RISCOS DE NEGOCIAÇÃO DE INTERNET Existem riscos associados à utilização de um sistema de negociação de execução de negócios baseado na internet, incluindo, mas não limitado a, falha no hardware, software e conexão à internet. Uma vez que a FXCM não controla a potência do sinal, a sua recepção ou roteamento através da internet, a configuração do seu equipamento ou a confiabilidade da sua conexão, não podemos ser responsáveis ​​por falhas, distorções ou atrasos na comunicação ao negociar pela internet. A FXCM emprega sistemas de backup e planos de contingência para minimizar a possibilidade de falha no sistema, o que inclui permitir que os clientes troquem por telefone. NO DEALING MODELO DE EXECUÇÃO DE ESCRITÓRIO O FXCM fornece a execução de forex através de um processamento direto ou nenhum modelo de execução do Dealing Desk. Neste modelo, a FXCM transmite aos seus clientes os melhores preços que são fornecidos por um dos provedores de liquidez da FXCMs (que incluem bancos globais, instituições financeiras, corretores principais e outros fabricantes de mercado) sem margens. Em alguns casos, as contas dos clientes de certos intermediários estão sujeitas a uma marcação. Neste modelo, a FXCM não atua como um marcador de mercado em qualquer par de moedas. Como tal, a FXCM depende desses provedores externos para preços em moeda. Embora este modelo promova a eficiência e a concorrência para o preço do mercado, existem algumas limitações à liquidez que podem afetar a execução final do seu pedido. A FXCM tem como objetivo proporcionar aos clientes a melhor execução disponível e obter todos os pedidos preenchidos à taxa solicitada. No entanto, há momentos em que, devido a um aumento na volatilidade ou volume, as ordens podem estar sujeitas a uma derrapagem. O deslizamento ocorre com mais frequência durante eventos de notícias fundamentais ou períodos de liquidez limitada. Instâncias como rollover comercial (5pm EST) são um período conhecido em que a quantidade de liquidez tende a ser limitada, já que muitos provedores de liquidez liquidam as transações desse dia. Para obter mais informações sobre o fato de o rollover ocorrer, consulte a seção sobre lsquoRollover Costsrsquo. Durante períodos como estes, seu tipo de ordem, quantidade exigida e instruções de pedido específicas podem ter um impacto na execução geral que você recebe. Exemplos de instruções de ordem específicas incluem: Ordens Good Til Canceled (GTC) - Seu pedido inteiro será preenchido no próximo preço disponível no momento em que for recebido. Ordens imediatas ou canceladas (COI) - Todo ou parte do seu pedido será preenchido no próximo preço disponível com o montante restante cancelado se a liquidez não existir para preencher seu pedido imediatamente. Ordens Fill or Kill (FOK) - O pedido deve ser preenchido na íntegra ou não. A volatilidade no mercado pode criar condições em que as ordens são difíceis de executar. Por exemplo, o preço que você recebe na execução do seu pedido pode ser muitos pips longe do preço selecionado ou cotado devido ao movimento do mercado. Nesse cenário, o comerciante procura executar a um preço determinado, mas em uma fração de segundo, por exemplo, o mercado pode ter se afastado significativamente desse preço. A ordem dos comerciantes seria então preenchida no próximo preço disponível para essa ordem específica. Da mesma forma, dado o modelo da FXCMs No Dealing Desk para a execução de forex, existe uma liquidez suficiente para executar todas as negociações a qualquer preço. A FXCM fornece uma série de tipos de pedidos básicos e avançados para ajudar os clientes a mitigar o risco de execução. Uma maneira de mitigar o risco associado ao deslizamento é utilizar o recurso Market Range (Desvio máximo para usuários MT4) nas plataformas FXCMs. O recurso Market Range permite que os comerciantes especifiquem a quantidade de deslizamento potencial que estão dispostos a aceitar em uma ordem de mercado, definindo um intervalo. Zero indica que não é permitido nenhum deslizamento. Ao selecionar zero no Market Range, o comerciante solicita que sua ordem seja executada somente no preço selecionado ou cotado, e não em qualquer outro preço. Os comerciantes podem optar por aceitar uma gama mais ampla de deslizamento admissível para aumentar a probabilidade de ter suas ordens executadas. Nesse cenário, a ordem será preenchida com o melhor preço disponível dentro do intervalo especificado. Por exemplo, um cliente pode indicar que ele está disposto a ser preenchido dentro de 2 pips do preço solicitado. O sistema preencheria o cliente dentro do intervalo aceitável (neste caso, 2 pips) se existir liquidez suficiente. Se o pedido não puder ser preenchido dentro do intervalo especificado, o pedido não será preenchido. Por favor, note que as ordens do Market Range especificam apenas um intervalo negativo. Se uma taxa mais preferencial estiver disponível no momento da execução, os comerciantes não estão limitados pelo intervalo especificado para a quantidade de melhoria de preço positiva que eles podem receber. Além disso, quando desencadeada, as ordens paradas se tornam uma ordem de mercado disponível para execução no próximo preço de mercado disponível. As ordens de parada garantem a execução, mas não garantem um preço específico. Para ver mais informações sobre os tipos de pedidos na FXCM, visite: fxcmwhy-fxcmforex-executionorder-execution Durante as primeiras horas após a abertura, o mercado tende a ser mais fino do que o habitual até as sessões de mercado de Tóquio e Londres começarem. Esses mercados mais finos podem resultar em spreads mais amplos, pois há menos compradores e vendedores. Isto é em grande parte devido ao fato de que, durante as primeiras horas após a abertura, ainda é o fim de semana na maior parte do mundo. A liquidez também pode ser impactada em torno do rollover comercial (5PM EST), pois muitos de nossos múltiplos provedores de liquidez ficam momentaneamente indisponíveis para liquidar as transações dayrsquos, que também podem resultar em spreads mais amplos em torno desse tempo devido à falta de liquidez. Em mercados ilíquidos, os comerciantes podem ter dificuldade de entrar ou sair de posições ao preço solicitado, experimentar atrasos na execução e receber um preço na execução que é um número significativo de pips longe da sua taxa solicitada. Uma lista abrangente de spreads pode ser encontrada em fxcmaccountstrading-costs. Além do tipo de ordem, um comerciante deve considerar a disponibilidade de um par de moedas antes de tomar qualquer decisão de negociação. Como em todos os mercados financeiros, alguns instrumentos dentro desse mercado terão maior profundidade de liquidez do que outros. Uma ampla liquidez permite ao comerciante entrar ou sair de forma transparente, perto do imediato da execução e um deslizamento mínimo durante as condições normais do mercado. No entanto, certos pares de moedas têm mais mercados líquidos do que outros. Na FXCM, os seguintes são considerados exemplos de Moedas Exóticas que podem ter liquidez limitada: a FXCM tem como objetivo proporcionar aos clientes a melhor execução disponível e obter todos os pedidos preenchidos à taxa solicitada. No entanto, há momentos em que, devido ao aumento da volatilidade, as ordens podem estar sujeitas a uma derrapagem. O deslizamento ocorre com mais frequência durante eventos de notícias fundamentais ou períodos de alta volatilidade. Instâncias como rollover comercial (5pm EST) são um período conhecido em que a quantidade de liquidez tende a ser limitada, já que muitos provedores de liquidez liquidam as transações desse dia. Para obter mais informações sobre o fato de o rollover ocorrer, consulte a seção sobre custos de rolagem. Durante períodos como estes, seu tipo de ordem, quantidade exigida e instruções de pedido específicas podem ter um impacto na execução geral que você recebe. A volatilidade no mercado pode criar condições em que as ordens são difíceis de executar. Por exemplo, o preço que você recebe na execução do seu pedido pode ser muitos pips longe do preço selecionado ou cotado devido ao movimento do mercado. Nesse cenário, o comerciante procura executar a um preço determinado, mas em uma fração de segundo, por exemplo, o mercado pode ter se afastado significativamente desse preço.

A FXCM fornece uma série de tipos de pedidos básicos e avançados para ajudar os clientes a mitigar o risco de execução. Uma maneira de mitigar o risco associado ao deslizamento é utilizar o recurso Market Range (Desvio máximo para usuários MT4) nas plataformas FXCMs. O recurso Market Range permite que os comerciantes especifiquem a quantidade de deslizamento potencial que estão dispostos a aceitar em uma ordem de mercado, definindo um intervalo.

