Yeah, it’s kinda annoying how forex factory makes you do those security checks, but there’s actually a good reason for it. With politics and global money stuff being so crazy, that site gets targeted by a lot of hackers and bots trying to mess things up or steal info. I remember once my cousin in Turkey couldn’t even get onto forex factory because of the security wall, but it turned out there were a bunch of fake accounts posting political rumors right before an election. I think they just want to keep all the data and discussions real, so only actual people are arguing about currency stuff and not tons of bots. Honestly, with all the political drama around currencies, it’s probably smart they have those checks. Better to wait a few seconds and get real info than have the forums filled with scams or fake poll results.
