Exchanges Around the World with ForexGen











Technology has fueled the growth of global trading over the past decade, fostering dreams of a single universal marketplace. Yet, investors who have diversified their portfolios across borders and product lines might not always know how their orders are handled on a multiplicity of exchanges and market centers around the globe.

Rules and trading technologies differ significantly not only from one country to the other, but often from one exchange to the other. Rules change frequently too, as exchanges continue to evolve from members-owned monopoly utilities into competitive execution businesses.

ForexGen LLC , which provides direct access to over 50 exchanges and market centers around the world, has incorporated these various exchange rules in its SMART-routing technology to ensure that customers obtain true best execution, no matter what product they trade or where they trade it.

The business of the exchanges is in flux, due to heightened competition and the consolidation trend inherent to a utility-type sector. A number of exchanges have already demutualized and turned themselves into for-profit corporations, some of which are publicly traded. Other markets are merging to better compete in a low-margin business where innovations require substantial investments.

U.S. exchanges face important regulatory challenges as well, with the Securities and Exchange Commission mulling crucial reforms to modernize U.S. capital markets in the 21st century.

The proposed Regulation NMS would acknowledge the advance of electronic trading and likely force the remaining floor-based securities exchanges to alter their model in order to remain competitive. In anticipation of the changes, the New York Stock Exchange has already submitted a proposal for a new hybrid model.

An even bigger challenge may come from the SEC concept release on self-regulatory organizations. It questions the “advisability of implementing enhancements to the current SRO system or pursuing an alternative regulatory model,” which could lead to a single independent regulator with no business ties to the exchanges. Without a regulatory franchise, exchanges would be businesses fighting for customers.

ForexGen has followed how trading began and is still evolving on the major venues that its Universal platform accesses via broadband to trade equities, exchange-traded funds (ETFs), options, futures, foreign exchange and bonds. With Universal, ForexGen provides a gateway to global markets and multiple products from a single account in a single currency.

What is More Important in Forex than Making Money?

What is More Important in Forex than Making Money?



I haven't been able to make any progress monetarily in about a month. I'm up about 4% this month but breaking my account balance all-time high has been a struggle. I'm pretty much stuck where I was around this time last month. I'm not all that concerned and shouldn't be considering I was preaching patience a couple of days ago. It's just that every time I open my trading platform, the account balance is just staring me in the face.

It's more important that I progress as a risk-aversed trader. For newer traders, it's very important for you to understand that learning methods to control your risk should be a priority. Making gains monetarily is obviously important but making gains and strides elsewhere are more important. When I first started trading mostly with demo accounts, I had some unbelievably profitable trades but my strategies were random and my risk and leverage too high. A lot of this is just pure luck and not going to take you to the next level. Your account balance shouldn't be used as a guage for success. Some questions to ask yourself to guage your success may be:

Have you managed to minimize your risk and maximize your reward?

Have you maintained consistency?

Have you been able to control your emotions?

Have you developed a complete trading system that you've been able to follow without deviation?

If you haven't been profitable, have you at least been able to turn those gushing drawdowns into slow bleeders?

Safety of Funds with ForexGen

Safety of Funds with ForexGen



Maintaining the security of your money is a top priority at ForexGen. No Forex broker can truly guarantee the safety of a client’s Forex deposits. Therefore you should choose your Forex dealer after close consideration.

Quite often the best way to judge a firm’s financial integrity is by its reputation and the commitment it shows to its clients through its service and business decisions. Our devotion to our clients has made our firm a respected industry leader. Investors must be prudent in regard to where they hold their funds and it is vital to consider the integrity of the firm and its management when making one’s decision.

Furthermore, our firm holds all deposits with only highly reputable financial institutions. Our firm is grateful for the trust our clients place in us, and we do everything in our power to preserve the safety of our clients’ funds.

