Forex market provides a lot of facilities for traders. Some of them are as follows:

COMMISSION FREE TRANSACTIONS:  Forex brokers do not charge any commission on the transactions they deal in unlike the Stock markets unless there are some brokers on the forex market who charge it. But the brokers get paid on the forex market through the spreads and if proper procedure of trading is followed then these spreads can evolve with the help of the brokers. At last it is up to the trader to select the type of broker he needs.

INSTANT EXECUTION OF ORDERS ON THE MARKET: On the forex trading platform once you select the price that you want then that price can be yours with just the click of the mouse, it is that fast. There is absolutely no difference in the price you place the order and the price at the total execution of the order unlike the stock market where there are different prices involved. If you are trading in the stock market you will have to many times depend on the market factors to fetch you the right price all this takes place at the execution time while there is no execution time in the forex market which in itself can be a huge advantage to the trader.

BUY AND SELL WITHOUT KEEPING IN MIND THE DIRECTION:  You may have many times wanted to short the shares but you cannot do it because on stock market the only way to do that is through SRD. But as you may have already guessed all the shares on the stock market are not eligible for SRD while some of the actions can be impossible to shorter down. With forex trading there is no such hassle. Whatever currency you want, any type of view you have can be fulfilled and possibly dealt with a single click of the mouse. It is not the market that will dictate the terms of trading but it is you who will chart out the strategies and trading ideas. In fact in forex market if you trade with parity you can sell one currency and buy another.

NO INTERMEDIARY IN BETWEEN: There is direct connection between you and the market maker when you are dealing on the forex market there is absolutely no one in middle. Due to this advantage there is no time or money lost by the trader as happens in stock market where the intermediaries eat up half of your time and money. All the unwanted procedures and processes which delay the execution time of your order are totally exited from the forex market which allows your order to get through at a smooth pace.
