How do I open a forex account?

Simply choose a Forex Broker (of which there are many) preferably in the same region that you operate and in the same currency. Each region may have specific laws about what you can and cannot trade. Sign up with the forex broker of your choice and follow their instructions. At this point you will be able to download their trading platform.
You can find a list of forex brokers we use by reading our Forex Brokers Guide.
