Why we provide data from 10 brokers within the payment-based subscription?
Imagine yourself receiving an accurate data from one reliable source. It is okay until you get the opportunity to multiply the precision of you data 10 times. So this way you may test your decisions in a 10 times more beneficial way, and get results that are 10 times more reliable accordingly.
If you are that type of professional who does not like to “put all your eggs in one basket”, then you would not definitely like to be locked in the narrow frames of only 18 currency pairs.
Why would you, if you can make your choice in between 188 symbols instead of 18 given free?
Trade on 7 major, 26 cross currency pairs and make a use of 34 exotic currency pairs. Examine the trading on 13 metals or 10 types of commodities. Moreover, gain some experience in the stock trading at 8 stocks with 20 indexes.
1-minute data in Forex trading gives you quite rough impression of how the price was formed. You get the information only about the open, high, low and close levels.
If you are keen on scalping, tick data will be the only source of the most relevant information about the price. To rebound as a successful trader the scalper need to count every tick while trading. For this reason, you certainly would want to receive the most accurate data to get a realistic overview of market conditions.
So you have entered the Forex market, learnt all the possible way to result profitably at it, calculated all risks and even tested your strategies out, but the small little thing can invalidate all your efforts. That tiny detail is the depreciation of the floating spread.
You should be aware of taking the floating spread ranges into your estimations from the very beginning. Without it, you cannot be 100 % confident about your trading strategy in the live trading
In comparison with the free historical currency charts that updates only once a month, within the paid subscription your data will be updated automatically every day.
What advantages does it give for a trader?
The Forex market is affected every minute by the various political and economic aspects from all over the world – from minor to crucial ones.
We doubt a professional trader will find a month-delayed information about changed conditions useful for his business. In the world where people throw the newspaper as soon as it was read, even a one-day delay may proceed into huge losses on the Forex market.