Quality Dealing Services

Quality Dealing Services



As a Forex trader, you don’t want your hard work to be undermined by substandard dealing desk staff. The ForexGen team of experienced dealers is dedicated to ensuring that your trades are executed in the most timely and accurate manner possible. Unlike some other Forex brokers, we will never execute a market order at a price other than one which you approve. In addition, our dealers will often execute your order at your original price even if the market has moved against you — another practice that sets ForexGen apart from the average broker.

The ForexGen dealing desk strives to provide its clients with some of the fairest and highest quality order execution in the market. Our dealing desk offers both online as well as phone based execution when necessary. Our dealing support team is available 24 hours a day to handle dealing related issues and disputes.

Market Orders
Market orders are created when a trader wants to open a position at the current market price. After the trader clicks on a price, he or she must confirm the price prior to execution. The price sent to the dealing desk will be the price shown in the confirmation window the moment the trader accepted the trade ForexGen will execute the trade in real-time if the available price is at or within a few pips of the requested price. Once the order is executed the opened position instantaneousely appears on the client’s trading platform.

If the market has moved and no price within a few pips of the requested price is available, the dealing desk will send the client a requote at the most current market price. The client can then either accept or reject the requote. Orders will never be executed at the new price without the client’s prior consent. This means that there is never slippage on market orders. Slippage is defined as the difference between the price approved by the client and the price at which the order is actually executed.

In an attempt to decrease the occurrence of requotes during fast moving markets and to help guarantee effective market entry during major jumps in market price, ForexGen has introduced a Trader’s Range feature in its VT Trader software. The Trader’s Range option allows clients to automatically approve requotes within a chosen range. For example, if Trader’s Range is set to 10, requotes within ten pips of the requested price will be processed without requiring the client’s confirmation. Please note that because orders placed by trading systems are classified as market orders, they are subject to requoting as per market order processing procedures.

Conditional Orders (stops, limits, entry stops and entry limits)
Conditional orders are triggered when the market price reaches the price specified in the order. When this happens, the client’s initial order is activated, requesting that the order be filled at the specified price. Under normal market conditions, ForexGen will honor the specified price on conditional orders of up to 100 mini or 10 standard lots. Larger orders as well as orders executed in extremely volatile markets will be executed at the next available quote if the market has passed over the requested price. This is known to occur over the weekend, when Sunday’s opening price is sometimes significantly different from Friday’s closing and during major market moves.

Many Forex dealers widen their spreads prior to a major market move, thus making market entry more difficult. As ForexGen offers fixed spreads, ensuring that you can always expect quality prices, we may limit the placement of new conditional orders to at least 35 pips away from the current market price for approximately 15 minutes before major news announcements. Under normal market conditions you may place conditional orders as close as 5 pips from the market price.

So you Want To Trade for a Living

I always enjoy Brett's books on trading psychology. While impressed by his ongoing sharing about this important subject, I emailed him recently to request an article for aspiring traders who want to trade for a living. This is not an easy feat, but it is not mission impossible. Trading the financial markets is basically trading your belief on the financial markets. It takes a disciplined mindset, proper money management and a good trading system to trade profitably. Most workshops teach you the technical skills, but rarely touch deeply on the subject of trading psychology. Therefore, I recommend you to read "Enhancing Trader Performance" by Brett N. Steenbarger to develope cutting edge of trading psychology. Below is an article he approved to publish at FX Operator:

I receive quite a few emails from aspiring full-time traders. Some hope to land positions with trading firms; others are looking to make a living by trading independently. Here are a few considerations for those thinking of making the leap:

