I saw the same EU/USD graphs from differen brokers by same program called metatrader, but the candles look all different???? aren't they suppose to look the same since I see the same market but only by different brokers??? why is it different?
Answer
You were probably just looking at different timeframes.
Timeframes indicate the time period a candlestick takes to fully form. If you're looking at a 15 minutes timeframe chart, you'll see 1 candlestick forming every 15 minutes. Whereas if you switch to the 1 minute timeframe you'll see 15 candlesticks per every one formed on the 15 minute chart. So, assuming you're making sure to look within the same hour(s)/time period, different timeframes of the same currency pair will always look completely different from one another.
Besides, even though the possibility exists that an extremely unregulated or scammy broker may try to pull something like that, the reality is that it's highly unlikely. Not only way too many traders would notice such discrepancies, but gathering evidence of it would be very easy. One reason is that it's common practice for traders to refer to different data feeds, but even more of an obvious deterrent is that all such past market data remains recorded on the charts.

Risk in Forex Investment?
Q. Risk in Forex Investment?
Answer
Forex is a highly volatile market and predicting its movements can be impossible at times. No one can predict entirely how the market will move? That is the main reason why it has a high speculation rate to it.
Definitely if you go buy studying the past trends and patterns of the market, you can still make out roughly about the market movements, but certainty is not possible. Fluctuations in the currency exchange prices or rates can affect your trade or deals. The market can move in favor or against you any time, resulting in possible profit or loss.
Frauds or Scams
Forex is a highly potential market for frauds and scam artists. Although the market is significantly safer and cleaner to trade now, than it was a few years ago, care should still be taken while dealing with a broker. Always check the documents before signing any contract and read the terms and conditions fully. Being vigilant is the key to safe trading. Also, always prefer to deal with professional brokers who are attached to reputed financial firms and banks. Also, registered brokers such as those listed with the Commodities Futures Trading Commission or the National Futures Association should be preferred.
Also, beware of any brokers or financial firms offering too good schemes or deals, with very low or no risk trading guarantees. The brokers claiming to offer higher returns should also be thoroughly checked before signing up with them and starting to trade.
All the above mentioned risks can be avoided by keeping into consideration that any of this can happen to you while trading. Keeping this in mind will keep you prepared about the consequences that you can face and hence, help you make wiser and informed trading decisions.
Although we know by now that Forex is a risky business, there are a few measures, which have been created to limit, if not completely stop, a traderâs financial risks.
Firstly, every investor should try and develop his/her own trading strategy. Be it technical, fundamental, or both, every trader needs to follow a strategy which logically backs the trading decisions that he is making. All the market trading should be done using the money which you can afford to lose, not affecting your home finances, in case the market decides to go against you. Also clearly mark your entry and exit points with every deal you make.
Along with the entry and exit points, a trader also needs to posses thorough knowledge about the past trends of the market. How to make graphs, how to study the financial graphs and how to read, understand and aptly interpret the indicators and chart movements correctly is very important.
There is a huge amount of information available easily these days on this 24 hour market, but what needs to be taken into consideration is the information which is relevant, to our trade.
