A. Everyone on the ForexLive team is a former bank trader. We’ve all maintained contact with friends and former co-workers in the markets and trade information back and forth with them.

While we have access to Reuters and Bloomberg, we never report market flows based on what is being reported by wire services. If anything, they are reading us and knicking our stuff.

We do use Reuters and Bloomberg for news, market data and analytics, the same way we did when we were traders.
