Q. What is a Pip?
A. The smallest price change that a given exchange rate can make. Since our major currency pairs are priced to five decimal places, the smallest change is that of the fourth decimal point. For example, if the USD/CAD currency pair moves by $0.0001 then this is 1 pip.

Q. What is asset management?
A. The management of a client's investments by a financial services company. The company will invest on behalf of its clients and give them access to a wide range of traditional and alternative product offerings that would not be to the average investor. The expense of this service generally restricts it to high net-worth individuals, governments, corporations and financial intermediaries. This includes such products as forex, equity, fixed income, real estate, agriculture and international investments. When individuals deposit money into the account, it is placed into a money market fund that offers a greater return that can be found in regular savings and checking accounts

Q. Does anyone else have access to my funds?
A. No, the funds in your forex trading managed account are in your name at the broker. You are the proprietor of this account and the only one who can make deposits to or withdrawals from this account. The only power you grant to the trade manager for the managed program is the power to trade your account through a Limited Power of Attorney, which also authorizes the deduction of the agreed performance fee/profit share ("incentive fee") stated on the Power of Attorney.

Q. Once my new account is funded, how long before it will start being traded?
A. This varies but usually it will only take days before you see the first trades being placed. As soon as your account is funded, the trade manager sees that it is ready for inclusion in the next new cycle of trades - you don't need to do anything.

Q. Can I open or close trades in the account that is being managed for me?
A. No - It can only be traded by the trade manager. You can revoke the Power of Attorney at any time.
