About this episode
Forex Broker Secrets & Tricks You Didn't Know About

In episode 153 of the Desire To Trade Podcast, I am joined once again by Trent Hoerr, the Head of Sales at Forest Park FX. You can watch Part 1 of his video interview (episode 151) here that was aired two weeks ago.

In this episode, I bring back Trent where he discusses some things Forex brokers do that you weren't aware of. Trent shares more on how Forex brokers work and operate to make it possible for you to trade. This will be useful since all aspiring profitable traders should understand the way their broker functions.

This is important if you have a problem with your broker or if you're not sure how they work. Knowing this can not only save you cost and ensure that you don’t get in a place where you're stuck and your broker doesn’t support you. Plus, you’ll learn tactics brokers use.
