Dear Clients and Partners,​

RoboMarkets/RoboForex Group organized and sponsored “Systematic approach in investing”, a conference that took place on October 19th 2019 in Minsk.

The conference featured recognized experts in the financial area, such as Zdenek Zanka, Alexei Lutsayev, and Filippo Macaluso, who brought up the following topics in their presentations:

  • Stock market: artificial intelligence in service with a portfolio manager.
  • Risk Management and Trading: How to deal with Uncertainty and Black Swan from retail trader prospective.
  • Building and testing algorithmic strategies without programming.

The event included theoretical and practical studies, panel discussions, as well as coffee break and networking. A special appearance was made by Andrei Kulebin, a successful Belarus Muay Thai fighter and a kickboxing world champion, who told guests about his challenges in sport and took pictures with everyone who wanted.

The conference was held in a roomy hall of the “Beijing” hotel absolutely for free. On the event day, attendees had an opportunity to use MeYou, an online service, to take part in different surveys and put questions to organizers and speakers. The service was actively used by more than 70% of visitors.

"During the conference, we managed to create a favorable atmosphere for sharing knowledge and experience, and I’m sure our event made a weighty contribution to development of professional investor community in the Republic of Belarus."

What Do You Know About Forex Trading Strategies?

Author: Timofey Zuev

Dear Traders,​

Before talking about strategies, it would be better to find out what strategies exist at all, which strategy suits which trader and what strategy to choose. Searching for your best strategy through trial and error may take years, that is why this issue requires a systemic approach.

Mechanical and discretionary strategies

First of all, strategies can be divided into two groups: mechanical and discretionary ones. A mechanical strategy will require from a player nothing else but disciplined trading, because decision-making is built in the very algorithm of the strategies. The advantage of such strategies is the lack of emotional involvement into trading and of feeling responsible for its result: all steps are prescribed by the algorithm. Drawbacks are the very same – in case the market changes, the algorithm may start generating losing trades that the trader will have to perform without question, watching their money disappear.

As you may see, being a mere executor is not that easy. If the trader does not understand the market and the reasons for making certain steps, this may let them down, because at some point they may start sabotaging the prescribed trades. However, if you have created the strategy yourself and you are sure that it is based on the fundamental rules of the market, it will be much easier to follow such strategy. My experience and that of my fellow traders suggests that the most successful strategies are those that blend in mechanical algorithms and independently made decisions...

Netting vs. Hedging: What Is The Difference?

roboforex-header.jpg


Dear Traders,​

Many traders who use Forex terminals have come across a situation when they fail to place a lock and their open order is closed.

Another type of such a situation: when a second position on an instrument is open, the first position increased its volume for no obvious reasons. The explanation may be simple: the account could have been open by the Netting system.

The Netting system allows only one position open in any direction for one instrument. The system is used all over the stock market. To put it simpler, the trader cannot open selling and buying position on one instrument simultaneously - the positions mutually close, the orders open in one direction summing up.

The Hedging system allows as many open positions in different directions as you wish.

Why are there two types of accounts?

The answer is simple. The Netting system was initially used for trading on stock markets. After the Forex market appeared, there was an attempt to make trading and controlling open positions simpler. This allowed traders to use different strategies on one account. Let us discuss the two systems in detail, looking at a couple of examples.
