Volume in MT4

[bisewski]

Hi all.

I have a problem to understanding how the volume in forex market function. 

When in mt4 the volume is like 925 I think that happens 925 traders in 15 minutes. 

But this volume is only in my specific broker or it is representation all traders with all brokers? 

soory my english and my simple question.

Thanks.

There is no central clearing entity in Forex. That's why you only get tick counts (volume,) from your broker (only.)

thanks sir..

I only see tick from only my broker but I trade with all traders in all brokers correctly?

When I send one order to buy one pair its is disponible in the world traders not only for traders in my broker, right?

Thanks

my question is because I had a MBT account...MBT change to TradeKing and now change to Ally. In less then one year...So I am afraid with the destiny with this company...I dont know Ally. 

Searching I descovery that the Forex.com is the top in volume in forex...So I think that it can be a good option...

Otherwise it is forwarding the request to a market maker who takes the other side of your trade. Other traders are irrelevant.
