It depends on how much capital you have. You can start trading Forex with as little as $500, but do not expect to earn a living with that kind of account size. But it allows you to practice your skills and your strategies.
Stocks and forex are two markets that are very much different from each other. As both markets work as per the demand and supply forces of the National and the International economies, we can’t say that one is better in terms of the other; both these markets have their roles. For-profits, we can say that you can make profits quickly in the forex markets as compared to stocks, as in the forex markets, you can make profits in both bullish and bearish market conditions; which is not a case in the stock market.
