Can you hire someone to trade forex for me, on my behalf?

Can I hire someone to trade forex for me, on my behalf? I hear you ask.

Yes you can.

In fact, hiring someone to buy and sell in the forex market for you is a becoming a popular thing to do and increasingly more so as folk, like yourself, discover them.

They are a relatively unknown investment, that historically have been only accessible to large financial institutions and investors with a lot of money behind them. With the advent of the internet and high speed broadband connections, they have become accessible to everyone.

You are probably wondering how it is done, well, I will tell you.

It is all very straightforward. First of all you don’t need to go out and find a trader for yourself, nor do you need to negotiate deals with them. No, it is all done for you. You end up paying them to buy and sell currency for you but it is taken out of the profits that they make for you.

This type of trading is called managed FX trading, and you can read all about them on this site, starting here acorn2oak-fx.Com.

In summary though, this is what happens –

• you open up a forex trading account in your name.
• you fund the account.
• you give the trader an LPOA (limited power of attorney). This enables them to buy and sell FX for you.
• they do the buying and selling for you.
• the trader takes a performance fee from the profits. Usually 25% to 50%. Although I have found one that only charges 15% .
• you withdraw funds whenever you want to.

Quite simple really: as I said, you will find much more info on this site, FAQ, due diligence etc.

10 ways to avoid losing money in forex

The global forex market is the largest financial market in the world and the potential to reap profits in the arena entices foreign-exchange traders of all levels: from greenhorns just learning about financial markets to well-seasoned professionals with years of trading experience. Because access to the market is easy—with round-the-clock sessions, significant leverage, and relatively low costs—many forex traders quickly enter the market, but then quickly exit after experiencing losses and setbacks. Here are 10 tips to help aspiring traders avoid losing money and stay in the game in the competitive world of forex trading.

Do your homework

Just because forex is easy to get into doesn’t mean due diligence should be avoided. Learning about forex is integral to a trader’s success. While the majority of trading knowledge comes from live trading and experience, a trader should learn everything about the forex markets, including the geopolitical and economic factors that affect a trader’s preferred currencies.

Key takeaways

In order to avoid losing money in foreign exchange, do your homework and look for a reputable broker.

Use a practice account before you go live and be sure to keep analysis techniques to a minimum in order for them to be effective.

It's important to use proper money management techniques and to start small when you go live.

Control the amount of leverage and keep a trading journal.

Be sure to understand the tax implications and treat your trading as a business.

Homework is an ongoing effort as traders need to be prepared to adapt to changing market conditions, regulations, and world events. Part of this research process involves developing a trading plan—a systematic method for screening and evaluating investments, determining the amount of risk that is or should be taken, and formulating short-term and long-term investment objectives.

How do you make money trading money?

Find a reputable broker

The forex industry has much less oversight than other markets, so it is possible to end up doing business with a less-than-reputable forex broker. Due to concerns about the safety of deposits and the overall integrity of a broker, forex traders should only open an account with a firm that is a member of the national futures association (NFA) and is registered with the commodity futures trading commission (CFTC) as a futures commission merchant. each country outside the united states has its own regulatory body with which legitimate forex brokers should be registered.

Traders should also research each broker’s account offerings, including leverage amounts, commissions and spreads, initial deposits, and account funding and withdrawal policies. A helpful customer service representative should have the information and will be able to answer any questions regarding the firm’s services and policies.

Use a practice account

Nearly all trading platforms come with a practice account, sometimes called a simulated account or demo account, which allow traders to place hypothetical trades without a funded account. Perhaps the most important benefit of a practice account is that it allows a trader to become adept at order-entry techniques.

Few things are as damaging to a trading account (and a trader’s confidence) as pushing the wrong button when opening or exiting a position. It is not uncommon, for example, for a new trader to accidentally add to a losing position instead of closing the trade. Multiple errors in order entry can lead to large, unprotected losing trades. Aside from the devastating financial implications, making trading mistakes is incredibly stressful. Practice makes perfect. Experiment with order entries before placing real money on the line.

$5 trillion

Keep charts clean

Once a forex trader opens an account, it may be tempting to take advantage of all the technical analysis tools offered by the trading platform. While many of these indicators are well-suited to the forex markets, it is important to remember to keep analysis techniques to a minimum in order for them to be effective. Using multiples of the same types of indicators, such as two volatility indicators or two oscillators, for example, can become redundant and can even give opposing signals. This should be avoided.

Any analysis technique that is not regularly used to enhance trading performance should be removed from the chart. In addition to the tools that are applied to the chart, pay attention to the overall look of the workspace. The chosen colors, fonts, and types of price bars (line, candle bar, range bar, etc.) should create an easy-to-read-and-interpret chart, allowing the trader to respond more effectively to changing market conditions.

