Currencies have a larger range than stock indices. Ask anyone who trades emini futures. A lot of stock index traders have moved to currencies (as well as crude oil, gold, etc.) because stock index futures have become so choppy.
Yes, some individual stocks can move a lot more than currencies. But these stocks (often penny stocks and other high-risk ones) have their own issues. One of main problems is that they aren't as liquid as Forex.