Se uma taxa mais preferencial estiver disponível no momento da execução, os comerciantes não estão limitados pelo intervalo especificado para a quantidade de melhoria de preço positiva que eles podem receber. Além disso, quando desencadeada, as ordens paradas se tornam uma ordem de mercado disponível para execução no próximo preço de mercado disponível. As ordens de parada garantem a execução, mas não garantem um preço específico. Para ver mais informações sobre os tipos de pedidos na FXCM, visite: fxcmwhy-fxcmforex-executionorder-execution Ao negociar Forex via FXCMs que administra o modelo de execução da mesa, a FXCM é a contraparte final dessas transações. Portanto, a FXCM está fornecendo toda liquidez para todos os preços das moedas que se estende aos seus clientes ao negociar como contraparte. A FXCM é capaz de disponibilizar a execução automática limitando o tamanho máximo do comércio de todas as ordens para 2 milhões por comércio. ATRASOS NA EXECUÇÃO Um atraso na execução pode ocorrer usando um modelo de mesa de negociação por várias razões, como problemas técnicos com a conexão à internet dos comerciantes com a FXCM ou com a falta de liquidez disponível para o par de moedas que o comerciante está tentando negociar. Devido à volatilidade inerente nos mercados, é imperativo que os comerciantes tenham uma conexão de internet funcional e confiável. Há circunstâncias em que a conexão de internet pessoal dos comerciantes pode não manter uma conexão constante com os servidores FXCM devido à falta de força do sinal de uma conexão sem fio ou dial-up. Uma perturbação no caminho de conexão às vezes pode interromper o sinal e desativar a Estação de Negociação FXCM, causando atrasos na transmissão de dados entre a estação de negociação e o servidor FXCM. Uma maneira de verificar sua conexão com o servidor FXCMs é fazer ping para o servidor do seu computador. Prazo: a conclusão da transação FXCM se esforça para processar ordens dentro de milissegundos no entanto, não há um intervalo de tempo exato para processamento de pedidos. Etapas: conclusão da transação Quando um cliente faz um pedido, o FXCM verifica pela primeira vez a conta com uma margem suficiente. O pedido é então comparável às cotações dos provedores de liquidez. Um pedido de hedge é enviado ao provedor de liquidez para execução. Finalmente, a ordem dos clientes é preenchida e as posições abertas são atualizadas. Exceções: conclusão da transação Pode haver exceções à transação típica, como atrasos devido ao processamento de ordens anormal ou a avarias com processos internos ou externos. Nesses casos, a FXCM notifica os clientes o mais rápido possível, dependendo da complexidade do problema. O objetivo do FXCM é notificar os clientes sobre esses tipos de exceções o mais rápido possível, mas o tempo de notificação às vezes depende da complexidade da questão em análise. Estação de troca: se o processamento anormal da ordem do mercado ocorrer, a ordem será destacada em vermelho e a coluna de status indicará executado ou processado, na janela de pedidos. Nesses casos, o pedido está em processo de execução, mas está pendente até que a FXCM receba confirmação do provedor de liquidez de que os preços cotados ainda estão disponíveis. Durante períodos de grande volume de negociação, é possível que uma fila de pedidos se formem. Esse aumento nas ordens recebidas às vezes pode criar condições em que há atraso dos provedores de liquidez na confirmação de determinados pedidos. Metatrader 4 (mt4): se o processamento anormal da ordem do mercado ocorrer, a janela do pedido permaneceria aberta na plataforma de negociação e refletiria o erro de processamento. Nesses casos, o pedido está em processo de execução, mas está pendente até que a FXCM receba confirmação do provedor de liquidez de que os preços cotados ainda estão disponíveis. Durante períodos de grande volume de negociação, é possível que uma fila de pedidos se formem. Esse aumento nas ordens recebidas às vezes pode criar condições em que há atraso dos provedores de liquidez na confirmação de determinados pedidos. ORDENS DE RESTAURAÇÃO A volatilidade do mercado cria condições que dificultam a execução de pedidos ao preço determinado devido a um volume extremamente elevado de pedidos. No momento em que as ordens podem ser executadas, o preço da bidask no qual o FXCMs Trading Desk está disposto a assumir uma posição pode ser vários pips. Nos casos em que o pool de liquidez não é suficientemente grande para preencher uma ordem de Market Range, a ordem não será executada. Para ordens de limite de entrada ou limite, o pedido não seria executado, mas reiniciou até que a ordem possa ser preenchida. Lembre-se, ambas as encomendas Limite Entry e Limit garantem o preço, mas não garantem a execução. Dependendo da estratégia de negociação subjacente e das condições de mercado subjacentes, os comerciantes podem estar mais preocupados com a execução em relação ao preço recebido. SPREADS WIDENED Pode haver instâncias em que os spreads se alargam para além do spread típico. Os spreads são uma função da liquidez do mercado e em períodos de liquidez limitada, no mercado aberto, ou durante o rollover às 5:00 PM ET, os spreads podem se ampliar em resposta à incerteza na direção dos preços ou a uma queda na volatilidade do mercado ou falta Da liquidez do mercado. Não é incomum ver os spreads se expandirem particularmente em torno de rollover. O rolamento comercial é tipicamente um período muito silencioso no mercado, já que o dia útil em Nova York acabou de terminar, e ainda existem algumas horas antes do início do novo dia útil em Tóquio. Ser consciente desses padrões e levá-los em consideração ao negociar com ordens abertas ou colocar novos negócios em torno desses tempos pode melhorar sua experiência comercial. Isso pode ocorrer durante os eventos de notícias e os spreads podem se ampliar substancialmente para compensar a tremenda volatilidade no mercado. Os spreads alargados só podem durar alguns segundos ou até alguns minutos. A FXCM encoraja fortemente os comerciantes a utilizar cautela ao negociar em torno de eventos de notícias e estar sempre atento ao patrimônio da conta, margem utilizável e exposição ao mercado. Os spreads ampliados podem afetar adversamente todas as posições de uma conta, incluindo posições cobertas (discutidas abaixo). ORDENSES DE SUSPENSÃO Durante períodos de alto volume, podem ocorrer pedidos de suspensão. Esta é uma condição em que um pedido está em processo de execução, mas a execução ainda não foi confirmada. A ordem será destacada em vermelho e a coluna de status indicará executado ou processando, na janela de pedidos. Nesses casos, a ordem está em processo de execução, mas está pendente. Durante períodos de grande volume de negociação, é possível que uma fila de pedidos se formem. Esse aumento nas ordens recebidas pode às vezes criar condições em que há atraso na confirmação de determinados pedidos. Dependendo do tipo de ordem colocada, os resultados podem variar. No caso de uma ordem de Intervalo de mercado que não pode ser preenchida dentro do intervalo especificado, ou se o atraso foi passado, a ordem não será executada. No caso de uma ordem no mercado, todas as tentativas serão feitas para preencher a ordem no próximo preço disponível no mercado. Em ambas as situações, a coluna de status na janela de pedidos normalmente indicará executado ou processado. O comércio simplesmente levará alguns minutos para se mudar para a janela de posições abertas. Dependendo do tipo de ordem, a posição pode, de fato, ter sido executada, e o atraso é simplesmente devido ao tráfego pesado de internet. Tenha em mente que só é necessário inserir qualquer pedido uma vez. Várias entradas para a mesma ordem podem atrasar ou bloquear o computador ou, inadvertidamente, abrir posições indesejadas. Se, em qualquer momento, você não conseguir acessar a Estação de Negociação da FXCM para administrar sua conta, você pode ligar para o Trading Desk diretamente no 1 212-201-7300. Veja uma lista completa de números de contatos internacionais. GREYED OUT PRICING Greyed out pricing é uma condição que ocorre quando a FXCMs Trading Desk não está ativamente fazendo um mercado para determinados pares de moedas e liquidez, portanto, diminui. FXCM não intencionalmente cinza os preços no entanto, às vezes, um aumento severo na diferença do spread pode ocorrer devido a um anúncio que tem um efeito dramático no mercado que limita a liquidez. Essa graying fora dos preços ou spreads aumentados pode resultar em chamadas de margem em uma conta de comerciante. Quando um pedido é colocado em um par de moedas afetado por preços acinzentados, o PL desativará temporariamente até zero até que o par tenha um preço negociável e o sistema pode calcular o saldo da PL. ROLLOVER COSTS Rollover é o fechamento e abertura simultânea de uma posição em um ponto particular durante o dia, a fim de evitar a liquidação e a entrega da moeda comprada. Este termo também se refere aos juros cobrados ou aplicados a uma conta de comerciante para posições ocupadas durante a noite, o que significa depois das 5 p. m. ET em plataformas FXCMs. O tempo em que as posições estão fechadas e reabertas, e a taxa de rolagem é debitada ou creditada, é comumente referido como Trade Rollover (TRO). É importante notar que as taxas de rolagem serão maiores do que as acumulações de rolagem. Quando todas as posições são cobertas em uma conta, embora a posição líquida global possa ser plana, a conta ainda pode sustentar perdas devido ao spread que ocorre no momento em que ocorre o rollover. Spreads durante o rollover pode ser mais amplo quando comparado a outros períodos de tempo devido a FXCMs Trading Desk momentaneamente se desligando para liquidar as transações do dia. FLUCTUAÇÕES DE TAXA DE CÂMBIO (CUSTOS DE PIP) As flutuações da taxa de câmbio, ou os custos de pip, são definidos como o valor dado a um movimento de pip para um par de moeda particular. Este custo é o valor da moeda que será ganho ou perdido com cada movimento de pip da taxa de pares de moeda e será denominado na denominação de moeda da conta na qual o par está sendo negociado. Nas plataformas FXCM, o custo de pip para todos os pares de moedas pode ser encontrado selecionando Exibir, seguido de Repetição de vistas e, em seguida, clicando em Tarifas simples para aplicar a marca de seleção ao lado. Se as Taxas Simples já tiverem uma marca de seleção ao lado dela, ver as taxas de negociação na visualização simples é tão fácil como clicar na guia Taxas de Negociação Simples na janela de taxas de negociação. Uma vez visível, a exibição de taxas simples exibirá o custo do pip no lado direito da janela. SPREADS INVERTIDOS Ao negociar Forex com o modelo de execução da mesa de negociação da FXCM, todos os preços selecionáveis ​​são fornecidos pela nossa mesa de negociação. O FXCMs Trading Desk pode confiar em várias fontes de terceiros para os preços que disponibiliza aos clientes. No caso de um preço manifesto (não citado) nos ser fornecido de uma fonte em que geralmente confiamos, todas as operações executadas nesse preço manifesto (não citado) podem ser revogadas, já que o preço manifesto (falhado em falso) não é representativo do mercado genuíno atividade. Estes preços manifestos (misquoted) podem levar a uma inversão na propagação. TRADING DESK HOURS A mesa de negociação abre aos domingos entre as 5:00 da tarde ET e 5:15 PM ET. A mesa de negociação fecha as sextas-feiras às 4:55 PM ET. Por favor, note que as encomendas anteriores podem ser preenchidas até às 5:00 da tarde. ET e que os comerciantes colocam trocas entre as 4:55 p. m. E 5:00 p. m. ET pode não conseguir cancelar pedidos pendentes de execução. No caso de uma Ordem de Mercado GTC ser enviada diretamente ao fechamento do mercado, existe a possibilidade de que ela não seja executada até o mercado dominical aberto. Tenha cuidado ao negociar em torno do mercado da Sexta-feira e fator toda a informação descrita acima em qualquer decisão de negociação. Os horários de abertura ou de fechamento podem ser alterados pelo Trading Desk, porque ele depende de preços oferecidos por fontes de terceiros. Fora dessas horas, a maioria dos principais bancos mundiais e centros financeiros estão fechados. A falta de liquidez e volume durante o fim de semana impede a execução e a entrega de preços. PREÇOS ACTUALIZADOS ANTES DO ABRIR Pouco antes do aberto, o Trading Desk atualiza taxas para refletir o preço atual do mercado em preparação para o aberto. Neste momento, os negócios e encomendas realizadas durante o fim de semana estão sujeitos à execução. As cotações durante este período não são executáveis ​​para novos pedidos de mercado. Após a abertura, os comerciantes podem fazer novos negócios e cancelar ou modificar ordens existentes. Os preços de abertura dos domingos podem ou não ser os mesmos que os preços de fechamento das sextas-feiras. Às vezes, os preços no domingo aberto estão perto de onde os preços estavam no fechamento de sexta-feira. Em outras ocasiões, pode haver uma diferença significativa entre as sextas-feiras e os domingos abertos. O mercado pode diminuir se houver um anúncio de notícias significativo ou um evento econômico que altere a forma como o mercado vê o valor de uma moeda. Os comerciantes que ocupam posições ou ordens durante o fim de semana devem estar totalmente confortáveis ​​com o potencial