What are forex trading signals?
Forex trading signals* are actionable ‘buy’ and ‘sell’ suggestions for your FX CFD trades – eg ‘buy GBP/USD’. They’re triggered when certain chart patterns emerge, or key levels are met. You don’t have to follow the signals, but they could be useful in helping you to decide when to open and close your forex positions.
