Twitter can be a great way to publicize your trading, connect with other traders and it can be one of the best sources of Forex trading information…especially around news time. But it can also be hard to separate the noise from the legit information.
Here are the best Forex Twitter accounts that I find useful and/or entertaining. I hope it saves you hours of researching and gets your Twitter account started on the right foot.
To get the most up-to-date list of people I follow, take a look at my Twitter lists.
1. @FXstreetNews
FX Street is one of the best sources of Forex news and analysis. I use their economic calendar all the time and follow their tweets.
Their tweets feature content from their analysts and is an easy way to get your daily shot of Forex.
2. @50Pips
50 Pips is one of the most prolific FX traders on Twitter and very generous with the quality information that he gives out.
He does a lot for the Forex community and has also started a program to back traders with good track records. Oh yeah, and I also interviewed him here.
3. @waltervannelli
Walter lives and breathes Forex. He started in the back office of a bank and caught a lucky break when they where short of dealers.
Get his complete interview here. You will also get his secret “meditation” technique. Be sure to thank him for that later.
4. @FXflow
Boris Schlossberg is the Managing Partner of BKForex.
He is a well known analyst, day trader and EA developer. Apparently he is also a pretty damn good cook.

8. @RagheeHorner
Raghee is one of the first traders that I started following back in the day. She has a very simple trading method that might be just what you are looking for.
Even if that isn't your cup of your tea, her Twitter account has a ton of useful Forex education.
9. @4xguy
With a Twitter handle like this and over 17K followers, his account is certainly worth following.
He is a proprietary FX trader who trades using support/resistance and fibonacci.

14. @2ndSkiesForex
Chris has had a big impact on my trading. His podcast episode is also one of the most popular interviews I have done.
He has a great story, going from Yoga teacher to professional FX trader. His courses are some of the best on the market.

Kim is one of the traders on this list that I have met in real life and I interviewed her here.
On top of being a really cool person, she is very active on Twitter. She interacts with her students and tweets her trading results and analysis.
17. @fatbeetrader
This guy is one of the few Forex traders who tweets his trades in dollar amounts, not pips. You can see his trades here.
His Instagram account is always interesting and also worth following.
18. @ForexKong
I've been following this guy's blog for awhile.
Solid results, good trader. His analysis is usually spot on.
He currently lives in Mexico and his blog and Twitter feed move really fast. As his bio says: “try to keep up.”
19. @gregmcleodtradr
I featured an interview with Greg here. It is one of the best Forex interviews that I have seen and it is packed with a ton of fun stories, as well as some solid trading education.
Don't let his website fool you. It has a little Vegas-neon vibe going on, but as far as I can tell, he is the real deal and he is a great trader.

To learn what that stands for, check out his Twitter account. He tweets about industry news and current events.

Her bio on the site says: “Queen of the Big Macro Trade” and you better believe it.

Nuff said.
I've actually DM'ed with him a few times and he is a cool guy. Definitely worth following.
24. @SaraEisen
Sara is a CNBC host and the author of the book Currencies After the Crash: The Uncertain Future of the Global Paper-Based Currency System.
She has a lively account and tweets about Forex, stocks and the financial markets in general.
25. @JarrattDavis
Jarratt is a cool guy and I had the opportunity to chat with him for a bit when I interviewed him for the podcast. He was ranked as a top FX trader in the world by Barclays.
His site is worth checking out because his is one of the few educators who primarily uses fundamental analysis.
26. @tradergav
I've tried to get Gavin on the podcast, but he is very humble about his trading and graciously declined. Oh well, maybe one day…
His blog was one of the first FX blogs that I started following and it is always interesting to see what he is up to.
