Analysis / Bias
ForexLive delivers real-time financial content focused on FX, commodities, central banks, and macroeconomics, including U.S. housing data and the impact of Middle East oil prices. The writing style is concise and fact-based, drawing heavily on reputable sources such as Reuters and Bloomberg. However, a blend of news and sponsored content appears under “Education,” sometimes inadequately labeled (e.g., BCA Crypto Scam Recovery). This undermines transparency.
Editorially, the site maintains a centrist tone and refrains from ideological commentary.
Failed Fact Checks
- There are no known failed fact checks from IFCN-verified sources or major fact-checking organizations.
