Trader Lab, useful guides for new and returning traders

Short explainers for how markets work, sessions, sizing, leverage, orders and risk, so you can read a platform without guessing. This is education, not investment advice. CFDs are high risk.

75%+ of retail investor accounts lose money trading CFDs.

What you will find here

Guides cover forex market hours and session overlaps, how pips and lots work, leverage and margin vocabulary, how to read an economic calendar, order types, chart basics, and risk habits. Each page links to related FxPro guides on this site when you want product detail.

How to use Trader Lab

Start with market hours if you trade around your local day, then pips and lots before you size a live trade. Read risk management before raising leverage. Product facts (accounts, deposits, licences) live on the main review and deposit guides, not here.

Risk reminder

CFDs are complex and leveraged. The majority of retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs. Never risk money you cannot afford to lose. Nothing on these pages is a trading signal or a promise of profit.

FAQ

Is Trader Lab affiliated with FxPro’s official school?

No. This is an independent Partner guide’s education section. Platform and account facts should be checked on FxPro’s own site and in your client agreement.

Will these pages tell me what to buy?

No. They explain mechanics and vocabulary. Decisions about instruments, size and timing are yours alone.
