Fixed Dealing Spreads Under All Market Conditions
FX Trading clients routinely benefit from the size and strength of one the world\'s largest online foreign exchange providers. With access to over $1 billion in liquidity from the world\'s top FX banks, FX Trading is able to pass along bank level pricing to our clients through our clearing firms.
FX Trading offers standard and mini account size clients a fixed dealing spread of either 2 or 3 pips on the major currency pairs and crosses. FX Trading will not widen spreads under any market condition - including before and after major economic releases or other important news and events.
It is important to remember that quality of execution is every bit as important as tight spreads. In other words, tight spreads are meaningless if you can\'t get filled at your price. This is a very subtle but important point, and we stand behind our commitment to provide both: competitive dealing spreads AND quality fills. Limited Risk - Negative Balance Protection.
At FX Trading, your risk is only limited to funds on deposit. Our margin policy eliminates concerns about debit balances by closing all open positions in your account if your account value falls below a certain level (usally $500 USD of equity for standard accounts and $50 USD of equity for mini accounts) this helps protect you from owing more then what you have in your account.
Up to 400: 1 Leverage
The leverage available in forex is one of the main advantages of this market, especially for futures and stock traders. Higher leverage is possible because of unparalleled size of the Forex market - at over $2 trillion a day, the volume of the Forex market dwarfs the U.S equity markets by more than 30x. The sheer amount of transactions done every day in the Forex market makes it highly liquid, which in turn causes price stability. These three factors support the use of higher leverage. The higher the leverage, the more buying power you have. Leverage increases your total return on investment -- with less cash outlay. Of course, trading on margin magnifies both your profits AND your losses. For a more detailed description of trading on margin, click here.
Commission-Free Trading
For many, commission-free trading is one of the most attractive features of FX Trading. Stock and futures traders find this hard to believe, but it\'s true. That\'s because stock and futures trading is done through a middleman - the broker - whose sole means of making money is by charging commissions. In contrast, when you deal with FX Trading, you\'re dealing directly with a market maker. The cost of trading is built into the bid/ask spread found in all financial products. What\'s more, there are no exchange fees when dealing forex. FX Trading is an Introducing Broker that is compensated by a volume rebate from the bid/ask spread paid by the clearing firm.
FX Trading offers two platforms for desktop trading: Java verison and Web based. Both offer a secure and robust environment in which to trade and manage your account.

Needless to say, time is also the decisive factor in the investment world. With every tick of the clock fortunes are made and opportunities are lost. In the Foreign Exchange market, where the bulls and bears have little or no role, a timely decision can spell success. Should you buy, sell, hold or trade? What may be profitable for one investor might not necessarily be right for you. An investment plan, tailored to you and not the market, can be the winning edge.
FX Trading Inc. strives to provide the expertise and resources to guide and assist you with all your investment needs in the Forex market, a unique, exciting and fast moving market. This dynamic environment may furnish the precise opportunities to realize your dreams.
Always bear in mind that all the experience and expertise in the world can not remove the risk of loss of your investment. It is precisely that risk that gives rise to any profit opportunity. This market may not be suitable for all investors. As in all financial ventures, read the Risk Statements carefully and thoroughly understand it before making your decision.
