Title: Trading forex and stock market, what is different?
Post by: icecube45 on September 20, 2016, 12:34:57 PM
Can you explain the differences between them? I was still confused whether they are the same or different. Please explain more specific. And which one is more profitable do you think?

I think the difference between forex trading and stock market is the trading hours.  Stock markets operates only in 8 hours while forex  operates 24 hours i n 3 shifts.  Forex is not geographically tied down unlike stock market.  there is more financial friction in stock market, becaue you cannot trade without middleman in stock market. Unlike forex where user can buy and sell directly by spot trading because forex market is not centralized.

Yes indeed if we use the stock market we have to use an intermediary in order to trade there. But still finished my question, which is more profitable between forex trading with the stock market?

I have never tried forex (but trading in crypto currencies which is similar to forex) and I have also trading in stocks and I found that trading in crypto currencies has good profit making potential for short term period and for long term stock trading is good. I am going to try forex trading soon and will share my experience.
Fortunately 1broker provides service to trade in forex as well as reputed stocks, commodities with bitcoin so it made easy for us. Please research your own if you are going to try it.

Forex market is usually highly volatile as the prices are fluctuating ups and downs during high sensitive news hours and this news hours almost everyday happens whereas bitcoin prices are rarely shows big fluctuations. In my opinion, Forex trading is highly risky one, bitcoin trading is always profitable one if we are ready to hold for long term.
