msred,
boho and stocker giving good advice. i personally prefer oanda for fairness reasons and that's my main broker. but on a couple points they really suck. point 1: they don't have custom audio alerts available so you either have to set it and forget it or watch til your eyeballs fall out, so traders get tired and make bad trades. or you can open a demo acct with somebody who DOES have audio alerts and run it while you're trading oanda. they could easily do this but they want traders to get tired and lose money. point 2: chart views aren't that great but they have a few interesting tools anyway.
if you decide to go with oanda, ALWAYS check the spread before you trade because it's adjustable. and anything you don't understand abt forex, just ask. even if nobody has correct answer we can at least offer some thoughts. welcome!!
