Hi, I'm am a newbie with zero knowledge about investing. I haven't read everypage in this sticky and babypips.com which I would do later. I would like to ask how should I start in forex? If I'm not mistaken you all mentioned that I have to find a broker right such as fxdd? How can I pay these broker or withdraw money from them?

If you have zero knowledge, it's better to trade a demo account until you develop your own strategies. If you plan to use FXDD, they accept payment and withrawal either by paypal or TT transfer. Current Paypal rate is between 3.04-3.15. To withdraw, just fill up a form, sign it and email back to them. Withdrawal takes 3 business days to reach local bank account. To fund your account using paypal, you need a credit card.

Ya I've crate a demo account and been messing with them since yesterday. However I would like to have more information about creating live account to prepare for the future. It seems fxdd
Minimum deposit is $1000 right? Actually I'm looking forward to start with a micro account with $100 capital. Any reliable broker econmendation? How about ounda?

[QUOTE]May be ibfx australia could be shortlisted, regulated and deposit quiet low USD250.. IMHO no matter what type account you use standard,mini or micro it all the same..it is a matter of risk management..even with micro lot one could buy up to 100 lot X 1000 unit per lot = 100,000 units.

Omg really? Minimum is $250? Actually I'm a student that's planning to earn some side income through forex. I'm not sure whether I can amass that much money for trading. Btw, Oanda accept starting capital of $1 but I don't know whether they can be trusted or not since there's a lot of bad review about them...

The problem with reviews on the net is that there are a lot of competition, and anyone can write a review.  Oanda is one of the biggest and experienced broker around.. Just dont expect much if ur starting with 250 account..Unless u have a big account its hard to earn passive income by trading.  Focus more on discipline and following a proven trading plan rather than profit or loss.. the profit will come automatically.  Thats what i learned anyways.

icic. I'm not planning to earn big. Just want to earn some money and gain experience along the way. Once I'm confident I will invest more money i guess. Maybe I will go with ounda after all.

If you register at Insta, after the registration you can see the link 'Deposit throw local bank', after you click the link you can see the list of IB in malaysia. If you not comfortable depositing your money with them, you can always use other method such as Credit Card or wire transfer. But via IB also not bad, quiet fast within 24 hours can reach your trading account already  thumbup.gif

You can try transfer small amount first since Instaforex minimum deposit is USD 1 only for all accounts including standard account.  thumbup.gif

Hmm, it seems opening account with instaforex is pretty easy. No need to fill in any resume such as income and sign agreement form? Or did I do something wrong there lol? Btw, I have to install the platform to start trading right? After I launch the platform I was promted to register a account yet again ? If I'm not mistaken this account should be a demo account right? So how do I trade with the live account? The interface is quite confusing for me after I have tried oanda java platform.

Edit: Oh ya, What is the difference between mt5 real account and normal account?

What indicator you all usually use? I managed to earn 110 pips for GBP/JPY, 100 pips for eur/aud75 pips for aud/usd and 51.7 pips for eur/jpy today by using macd, stochastic, rsi and fib retracement. Too bad I'm trading on demo though. It would be nice if I could made this achievement when trading for real.
