Interested in entering the Forex world?

Before diving in, grasp these seven key concepts. This post breaks down the fundamentals of Forex trading, offering insights into the market’s workings.

From defining Forex to tips on earning through currency trading, we’ve got you covered.

Whether you’re new to this, have been to a forex referral program, or seeking a quick refresher, read on for the essentials to kickstart your Forex journey.

Hopefully, it will help you out in the end.

1: Look for an Excellent Forex Broker 

When stepping into Forex trading, finding a reliable broker is key.

With numerous options available, it’s crucial to pick wisely. A good broker equips you with the essential platform and tools for successful currency trading, along with valuable guidance.

Look for a regulated broker with low spreads and quick execution speeds. Consider your trading style before making a choice.

2: Learn about the CPs You’ll Trade 

No matter what you are trading, it’s always important to be familiar with the currency pairs. It’s also known as the CPs and can hold the key to your success or failure in the forex market.

The most common options available here are known as the Majors. Some of these examples of it may include the following – EUR/USD and GBP/CHF.

The majors are more common and popular due to having decent price changes. However, if you want to make the most out of the market, you should also keep an eye on the minors.

Remember, each currency pair behaves differently and carries its own level of risk and volatility. Before trading a specific option, it’s essential to understand these factors. A good way to grasp the dynamics is by practicing on a demo account.

This is something you can create on almost any trading platform. So, be sure to make proper use of the same and get more information related to your potential working field.

3: Get Some Information about the Types of Orders 

When you trade Forex, you use various order types to buy or sell currencies. The most common one is a market order, where you trade at the current best price.

Another type is a limit order, letting you choose a specific price for buying or selling. Stop-loss orders are handy to minimize losses in a trade. Before making any trades, it’s crucial to grasp these order types and how they function.

4: Try to Be Aware of the Potential Risks 

Before diving into Forex trading, it’s crucial to grasp the associated risks.

The market is known for its rapid and unpredictable movements, requiring you to be ready for potential losses. Always try to use as much money as you can lose to trade in forex. If needed, I’d also suggest you use stop-loss orders to mitigate your risk of failing.

Also, keep in mind that the forex market operates 24/7, so be mindful of overnight fluctuations. Some opt to trade during specific hours to minimize exposure.

5: The Dealer will Control the Platform 

When you use electronic trading platforms, mobile apps, and dealer websites, you’re not directly linked to a live exchange. Instead, you connect to the dealer who manages the information displayed on your screen, including prices.

Some unregistered offshore dealers use well-known trading software to appear legitimate but may manipulate data to take advantage of customers. To ensure you’re observing genuine market price changes, cross-check prices with external sources.

6: Your Deposits Won’t be Protected 

Before you create an account in the forex market, don’t forget to carefully go through your a/c agreement. If you have any problem with understanding it, ask your broker beforehand.

Also, don’t forget to check the terms that you have to follow before withdrawing and depositing money. Find out the associated risks and fees regarding the same as well.

If a dealer disappears or goes bankrupt, there may be challenges in getting your money back.

Be cautious of fraudulent dealers who may try to stall withdrawals by demanding additional payments for undisclosed fees, taxes, or higher account-level status.

Remember, you shouldn’t have to pay extra to retrieve your money.

7: You Might Lose Your Margin 

In OTC forex trading, you can start and keep a position with a minimum amount called margin. The needed amount is based on how much the currency pair typically changes.

For example, with a 2 percent margin, you could start a $100,000 position with only $2,000 in your account. But be careful, because this high leverage boosts both gains and losses.

If the market moves against you, you may need to add more money to your account or end the trade. Plus, there’s a chance of extra losses beyond your first deposit.

Driving SEO Traffic: The AskGamblers Formula

The AskGamblers’ focus is on providing genuine value and a high-quality user experience, so that visitors don’t just arrive, but return. That aligns seamlessly with N1 Partners’ philosophy of not just driving volume, but building players with retention and lifetime value.

AskGamblers is a highly competitive team, and the N1 Puzzle Promo format hits the mark. For N1 Partners, this speaks directly to our goal: bringing top-tier affiliates into big campaigns where they can shine and scale. 

As participants get closer to the final stage of the N1 Puzzle Promo, the competition becomes even more intense, with the AskGamblers team confidently maintaining its position in the top 10 and actively moving towards the prize-winning places.

Beyond Traffic: What Success Looks Like

“Wouldn’t it be great to skip notorious traffic and take a helicopter ride to the next iGaming event?” said the AskGamblers team.

Such an approach shows that this is about partnership, performance, and flair — not just metrics.

Power affiliate QiH Group rebrands to Quantum to reflect ambitious diversification strategy

The tech powerhouse has a new website, name and branding that are set to take the affiliate marketing company into the next 10 years.

Quantum International Holdings, the affiliate formerly known across the tech, sports, iGaming betting industries as QiH Group has launched its official rebrand to Quantum. With a new-look website, logo and assets, the company has chosen the pared down name to reflect the strategic direction it will be taking, starting in 2026.

Speaking about the change, Quantum CEO Jamie Walters said: “I’m incredibly proud and excited to share the next chapter in our journey: the evolution of QiH into Quantum. For over a decade, QiH has been our foundation, a story of success, growth and innovation in iGaming. But the world – especially digitally – moves fast, and so do we.

“‘Quantum’ was already in our name, so we’ve simplified and streamlined, and it now represents the next version of who we are and where we’re going. A rebrand is about a lot more than a new logo, colours and identity – we’ve also evolved our mindset, ambition and of course, our strategic direction.

Walters continues: “Over the past few months, the Quantum team has worked tirelessly to get to this exciting new stage for our growth. We’re building on everything that has already made QiH Group so brilliant – our talent, creativity, and data-driven approach – and supercharging it to perform on the biggest global stage.

“Our vision is simple: to expand our affiliate marketing roots to become the world’s most-used digital comparison service, delivering simplicity and value to millions of users around the globe.”

Tom Murch, creative director at Quantum, shared: “The rebrand brief was simple: evolution. This wasn’t just about a new identity, it was about building on a decade of growth and turning momentum into acceleration. Quantum is the brave new chapter in our story, a brand, a strategy, a mindset, and a framework for high performance culture at scale and where elite talent can really thrive.”

The story so far

QiH Group was launched in London in 2014 to address a gap in the iGaming affiliate market for smart, digital-first, data-focused affiliate partnerships for iGaming operators.

The company has seen a host of accolades, such as:

  • Moving from 21st to 15th on EGR Global’s Power Affiliates list in 2025

  • Growing from five initial employees to 60 now

  • Hiring an experienced C-suite of talent, including a CFO, CMO and CTO and promoting internally for their COO

  • Building our entire tech team from outsourced to a fully in-house, tech capability, expanding the team from 0 to 14 employees this year

  • Shortlisted for eight major awards in iGaming, from Employer of the Year to Affiliate of the Year

  • Fostering years-long relationships with Tier 1 operators

“2026 and beyond are going to be incredibly exciting times for Quantum, and we’re so pleased to be bringing a new look, simplified name and a honed strategic direction and operational delivery for our clients – and of course, an environment where our talented and ambitious team can thrive,” says Walters.
