Forex brokers are more of a marketing machine than market makers. Forex brokers need a constant stream of new clients to keep making money since most of the new traders dont survive longer than a few months.
Forex brokers spend vast sums of money on advertising to entice new traders. If you go on Google and search any forex related keyword, you will find most of the ads are by forex brokers. Forex brokers give many incentives to you to start trading.
Forex brokers want you to trade more. They use many methods as incentives to make you do that. One of the methods is to hold a Forex Trading Contest by announcing cash prizes of $2000, $1000 and $500 for the top three.
Most of the traders get wiped out trying to win the contest. This trick is almost like a lottery. Only a few win, rest loses! But in the end its your forex broker who makes the most money.
Forex brokers are free to offer any price to their clients. Most of the brokers get price quotes from the interbank market with a 1 pip or even lower spread. To this pip spread they add 2 or 3 or even more pips as the price quote to their clients.
These 3 or 4 pips are the risk free profits that the brokers make for each round trip trade. You see why forex brokers are giving you free platforms and trading signals, only to make you start trading as soon as possible. Your broker will make more risk free money, the more you trade!
Price shading is one of the practices used by forex brokers. If the price of a particular currency is rising, the broker may shade the price quote by adding a few pips in anticipation of the rise in currency rate. You wont even know it.
One of the classic tricks used by many brokers is to trip stop losses with a single momentary blip. Brokers have all the information about stop losses placed by their clients. So, if he finds many stop losses at a certain level, there will be a momentary spike in the price feed that will trip most of the stop losses.
You cant do anything. It was a momentary spike, so small that it only tripped the stop losses.
Since, there is no central exchange to compare moment by moment prices, your broker can offer any excuse like there was sudden large order in the market or the broker feed is much faster and reflects true interbank rates.