do mercado para o fosso. EXECUÇÃO DE ORDEM As ordens de limite geralmente são preenchidas ao preço solicitado ou melhor. Se o preço solicitado (ou um preço melhor) não estiver disponível no mercado, o pedido não será preenchido. Se o preço solicitado de uma ordem Stop for alcançado no mercado aberto no domingo, a ordem se tornará uma ordem de mercado. As ordens de limite de entrada são preenchidas da mesma forma que os pedidos de limite. As ordens Stop Entry são preenchidas da mesma maneira que Stops. RISCO DE FIM DE SEMANA Comerciantes que temem que os mercados possam ser extremamente voláteis durante o fim de semana, que o risco possa ocorrer, ou que o potencial de risco de fim de semana não seja apropriado para seu estilo de negociação, pode simplesmente fechar ordens e posições antes do fim de semana. É imperativo que os comerciantes que ocupam posições abertas durante o fim de semana entendam que existe potencial para grandes eventos econômicos e anúncios de notícias para afetar o valor de suas posições subjacentes. Dada a volatilidade expressa nos mercados, não é incomum que os preços sejam uma série de pips no mercado aberto a partir do fechamento do mercado. Nós encorajamos todos os comerciantes a levar isso em consideração antes de tomar uma decisão comercial. MARGIN CALLS AND CLOSE OUTS As chamadas de margem são ativadas quando sua margem utilizável cai abaixo de zero. Isso ocorre quando suas perdas flutuantes reduzem o patrimônio da sua conta para um nível inferior ao seu requisito de margem. Portanto, o resultado de qualquer chamada de margem é liquidação posterior, a menos que especificado de outra forma. A idéia de negociação de margem é que sua margem atua como um depósito de boa fé para garantir o maior valor nocional da sua posição. A negociação de margem permite que os comerciantes ocupem uma posição muito maior do que o valor real da conta. A FXCMs Trading Station possui capacidades de gerenciamento de margem, que permitem o uso de alavancagem. Claro, a negociação na margem vem com o risco, pois a alavanca pode funcionar contra você tanto quanto isso funciona para você. Se o patrimônio da conta cai abaixo dos requisitos de margem, a FXCM Trading Station disparará uma ordem para fechar todas as posições abertas. Quando as posições foram superadas ou as perdas de negociação são incorridas até o ponto em que a equidade insuficiente existe para manter as posições abertas atuais e a margem utilizável das contas cai abaixo de zero, uma chamada de margem resultará e todas as posições abertas serão fechadas (liquidadas). Lembre-se de que, quando a margem útil das contas cair abaixo de zero, todas as posições abertas são acionadas para fechar. O processo de liquidação é projetado para ser inteiramente eletrônico. Embora o recurso de chamada de margem seja projetado para fechar posições quando o patrimônio da conta cai abaixo dos requisitos de margem, pode haver casos em que a liquidez não existe na taxa de chamada de margem exata. Como resultado, o patrimônio da conta pode cair abaixo dos requisitos de margem no momento em que os pedidos são preenchidos, até o ponto em que o patrimônio da conta se torne negativo. A FXCM recomenda que os comerciantes usem as ordens Stop para limitar o risco negativo ao invés de usar uma chamada de margem como uma parada final. É aconselhável que os clientes mantenham a quantidade apropriada de margem em suas contas em todos os momentos. Os requisitos de margem podem ser alterados com base no tamanho da conta, posições abertas simultâneas, estilo de negociação, condições de mercado e a critério da FXCM. METATRADER 4 Tenha em atenção que os usuários do MT4 estão sujeitos a diferentes procedimentos de chamada de margem. Quando uma chamada de margem é desencadeada na conta, as posições individuais serão liquidadas até que o capital restante seja suficiente para suportar a (s) posição (s) existente (s). Ao decidir quais posições serão individualmente liquidadas, a maior posição perdedora será fechada primeiro durante a liquidação. GRÁFICO PREÇO VS. PREÇOS EXIBIDOS NA PLATAFORMA É importante fazer uma distinção entre os preços indicativos (apresentados em gráficos) e os preços negociáveis ​​(exibidos nas plataformas, como o Trading Station eo MetaTrader 4). Citações indicativas são aquelas que oferecem uma indicação dos preços no mercado e a taxa em que estão mudando. Esses preços são derivados de uma série de contribuidores, como bancos e empresas de compensação, que podem ou não refletir onde os provedores de liquidez da FXCM estão fazendo preços. Os preços indicativos são geralmente muito próximos dos preços de negociação, mas eles apenas dão uma indicação de onde o mercado está. As cotações executáveis ​​garantem uma melhor execução e, portanto, um custo de transação reduzido. Como o mercado forex local não possui uma única central de câmbio, onde todas as transações são conduzidas, cada negociante forex pode citar preços ligeiramente diferentes. Portanto, todos os preços exibidos por um provedor de gráficos de terceiros, que não empregam os preços dos preços do mercado, refletirão preços indicativos e não necessariamente preços de negociação reais, onde os negócios podem ser executados. PLATAFORMAS DE NEGOCIAÇÃO MÓVEL Há uma série de riscos inerentes ao uso da tecnologia de negociação móvel, como a duplicação de instruções de ordem, a latência nos preços fornecidos e outras questões que são resultado da conectividade móvel. Os preços exibidos na plataforma móvel são apenas uma indicação das taxas executáveis ​​e podem não refletir o preço real executado da ordem. O Mobile TS II utiliza circuitos de rede de comunicação pública para transmissão de mensagens. A FXCM não será responsável por todas e quaisquer circunstâncias em que você experimente um atraso na cotação do preço ou uma incapacidade de troca causada por problemas de transmissão de circuitos de rede ou quaisquer outros problemas fora do controle direto da FXCM. Os problemas de transmissão incluem, mas não estão limitados à força do sinal móvel, latência celular ou quaisquer outros problemas que possam surgir entre você e qualquer provedor de serviços de Internet, provedor de serviços de telefone ou qualquer outro provedor de serviços. É altamente recomendável que os clientes se familiarizem com a funcionalidade da FXCM Mobile Trading Station antes de gerenciar uma conta ao vivo via dispositivo portátil. TS APLICAÇÃO DA MESA MÓVEL A plataforma da FXCMs Trading Station foi modificada para rodar em dispositivos móveis e tablets. A plataforma móvel para tablets é chamada Trading Station Mobile e possui os mesmos recursos comerciais que a Trading Station Web. Os mesmos riscos de conectividade descritos acima em relação ao nosso Mobile TS II se aplicam para uso com qualquer aplicativo disponibilizado para a comercialização de tablets. FXCM MetaTrader 4 Execução Os indivíduos devem analisar cuidadosamente as informações abaixo, que detalham as diferenças em relação à execução, características de negociação e configurações de plataforma específicas para a plataforma FXCM MT4. Características e Configurações Ordens de execução comercial para abrir e fechar negócios, bem como tomar ordens de lucro (TP) executar preencher ou matar. Essas ordens só são executadas se puderem preencher a totalidade ao preço solicitado. Esses pedidos não podem ser divididos e preenchidos a preços múltiplos. Caso a liquidez suficiente não esteja imediatamente disponível para executar uma ordem Fill ou Kill na sua totalidade, a execução cessa. Pedidos Stop Loss (SL) e pedidos enviados devido à chamada de margem, não execute Fill or Kill. Essas encomendas completam a totalidade ao mesmo preço no entanto, a execução não cessará se a liquidez suficiente não estiver disponível imediatamente. A execução continuará até que um preço esteja disponível para preencher a ordem completa. O número máximo de pedidos abertos é limitado a 500 pedidos individuais por conta. Essa restrição inclui tanto pedidos abertos quanto pedidos pendentes. A plataforma MT4 exibirá uma mensagem de erro se os comerciantes tentarem abrir mais de 500 pedidos individuais. Stop Loss and Take Profits estão isentos desta restrição. O MT4 só pode executar uma ordem por atualização de preço por símbolo por conta. Por exemplo, se uma conta tiver duas ordens de parada na mesma taxa e o mercado apenas negociar em ou além desse ponto de parada uma vez, apenas uma das ordens de parada será executada. A segunda parada não será acionada a menos que haja uma atualização de preço secundário em ou além desse nível de parada. Chamada de Margem A política de chamadas de margem para as contas do FTXMM ​​MetaTrader 4 é diferente de todas as outras contas do FXCM. Quando ocorre uma chamada de margem, as negociações serão fechadas uma a uma até que o nível de margem seja superior a 95. Cenário 1 O Cliente A tem as seguintes posições abertas em dois pares de moedas diferentes quando ocorre uma chamada de margem. Posição 1: EURUSD comprado em 1º de janeiro Posição 2: GBPAUD comprado em 2 de janeiro No momento da chamada de margem, a coluna de lucro mostra: neste exemplo, a plataforma MetaTrader 4 fechará o comércio com a maior perda primeiro - Posição 2. Porque Cada posição está em um par de moedas diferentes, a contabilidade FIFO não afeta a ordem em que as posições se fecham. Cenário 2 O Cliente B tem as seguintes posições abertas no par de moedas EURUSD quando ocorrer uma chamada de margem. Posição 1: EURUSD comprado em 1º de janeiro Posição 2: EURUSD comprado em 2 de janeiro No momento da chamada de margem, a coluna Lucro mostra: Como ambas as negociações estão no mesmo par de moedas, a plataforma MetaTrader 4 seguirá as regras de contabilidade FIFO. A posição 1 será fechada primeiro, embora não seja a maior posição perdedora. Cenário 3 O Cliente C tem as seguintes posições abertas quando ocorre uma chamada de margem. Posição 1: EURUSD comprado em 1º de janeiro Posição 2: GBPAUD comprou em 2 de janeiro Posição 3: EURUSD comprado em 3 de janeiro No momento da chamada de margem, a coluna Lucro mostra: neste exemplo, o maior comércio perdedor é a Posição 3. No entanto, Não será o primeiro comércio fechado, porque isso causaria um conflito FIFO com a Posição 1. A Posição 1 foi aberta primeiro e, devido à contabilização FIFO, ela deve fechar antes da Posição 3. No entanto, a Posição 2 tem uma perda maior do que a Posição 1, então Posição 2 Fechará primeiro (não há conflitos FIFO entre esses negócios). Após a Posição 2 fechar, se o Nível de Margem ainda estiver abaixo de 95, a Posição 3 será a maior posição perdedora. However, Position 3 cannot close before Position 1 due to FIFO accounting. So Position 1 will close second followed by Position 3. Scenario 4 Client D has the following positions when a margin call occurs. Position 1: GBPAUD bought on January 1st Position 2: EURUSD bought on January 2nd Position 3: EURUSD bought on January 3rd At the time of margin call, the Profit column shows: In this example, position 1 is the largest losing trade and there is no FIFO conflict. Therefore, it will be closed first. Next, if Margin Level is still below 95, another position will close. Position 3 has a larger loss than Position 2, but Position 2 was opened first. The platform will follow FIFO accounting rules and close Position 2 next. Interest rates are not displayed on the MetaTrader 4 Platform however, traders will pay or accrue interest in accordance with the current FXCM rates. To obtain the rollover rates traders can view them on the FXCM Trading Station II platform or call FXCM customer service for current rates. Please be advised that interest rates are provided to FXCM by multiple liquidity providers. Every effort is made to display rollover rates one day in advance on the FXCM Trading Station II. However, during times of extreme market volatility, rates may change intraday. Any positions that are open at 5 p. m. ET sharp are considered to be held overnight, and are subject to rollover. A position opened at 5:01 p. m. is not subject to rollover until the next day, while a position opened at 4:59 p. m. is subject to rollover at 5 p. m. ET. Expert Advisor Expert Advisors (EA) are automated trading tools that can perform all or part of a trading strategy. While FXCM offers proprietary EAs, there are others developed by third parties. FXCM does not vouch for the accuracy or reliability provided by the EAs not in its control. Traders utilizing an EA do so at their own risk. Additionally, many EAs employ the use of micro lots and do not account for fractional pip pricing. On the FXCM MetaTrader 4 platform the smallest lot size increment is 1k and fractional pips are used. Prior to trading, please contact your EA provider to discuss the lot sizes used in the program and any potential issues that may arise from fractional pip pricing. Max Deviation With FXCM MetaTrader 4, all orders execute using instant execution. This MetaTrader 4 execution type enables the maximum deviation (max deviation) feature. The maximum deviation feature was designed to control slippage - both negative and positive - in the following way. When creating an order, a number is specified in tenths of a pip (ge0) in the max deviation field. This number is the maximum amount of slippage the order can receive. If the market price moves beyond this amount while the