FOREX question: What is the advantage of having a ‘standard’ account over a ‘mini’ account?


this broker offers 200:1 for minis, but 100:1 for standards.
I don’t think I’ll actually try more than about 50:1, but w/e, so is lot size of 100,000 considered and advantage because you don’t have to get bas busy to place orders? There must be a more signoficant reason to differentiate between the two accounts.

Maybe the spread gets better?
Maybe insterest rates are better?
4XTrader… Can I work for you?

Even though I trade fx, the leverage part always kind of baffled me. Leverage determines how much margin you need to put up. For example in a std. account, 1 lot = $100,00, so a leverage of 100:1 in a std. account means $1,000 margin per lot. On a mini a lot is $10,000, so leverage of 200:1 is $50

forex brokerage firms
which is the best brokerage firm for forex trading? and why?


When looking for a brokerage firm to trade forex, you look at 3 things: commissions, service and execution. Regardless what any dealer or broker says, the spread charged on your currency trade is a commission, period. Most firms charge around 2-3 pips a trade, although your trading volume may make you eligible for a discount. Other firms will charge an additional commission, usually stated in $$/ round-turn.

The firm I worked at was predominately short sellers. Short sellers are often times viewed as the villains and bullies of the market. Selling a stock short means you sell it first, hoping it goes down, then buy it back at a lower price. Shorting a stock in theory is much riskier than buying a stock. When you buy a stock you know exactly how much money you can loose, the stock could go to zero. When you short a stock it can keep going up. In theory you can loose an unlimited amount of money.

Back in the mid 1990′s, there were a lot of so called chop shop brokerage firms around. These firms had reputations for promoting companies that were not quality companies. In other words, junk companies, barely worth anything. They bought these stocks for their clients with the hope of making big commissions. Think, an off shoot

The new IvyBot Evolution has completed a set of tests performed by a select group of beta testers whose trading results on real live money accounts were well above average to say the least.

When I first started hearing about this new software one thing that catch my attention was the fact that one of the beta testers (which pulled 29% in a month) was a well known contributor of the Forex Peace Army, which is one of the few forex communities where you can find a great deal of honest and unbiased information about almost anything forex related.

This circumstance added to the real live trading results, and the fact the previous IvyBot has been working like a charm in for me, really sparked my interest and I decided to do some serious research about the software.

As a result here is a brief IvyBot Evolution review with a few important things you
