Yes, many of my friends who are students who do forex, they have been very successful in it. A good choice for them to get extra pocket money there are lots of brokers and the great feature is that this market is open 20 hours and as part time it is really very good Mine too students and I trade from 1 year and very happy with forex and actually I not recommending forex trading for students because forex is like an addiction and if someone starts trading forex it is very difficult for him to leave it. I am afraid that students can leave studies for forex as soon as they are involved in forex trading.