Protect your trading account

While there is much focus on making money in forex trading, it is important to learn how to avoid losing money. Proper money management techniques are an integral part of the process. Many veteran traders would agree that one can enter a position at any price and still make money—it’s how one gets out of the trade that matters.

Part of this is knowing when to accept your losses and move on. Always using a protective stop loss—a strategy designed to protect existing gains or thwart further losses by means of a stop-loss order or limit order—is an effective way to make sure that losses remain reasonable. Traders can also consider using a maximum daily loss amount beyond which all positions would be closed and no new trades initiated until the next trading session.

While traders should have plans to limit losses, it is equally essential to protect profits. Money management techniques such as utilizing trailing stops (a stop order that can be set at a defined percentage away from a security’s current market price) can help preserve winnings while still giving a trade room to grow.

Start small when going live

Once a trader has done their homework, spent time with a practice account, and has a trading plan in place, it may be time to go live—that is, start trading with real money at stake. No amount of practice trading can exactly simulate real trading. As such, it is vital to start small when going live.

Factors like emotions and slippage (the difference between the expected price of a trade and the price at which the trade is actually executed) cannot be fully understood and accounted for until trading live. Additionally, a trading plan that performed like a champ in backtesting results or practice trading could, in reality, fail miserably when applied to a live market. By starting small, a trader can evaluate their trading plan and emotions, and gain more practice in executing precise order entries—without risking the entire trading account in the process.

Use reasonable leverage

Forex trading is unique in the amount of leverage that is afforded to its participants. One reason forex appeals to active traders is the opportunity to make potentially large profits with a very small investment—sometimes as little as $50. Properly used, leverage does provide the potential for growth. But leverage can just as easily amplify losses.

A trader can control the amount of leverage used by basing position size on the account balance. For example, if a trader has $10,000 in a forex account, a $100,000 position (one standard lot) would utilize 10:1 leverage. While the trader could open a much larger position if they were to maximize leverage, a smaller position will limit risk.

Keep good records

A trading journal is an effective way to learn from both losses and successes in forex trading. Keeping a record of trading activity containing dates, instruments, profits, losses, and, perhaps most important, the trader’s own performance and emotions can be incredibly beneficial to growing as a successful trader. When periodically reviewed, a trading journal provides important feedback that makes learning possible. Einstein once said that “insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.” without a trading journal and good record keeping, traders are likely to continue making the same mistakes, minimizing their chances of becoming profitable and successful traders.

Know tax impact and treatment

It is important to understand the tax implications and treatment of forex trading activity in order to be prepared at tax time. Consulting with a qualified accountant or tax specialist can help avoid any surprises and can help individuals take advantage of various tax laws, such as marked-to-market accounting (recording the value of an asset to reflect its current market levels).

Since tax laws change regularly, it is prudent to develop a relationship with a trusted and reliable professional who can guide and manage all tax-related matters.

Treat trading as a business

It is essential to treat forex trading as a business and to remember that individual wins and losses don’t matter in the short run. It is how the trading business performs over time that is important. As such, traders should try to avoid becoming overly emotional about either wins or losses, and treat each as just another day at the office.

As with any business, forex trading incurs expenses, losses, taxes, risk and uncertainty. Also, just as small businesses rarely become successful overnight, neither do most forex traders. Planning, setting realistic goals, staying organized, and learning from both successes and failures will help ensure a long, successful career as a forex trader.

The bottom line

The worldwide forex market is attractive to many traders because of the low account requirements, round-the-clock trading, and access to high amounts of leverage. When approached as a business, forex trading can be profitable and rewarding, but reaching a level of success is extremely challenging and can take a long time. Traders can improve their odds by taking steps to avoid losses: doing research, not over-leveraging positions, using sound money management techniques, and approaching forex trading as a business.

How to trade forex

Once you learn how to trade forex, you’ll understand why it’s such a popular market. You’ll discover that you can choose between many different currency pairs – from majors to exotics – and trade 24 hours a day. Use this guide to learn how to trade currency with our FX trading steps and examples.

Start trading today. Call 0800 195 3100 or email newaccounts.Uk@ig.Com. We’re here 24 hours a day, from 8am saturday to 10pm friday.

Forex trading steps

Choose a currency pair to trade

We offer more than 80 currency pairs – from majors like GBP/USD, to exotics like HUF/EUR. When you trade with us, you’ll be speculating on these forex pairs rising or falling in value with spread bets and cfds.

Before choosing an FX pair to trade, you should carry out fundamental analysis and technical analysis on the two currencies in the pair. This means you should assess how the ‘base’ (the currency on the left) and the ‘quote’ (the currency on the right) move in relation to each other.

Decide whether to ‘buy’ or ‘sell’

Once you’ve chosen a currency pair to trade, you need to decide whether you want to ‘buy’ or ‘sell’, based on your analysis.