order is executing, the order will cancel automatically. This is how the maximum deviation feature was designed to function. FXCM trading policy allows for unlimited positive slippage on all order types. Therefore, FXCM has developed a way to override the restriction that the maximum deviation feature places on positive slippage. All orders placed on the FXCM MetaTrader 4 platform fill with the greatest amount of positive slippage possible. In the event that an order fills with positive slippage beyond the maximum deviation . the platform logs a message in the Journal tab. The message has the following format: - Positive Slippage - . is the positive slippage the order received beyond the maximum deviation. If the market price moves negatively beyond the maximum deviation, the order cancels automatically. When this occurs, an Off Quotes message is displayed. This is a standard MetaTrader 4 message notifying the user that an order canceled because the market price deviated beyond the order setting. Please note: dependent upon market conditions, a lower maximum deviation amount can increase the likelihood that an order will be rejected due to the market price moving outside of the maximum deviation. Net Stops and Limits The FXCM MetaTrader 4 platform uses Net Stops and Net Limits. When you have multiple positions open in the same currency pair, a stop loss (SL) or take profit (TP) functions as a Net Stop or a Net Limit. Changing the stop loss or take profit price on any individual trade overrides all existing SL and TP prices in the same currency pair. Pending Orders You cannot use a pending order to close a trade or a portion of it. Pending orders can only be used to open new trades. For example, assume that an account is long 0.2 EURUSD. A trader then creates a pending order to sell 0.1 EURUSD. If the pending order price is reached, the order will trigger for execution. However, because the pending order is attempting to trade in the opposite direction of the existing long trade, the pending order will automatically cancel, leaving the long trade unaffected. When closing a trade, MetaTrader 4 users can use stop loss and take profit orders as an alternative to pending orders. Cross-Platform Compatibility FXCM MetaTrader 4 login credentials grant a user with access to the FXCM Trading Station platforms. Therefore, FXCM MetaTrader 4 account holders can place and manage trades and orders through the FXCM Trading Station platforms. Account details for retail clients (e. g. orders, trades, PL, margin, equity) will match on all of these platforms and their statement of records. However, please note that some functionality available on the FXCM Trading Station platforms may not be available on the FXCM MetaTrader 4 platform. FXCM MetaTrader 4 FXCM MetaTrader 4 allows for order sizes up to 50 million per trade. Os comerciantes têm a capacidade de trocar tamanhos incrementais (múltiplos pedidos de 50 milhões para o mesmo par). The FXCM MetaTrader 4 Platform does not show pip costs. The potential exists for variations in pricing displayed between servers. Essas diferenças não têm impacto nos preços disponíveis para execução, mas podem afetar os preços usados ​​para desencadear ordens de repouso. FXCM MetaTrader 4 Server Information Under rare circumstances it may be necessary to type in a server address when logging into FXCM MetaTrader 4. A list of FXCMs MT4 server names and addresses has been provided below. So long as you download FXCM MetaTrader 4 here and install it on your computer or VPS, you will not need these server addresses. If you need to enter the server address when logging in, be sure to use the one that corresponds to the server name that your account is assigned to. As an example, if your accounts server name is MT4USDREAL01, you would use mt4r01.fxcorporate:443. MetaTrader 4 Live Server Timeframe: completion of transaction FXCM endeavours to process orders within milliseconds however, there is no exact time frame for order processing. Stages: completion of transaction With DD Execution, when a client makes an order, FXCM can match against quotes from liquidity providers. A hedge order can be sent to the liquidity provider for execution. Finally, the clients order is filled and openclosed positions are updated. With DD Execution, FXCM can hedge an order against current exposure or fill it in with our own liquidity book. Exceções: conclusão da transação Pode haver exceções à transação típica, como atrasos devido ao processamento de ordens anormal ou a avarias com processos internos ou externos. Nesses casos, a FXCM notifica os clientes o mais rápido possível, dependendo da complexidade do problema. O objetivo do FXCM é notificar os clientes sobre esses tipos de exceções o mais rápido possível, mas o tempo de notificação às vezes depende da complexidade da questão em análise. Metatrader 4 (mt4): If abnormal market order processing occurs, the order window would remain open on the trading platform and reflect processing error. In these instances, the order is in the process of being executed, but is pending until FXCM receives confirmation from the liquidity provider that the quoted prices are still available. During periods of heavy trading volume, it is possible that a queue of orders will form. Esse aumento nas ordens recebidas às vezes pode criar condições em que há atraso dos provedores de liquidez na confirmação de determinados pedidos. Order Placement via Metatrader 4(Mt4) Account Type: If abnormal market order processing occurs when multiple closing orders for the same currency pair are submitted simultaneously, the orders may be cancelled in part or entirety because MT4 accounts use the Fill or Kill default order type and adhere to FIFO execution, regardless of which platform is used for trading.

The market for these currencies is very illiquid, with liquidity being maintained and provided by one, or few external sources. These liquidity concerns include but are not limited to, the inability to exit positions based on lack of market activity, differences in the prices quoted and final execution received, or a delay in execution while a counterparty for your specific transaction is identified. With these considerations in mind it is imperative that any trader factor this into any trading decision. For this reason we strongly encourage all traders to utilize advanced order types to mitigate these risks. DELAYS IN EXECUTION Delays in execution may occur using FXCMs No Dealing Desk forex execution model for various reasons, such as technical issues with the traders internet connection to FXCM a delay in order confirmation from a liquidity provider or by a lack of available liquidity for the currency pair that the trader is attempting to trade. Due to inherent volatility in the markets, it is imperative that traders have a working and reliable internet connection. There are circumstances when the traders personal internet connection may not be maintaining a constant connection with the FXCM servers due to a lack of signal strength from a wireless or dialup connection. A disturbance in the connection path can sometimes interrupt the signal and disable the FXCM Trading Station, causing delays in the transmission of data between the trading station and the FXCM server. One way to check your internet connection with FXCMs server is to ping the server from your computer. TIMEFRAME: COMPLETION OF TRANSACTION FXCM endeavours to process orders within milliseconds however, there is no exact time frame for order processing. STAGES: COMPLETION OF TRANSACTION When a client makes an order, FXCM first verifies the account for sufficient margin. O pedido é então comparável às cotações dos provedores de liquidez. Um pedido de hedge é enviado ao provedor de liquidez para execução. Finally, the clients order is filled and openclosed positions are updated. EXCEPTIONS: COMPLETION OF TRANSACTION There may be exceptions to the typical transaction, such as delays due to abnormal order processing or malfunctions with internal or external processes. Nesses casos, a FXCM notifica os clientes o mais rápido possível, dependendo da complexidade do problema. O objetivo do FXCM é notificar os clientes sobre esses tipos de exceções o mais rápido possível, mas o tempo de notificação às vezes depende da complexidade da questão em análise. Trading station . If abnormal market order processing occurs, the order will be highlighted in red, and the status column will indicate executed or processing, in the orders window. In these instances, the order is in the process of being executed, but is pending until FXCM receives confirmation from the liquidity provider that the quoted prices are still available. During periods of heavy trading volume, it is possible that a queue of orders will form. Esse aumento nas ordens recebidas às vezes pode criar condições em que há atraso dos provedores de liquidez na confirmação de determinados pedidos. Metatrader 4 (mt4) . If abnormal market order processing occurs, the order window would remain open on the trading platform and reflect processing error. In these instances, the order is in the process of being executed, but is pending until FXCM receives confirmation from the liquidity provider that the quoted prices are still available. During periods of heavy trading volume, it is possible that a queue of orders will form. Esse aumento nas ordens recebidas às vezes pode criar condições em que há atraso dos provedores de liquidez na confirmação de determinados pedidos. RESET ORDERS Market volatility creates conditions that make it difficult to execute orders at the given price due to an extremely high volume of orders. By the time orders are able to be executed, the bidask price at which a liquidity provider is willing to take a position may be several pips away. In cases where the liquidity pool is not large enough to fill a Market Range order, the order will not be executed. For Limit Entry or Limit orders, the order would not be executed but instead reset until the order can be filled. Remember, both Limit Entry and Limit orders guarantee price but do not guarantee execution. Depending on the underlying trading strategy and the underlying market conditions traders may be more concerned with execution versus the price received. WIDENED SPREADS There may be instances when spreads widen beyond the typical spread. Spreads are a function of market liquidity and in periods of limited liquidity, at market open, or during rollover at 5:00 PM ET, spreads may widen in response to uncertainty in the direction of prices, an uptick in market volatility, or lack of market liquidity. It is not uncommon to see spreads widen particularly around rollover. Trade rollover is typically a very quiet period in the market, since the business day in New York has just ended, and there are still a few hours before the new business day begins in Tokyo. Being cognizant of these patterns and taking them into consideration while trading with open orders or placing new trades around these times can improve your trading experience. This may occur during news events and spreads may widen substantially in order to compensate for the tremendous amount of volatility in the market. The widened spreads may only last a few seconds or as long as a few minutes. FXCM strongly encourages traders to utilize caution when trading around news events and always be aware of their account equity, usable margin and market exposure. Widened spreads can adversely affect all positions in an account including hedged positions (discussed below). HANGING ORDERS During periods of high volume, hanging orders may occur. This is a condition where an order is in the process of executing but execution has not yet been confirmed. The order will be highlighted in red, and the status column will indicate executed or processing, in the orders window. In these instances, the order is in the process of being executed, but is pending until FXCM receives confirmation from the liquidity provider that the quoted prices is still available. During periods of heavy trading volume, it is possible that a queue of orders will form. Esse aumento nas ordens recebidas às vezes pode criar condições em que há atraso dos provedores de liquidez na confirmação de determinados pedidos. Depending on the type of order placed, outcomes may vary. In the case of a Market Range order that cannot be filled within the specified range, or if the delay has passed, the order will not be executed. In the case of an At Market order, every attempt will be made to fill the order at the next available price in the market. In both situations, the status column in the orders window will typically indicate executed or processing. The trade will simply take a few moments to move to the open positions window. Depending upon the order type, the position may in fact have been executed, and the delay is simply due to heavy internet traffic. Keep in mind that it is only necessary to enter any order once. Multiple entries for the same order may slow or lock your computer or inadvertently open unwanted positions. If at any time you are unable to access the FXCM Trading Station to manage your account, you may call the Trading Desk directly at 1 212-201-7300. View a full list of international contact numbers. GREYED OUT PRICING Greyed out pricing is a