Tadawul FX Experiences 175% Increase in Trading Volume Via Its Mobile Forex Trading Apps

Nov 9th, 2011
Comments Off

Further to the recent introduction of mobile trading applications by Tadawul FX, mobile forex trading has seen a growth in volume of 175% over the past month alone. The MT4 Mobile Forex trading applications for BlackBerry, Android, iPhone and iPad provided by the Forex broker have been downloaded by many of its traders, allowing trading on the go with easy access. The continued volatility in the markets has also prompted clients to trade more frequently and further capitalize on opportunities to increase profit potential.

With a strong reputation for its focus on offering premier customer support, European licensed online Forex and CFDs broker Tadawul FX, continues to prove that adapting to customers’ needs is of utmost importance to the company.

A few short months after the launch of its upgraded mobile trading platforms, including apps for Blackberry, Android, iPad and iPhone, Windows Mobile and Smartphone, Tadawul FX has experienced an impressive 175% increase in mobile forex trading volume. A web-based Forex trading platform which was simultaneously launched, and which allows access via mobile phone and PC, was also very well received and has been used extensively by Tadawul FX traders.

In line with the overall increase in trading volumes seen across the industry in 2011, Tadawul FX has also experienced a large uplift, both due to the growth of the company and its client base, and also due to the volatility of the markets, which translates directly into large market movements and therefore further opportunities for trades. Global factors such as the unrest in the Middle East, the UK riots, incidents of natural disasters and so on, cause great shifts in the markets, allowing traders to take advantage and capitalize on these upward and downward market movements.

Stavros Yiannakou, Chief Executive Officer of Tadawul FX, explains that the increase in trading volume has been significant this year. “The benefit of Forex trading, which makes it superior to other investment asset classes, is that it requires market movement to make a profit, which can be on either site of the market’s directional movements. So even in a downturn there is potential to make money. And the larger the movement, the more potential there is for profit. With clients from 142 countries, Tadawul FX has seen a marked increase in trading volume, especially from European and Middle East regions directly linked to these large movements.”

Thomas Papantoniou, Chief Operations Officer of Tadawul FX, explains the impact of mobile trading applications on this increase. “With mobile trading, Tadawul FX clients have more opportunity to take advantage of these sudden and large market movements and to better tap into the volatility to their benefit, wherever they are. So far, the most popular mobile apps for our traders have been the iPhone and iPad, followed by Android, Blackberry and Windows. The wide variety of platforms covered, coupled with the option of a web-based interface, and a large choice of language options, is giving our customers direct access to the MetaTrader 4 platform and eliminating the need to download the platform altogether.”

Papantoniou adds, “Platform non-dependency and the simultaneous launch in 10 languages were specifically intended to take advantage of this market volatility. Our mobile applications have all been designed with practicality, speed and user-friendliness in mind. Traders can monitor prices on Forex and CFDs in real time, create ‘favourites’ and ‘watchlists’ for specific interests key to their portfolio. Traders also have the ability to open and close instant market orders, amend and place existing orders including SellStop, StopLoss, BuyStop and TakeProfit. There are user guides available if needed, in conjunction of course with our 24 hour support. The intention of these applications is ultimately to better inform our clients, which will inevitably lead to better trading. Backed by the trading results of 2011 and the popularity of these mobile trading apps so far, it seems our clients are after precisely the same thing, which is simply another way to effectively stay on top of a fast moving market, and another way to make greater profits.”

InvestTechFX offers FX Traders Competitive Spreads in Response to China’s Increased Stake in Europe

Nov 7th, 2011
Comments Off

Smaller retail Forex traders have traditionally been at a disadvantage. Margin deposits required for an online trading account with an Forex ECN broker were prohibitively steep. Minimum trade sizes left absolutely no room for error or to maneuver. Traders in this situation frequently had to accept substandard trading platforms, and unpredictable, variable spreads from market maker brokers. InvestTechFX has eradicated this reality by making minimum account size and trade size very reasonable. Along with this, they provide access to the same professional FX trading platform, MetaTrader, that was once limited to only the biggest traders.

Online Forex traders new to Forex currency exchange trading were often put off by margin deposits exceeding $100,000. Some Forex ECN brokers had minimum initial account deposits of $250,000.

Although margin deposits with a market maker broker could be lower, higher, variable spreads, even on major currencies, could result in a large percentage of trading profits going to the broker, or worse yet trading losses being magnified by that large percentage. InvestTechFX has eradicated this reality by making minimum account size and trade size very reasonable, also offering some of the most competitive spreads.

