Much has changed since leading forex expert and educator James Dicks introduced retail investors to trading in the foreign exchange currency market. The market's daily turnover has grown considerably, and more and more traders are achieving financial success by trading currencies--many thanks to Dicks's advice. Now, in The Forex Edge, he warns you about the less-than-honest practices and elaborate schemes many brokers use to prevent prosperous traders from retaining their wealth.

This cautionary book is the result of Dicks's personal investigation into an assembly of forex brokers after a suspicious reversal of fortune forced him to close his trading account.
