- How and where to set up a hedge fund?
- Making money on forex is impossible
- what the traders give in retribution to the market?
- Yes, fresh Forum activity decreases when FX volatility decreases.
- Yes, organic (non-system-generated) Forum activity decreases when FX volatility decreases.
Maybe on some other forums, but not on this one. live updates are what cause more forum activity here.
Meaning when broker-dealers push out MT5 updates?
specificly bugged updates yeah.
like the one in February, was a beta, but the brokers pushed it to the masses, probably because the server got the same update week or so beforehand. there was 2 long threads on this forum and many other short threads.

Just a heads up regarding low FX volatility...
I was watching free Bloomberg Live on 05/22/2026, and I read a news ticker therein stating that institutional traders have switched from trading traditional spot FX to trading electronic swap contracts and carry trading. That certainly explains the presently flatlining FX markets... and possibly, the recent overnight gaps.
I generally keep Bloomberg Live on "in the background" during the trading week:
- Free trading apps
- Over 8,000 signals for copying
- Economic news for exploring financial markets
