What is the difference between spot forex and future forex? Which one is more easier to trade and earn profit? Does future forex also can be traded 24 hours on internet brokers?
 
Futures in the case of Forex are products provided by www.cme.com CME is effectively the exchange
This is a highly regulated and fair market

Spot Forex can be an artificial market created by a broker and in general isn't well regulated

Futures in some products can be thin and thus the spreads etc may make them more difficult to trade than spot

Futures also have fixed contract sizes, which is not necessarily the case in the spot market.
