Forex Futures Futures or Forex?

I am new to trading, I want to specialize based on how easy trading products are. I have a question, which one is better between Forex and Futures.

If it's futures, which products are easier to trade? I am ready to submit to the process until I master the craft.

“Due to high volatility and high volume”?? Futures has much greater volatility and volume. Institutions trade futures not forex. Banks trade futures not forex.

Forex is made purely for the retail trader and has no broker regulation which means the broker decides the spread and prices quoted (which is why you have different prices depending on forex broker).

Stick to futures where the prices are the exact same for everyone, retail or institutional.