condition that occurs when forex liquidity providers that supply pricing to FXCM are not actively making a market for particular currency pairs and liquidity therefore decreases. FXCM does not intentionally grey out prices however, at times, a severe increase in the difference of the spread may occur due to a loss of connectivity with a provider or due to an announcement that has a dramatic effect on the market that limits liquidity. Such greying out of prices or increased spreads may result in margin calls on a traders account. When an order is placed on a currency pair affected by greyed out prices, the PL will temporarily flash to zero until the pair has a tradable price and the system can calculate the PL balance. The ability to hedge allows a trader to hold both buy and sell positions in the same currency pair simultaneously. Traders have the ability to enter the market without choosing a particular direction for a currency pair. Although hedging may mitigate or limit future losses it does not prevent the account from being subjected to further losses altogether. In the forex market a trader is able to fully hedge by quantity but not by price. This is because of the difference between the buy and sell prices, or the spread. Effective, 02 December 2012, FXCM traders will be required to put up margin for one side (the larger side) of a hedged position. Margin requirements can be monitored at all times in the simple dealing rates window. While the ability to hedge is an appealing feature, traders should be aware of the following factors that may affect hedged positions. Diminishing Margin A margin call may occur even when an account is fully hedged, since spreads may widen, causing the remaining margin in the account to diminish. Should the remaining margin be insufficient to maintain any open positions, the account may sustain a margin call, closing out any open positions in the account. Although maintaining a long and short position may give the trader the impression that his exposure to the markets movement is limited, if insufficient available margin exists and spreads widen for any period of time, it may certainly result in a margin call on all positions. ROLLOVER COSTS Rollover is the simultaneous closing and opening of a position at a particular point during the day in order to avoid the settlement and delivery of the purchased currency. This term also refers to the interest either charged or applied to a traders account for positions held overnight, meaning after 5 p. m. ET on FXCMs Platforms. The time at which positions are closed and reopened, and the rollover fee is debited or credited, is commonly referred to as Trade Rollover (TRO). It is important to note that rollover charges will be higher than rollover accruals. When all positions are hedged in an account, although the overall net position may be flat, the account can still sustain losses due to the spread that occurs at the time rollover occurs. Spreads during rollover may be wider when compared to other time periods because of liquidity providers momentarily coming offline to settle the days transactions. Please manage positions accordingly around rollover and understand the implications of spreads widening in regard to execution with existingopen positions or new positionsorders. EXCHANGE RATE FLUCTUATIONS (PIP COSTS) Exchange rate fluctuations, or pip costs, are defined as the value given to a pip movement for a particular currency pair. This cost is the currency amount that will be gained or lost with each pip movement of the currency pairs rate and will be denominated in the currency denomination of the account in which the pair is being traded. On the FXCM Platforms, the pip cost for all currency pairs can be found by selecting View, followed by Dealing Views, and then by clicking Simple Rates to apply the checkmark next to it. If Simple Rates already has a check mark next to it, viewing the dealing rates in the simple view is as easy as clicking the Simple Dealing Rates tab in the dealing rates window. Once visible, the simple rates view will display the pip cost on the right-hand side of the window. INVERTED SPREADS When you trade forex with FXCM using a No Dealing Desk execution model, you are trading on price feeds that are being provided by multiple liquidity providers, plus FXCMs mark-up. In rare cases, these feed can be disrupted. This may only last for a moment, but when it does, spreads become inverted. During these rare occasions, FXCM advises that clients avoid placing At Market orders. While it may be tempting to place a free trade, keep in mind that the prices are not real and your actual fill may be many pips away from the displayed price. In the event that trades are executed at rates not actually offered by FXCMs liquidity providers, FXCM reserves the right to reverse such trades, as they are not considered valid trades. By placing Market Range orders or not trading during these moments, traders can avoid the risk associated with the above scenarios. HOLIDAYWEEKEND EXECUTION TRADING DESK HOURS The trading desk opens on Sundays between 5:00 PM ET and 5:15 PM ET. A mesa de negociação fecha as sextas-feiras às 4:55 PM ET. Por favor, note que as encomendas anteriores podem ser preenchidas até às 5:00 da tarde. ET e que os comerciantes colocam trocas entre as 4:55 p. m. E 5:00 p. m. ET may be unable to cancel orders pending execution. In the event that a Market GTC Order is submitted right at market close, the possibility exists that it may not be executed until Sunday at market open. Please use caution when trading around Fridays market close and factor all the information described above into any trading decision. The open or close times may be altered by the Trading Desk because it relies on prices being offered by liquidity providers to FXCM. Outside of these hours, most of the major world banks and financial centres are closed. The lack of liquidity and volume during the weekend impedes execution and price delivery. PRICES UPDATING BEFORE THE OPEN Shortly prior to the open, the Trading Desk refreshes rates to reflect current market pricing in preparation for the open. At this time, trades and orders held over the weekend are subject to execution. Quotes during this time are not executable for new market orders. Após a abertura, os comerciantes podem fazer novos negócios e cancelar ou modificar ordens existentes. Sundays opening prices may or may not be the same as Fridays closing prices. At times, the prices on the Sunday open are near where the prices were on the Friday close. At other times, there may be a significant difference between Fridays close and Sundays open. The market may gap if there is a significant news announcement or an economic event changing how the market views the value of a currency. Traders holding positions or orders over the weekend should be fully comfortable with the potential of the market to gap. ORDER EXECUTION Limit orders are often filled at the requested price or better. If the price requested (or a better price) is not available in the market, the order will not be filled. If the requested price of a Stop order is reached at the open of the market on Sunday, the order will become a Market order. Limit Entry orders are filled the same way as Limit orders. Stop Entry orders are filled the same way as Stops. WEEKEND RISK Traders who fear that the markets may be extremely volatile over the weekend, that gapping may occur, or that the potential for weekend risk is not appropriate for their trading style, may simply close out orders and positions ahead of the weekend. It is imperative that traders who hold open positions over the weekend understand that the potential exists for major economic events and news announcements to affect the value of your underlying positions. Given the volatility expressed in the markets it is not uncommon for prices to be a number of pips away on market open from market close. We encourage all traders to take this into consideration before making a trading decision. MARGIN CALLS AND CLOSE OUTS Margin calls are triggered when your usable margin falls below zero. This occurs when your floating losses reduce your account equity to a level that is less than your margin requirement. Therefore, the result of any margin call is subsequent liquidation unless otherwise specified. The idea of margin trading is that your margin acts as a good faith deposit to secure the larger notional value of your position. Margin trading allows traders to hold a position much larger than the actual account value. FXCMs Trading Station has margin management capabilities, which allow for the use of leverage. Of course, trading on margin comes with risk as leverage may work against you as much as it works for you. If account equity falls below margin requirements, the FXCM Trading Station will trigger an order to close all open positions. When positions have been over-leveraged or trading losses are incurred to the point that insufficient equity exists to maintain current open positions and the accounts usable margin falls below zero, a margin call will result and all open positions will be closed out (liquidated). Please keep in mind that when the accounts usable margin falls below zero, all open positions are triggered to close. The liquidation process is designed to be entirely electronic. Although the margin call feature is designed to close positions when account equity falls below the margin requirements, there may be instances when liquidity does not exist at the exact margin call rate. As a result, account equity can fall below margin requirements at the time orders are filled, even to the point where account equity becomes negative. This is especially true during market gaps or volatile periods. FXCM recommends that traders use Stop orders to limit downside risk in lieu of using a margin call as a final stop. It is strongly advised that clients maintain the appropriate amount of margin in their accounts at all times. Margin requirements may be changed based on account size, simultaneous open positions, trading style, market conditions, and at the discretion of FXCM. Metatrader 4 Please note that MT4 users are subject to different margin call procedures. When a margin call is triggered on the account, individual positions will be liquidated until the remaining equity is sufficient to support existing position(s). In deciding what positions will be individually liquidated the largest losing position will be closed first during liquidation. CHART PRICING VS. PRICES DISPLAYED ON THE PLATFORM It is important to make a distinction between indicative prices (displayed on charts) and dealable prices (displayed on the platforms, such as Trading Station and MetaTrader 4). Indicative quotes are those that offer an indication of the prices in the market, and the rate at which they are changing. These prices are derived from a host of contributors such as banks and clearing firms, which may or may not reflect where FXCMs liquidity providers are making prices. Indicative prices are usually very close to dealing prices, but they only give an indication of where the market is. Executable quotes ensure finer execution and thus a reduced transaction cost. Because the spot forex market lacks a single central exchange where all transactions are conducted, each forex dealer may quote slightly different prices. Therefore, any prices displayed by a third party charting provider, which does not employ the market makers price feed, will reflect indicative prices and not necessarily actual dealing prices where trades can be executed. MOBILE TRADING PLATFORMS There are a series of inherent risks with the use of the mobile trading technology such as the duplication of order instructions, latency in the prices provided, and other issues that are a result of mobile connectivity. Prices displayed on the mobile platform are solely an indication of the executable rates and may not reflect the actual executed price of the order. Mobile TS II utilizes public communication network circuits for the transmission of messages. FXCM shall not be liable for any and all circumstances in which you experience a delay in price quotation or an inability to trade caused by network circuit transmission problems or any other problems outside the direct control of FXCM. Transmission problems include but are not limited to the strength of the mobile signal, cellular latency, or any other issues that may arise between you and any internet service provider, phone service provider, or any other service provider. It is strongly recommended that clients familiarize themselves with the functionality of the FXCM Mobile Trading Station prior to managing a live account via portable device. TS MOBILE TABLET APPLICATION FXCMs Trading Station Web platform has been modified to run on mobile and tablet devices. The mobile platform for tablet devices is called Trading Station Mobile and has the same trading features as Trading Station Web. The same connectivity risks described above regarding our Mobile TS II apply to use with any application made available for tablet trading. Dealing Desk Forex Execution Trading Risks HIGH RISK INVESTMENT Trading foreign exchange on margin carries a high level of risk where losses can exceed deposits, and may not be suitable for all investors.

