Check the Authorization of Forex Dealers:
Before entering the off-foreign exchange trading, be sure about the authorization of the forex dealers. This authorization aims at monitoring the regulation of the dealer, his registration status as well as other background details. The key entities that are allowed to enter this off-trading market include insurance companies, banks, future commission merchants, broker-dealers or other regulated entities.

Be cautious before Investment:
Avoid making investments in such investment schemes that boast of hefty returns with minimal risk factor. Try to be more cautious and carry out an investment only with those firms which are regulated and more secure.
Fluctuations in the market:
A foreign exchange market is highly volatile in nature. That is, sometimes the exchange rates will hike and on the very next day, it may decline. These fluctuations, in turn affect the cost-value of the forex contract, thus affecting the interest rates.
No central marketplace:
In case you are opting for an investment in off-foreign exchange trading, then forget about any kind of central marketplace. It is only up to the forex dealer for providing you with valid execution price. In fact, it is the dealer’s integrity that enables you to carry on a sound dealing with him.
System failure:
If you are relying on the internet-based services or other such electronic systems, then be cautious about the system failures. These system failures thus evade one from entering new orders, executing the existing trade orders, or sometimes you are not at all allowed to update the previously entered trade orders. These system failures, thus ultimately result in a failure to place further orders or at times, it may also thrash the priority of the orders placed.
So, it is highly recommended to go through these strategies before investing in off-foreign exchange trading.
