FX hedging?

Discussion in 'Forex' started by robthequant, Nov 4, 2019.

  1. I noticed most FX accounts have a hedging feature. Meaning if I execute limit buy order and limit sell order I end up with 2 open positions.
    To me, that doesn't make sense. I'd like to scale in and out of a position with limit orders without hedging, just like in stocks.
    Are there any FX brokers/accounts that don't use hedging? Can I turn this feature off somehow?

    So any forex broker operating under U.S. regulations will not allow hedging. Such as from https://www.100forexbrokers.com/broker-search for Regulation NFA.
