Forex Vs Stocks

There are approximately 4,500 stocks listed on New York stock exchange and another 3,500 are listed in NASDQ . But in Forex market although there are lot of currency pairs involves we are not considering much about all. We consider mainly about 4 currency pairs and it is easier to keep eyes on four currency pairs than keeping attention on thousands of stocks.

No Middlemen

Centralized exchanges provide many advantage to the trader. However one of the problems with any centralized exchange is the involvement of middle men