INTERNET TRADING RISKS There are risks associated with utilising an internet-based deal-execution trading system including, but not limited to, the failure of hardware, software, and internet connection. Since FXCM does not control signal power, its reception or routing via the internet, configuration of your equipment or reliability of its connection, we cannot be responsible for communication failures, distortions or delays when trading via the internet. FXCM employs backup systems and contingency plans to minimise the possibility of system failure, which includes allowing clients to trade via telephone. DEALING DESK FOREX EXECUTION FXCM also offers forex execution via a Dealing Desk execution model. FXCM acts as a market maker and is the counterparty to all trades that a client undertakes. In this model, FXCMs compensation may not be limited to our standard markup and our interests may be in direct conflict with yours. FXCM offers two Dealing Desk profiles: a higher leverage of 400:1 for accounts with equity that does not exceed 10,000 currency units in which the account is denominated and a lower leverage of 200:1 for accounts with equity that exceeds 10,000 currency units but not 20,000 currency units. FXCM faces market risk as a result of entering into trades with you. FXCM may take steps to mitigate its risk arising from market making more effectively by, at our sole discretion and at any time and without previous consent, transferring your underlying account to our No Dealing Desk (NDD) execution offering. FXCM may also choose to transfer your account to the lower leverage of 200:1 should the equity in your account exceed 10,000 currency units or to our NDD offering should the equity in your account exceed the maximum 20,000 currency units. Account equity is defined as the balance of your account plus the floating PL of your open positions. The currency pairs listed below are available on the Dealing Desk execution offering. FXCM does not guarantee that quotes, prices, or spreads will always be better on one form of execution as compared to the other. Customers should consider many factors when deciding which execution type best suits their needs (e. g. conflict of interest, trading style or strategy, etc.). FXCM aims to provide clients with the best execution available and to get all orders filled at the requested rate. However, there are times when, due to an increase in volatility, orders may be subject to slippage. Slippage most commonly occurs during fundamental news events or periods of high volatility. Instances such as trade rollover (5pm EST) is a known period in which the amount of liquidity tends to be limited as many liquidity providers settle transactions for that day. For more information on why rollover occurs, see the section on lsquoRollover Costsrsquo. During periods such as these, your order type, quantity demanded, and specific order instructions can have an impact on the overall execution you receive. The volatility in the market may create conditions where orders are difficult to execute. For instance, the price you receive in the execution of your order might be many pips away from the selected or quoted price due to market movement. In this scenario, the trader is looking to execute at a certain price but in a split second, for example, the market may have moved significantly away from that price. The traders order would then be filled at the next available price for that specific order. FXCM provides a number of basic and advanced order types to help clients mitigate execution risk. One way to mitigate the risk associated with slippage is to utilize the Market Range (Max Deviation for MT4 users) feature on FXCMs Platforms. The Market Range feature allows traders to specify the amount of potential slippage they are willing to accept on a market order by defining a range. Zero indicates that no slippage is permitted. By selecting zero on the Market Range, the trader is requesting his order to be executed only at the selected or quoted price, not any other price. Traders may elect to accept a wider range of permissible slippage to raise the probability of having their order(s) executed. In this scenario the order will be filled at the best price available within the specified range. For instance, a client may indicate that he is willing to be filled within 2 pips of his requested order price. The system would then fill the client within the acceptable range (in this instance, 2 pips) if sufficient liquidity exists. If the order cannot be filled within the specified range, the order will not be filled. Please note, Market Range orders specify a negative range only. If a more preferential rate is available at the time of execution traders are not limited by the specified range for the amount of positive price improvement they can receive. Additionally, when triggered, stop orders become a market order available for execution at the next available market price. Stop orders guarantee execution but do not guarantee a particular price. When trading Forex via FXCMs dealing desk execution model, FXCM is the final counterparty to these transactions. Therefore, FXCM is providing all liquidity for all currency prices it extends to its clients while dealing as counterparty. FXCM is able to make auto execution available by limiting the max trade size of all orders to 2 million per trade. DELAYS IN EXECUTION A delay in execution may occur using a dealing desk model for various reasons, such as technical issues with the traders internet connection to FXCM or by a lack of available liquidity for the currency pair that trader is attempting to trade. Due to inherent volatility in the markets, it is imperative that traders have a working and reliable internet connection. There are circumstances when the traders personal internet connection may not be maintaining a constant connection with the FXCM servers due to a lack of signal strength from a wireless or dialup connection. A disturbance in the connection path can sometimes interrupt the signal and disable the FXCM Trading Station, causing delays in the transmission of data between the trading station and the FXCM server. One way to check your internet connection with FXCMs server is to ping the server from your computer. TIMEFRAME: COMPLETION OF TRANSACTION FXCM endeavours to process orders within milliseconds however, there is no exact time frame for order processing. STAGES: COMPLETION OF TRANSACTION When a client makes an order, FXCM first verifies the account for sufficient margin. O pedido é então comparável às cotações dos provedores de liquidez. Um pedido de hedge é enviado ao provedor de liquidez para execução. Finally, the clients order is filled and openclosed positions are updated. EXCEPTIONS: COMPLETION OF TRANSACTION There may be exceptions to the typical transaction, such as delays due to abnormal order processing or malfunctions with internal or external processes. Nesses casos, a FXCM notifica os clientes o mais rápido possível, dependendo da complexidade do problema. O objetivo do FXCM é notificar os clientes sobre esses tipos de exceções o mais rápido possível, mas o tempo de notificação às vezes depende da complexidade da questão em análise. Trading station . If abnormal market order processing occurs, the order will be highlighted in red, and the status column will indicate executed or processing, in the orders window. In these instances, the order is in the process of being executed, but is pending until FXCM receives confirmation from the liquidity provider that the quoted prices are still available. During periods of heavy trading volume, it is possible that a queue of orders will form. Esse aumento nas ordens recebidas às vezes pode criar condições em que há atraso dos provedores de liquidez na confirmação de determinados pedidos. Metatrader 4 (mt4) . If abnormal market order processing occurs, the order window would remain open on the trading platform and reflect processing error. In these instances, the order is in the process of being executed, but is pending until FXCM receives confirmation from the liquidity provider that the quoted prices are still available. During periods of heavy trading volume, it is possible that a queue of orders will form. Esse aumento nas ordens recebidas às vezes pode criar condições em que há atraso dos provedores de liquidez na confirmação de determinados pedidos. RESET ORDERS Market volatility creates conditions that make it difficult to execute orders at the given price due to an extremely high volume of orders. By the time orders are able to be executed, the bidask price at which FXCMs Trading Desk is willing to take a position may be several pips away. In cases where the liquidity pool is not large enough to fill a Market Range order, the order will not be executed. For Limit Entry or Limit orders, the order would not be executed but instead reset until the order can be filled. Remember, both Limit Entry and Limit orders guarantee price but do not guarantee execution. Depending on the underlying trading strategy and the underlying market conditions traders may be more concerned with execution versus the price received. WIDENED SPREADS There may be instances when spreads widen beyond the typical spread. Spreads are a function of market liquidity and in periods of limited liquidity, at market open, or during rollover at 5:00 PM ET, spreads may widen in response to uncertainty in the direction of prices or to an uptick in market volatility, or lack of market liquidity. It is not uncommon to see spreads widen particularly around rollover. Trade rollover is typically a very quiet period in the market, since the business day in New York has just ended, and there are still a few hours before the new business day begins in Tokyo. Being cognizant of these patterns and taking them into consideration while trading with open orders or placing new trades around these times can improve your trading experience. This may occur during news events and spreads may widen substantially in order to compensate for the tremendous amount of volatility in the market. The widened spreads may only last a few seconds or as long as a few minutes. FXCM strongly encourages traders to utilize caution when trading around news events and always be aware of their account equity, usable margin and market exposure. Widened spreads can adversely affect all positions in an account including hedged positions (discussed below). HANGING ORDERS During periods of high volume, hanging orders may occur. This is a condition where an order is in the process of executing but execution has not yet been confirmed. The order will be highlighted in red, and the status column will indicate executed or processing, in the orders window. In these instances, the order is in the process of being executed, but is pending. During periods of heavy trading volume, it is possible that a queue of orders will form. That increase in incoming orders may sometimes create conditions where there is a delay in confirming certain orders. Depending on the type of order placed, outcomes may vary. In the case of a Market Range order that cannot be filled within the specified range, or if the delay has passed, the order will not be executed. In the case of an At Market order, every attempt will be made to fill the order at the next available price in the market. In both situations, the status column in the orders window will typically indicate executed or processing. The trade will simply take a few moments to move to the open positions window. Depending upon the order type, the position may in fact have been executed, and the delay is simply due to heavy internet traffic. Keep in mind that it is only necessary to enter any order once. Multiple entries for the same order may slow or lock your computer or inadvertently open unwanted positions. If at any time you are unable to access the FXCM Trading Station to manage your account, you may call the Trading Desk directly at 1 212-201-7300. View a full list of international contact numbers. GREYED OUT PRICING Greyed out pricing is a condition that occurs when FXCMs Trading Desk is not actively making a market for particular currency pairs and liquidity therefore decreases. FXCM does not intentionally grey out prices however, at times, a severe increase in the difference of the spread may occur due to an announcement that has a dramatic effect on the market that limits liquidity. Such greying out of prices or increased spreads may result in margin calls on a traders account. When an order is placed on a currency pair affected by greyed out prices, the PL will temporarily flash to zero until the pair has a tradable price and the system can calculate the PL balance. The ability to hedge allows a trader to hold both buy and sell positions in the same currency pair simultaneously. Traders have the ability to enter the market without choosing a particular direction for a currency pair. Although hedging may mitigate or limit future losses it does not prevent the account from being subjected to further losses altogether. In the forex market a trader is able to fully hedge by quantity but not by price. This is because of the difference between the buy and sell prices, or the spread. Effective, 02 December 2012, FXCM traders will be required to put up margin for one side (the larger side) of a hedged position. Margin requirements can be monitored at all times in the simple dealing rates window. While the ability to hedge is an appealing feature, traders should be aware of the following factors that may affect hedged positions. DIMINISHING MARGIN A margin call may occur even when an account is fully hedged, since spreads may widen, causing the remaining margin in the account to diminish. Should the remaining margin be insufficient to maintain any open positions, the account may sustain a margin call, closing out any open positions in the account. Although maintaining a long and short position may give the trader the impression that his exposure to the markets movement is limited, if insufficient available margin exists and spreads widen for any period of time, it may certainly result in a margin call on all positions. ROLLOVER COSTS Rollover is the simultaneous closing and opening of a position at a particular point during the day in order to avoid the settlement and delivery of the purchased currency. This term also refers to the interest either charged or applied to a traders account for positions held overnight, meaning after 5 p. m. ET on FXCMs Platforms. The time at which positions are closed and reopened, and the rollover fee is debited or credited, is commonly referred to as Trade Rollover (TRO). It is important to note that rollover charges will be higher than rollover accruals. When all positions are hedged in an account, although the overall net position may be flat, the account can still sustain losses due to the spread that occurs at the time rollover occurs. Spreads during rollover may be wider when compared to other time periods because of FXCMs Trading Desk momentarily coming offline to settle the days transactions. EXCHANGE RATE FLUCTUATIONS (PIP COSTS) Exchange rate fluctuations, or pip costs, are defined as the value given to a pip movement for a particular currency pair. This cost is the currency amount that will be gained or lost with each pip movement of the currency pairs rate and will be denominated in the currency denomination of the account in which the pair is being traded. On the FXCM Platforms, the pip cost for all currency pairs can be found by selecting View, followed by Dealing Views, and then by clicking Simple Rates to apply the checkmark next to it. If Simple Rates already has a check mark next to it, viewing the dealing rates in the simple view is as easy as clicking the Simple Dealing Rates tab in the dealing rates window. Once visible, the simple rates view will display the pip cost on the right-hand side of the window. INVERTED SPREADS When trading Forex with FXCMs dealing desk execution model, all quotable prices are provided by our Trading Desk. FXCMs Trading Desk may rely on various third party sources for the prices that it makes available to clients. In the event that a manifest (misquoted) price is provided to us from a source that we generally rely on, all trades executed on that manifest (misquoted) price may be revoked, as the manifest (misquoted) price is not representative of genuine market activity. These manifest (misquoted) prices can lead to an inversion in the spread. HOLIDAYWEEKEND EXECUTION TRADING DESK HOURS The trading desk opens on Sundays between 5:00 PM ET and 5:15 PM ET. A mesa de negociação fecha as sextas-feiras às 4:55 PM ET. Por favor, note que as encomendas anteriores podem ser preenchidas até às 5:00 da tarde. ET e que os comerciantes colocam trocas entre as 4:55 p. m. E 5:00 p. m. ET may be unable to cancel orders pending execution. In the event that a Market GTC Order is submitted right at market close, the possibility exists that it may not be executed until Sunday market open. Please use caution when trading around Fridays market close and factor all the information described above into any trading decision. The open or close times may be altered by the Trading Desk because it relies on prices being offered by third party sources. Outside of these hours, most of the major world banks and financial centres are