You would buy the pair if you expected the base currency to rise in value against the quote currency. Or, you would sell if you expected it to do the opposite. That’s because a currency pair’s price represents how many of the quote currency you’d have to spend to buy a single unit of the base currency.

For example if the price quoted for GBP/USD is 1.28000, it means you’d have to spend $1.28 to buy £1 – so the pound is stronger than the US dollar.

Set your stops and limits

The forex market is particularly volatile, which is why it’s important to have a plan to guide the entry and exit points of your trades. There are various stops and limits you can set to manage your risk when trading forex:

Normal stops will close your position automatically if the market moves against you. Note that normal stops do not protect against slippage.

Guaranteed stops will always be closed out at exactly the price you specified – even if the market moves quickly or ‘gaps’. You’ll pay a small premium if a guaranteed stop is triggered

Trailing stops will follow positive price movements and close your position if the market moves against you

Limit orders can help you to achieve your profit target, and your position will be closed when the price hits your chosen level

Open your first trade

If you want to trade on the value of forex pairs rising or falling with spread bets or cfds, why not open an account with us? Once you’ve done that, simply go to our award-winning trading platform, 1 search for the forex pair you want to trade, enter your position size and choose ‘buy’ or ‘sell’.

There’s no obligation to add funds until you want to place a trade.

Monitor your position

Once you’ve opened your position, you can monitor your FX trade in the ‘open positions’ section of the dealing platform. You can also set price alerts to receive email, SMS or push notifications when a specified buy or sell percentage or point is reached.

Even with these alerts set, it’s still important to keep up to date with the latest news and political events that could move the forex market.

Close your trade and take your profit or loss

Once you’ve decided it’s time to close your position, simply navigate to the ‘positions’ tab, select your position and click on ‘close’. Alternatively, just make the opposite trade to the one you opened. In other words, if you went long on GBP/USD, go short by an equivalent amount to close the position – assuming you’ve selected the ‘net-off’ option on our platform, rather than ‘force open’.

Forex trading examples

We’ve included an example of a forex spread bet and a forex CFD trade below.

Forex spread bet

Forex spread betting lets you make a prediction on the direction in which a forex pair’s price is heading. You’ll bet an amount of money per point of movement, and if the price moves in the same direction that you predicted, the greater your profit. But, the further it moves in the opposite direction, the greater your loss.

Spread bet prices are displayed in points – for example, if GBP/USD is trading at $1.31425, its price would be displayed as 13142.5. This makes no difference to the price you deal at or your potential profit or loss: it simply makes it easier to track per-point movements. When you trade forex with spread bets, all of your profits are completely tax-free. 2

Forex CFD trade

When you trade cfds, you’re agreeing to exchange the difference in the price of a position from the point at which it is opened up until it is closed. CFD prices are displayed in the same way as a regular forex pair’s quote price – for example 1.31425.

Plus, you’ll be able to speculate on prices rising by going long, as well as falling by going short. Standard forex cfds are worth 100,000 units of the first named currency in the pair, while mini forex cfds are worth just 10,000 units of the same. Cfds are liable to capital gains tax, but you can offset your losses against profits for tax purposes. 2

Trading forex cfds means you’re agreeing to exchange the difference in price of a forex pair from the point at which the CFD is opened, to the point at which it’s closed

Forex spread betting means you’re betting an amount of money per point of movement in the underlying currency pair’s price

But, there are other differences between spread bets and cfds that you should take time to familiarise yourself with.

You only need to put down a small deposit (usually 3.33% of the total position size) when you trade forex with derivatives, because you’ll be trading with leverage. But, while that’s all you need to start trading, remember that profits and losses will be calculated using the full size of the position – so you should ensure that you can cover the downside if the market moves against you.

Once you have established how much capital you have available, you will then need to start preparing the rest of your forex trading plan – this should include what you want to get out of trading forex, the time you are willing to commit to trading, researching which markets you want to trade, your risk management strategy and your trading strategy.

Anyone can trade forex if they develop their trading knowledge, build a forex trading strategy and gain experience trading the market. But, the volatility of the forex market is a unique environment that takes time to understand.

A forex trading strategy should consider the trading style that best suits your goals and time commitments. For example, a day trading strategy involves opening and closing positions within a single trading day, taking advantage of small intraday movements in a currency pair’s price.

The forex market is extremely volatile, so a currency pair that moves up one week might go down the next. But, the majority of forex trading volume is concentrated in a handful of forex pairs like EUR/USD, USD/JPY, GBP/USD, AUD/USD and USD/CHF.

That’s because these pairs represent some of the most widely-circulated currencies and so they attract the most traders. This results in a greater amount of price movement as the balance between buyers and sellers constantly shifts.

How to get the best funded trading accounts?

