.
What else should you consider?
- The focus of the trading room. There are chat rooms focused on swing trading, on scalping, on forex only, on commodities, etc.
The reputation of the live trading room. As mentioned, users are generally keen to share their experiences. - The monetization model. With some trading rooms, you only have to pay for sessions that turn a profit. That sounds like an advantageous monetization model.

Trading rooms use videos to disseminate knowledge as well.An interesting take on using videos for trading is to record yourself.

How to get started with forex the real way
On the off chance that you at any point needed to exchange forex, you may have perused up and increased a comprehension on how it functions yet not how to begin. Perusing books can give you the information on what forex exchanging is yet not really the stuff to turn into a forex dealer.
Here you will discover five supportive focuses to consider and get comfortable with to kick you off exchanging forex.
- Understanding forex trading
You clearly should comprehend what forex exchanging is and how it functions. At all, you need a fundamental comprehension of what is happening, when to purchase and sell, what the terms mean, and the different exchanging techniques accessible to you. You can begin exchanging forex in less than a day, yet without an arrangement or information on how it functions, you set yourself up to fizzle.
There are various techniques to learning forex exchanging; you can understand books, take online courses, or join an enrollment network of specialists to get continuous answers. However, focus on the data you devour:
· be careful about sources that make pay claims or state you can stop your normal everyday employment and never need to work again because of the marvels of forex. You don’t need a trick training. Trends don’t keep going as long as genuine readiness and technique.
· book sources ought to be perceived writers and specialists in the field of forex. There are a lot of solid sources; do your exploration to vet which writers merit perusing.
Online courses offer another road for learning forex exchanging, however nothing beats understanding and the capacity to talk with similarly invested dealers who began simply like you. You can’t pose inquiries or toss thoughts at books and online courses seeking after answers or criticism like you can in a worldwide network of forex merchants.
Imagine a scenario in which there was a spot that can help quicken your learning with its set-up of network upheld questions and gathering posts, day by day live streams where you can get constant answers, procedures, pointers and exchange signals. We have a worldwide network of forex brokers and different students who have begun exchanging that can offer you knowledge and responses to numerous forex addresses you may have. Genuine individuals offering hands-on guidance can be useful when you need to discover answers immediately. We additionally have a trade academy where you can get to several instructive forex recordings whenever you need.
- Technique development
You ought to never begin another monetary experience without an arrangement. When you comprehend the nuts and bolts and wordings of forex, you should make a system. A forex exchanging technique traces what your expectations are with your exchanges: when you will purchase or sell and trigger focuses, for instance.
At the point when you initially enter forex exchanging, you should utilize the K.I.S.S. (keep it simple stupid) framework; don’t get excessively unpredictable immediately. Experience is the best instruction; make some exchange added to your repertoire first. Your system ought to be essential in any case and can form into something more mind boggling after some time.
There is no ideal procedure; when you build up yours, you should think about this reality and anticipate a few misfortunes yet be ready for them. With experience you will have the option to assess your methodology and recognize what has worked in the past so as to change it.
The best practice you can learn is backtesting your methodology. Backtesting won’t just assist you with affirming your procedure merits actualizing, yet it can likewise give you the certainty to begin with live cash sooner.
Demo accounts you can do backtests on, yet to get the best use, you should not waiver from your technique traces. A demo account is an extraordinary spot to begin since you don’t need to chance your own cash immediately. The drawback is individuals lose premium excessively fast on the grounds that the apparent return isn’t accessible; however some portion of learning is hands-on preparing. You have to address thoughtfulness regarding cost developments and how they play against your system. When you have demonstrated to yourself that your technique is practical, you can change into genuine exchanging.
At the point when you begin exchanging forex seriously, you need somebody to execute the exchanges for your sake, or what is known as a representative. There are incalculable representatives to look over so you will need to do your examination and affirm some data before beginning with the main outcome that shows up in your web crawler results. A few interesting points:
· extreme leverage: avoid dealers who will offer huge rates of benefit returns for your venture; they realize the higher edge possibilities are bound to attract you, yet they never disclose to you how improbable it is you will ever observe those edges. The representative gets his compensation, yet you wind up losing cash.
· commissions: always realize what commission your potential representative expects; some will charge extraordinary sums.
· spread: an average intermediary will offer a tight spread; this implies the distinction between the purchasing and selling cost is low which makes the expense to exchange low.
· location: depending on the spot, confirm the agent you like is controlled by a specific ward.
· customer service: your specialist will be dealing with a lot of your cash and making exchanges for your sake; it is significant that they are relatable, accessible, and solid. A decent dealer will give a rapid store and withdrawal when you need it.
Influence is cash you obtain from your agent to build your exchanging position. As an amateur, you should begin with a low influence so you get the experience of a live exchange with wins and misfortunes without thinking about what you made by and large. It causes you consider making the plunge and evade superfluously high dangers.
Your work and experience are an exercise in futility on the off chance that you don’t have a composed arrangement to follow, reproduce, and modify dependent on your outcomes. Your arrangement ought to incorporate elite of every one of your exchanges. You can keep a physical arrangement or a computerized one, however it ought to be convenient.
One test I like to urge apprentices to attempt is the 25 exchange challenge. You take your straightforward procedure and apply it to 25 exchanges without vacillating from your arrangement. Your procedure ought to be one that you believe is all set live; it ought to incorporate when you are going to purchase and offer, when to take benefit, when you are halted, and how to oversee hazard. Win or lose, you ought to execute your technique similar route for 25 exchanges. Many come up short since they go amiss from their arrangement.
One significant reality to recall is we as a whole make a losing exchange, yet is anything but an exercise in futility or cash; the information you gain merits the misfortune on the off chance that you keep your misfortune prospects low. You ought to have an understanding concerning why it lost so you can alter for it in later exchanges. In the event that you quit rashly or disregard your misfortunes’ learning openings, you could lose more than you needed or even ought to have.
On the off chance that you battle with beginning, make each point a stride at once; don’t move to the following point until you have manufactured an establishment from the past advance. These are sound techniques that will assist you with beginning with forex exchanging.
For help with your forex venture, look at forexsignals today; our demo accounts, exchanging techniques, live meeting calls, worldwide visit, and more can assist you with experiencing every one of the means sketched out above with a superior traction.