For example, if a trader pays a market maker a two pip spread on a 1000 unit trade of the EUR/USD that earns a ten pip profit, InvestTechFX experts explain that the two pip spread would cost that trader 20%. Any broker of stocks, bonds or futures that tried to charge a 20% commission would be drawn and quartered. Fx trading experts at InvestTechFX go onto explain that the percentage represented by the spread would decrease as profit increased, but upon objective examination, it seems as though the trader takes the risks and the market maker broker reaps the reward with zero risk. In times of high volatility, the market maker’s spread can even be higher, further eroding positive trades and escalating the damage of losing trades.

An Electronic Clearing Network (Forex ECN) broker like InvestTechFX, on the other hand, offers spreads as low as one half pip on major currency pairs. The spread can be higher on the currencies of politically and economically unstable countries, but new traders shouldn’t be trading these currencies in the first place and experienced traders have already learned to avoid them.

InvestTechFX has opening margin deposits of as little as $100, so new traders can sample foreign currency exchanges with minimal risk and have the opportunity to determine Forex trading’s suitability to their temperament and circumstances. They also offer clients the use of MetaTrader, considered to be the gold standard of trading software. This is the same trading platform preferred by large professional and institutional traders, those whose deal in multimillion unit Forex currency exchange transactions.

InvestTechFX recently reported the potential for a breakout to the upside of the EUR/USD pair, based on the stagnation of price activity around $1.39 and the very real prospect of China coming to the EU’s rescue. Bankers facing a 60% write-down of the Greek debt they were holding, along with the real possibility of being left with entirely worthless paper, happily accepted China’s offer of $.50 on the dollar.

News of the agreement, details of which remain to be finalized, sent the EUR/USD on a 350 pip tear, explains InvestTechFX. The uptrend lasted throughout the New York session until close to the end, when prices retreated slightly, but in no degree sufficient to declare a reversal. Still, experts still admit that they don’t know with total assurance what the market will do.

The Forex trading company InvestTechFX is a proven leader in the industry of artificial intelligence software. They are renowned for their top notch trading technology systems in the computerized trading industry whose experts develop advanced, customizable, intuitive, efficient, and sophisticated trading tools that help people understand Forex currency exchange related trends and developments. Apart from offering new, exciting, and innovative solutions, they are well known for their detailed and comprehensive learning center. Information contained in this report should not be construed as investment advice. All trading decisions and outcomes are the total responsibility of the person or persons making them.

InvestTechFX supplies objective technical and fundamental analysis for free. Anyone deciding to enter currency transactions based on this analysis does so at their sole risk and accepts complete responsibility for the outcome. FX trading is challenging. Stacking the deck in your favor by getting the lowest per-transaction costs and access to professional trading software is a commonsense approach to starting out or staying on the right foot.

MB Trading UK Announces Free ECN Forex Pricing

Nov 2nd, 2011
Comments Off

MBT Financial UK Ltd. (MB Trading UK), a technology-driven, UK-based Forex brokerage offering STP and ECN execution via MetaTrader 4 as well as multiple trading platforms, announced today the launch of its Free ECN pricing structure. MB Trading UK is the first Forex broker to offer truly free ECN trading.

“The ECN model has matured, and MB Trading FX has led the industry in those changes. We believe now is the time to again raise the bar with a commission-free ECN model. This bundles the best of all things FOREX to date—an ECN model with orders reflecting on our Limit book, customers able to cross orders with one another, and a non-fixed spread where all participants may reduce the spread with their bids and offers,” said Ross Ditlove, CEO of MB Trading Holdings, parent company of MB Trading FX. “Some traders clearly prefer to not have a commission added to their trade after the fact. With this plan, we take our bank fee and apply a small mark-up to cover our costs. The price that is reflected in the montage is the total trade cost. For clients who prefer to only post their limit orders, MB Trading UK will continue to offer its hugely successful Pay for Limits plan”

The company is the first brokerage to offer such a pricing structure via its MetaTrader 4 platform. MB Trading UK is now accepting live accounts for the new pricing model and has updated its website to display comparisons of its spreads to other brokers on its website, www.mbtrading.co.uk.

”Thanks to MB Trading’s neutrality, our bank quotes are very  competitive, thus we can add a small mark-up into the quote and compete with any spread-based Forex broker while still showcasing our ECN technology to allow retail customers to enjoy these benefits,” said David Lipsett, Executive Vice-President of MB Trading. “This gives traders two unique structures to select, both of which are very competitive models within the industry.”