Fully funded trading account

A forex trading job is recognized to be one of the most challenging jobs in the market due to the sheer of variables that need to be considered before implementing any decisions.

The forex market is extremely volatile, and there are very few alternatives offered to traders to accumulate funds for their account. However, you don’t have to worry about money when you get selected to trade with a funded trading account. That happens when you show great experience and skill in making profitable trades, along with the consistency of your trade.

If you show a proprietary trading firm that you are skilled and talented, and can be counted among the top forex traders, you will get the chance to join some of the best-funded proprietary funds in the market.

What are funded trading accounts at A proprietary forex fund?

A forex funded trading account at a proprietary forex fund is one of the main goals for all forex traders because that is the pinnacle of their industry. There are a lot of great proprietary forex funds that are offering traders the chance to showcase their talent and skill with a funded trading account. At the5ers proprietary firm, we offer traders the chance to elevate their trading career to the next level. We offer traders with everything they need to be successful in forex trading , if they prove their skills, and have a track record of being a successful trader.

How to choose the best funded trading accounts?

Here are some important points to understand about how to choose a funded trading account, which traders tend to get confused about, or that firms manipulate the way they present them to confuse traders:

It is important to analyze this point together with the possible account size.

Most companies will offer 60% to 80% percentage of the profits for the trader in 100K to 300K accounts.

The5ers gives up to 1.28 million accounts with a 50%-50% split. So you keep a little less percentage of the profits, in a significantly larger trading account.

Remember that when you are taking the very same winning performance, the actual money-earning potential is what matters and not the percentage split.

Payout and growing terms

The5ers is the only fund that actually pays every month, no minimum, and no maximum applied.

The5ers is the only fund that pays and at the same time saves your milestone progression at the same level!

Meaning you pull out money every month, and you don’t hold your growth rate.

With other companies, you have to choose between taking the profits or leaving them for growth.

Terms

The duration & phases of the time you spend on being evaluated are also interesting to compare.

Most companies have 2 phases of testing before real funding and in most cases, those phases happen on demo accounts.

The5ers has only 1 evaluation phase, and it is actually on a live trading account. So practically you are already being funded – only with 1/4th of the account, you will get once you succeed. And you get paid for the profits made during the evaluation by the 50% split share.

Most companies will ask you to make a 10% profit on your evaluation account, in one month! Although it is possible to achieve, this objective doesn’t suit long term strategies and promotes overleveraging. With the 5ers you need to make 6%-7% in a maximum period of 6 months.

Weekends and nights

Look if you are allowed to leave open trades overnight and over the weekends.

Most companies won’t allow it.

The5ers.Com allows overnight and over the weekend trades, which is crucial for long term traders.

Recurring fees

In some companies, you will have to pay an initial fee plus a monthly fee.

With the5ers, there are no monthly payments. To get evaluated you only need to pay a one-time enrollment fee.

How to get qualified for a funded trading account

There aren’t any special qualities that qualify you for a funded trading account, other than proving your skills. You must show consistent results in forex trading and prove that your trading strategy is profitable. There are plenty of traders that get good results, but it can also be a fluke win, and to qualify for a funded trading account, you must showcase consistently profitable trades.

Sign up to evaluate your trading

When you sign up to trade with some of the best forex proprietary funds in the market, your trading style is going to be evaluated by the firm first. You will have to pay for the signup fee, but other than that there are no additional costs to be in a forex funded account program.

After a few weeks in testing, you will be totally in the risk-free trading zone

Once you have passed the initial evaluation, you will be tested for a few weeks, so that the proprietary firm can get a good feel of your trading style. Once you pass those few weeks, you will enter the risk-free trading zone, which is when you will be given your own funded trading account.

Get paid to trade forex

After proving yourself in the forex market with consistently profitable trades, you will earn the right to get paid to trade in the forex market. This is the best step for your trading career, as it allows you with the chance to test yourself among the best traders that are currently trading in the market.

Develop your trading career from home

When you get the chance to work with a forex funded account, your trading career is on the rise. It is best to choose a remote proprietary trading firm to work with, like the5ers, since they offer traders the chance to develop their trading career from home. This additional flexibility allows traders to trade in the market at their own time, and from wherever they choose to trade from.

Get high capital to trade

Once you are in the forex funded account program, you must keep showcasing your skills as a forex trader to climb even higher up the ladder. If you show great results while forex trading, then you will get a funded trading account with even bigger capital, so you can trade more. Only the top forex traders get that chance, and only after they apply the risk management requirements of the proprietary firm.

You can trade any trading strategy

One of the primary benefits of trading with a funded trading account is that you can trade any style without any fear of your style being compromised. You can choose any style, from scalping, day trading, to long-term position holding, swing trading, fundamentals analysis, or technical analysis trading strategies.
