Richard, Roger (and any other FOREX traders):

I've also been considering trading FOREX for the reasons presented
here.  I'd appreciate any suggestions regarding brokers -- I've spent
some time on the web searching for brokers, there seems to be a lot of
hype and scam potential here.  

Also, any suggestions for data sources?  What about the free software
and data most of these brokers offer?

Thanks,

Brad D.
