Checkout the New Currencies on eToro!

We wanted to let you know that, we will soon be adding a few of the most volatile instruments in the currencies market to our offering, starting with the Russian Ruble and the Chinese Yuan!

Not only are these currencies just about as volatile as it gets, but the governments that are behind these currencies are taking an active part in changing the world as we know it. China is becoming one of the economically strongest nations on Earth, while Russia is ignoring the West and taking over the Ukraine. In other words, if you want to go short on Putin, you’re more than welcome to, but we will not be held accountable for the results should he take it personally and react with invading your country as well…

Get Your REST and Be a Successful Investor!

Before any trader starts investing, it is extremely essential to have a sound knowledge about what you will be dealing with. Study and analyze the market, where you want to invest.

I Turned 0 Into k in 10 Months!

I happened to stumble upon binary options quite by chance. A couple of years ago, my brother went through a phase where he fancied himself as a bit of a financial trader. He bought all sorts of books, attended numerous seminars and was hooked on to Bloomberg news day and night. How I Turned 0 into k in 10 Months. He was a pretty average kind of a trader; lacked discipline and got easily carried away. Anyway, he didn’t lose an awful lot of money, but didn’t make much either.

When he finally decided to quit, he had 0 left in his account. It was at this point that I asked him if I could try my hand at binary options trading. Being the bully that he always has been, he quickly dismissed my prospects of succeeding as an online day trader. How could the kid brother grasp the myriad complexities of the world’s financial markets better than the much smarter big brother?

Why We Prefer Forex Trading

Forex trading is one of the most prevalent types of investing, as it provides the investors with a chance to earn quick profits due to small changes in one country's currency. There are a number of advantages that Forex trading possesses in comparison to other investments. A few are given below:

Reduced Margin Rates:
Just like futures and stock speculation, a Forex trader has the ability to control a large amount of the currency basically by putting up a small amount of margin. However, the margin requirements that are needed for trading futures are usually around 5% of the full value of the holding.
One of the most promising advantages of using Forex trading is lower margins. This gives the trader the power to regulate very large amount of currency, by putting forward a minimum margins. Similarly the prerequisites for margin which are required for trading are generally 5% of the holding share or stock value. Trading through margin value has a lot of added advantage over other investment methods, but traders need to cater for the risk possibilities. They should clear all their doubts before opting for margin trading.  There is a chance that the given margin value may fall below the specified value, which may affect the liquidity of your account.
