As you say you are interested in forex, from my time on the forex forums MT4 was the most popular platform by far. especially for people wanting automated EAs (expert advisors).
The unregulated aspect of the spot forex markets is a whole other question but they do have an advantage over futures in that they have mini or micro lots so you can only be risking a Dollar or less per pip movement. IGindex have a good reputation in the UK. Or Oanda led the way with being able to trade fractions of a penny per pip. What platforms those two offer these days I don't know.