  1. Make sure you're adequately capitalized - This is, in my experience, the achilles heel of most traders who aspire to make a career of their market participation. If you start with a capital base under $100,000, you have to make a huge annual return on your money year after year to sustain a decent living. That leads traders with small accounts to take outsized risks, and those risks are what eventually blow them up. As a relatively new trader, you'd do *very* well to make 20% on your money per year after costs. If you can't make an adequate living from 20% returns, you know you're undercapitalized.
  2. If you're not adequately capitalized, focus on building a track record - It doesn't matter if you're trading small. If you can show consistent returns from your trading and sound money management, you'll have something to take to a proprietary trading firm to land a position. They will front you capital, and you can get your start in the business. If you don't have the track record, however, you'll find many doors closed. Motivation and a passion for trading don't substitute for experience and demonstrated skill.
  3. Make sure you have a durable edge - Before you quit your day job and pursue trading, make sure you've traded in a variety of market conditions over a variety of market cycles. Look at it this way: if a person with a track record of a few months asked you to give him money to trade for your account, would you pony up? Probably not. For the same reasons, you should establish a sound track record with solid profitability and good risk management before you make the full-time leap. Make as many of your mistakes as possible *before* you go full time.
  4. Make sure you have reserves - Just as many new businesses tread water their first year, many traders struggle to cover costs when they go "live". After all, to cover commission, equipment, and software costs alone requires a fair return on capital. You should have more than a year's worth of living expenses available as liquid capital before you go full time. A second income (your own or from a spouse) also helps tremendously. This will take pressure off your early performance and help you focus on making good trades, rather than making the rent money.

The bottom line is that starting a trading career truly is starting an entrepreneurial business. The same dynamics that lead to success in startup firms--from knowing your markets to having a solid plan to being well capitalized to executing on details--apply to aspiring traders. If you can approach trading with the mindset, work ethic, and creativity of a successful entrepreneur, you have a real shot. And that's what entrepreneurs live for.

What Drove the US Dollar to a Record Low

What Drove the US Dollar to a Record Low

Those who may have hoped for a recovery in the US dollar have been sorely disappointed. The greenback hit a record low against the Euro and it will just be a matter of time before the EUR/USD hits 1.60. Before you know it, we’ll be talking about the possibility of one Euro being worth 2 US dollars. Although this may be far fetched, who would have thought that the Swiss franc would be worth more than a US dollar?

Although the once mighty greenback faces long term pressures such as a depressed labor market that is expected to deteriorate further and the strong possibility of another contraction in retail sales, the latest round of dollar weakness was actually triggered by the following:

1) News that Lehman Brothers liquidated 3 of its investment funds due to “market disruptions.”

2) Concerns that the usually stubborn ECB President will hold his ground on inflationary pressures, which he did. Eurozone interest rates remain at 6 year highs despite clear signs of slowing growth.

3) Strong Eurozone and UK Economic Data - French and Italian industrial production both beat expectations while the UK trade deficit narrowed.

The dollar continued to remain under pressure as the trade deficit increased in the month of February. Even though everyone was looking for the weaker dollar to help boost trade, I forecasted an increase in the deficit because the previous drop in the ISM manufacturing index told us that it would be weak (Forecasting News)

Jobless claims also dropped sharply but the improvement is primarily due to the Easter Calendar effect. I still expect claims for unemployment to rise especially since continuing claims remain at very high levels.

Not only is the US dollar trading at a record low against the Euro, but it also slipped below 7 Chinese Yuan. With this big psychological barrier breached, the G7’s criticism towards China’s currency regime will be limited.

Nothing has changed and if anything, ECB President Trichet has confirmed his hawkishness. US retail sales are due for release next week and with Linens ‘n Things joining Domain, Fortunoff, and Sharper Image in filing for bankruptcy protection, consumer spending will contract for another month. Crude oil and gasoline prices have also hit a record high which is going to hurt consumer spending further.

The ECB's and BOE's rate decisions puts more wind to the back of EUR/GBP!









The Eurozone and the U.K. economies continue to diverge.

For years and years, these two economies followed each other up and down in "lock step". Then the credit/sub-prime crisis hit. This pushed the U.K. economy lower as they experienced the same things that America experienced: Hedge fund blow ups, banks struggling, housing prices falling, etc.

On the other hand, many other European banks didn't have as much exposure to "sub-prime" as did the "financial epicenter", the U.K.

So as these economies "de-linked" and continue to diverge, it's produced a heck of an uptrend in the EUR/GBP pair. Click on the chart to enlarge it below.
