Important New Margin Requirements for All FXCM Clients
Note: Micro Accounts are covered in a separate release


On Sunday, November 22, FXCM account(s) held with FXCM LLC (FXCM) will be subject to new margin requirements. These changes are taking place to comply with new National Futures Association (NFA) margin rules. The effective date of the new rules is November 30; however, FXCM will be applying the new margin requirements one week early.


On Sunday, November 22, FXCM LTD will be making changes to existing margin requirements for all account holders as well. Margin requirements will be increasing, particularly for currency pairs with EUR or GBP as the base currency. FXCM’s experience in Hong Kong, where significantly lower leverage levels (higher margins) are mandated by law, suggests that trading with lower leverage may assist clients in trading more successfully over an extended time period. The new margin requirements are intended to reduce risk by restricting traders from using excessive leverage.


Based on price fluctuations, all margin requirements are subject to change without notice and will be adjusted up or down in increments of $10 for USD denominated accounts. At present, FXCM does not anticipate that margin requirements will have to be changed more than once a month. Up-to-date margin requirements are and will continue to be displayed in the “Simplified Dealing Rates” window of the trading platform by currency pair.

Why Lower Leverage Is Important
The combination of high leverage and volatile currencies can be extremely dangerous. Accounts that trade volatile pairs, such as GBP/USD and GBP/JPY, with the maximum amount of leverage tend to have less positive performance. On the other hand, traders that focus on less volatile currency pairs, such as USD/JPY and AUD/USD, and use more conservative leverage may benefit from the reduced risk that accompanies trading on lower leverage. When trading volatile currencies with high leverage, one bad trade can wipe out the profits from many good trades. By trading will less leverage, a trader can reduce the risk of a big drawdown from one bad trade.

If you have any questions about the new regulations, or their effect on your risk management, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

Leveraged foreign exchange trading carries a high level of risk, and may not be suitable for all investors. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose.

FXCM Launches Net Stop and Limit Orders on U.S. Accounts

New York, November 16, 2009—FXCM LLC (www.fxcm.com) is re-introducing a great feature to the FXCM Trading Station: Stops and Limits. FXCM has created a new set of stop orders and limit orders that are compliant with the FIFO rules mandated in 2009.
Stop orders and limit orders are some of the most popular tools a trader has to manage risk. FXCM has created a short video to educate FXCM LLC clients on how to use these new stop and limit orders. http://forex.na6.acrobat.com/p39288055/
Traders with FXCM LLC accounts based in the United States can now place stops on all positions in any one currency pair. The new stops and limits will apply to every open position in the currency pair. FXCM calls these new orders “net stop orders” and “net limit orders” because they apply to the total positions, or “net” positions in that pair. Since net stops and net limits apply to all positions in one currency pair, traders now set them in the “Summary” window of the trading station. The “Summary” window shows traders all the positions they currently have open in each currency pair. FXCM LLC clients will notice that there is now a new Stop column and a new Limit column at the far right side of the “Summary” window.
FXCM hopes traders will find these new features useful in their trading, and FXCM will continue to work to improve their abilities as a trader.
For more information on net stop orders and net limit orders, go to the FAQ here: http://forexforums.dailyfx.com/fxcm-trading-station-update-nov-13/
To open a demo account to test the new net stop orders and net limit orders, click here: http://www.fxcm.com/open-free-100k.jsp
Note: All FXCM U.S. based clients with FXCM LTD (FXCM UK) accounts will not be impacted. FXCM LTD clients will continue to place stop and limit orders on individual positions.
