You should act like a manager when you are evaluating a candidate. It is vital that you make the correct inquiries as this broker will decide on a major decision for your financial future. It is important to carefully consider this choice. Before choosing the final two, I would question at least five potential website brokers (increasingly as if they were grilling)
There are many factors to take into consideration when choosing a Forex broker.
Trust
Enjoy the Experience
Referrals by past clients
Success levels
The amount of advice that will be given
Convenience
Margin offered
Fasten your seatbelts
It is obvious that the majority of what has been said above is important. It is important to trust the agent you are working with in any financial transaction. The experience of the broker is what builds trust. There are a few new brokers who have proven themselves, but most people would rather deal with someone experienced. Most new brokers will join a company where they can be trained and gain experience.
Referrals from previous customers are very important. If your broker helped someone achieve success in the past, and they are eager to speak up for you that is a significant measure. By talking to past clients and gauging how successful they were with your broker, you can determine the degree of success that broker has achieved. Then, determine the level of advice your broker will provide. It is important to know that you will not always follow another person’s advice. However, it is good to be able to learn from a broker who has experience. In the age of the internet, this element is less relevant. The location of your broker and you has become less important with faxing and messaging.
Margin offered by the bank is important. The margin is used to increase your money. Agents who offer a margin of 50:1 are more profitable than agents offering a 20:1 margin. Speed is the most obvious factor. Are you a quick broker? Is he quick to return phone calls or messages? If this is true, you might be able to work together.
