If I am profiting so much from my broker, how do they gain their profit from? From the other user like me that loss? For example Meta Trader, any of the graph is actually real based on current market situation? I am experiencing how much I can earn/profit from marketing and trading forex but I would gladly see the other side of it. Any proof that broker goes bankrupt and all the investors money evaporate? Any other information would be helpful.