closed. The lack of liquidity and volume during the weekend impedes execution and price delivery. PRICES UPDATING BEFORE THE OPEN Shortly prior to the open, the Trading Desk refreshes rates to reflect current market pricing in preparation for the open. At this time, trades and orders held over the weekend are subject to execution. Quotes during this time are not executable for new market orders. Após a abertura, os comerciantes podem fazer novos negócios e cancelar ou modificar ordens existentes. Sundays opening prices may or may not be the same as Fridays closing prices. At times, the prices on the Sunday open are near where the prices were on the Friday close. At other times, there may be a significant difference between Fridays close and Sundays open. The market may gap if there is a significant news announcement or an economic event changing how the market views the value of a currency. Traders holding positions or orders over the weekend should be fully comfortable with the potential of the market to gap. ORDER EXECUTION Limit orders are often filled at the requested price or better. If the price requested (or a better price) is not available in the market, the order will not be filled. If the requested price of a Stop order is reached at the open of the market on Sunday, the order will become a Market order. Limit Entry orders are filled the same way as Limit orders. Stop Entry orders are filled the same way as Stops. WEEKEND RISK Traders who fear that the markets may be extremely volatile over the weekend, that gapping may occur, or that the potential for weekend risk is not appropriate for their trading style, may simply close out orders and positions ahead of the weekend. It is imperative that traders who hold open positions over the weekend understand that the potential exists for major economic events and news announcements to affect the value of your underlying positions. Given the volatility expressed in the markets it is not uncommon for prices to be a number of pips away on market open from market close. We encourage all traders to take this into consideration before making a trading decision. MARGIN CALLS AND CLOSE OUTS Margin calls are triggered when your usable margin falls below zero. This occurs when your floating losses reduce your account equity to a level that is less than your margin requirement. Therefore, the result of any margin call is subsequent liquidation unless otherwise specified. The idea of margin trading is that your margin acts as a good faith deposit to secure the larger notional value of your position. Margin trading allows traders to hold a position much larger than the actual account value. FXCMs Trading Station has margin management capabilities, which allow for the use of leverage. Of course, trading on margin comes with risk as leverage may work against you as much as it works for you. If account equity falls below margin requirements, the FXCM Trading Station will trigger an order to close all open positions. When positions have been over-leveraged or trading losses are incurred to the point that insufficient equity exists to maintain current open positions and the accounts usable margin falls below zero, a margin call will result and all open positions will be closed out (liquidated). Please keep in mind that when the accounts usable margin falls below zero, all open positions are triggered to close. The liquidation process is designed to be entirely electronic. Although the margin call feature is designed to close positions when account equity falls below the margin requirements, there may be instances when liquidity does not exist at the exact margin call rate. As a result, account equity can fall below margin requirements at the time orders are filled, even to the point where account equity becomes negative. FXCM recommends that traders use Stop orders to limit downside risk in lieu of using a margin call as a final stop. It is strongly advised that clients maintain the appropriate amount of margin in their accounts at all times. Margin requirements may be changed based on account size, simultaneous open positions, trading style, market conditions, and at the discretion of FXCM. METATRADER 4 Please note that MT4 users are subject to different margin call procedures. When a margin call is triggered on the account individual positions will be liquidated until the remaining equity is sufficient to support existing position(s). In deciding what positions will be individually liquidated the largest losing position will be closed first during liquidation. CHART PRICING VS. PRICES DISPLAYED ON THE PLATFORM It is important to make a distinction between indicative prices (displayed on charts) and dealable prices (displayed on the platforms, such as Trading Station and MetaTrader 4). Indicative quotes are those that offer an indication of the prices in the market, and the rate at which they are changing. These prices are derived from a host of contributors such as banks and clearing firms, which may or may not reflect where FXCMs liquidity providers are making prices. Indicative prices are usually very close to dealing prices, but they only give an indication of where the market is. Executable quotes ensure finer execution and thus a reduced transaction cost. Because the spot forex market lacks a single central exchange where all transactions are conducted, each forex dealer may quote slightly different prices. Therefore, any prices displayed by a third party charting provider, which does not employ the market makers price feed, will reflect indicative prices and not necessarily actual dealing prices where trades can be executed. MOBILE TRADING PLATFORMS There are a series of inherent risks with the use of the mobile trading technology such as the duplication of order instructions, latency in the prices provided, and other issues that are a result of mobile connectivity. Prices displayed on the mobile platform are solely an indication of the executable rates and may not reflect the actual executed price of the order. Mobile TS II utilizes public communication network circuits for the transmission of messages. FXCM shall not be liable for any and all circumstances in which you experience a delay in price quotation or an inability to trade caused by network circuit transmission problems or any other problems outside the direct control of FXCM. Transmission problems include but are not limited to the strength of the mobile signal, cellular latency, or any other issues that may arise between you and any internet service provider, phone service provider, or any other service provider. It is strongly recommended that clients familiarize themselves with the functionality of the FXCM Mobile Trading Station prior to managing a live account via portable device. TS MOBILE TABLET APPLICATION FXCMs Trading Station Web platform has been modified to run on mobile and tablet devices. The mobile platform for tablets is called Trading Station Mobile and has the same trading features as Trading Station Web. The same connectivity risks described above regarding our Mobile TS II apply to use with any application made available for tablet trading. CFD Execution HIGH RISK INVESTMENT Trading Contracts for Difference (CFDs) on margin carries a high level of risk, and may not be suitable for all investors. Before deciding to trade these products offered by FXCM Marktes, Limited (FXCM) you should carefully consider your objectives, financial situation, needs and level of experience. FXCM may provide general commentary without regard to your objectives, financial situation or needs. General advice given or the content of this website are not intended to be personal advice and should not be construed as such. O conteúdo deste site não deve ser interpretado como um conselho pessoal.

FXCM MARKET OPINIONS Any opinions, news, research, analyses, prices, or other information contained on this website is provided as general market commentary, and does not constitute investment advice. A FXCM não aceita qualquer responsabilidade por qualquer perda ou dano, incluindo, sem limitação, qualquer perda de lucro, que possa surgir direta ou indiretamente do uso ou dependência de tal informação. INTERNET TRADING RISKS There are risks associated with utilising an internet-based deal-execution trading system including, but not limited to, the failure of hardware, software, and internet connection. Since FXCM does not control signal power, its reception or routing via the internet, configuration of your equipment or reliability of its connection, we cannot be responsible for communication failures, distortions or delays when trading via the internet. FXCM employs backup systems and contingency plans to minimise the possibility of system failure, which includes allowing clients to trade via telephone. CFD EXECUTION MODEL Contract for Difference products are generally subject to dealing desk execution. FXCM reserves the right to switch a clients execution to No Dealing Desk without prior consent from client, for any reason, including but not limited to, the product being traded, trading style of client, or volume traded. FXCM does not generally execute CFD orders with an external counterparty. FXCM is the final counterparty for most CFD positions which you undertake. Please note that as the final counterparty FXCM may receive compensation beyond our standard fixed mark-up. FXCM makes prices for the CFD instruments it offers to its clients. Although these prices may be indicative of the underlying market for the product being traded, they do not represent the actual prices of the underlying asset on the physical market or exchange where it is listed. As dealer, FXCM accumulates exposure for the products we deal to you. As such, FXCM may take steps to mitigate risk accumulated during the market making process. Therefore, FXCM provides automatic execution of all orders submitted for execution up to a certain amount. In the event that you exhibit behaviors that prevent FXCM from mitigating exposure, we may, in our sole discretion remove you from participation of auto execution. Removal from auto execution means that each order will be confirmed by a dealer before it is processed to ensure that we are able to mitigate any market risk. In the case that FXCM provides execution for CFDs through a straight through processing, or No Dealing Desk execution model, FXCM passes on to its clients the best prices that are provided by one of FXCMs liquidity providers with a fixed mark-up for each product. In this model, FXCM does not act as a market marker and is reliant on liquidity providers for pricing and there are certain limitations to liquidity that can affect the final execution of your order. For more information on the CFD execution model, read the CFD FAQs . FXCM aims to provide clients with the best execution available and to get all orders filled at the requested rate. However, there are times when, due to an increase in volatility or volume, orders may be subject to slippage. Slippage most commonly occurs during fundamental news events or periods of limited liquidity. Instances such as trade rollover (5pm EST) is a known period in which the amount of liquidity tends to be limited as many liquidity providers settle transactions for that day. For more information on why rollover occurs, see the section on lsquoRollover Costsrsquo. During periods such as these, your order type, quantity demanded, and specific order instructions can have an impact on the overall execution you receive. Examples of specific order instructions include: Good Til Cancelled (GTC) Orders - Your entire order will be filled at the next available price(s) at the time it is received. Immediate or Cancel (IOC) Orders - All or part of your order will be filled at the next available price with the remaining amount cancelled should liquidity not exist to fill your order immediately. Fill or Kill (FOK) Orders - The order must be filled in its entirety or not at all. The volatility in the market may create conditions where orders are difficult to execute. For instance, the price you receive in the execution of your order might be many pips away from the selected or quoted price due to market movement. In this scenario, the trader is looking to execute at a certain price but in a split second, for example, the market may have moved significantly away from that price. The traders order would then be filled at the next price available price for that specific order. Similarly, given FXCMs models for execution, sufficient liquidity must exist to execute all trades at any price. FXCM provides a number of basic and advanced order types to help clients mitigate execution risk. One way to mitigate the risk associated with slippage is to utilize the Market Range (Max Deviation for MT4 users) feature on FXCMs Platforms. The Market Range feature allows traders to specify the amount of potential slippage they are willing to accept on a market order by defining a range. Zero indicates that no slippage is permitted. By selecting zero on the Market Range, the trader is requesting his order to be executed only at the selected or quoted price, not any other price. Traders may elect to accept a wider range of permissible slippage to raise the probability of having their order(s) executed. In this scenario the order will be filled at the best price available within the specified range. For instance, a client may indicate that he is willing to be filled within 2 pips of his requested order price. The system would then fill the client within the acceptable range (in this instance, 2 pips) if sufficient liquidity exists. If the order cannot be filled within the specified range, the order will not be filled. Please note, Market Range orders specify a negative range only. If a more preferential rate is available at the time of execution traders are not limited by the specified range for the amount of positive price improvement they can receive. Additionally, when triggered, stop orders become a market order available for execution at the next available market price. Stop orders guarantee execution but do not guarantee a particular price. Therefore, stop orders may incur slippage depending on market conditions. When trading Forex via FXCMs dealing desk execution model, FXCM is the final counterparty to these transactions. Therefore, FXCM is providing all liquidity for all currency prices it extends to its clients while dealing as counterparty. FXCM is able to make auto execution available by limiting the max trade size of all orders to 2 million per trade. In addition to the order type, a trader must consider the availability of the instrument prior to making any trading decision. As in all financial markets, some instruments within that market will have greater depth of liquidity than others. Ample liquidity allows the trader to seamlessly enter or exit positions, near immediacy of execution, and minimal slippage during normal market conditions. However, certain products have more liquid markets than others. DELAYS IN EXECUTION A delay in execution may occur for various reasons, such as technical issues with the traders internet connection to FXCM or by a lack of available liquidity for the instrument that the trader is attempting to trade. Due to inherent volatility in the markets, it is imperative that traders have a working and reliable internet connection. There are circumstances when the traders personal internet connection may not be maintaining a constant connection with the FXCM servers due to a lack of signal strength from a wireless or dialup connection. A disturbance in the connection path can sometimes interrupt the signal and disable the FXCM Trading Station, causing delays in the transmission of data between the trading station and the FXCM server. One way to check your internet connection with FXCMs server is to ping the server from your computer.

Remember, both Limit Entry and Limit orders guarantee price but do not guarantee execution. Depending on the underlying trading strategy and the underlying market conditions traders may be more concerned with execution versus the price received. WIDENED SPREADS CFDs are contracts whose underlying value is derived from the futures contract for the product being traded. Differences in settlement are made through cash payments, rather than the delivery of physical goods or securities. Under the dealing desk execution model, FXCMs trading desk makes prices for the CFD instruments it makes available to its clients. For products that trade under the NDD model for execution, you are trading on price feeds that are being provided by multiple liquidity providers, plus FXCMs mark-up. Spreads may widen due to news events when there is large amount of volatility in the market. During time periods outside of the market hours for the underlying product being traded spreads maybe wider than what you are accustomed. HANGING ORDERS During periods of high volume, hanging orders may occur. This is a condition where an order is in the process of executing but execution has not yet been confirmed. The order will be highlighted in red, and the status column will indicate executed or processing, in the orders window. In these instances, the order is in the process of being executed, but is pending until FXCMs Trading Desk or liquidity provider provides confirmation that the quoted prices are still available.

