Forex or Stock trading?

FTMO Trader Scouting
Choosing between Forex and Stock trading depends on one's risk tolerance, market knowledge, and trading goals. Forex offers high liquidity, 24-hour markets, and low starting capital, making it appealing to short-term traders. Stocks, on the other hand, offer greater company-specific and sector-focused investment opportunities, which might be more appealing to those with a long-term investment strategy. Your decision should be based on your financial objectives, available resources, and comfort with the respective market dynamics.

Thank you for the explanation and comparison.
 
As a novice trader who finds stock trading more appealing, I would choose stock trading. It resonates with me due to its connection with individual companies and their long-term value potential. I appreciate the stability that established companies can offer, along with the opportunity to diversify across different sectors
 
I used to trade stocks in the 90's.

Forex is better but US indices are way better imo than all of these. I am deeply in love with Nasdaq in particular.

I trade naked charts and the price action of stocks is not normally as good as other assets.

Besides, it is harder to find a reasonable service to trade stocks if I compare it to the futures markets.
