Features to expect from your forex broker

TMGM offers specific features that can help both new and experienced traders succeed in the market.

Tight and Transparent Spreads

The bid/ask spread is the difference between the buying and selling prices of a forex pair. The broker or their market maker keeps this difference as a fee for facilitating the trade. The most efficient brokers have tight spreads, meaning there isn't much difference between the buying and selling prices.

Liquidity

Liquidity is the amount of trading activity in the market. It is vital because you want your orders to get executed quickly so that you can open and close positions without delay. We have multiple liquidity providers who can execute your trade swiftly before prices change.

Execution Speed

Slippage is when the price changes between the time you place an order and the time it gets filled. With fast execution speeds, we can help you avoid this problem by executing your trade in a fraction of a second.

Customer Support

Forex markets are available worldwide. Therefore, it is essential to have access to customer support 24/7. If you are engaged in trading, the last thing you want is a forex broker who takes hours to respond to an email.

Frequently Ask Question

The first step to getting started in forex trading is to find a reputable broker like TMGM. You should take steps to learn how to assess the market and manage trades before risking real money. You can do this by opening a demo account before depositing real money and opening a real CFD position

When you start trading, it is a good idea to limit your use of leverage until you are confident in your strategies and able to properly employ risk management tools.

Because of leverage, you do not need a lot of capital to trade currency CFDs. For TMGM, the minimum is $100. You may need to meet margin requirements if you wish to use leverage, but as long as you meet the minimum deposit requirement, you can start your trading career.

Prices can be affected by the economic situation in both countries in a currency pair. International conflicts, trade deals, tax law changes, and other factors can also affect markets, as can government or central bank policies and interest rate changes.

Forex trading involves currencies, while the stock market is for trading shares issued by companies and funds that contain multiple stocks. Currency markets are global, while stocks are usually limited to their home country. However, the most popular brokers offer stocks and currency CFDs.

Many countries consider forex trading a legitimate way to earn an income. As such, any profits you make from spot or CFD markets are subject to income taxes. Calculate your profits and losses for the year. If you had a profitable year (if the difference between your profits and losses is greater than $0), you will pay taxes on your total annual profits.

Equity in forex trading is the amount of capital you have in your account. If you are not engaged in any trading, then your equity is the same as the balance in your account.

The concept is slightly more complicated if you have open positions. In these cases, the equity is the balance plus the profit or minus the loss of your current trades. Therefore, your equity can change minute by minute.

Free margin is the amount of money that you have available in your account for trading at a given moment. Think of it as the total amount you can withdraw from your account. Brokers have a margin requirement, which is the amount of capital you must contribute to a leveraged trade.

If you use leverage with a 1:10 margin requirement and have an open position worth $10,000, you must keep $1,000 in your account. If you have $5,000 in your account, you have $4,000 in free margin. If you close the $10,000 position, the $1,000 will become part of the free margin total.

The forex market is the busiest financial market in the world. Approximately $5 trillion change hands every day. Depending on world events, market news, and other factors, the total can be slightly higher or lower.

The most traded pairs on the market include EUR/USD, USD/JPY, GBP/USD, and AUD/USD.

Contracts for difference (CFDs) track spot forex pairs. However, CFDs do not require purchasing and holding the currency. This trait makes CFDs more convenient than spot trading for retail traders.

A buy limit is a set price at which a trader wants to execute a trade. The trader sets a buy limit order and waits for the market to reach that price. If it does, the position will open automatically.
