Forex Resources

Free Charts

TradingView - Great web-based charting. Personally I’d give the whole community aspect a miss for reasons already discussed in the book. The charts are very good though.

FreeStockCharts.com – Despite the name, this site offers forex charts. You’ll need an up to date web browser (like Google Chrome) to use it. To access the forex charts, select “Forex” as the Watchlist near the top left of the window.

NetDania – Popular free forex charting site, uses Java.

Economic Calendars

There are literally hundreds of calendars out there, and the chances are your broker will offer one. Here are a couple more examples.

Bloomberg – Recommended. A comprehensive calendar with a scoring system showing which events are most likely to move the market.

Market Watch - Another good calendar.

Sample Forex Brokers

NOTE: None of these brokers are recommendations, they are included here simply as a starting point. You should research brokers using the criteria outlined in the book.

Oanda – Good software, practice accounts available.

FXCM – Another top tier broker with all the bells and whistles, and free practice accounts.

Live News Feeds

Bloomberg TV – Finance oriented, streaming TV.

Bloomberg Radio – Less distracting than the TV, but just as up to date.

Yahoo – A good all-round news feed.

Google – Auto generated news feed.
