Start a Forex Business

I wanted to take the time to show you how to start a forex business. This isn't quite as difficult as people make it out to be. Starting a business is actually quite easy if you know the proper steps. The first thing you need to do is make it official by registering a sole proprietorship or LLC with your government. This is how you get legal and than you can get down to the real work of investing. I'll share a little about what I've learned setting up my a forex business and some of the obstacles I had to overcome.

When you're legal with the government, the next step is to get yourself a competent broker. I use the term competent because there are a lot of poor brokers out there and because you'll be looking on the internet, it is possible that you could run into a flat out scam. The internet is a free place for people to come and make a website, which makes it difficult to tell which broker's website is legit or an operation run out of a basement. I found the best way of finding a good broker is to hang out at forex forums and read the broker topics. You'll learn a lot about which are good, bad and scams.

To compete against big banks and other firms, you're going to need software to help watch the market for you. Automated software can be very helpful at finding profitable trades when you're not in front of the computer.
