Frequently Asked Questions

• How can I make a profit in the Forex market?
  We shall assume that you are a client of our company, and that you have an account with 1000 USD, which allows you to strike a bargain on a market lot of 100 000 USD. Having analyzed the change of the USD/JPY rate by means of a method of convergence - divergence of the sliding averages MACD (the fast line has crossed the slow from top to down) - you make a decision to buy 100 000 USD against the Japanese yen at the price of 121.00.Within a few hours of a day when the USD/JPY rate has grown on 200 points, and becomes 123.00, you decide to close a position; therefore, you will have sold your dollars at a higher rate than what you bought them at, and made a profit.
  The profit (loss) = [(the price of closing - the price of opening) lot's weight] /price of closing Profit = [(123.00-121.00) *100000]/123.00=1626.02 USD
  Notice that the fluctuation of the JPY on 200 points in a day is not an unusual occurrence.
• Why I can't buy or sell on Sunday, some kind of a message "Trade is stopped" jumps out?
  The Forex Market works round the clock from Monday till Friday. Accordingly, on Saturdays and Sundays the tenders are closed.
• What is the price of carrying the position to the next day, and when is it carried out?
  Carrying forward an open position in FOREX market to the next day is done in the form of market swaps which can be both negative, and positive, depending on the difference of interest rates in countries of the currencies.
  We shall assume that in Europe the SWAP rate is 4.25 %, and in USA 3.5 %. Let's say you have 1.0 lot of EUR/USD, and you are open for sale. You decide to sell 100,000 EUR, which means you should borrow the lot for under 4.25 % annually. Having sold euro you buy dollars, which you put at a deposit for under 3.5 % annually. The total costs on your transactions will be: (4.25-3.5) % annually or the same at rate EUR/USD 0.9000. This sum makes 675 dollars per year or 1.85 dollars per day.
  Carrying a position occurs at 00.00 (Server time).

• What is Trailing Stop?

  Trailing Stop

  Stop Loss is intended for reducing of losses where the symbol price moves in an unprofitable direction. If the position becomes profitable, Stop Loss can be manually shifted to a break-even level. To automate this process, Trailing Stop was created. This tool is especially useful when price changes strongly in the same direction or when it is impossible to watch the market continuously for some reason.

  Trailing Stop is always attached to an open position and works in client terminal, not at the server like Stop Loss, for example. To set the trailing stop, one has to execute the open position context menu command of the same name in the "Terminal" window. Then one has to select the desirable value of distance between the Stop Loss level and the current price in the list opened. Only one trailing stop can be set for each open position.

  After the above actions have been performed, at incoming of new quotes, the terminal checks whether the open position is profitable. As soon as profit in points becomes equal to or higher than the specified level, command to place the Stop Loss order will be given automatically. The order level is set at the specified distance from the current price. Further, if price changes in the more profitable direction, trailing stop will make the Stop Loss level follow the price automatically, but if profitability of the position falls, the order will not be modified anymore. Thus, the profit of the trade position is fixed automatically. After each automatic Stop Loss order modification, a record will be made in the terminal journal.

  Trailing stop can be disabled by setting "None" in managing menu. And trailing stops of all open positions and pending orders will be disabled if the "Delete All" command of the same menu has been executed.

  Attention: Trailing Stop works in the client terminal, not in the server (like Stop Loss or Take Profit). This is why it will not work, unlike the above orders, if the terminal is off. In this case, only the Stop Loss level will trigger that has been set by trailing stop.
