• A Reuters report indicated that the ECB will hike on Thursday on higher-than-expected inflation forecasts.
On Wednesday, the EUR/GBP closed above 0.8600, and the EUR gained ground over the GBP as investors are preparing an announcement of a 25 basis point (bps) hike by the European Central Bank (ECB) on Thursday.
In line with that, Reuters reported that the European Central Bank (ECB) foresees eurozone inflation remaining above 3% next year, exceeding the previous 2% projections, which would justify a tenth consecutive interest rate hike at its upcoming meeting on Thursday. In the meantime, market expectations are divided between the bank maintaining current rates and a 25 basis point increase due to concerns about high inflation and looming recession fears.
Despite this projection strengthening the case for a hike, analysts still believe that the decision will be a close call.

Have you experienced issues with Pepperstone deposit & withdrawal processing? From your experience, do you feel that the Australia-based forex broker causes losses to its clients? Did the brokerage entity freeze your account and give you a margin call? All these trading allegations have been rampant on broker review platforms such as WikiFX. This Pepperstone review article takes a close look at the user complaints, especially in 2026. Additionally, we have given an overview of the regulatory framework under which the brokerage entity operates.

Some broker comparisons end with a confident "go with this one." This is not one of them — and that honesty is exactly what makes it worth reading. Wundersys and tradgrip are two young, offshore-registered brokers that keep popping up in front of beginner traders, often through aggressive online marketing. Both promise the usual buffet: tight spreads, generous leverage, multiple account tiers. And both, according to WikiFX, sit near the very bottom of the safety scale. So instead of crowning a champion, this comparison is really about something more useful: learning to read the warning signs, understanding the small differences that still matter, and knowing why "the better of two risky options" is still a conversation about risk.

If you trade forex from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, or Nepal, you already know the quiet truth that eats into every trader's results: it is not just the market that decides whether you profit — it is the cost of getting in and out of each trade. Shave a couple of dollars off your commission on every lot, multiply it across hundreds of trades a year, and you are looking at the difference between a strategy that works and one that bleeds out slowly. South Asian traders are some of the most cost-conscious in the world, and rightly so. So we pulled the data on the brokers most often recommended for the region, cross-checked every name on WikiFX, and ranked them by the one number that matters most here: what they actually charge you to trade. Before the list, one quick lesson that will make this whole ranking click.

If you have spent even a week inside trading communities lately, you already know the pitch by heart. Pass a quick "challenge," get handed a funded account worth tens of thousands of dollars, and keep up to 80% of everything you make. No risking your own savings, no slow grind of building capital from scratch — just skill, a small fee, and a fast track to the big leagues. It is the exact dream every new trader is secretly chasing, and an entire industry has sprung up to sell it. XPO Fund is one of the louder voices selling that story right now. Its website is slick, its plans sound generous, and its marketing leans hard on words like "industry's lowest fee" and "fast payouts." But before you reach for your card, there is one number sitting quietly on this firm's profile — a number it would rather you scroll past — that every experienced trader would beg you to look at first. And no, it is not the profit split. Let's pull XPO Fund apart piece by piece: what it actually is, who is real
