How do I change the timezone on MT5?
Replied 1 month ago -
The time on MetaTrader is a function of the brokers server location. It may not be possible to do anything about it. Alternatively, you can ask your broker to let you open another trading account that will be hosted on a different server whose time aligns to your local time.

how to know when to exit a trade?

Please look at this image and if you were shorting the market, you would see that when orice closed above the 14 SMA it kept going up so exiting would have saved you losses.

what does spread mean when discussing forex?
Replied 1 month ago -
Spread is your broker increasing the exchange rate of a currency pair you want to trade to accomodate his fees.
Most brokers charge a variable spread meaning it's value can change at any time without your consent. However, there are a few brokers who charge fixed spreads which remain the same all the time.

does the spread affect where i can set my stop loss?
Replied 1 month ago -
When spread is high, the distance between bid and ask price becomes wider. If you took a short position like in the image i attched, then watch the ask price line because once it reaches your stop loss you will be kicked out of the market. Also if you are long, always watch the bid price line as you will be kicked out of the market when it reaches your stop loss.

If tthe weakening of the euro is caused by inflation, the ECB may have to hike rates thus making it hard for EU companies to access loans for expansion so they may declare less profits and the stock price will fall
