When discussing brokers I always look in the long term. Initially promotions may seem attractive, but they are often immaterial when considering the more important factors like:

1) Reputation - plays a significant role in determining the reliability and trustworthiness of a broker.

2) Regulation - vital to ensure that your funds are protected and that you're trading with a legitimate broker.

3) Platforms & Tools - a reliable and user-friendly platform can make a significant difference in your trading experience - assess this with a demo account.

4) Account Types & Deposit Requirements - Different brokers offer different types of accounts tailored to meet the needs of various traders. Some brokers offer standard accounts with a moderate minimum deposit requirement, while others provide mini or micro accounts for those who want to start with a smaller investment.

5) Customer Support - Forex trading can be complex, especially for beginners, so having reliable customer support is essential.

6) Education - Look for brokers who offer comprehensive tutorials, webinars, video courses, and even one-on-one coaching sessions. These educational materials are valuable tools that can help you understand market trends, develop effective strategies, and improve your overall trading performance.
