First of all, You Need to have to fundamentals Right!!!!
This is what the First Priority !!!!Regardless of Forex or Futures Trading.

Persoanlly, I prefer futures Trading since this is not OTC market like Forex Trading.

In forex Trading, it is very important to know, what kind of forex broker or dealer you are dealing with!!!!( Dealing desk or No dealing desk broker ( STP ECN).

If you are having dealing desk brokers and NDD (STP) , make sure you get the fundamentals right and avoid scalping or quick trades!!!

If your intentions are scalping, I prefer NDD ( ECN) …Atleast they are better than Dealing desk and NDD (STP) Brokers.

Regardless of anything, Your fundamentals should be absolutely correct !!!!!Dont make the Mistake there!!

You can make more money in Both of these Financial Instruments if you get the strategies Correct.

Good Luck.
