If you just want to have a look at what a currency has been doing but you don’t necessarily want to start trading Forex Daily FX offers free Forex charts.

Simply choose a chart and wait for the application to load. You can then choose from a variety of chart types, currencies and periods and add on basic studies if you like.

These charts are great for a quick look at a currency but are not ideal for those serious about Forex trading due to the limited data available and limited tools as compared to a desktop application like MetaTrader 4.

If you would like to be able to manipulate the charts yourself or you are looking for a real time foreign currency exchange rate the cheapest option is to open a free currency demo trading account. Most Forex brokers offer a free demo account with real time data and a certain amount of historical data. My favorite Forex software is Meta Trader 4 and best of all it’s free. Here are some of the advantages I’ve found:

- Meta Trader 4 is very popular, this means it is offered by a huge range of Forex brokers.
- There is a huge range of custom indicators and expert advisor’s available.
- Meta Trader 4 contains a very comprehensive list of built in technical indicators.
- Unlike E-signal each time you load a chart in Meta Trader 4 new data is added with no historical data taken away.
- Easy to use and with so many people using it help should not be hard to find.

Good luck with your search for free Forex charts, fortunately with so many Forex brokers offering currency demo trading accounts you should find what you need.