HOLIDAYWEEKEND EXECUTION TRADING DESK HOURS The hours for each CFD are determined by FXCMs Trading Desk based on the schedule for trading on the exchange for the underlying market, commodity, or asset. Please refer to the CFD Product Guide for specific hours for each instrument. FXCM aims to open markets as close to the posted trading hours as possible. However, liquidity at or around market openclose for any CFD instrument can be very thin. FXCM may delay market open on specific instruments by several minutes to protect clients from quoted prices that are not representative of the true market price. Traders are advised to use extreme caution during these periods and to utilize FXCMs basic and advanced orders types to mitigate execution risk. Based on the illiquidity illustrated during these time periods traders using market orders can experience slippage, or gapping in prices that can have a material impact on your final execution price. PRICES UPDATING BEFORE THE OPEN Shortly prior to the open, the Trading Desk refreshes rates to reflect current market pricing in preparation for the open. At this time, trades and orders held over the weekend are subject to execution. Quotes during this time are not executable for new market orders. Após a abertura, os comerciantes podem fazer novos negócios e cancelar ou modificar ordens existentes. There is a substantial risk that stop-loss orders left to protect open positions held overnight may be executed at levels significantly worse than their specified price. Commensurate with the openingclosing of the market for the underlying instrument, CFD traders may experience gaps in market prices. Due to the volatility expressed during these time periods, trading at the open or at the close, can involve additional risk and must be factored into any trading decision. These time periods are specifically mentioned because they are associated with the lowest levels of market liquidity and can be followed by significant movements in prices for both the CFD, and the underlying instrument. ORDER EXECUTION Limit orders are often filled at the requested price or better. If the price requested (or a better price) is not available in the market, the order will not be filled. If the requested price of a Stop order is reached at the open of the market on Sunday, the order will become a Market order. Limit Entry orders are filled the same way as Limit orders. Stop Entry orders are filled the same way as Stops. WEEKEND RISK Traders who fear that the markets may be extremely volatile over the weekend, that gapping may occur, or that the potential for weekend risk is not appropriate for their trading style, may simply close out orders and positions ahead of the weekend. It is imperative that traders who hold open positions over the weekend understand that the potential exists for major economic events and news announcements to affect the value of your underlying positions. Given the volatility expressed in the markets it is not uncommon for prices to be a number of pips away on market open from market close. We encourage all traders to take this into consideration before making a trading decision. MARGIN CALLS AND CLOSE OUTS Margin calls are triggered when your usable margin falls below zero. This occurs when your floating losses reduce your account equity to a level that is less than your margin requirement. Therefore, the result of any margin call is subsequent liquidation unless otherwise specified. FXCM process all liquidations for CFD products automatically. Open and close times for the underlying reference market are determined by the exchange, or third party execution venue, and not by FXCM. If the clients liquidation event is triggered during the period when the underlying reference market is closed, it may be necessary for the FXCM Trading Desk to wait until the underlying reference market re-opens before liquidation of the CFD positions can be finalized. Depending on market conditions, this could mean that the final price the client receives is a significant number of points away from the price that triggered the clients liquidation. If the clients account contains open positions for both CFD and forex at the time liquidation is triggered it is possible that only the clients forex positions will be liquidated. This would only occur in situations where the underlying reference market for the clients CFD positions is closed, and the liquidation of the clients forex positions satisfies the liquidation requirement. METATRADER 4 Please note that MT4 users are subject to different margin call procedures. When a margin call is triggered on the account individual positions will be liquidated until the remaining equity is sufficient to support existing position(s). In deciding what positions will be individually liquidated the largest losing position will be closed first during liquidation. CHART PRICING VS. PRICES DISPLAYED ON THE PLATFORM It is important to make a distinction between indicative prices (displayed on charts) and dealable prices (displayed on the platforms, such as Trading Station and MetaTrader 4). Indicative quotes are those that offer an indication of the prices in the market, and the rate at which they are changing. These prices are derived from a host of contributors such as banks and clearing firms, which may or may not reflect where FXCMs liquidity providers are making prices. Indicative prices are usually very close to dealing prices, but they only give an indication of where the market is. Executable quotes ensure finer execution and thus a reduced transaction cost. Because the spot forex market lacks a single central exchange where all transactions are conducted, each forex dealer may quote slightly different prices. Therefore, any prices displayed by a third party charting provider, which does not employ the market makers price feed, will reflect indicative prices and not necessarily actual dealing prices where trades can be executed. MOBILE TRADING PLATFORMS There are a series of inherent risks with the use of the mobile trading technology such as the duplication of order instructions, latency in the prices provided, and other issues that are a result of mobile connectivity. Prices displayed on the mobile platform are solely an indication of the executable rates and may not reflect the actual executed price of the order. Mobile TS II utilizes public communication network circuits for the transmission of messages. FXCM shall not be liable for any and all circumstances in which you experience a delay in price quotation or an inability to trade caused by network circuit transmission problems or any other problems outside the direct control of FXCM. Transmission problems include but are not limited to the strength of the mobile signal, cellular latency, or any other issues that may arise between you and any internet service provider, phone service provider, or any other service provider. Please note some features of the FXCM Trading Station will not be available on the FXCM Mobile Trading Station. Key differences include, but are not limited to, charting packages, daily interest rolls will not appear, and the maintenance margin requirement per financial instrument will not be available. It is strongly recommended that clients familiarize themselves with the functionality of the FXCM Mobile Trading Station prior to managing a live account via portable device. TS MOBILE TABLET APPLICATION FXCMs Trading Station Web platform has been modified to run on mobile and tablet devices. The mobile platform is called Trading Station Mobile. With the exception of OCO orders (one-cancels-other), Trading Station Mobile for tablet devices has the same trading features as Trading Station Web. The same connectivity risks described above regarding our Mobile TS II apply to use with any application made available for tablet trading. FXCM MetaTrader 4 Execution Individuals should review the information below carefully which details the differences regarding execution, trading features, and platform settings specific to the FXCM MT4 platform. Features and Settings Trade Execution Orders to open and close trades, as well as take profit (TP) orders execute Fill or Kill. These orders only execute if they can fill in their entirety at the requested price. These orders cannot be broken up and filled at multiple prices. In the event that sufficient liquidity is not immediately available to execute a Fill or Kill order in its entirety, execution ceases. Stop Loss (SL) orders, and orders submitted due to margin call do not execute Fill or Kill. These orders do fill in their entirety at the same price however, execution will not cease if sufficient liquidity is not immediately available. Execution will continue until a price becomes available to fill the entire order. The maximum number of open orders is capped at 500 individual orders per account. This restriction includes both open orders and pending orders. The MT4 platform will display an error message if traders attempt to open more than 500 individual orders. Stop Losses and Take Profits are exempt from this restriction. Margin Call The margin call policy for FXCM MetaTrader 4 accounts is different from all other FXCM accounts. When a margin call occurs, trades will be closed one by one until Free Margin is greater than zero. Interest rates are not displayed on the MetaTrader 4 Platform however, traders will pay or accrue interest in accordance with the current FXCM rates. To obtain the rollover rates traders can view them on the FXCM Trading Station II platform or call FXCM customer service for current rates. Please be advised that interest rates are provided to FXCM by multiple liquidity providers. Every effort is made to display rollover rates one day in advance on the FXCM Trading Station II. However, during times of extreme market volatility, rates may change intraday. Any positions that are open at 5 p. m. ET sharp are considered to be held overnight, and are subject to rollover. A position opened at 5:01 p. m. is not subject to rollover until the next day, while a position opened at 4:59 p. m. is subject to rollover at 5 p. m. ET. Expert Advisor Expert Advisors (EA) are automated trading tools that can perform all or part of a trading strategy. While FXCM offers proprietary EAs, there are others developed by third parties. FXCM does not vouch for the accuracy or reliability provided by the EAs not in its control. Traders utilizing an EA do so at their own risk. Additionally, many EAs employ the use of micro lots and do not account for fractional pip pricing. On the FXCM MetaTrader 4 platform the smallest lot size increment is 1k and fractional pips are used. Prior to trading, please contact your EA provider to discuss the lot sizes used in the program and any potential issues that may arise from fractional pip pricing. Max Deviation With FXCM MetaTrader 4, all orders execute using instant execution. This MetaTrader 4 execution type enables the maximum deviation (max deviation) feature. The maximum deviation feature was designed to control slippage - both negative and positive - in the following way. When creating an order, a number is specified in tenths of a pip (ge0) in the max deviation field. This number is the maximum amount of slippage the order can receive. If the market price moves beyond this amount while the order is executing, the order will cancel automatically. This is how the maximum deviation feature was designed to function. FXCM trading policy allows for unlimited positive slippage on all order types. Therefore, FXCM has developed a way to override the restriction that the maximum deviation feature places on positive slippage. All orders placed on the FXCM MetaTrader 4 platform fill with the greatest amount of positive slippage possible. In the event that an order fills with positive slippage beyond the maximum deviation . the platform logs a message in the Journal tab. The message has the following format: - Positive Slippage - . is the positive slippage the order received beyond the maximum deviation. If the market price moves negatively beyond the maximum deviation, the order cancels automatically. When this occurs, an Off Quotes message is displayed. This is a standard MetaTrader 4 message notifying the user that an order canceled because the market price deviated beyond the order setting. Please note: dependent upon market conditions, a lower maximum deviation amount can increase the likelihood that an order will be rejected due to the market price moving outside of the maximum deviation. Pending Orders You cannot use a pending order to close a trade or a portion of it. Pending orders can only be used to open new trades. For example, assume that an account is long 0.2 EURUSD. A trader then creates a pending order to sell 0.1 EURUSD. If the pending order price is reached, the order will trigger for execution. However, because the pending order is attempting to trade in the opposite direction of the existing long trade, the pending order will automatically cancel, leaving the long trade unaffected. When closing a trade, MetaTrader 4 users can use stop loss and take profit orders as an alternative to pending orders. Cross-Platform Compatibility FXCM MetaTrader 4 login credentials grant a user with access to the FXCM Trading Station platforms. Therefore, FXCM MetaTrader 4 account holders can place and manage trades and orders through the FXCM Trading Station platforms. Account details for retail clients (e. g. orders, trades, PL, margin, equity) will match on all of these platforms and their statement of records. However, please note that some functionality available on the FXCM Trading Station platforms may not be available on the FXCM MetaTrader 4 platform. FXCM MetaTrader 4 Markups A 0.1 pip mark-up is added to spread for the use of MT4. The 0.1 pip is in addition to the regular mark-up FXCM adds to the spreads it receives from liquidity providers. FXCM MetaTrader 4 allows for order sizes up to 50 million per trade. Os comerciantes têm a capacidade de trocar tamanhos incrementais (múltiplos pedidos de 50 milhões para o mesmo par). The FXCM MetaTrader 4 Platform does not show pip costs. The potential exists for variations in pricing displayed between servers. Essas diferenças não têm impacto nos preços disponíveis para execução, mas podem afetar os preços usados ​​para desencadear ordens de repouso. FXCM MetaTrader 4 Server Information Under rare circumstances it may be necessary to type in a server address when logging into FXCM MetaTrader 4. A list of FXCMs MT4 server names and addresses has been provided below. So long as you download FXCM MetaTrader 4 here and install it on your computer or VPS, you will not need these server addresses.

MetaTrader 4 Live Server TIMEFRAME: COMPLETION OF TRANSACTION FXCM endeavours to process orders within milliseconds however, there is no exact time frame for order processing. STAGES: COMPLETION OF TRANSACTION When a client makes an order, FXCM first verifies the account for sufficient margin. O pedido é então comparável às cotações dos provedores de liquidez. Um pedido de hedge é enviado ao provedor de liquidez para execução. Finally, the clients order is filled and openclosed positions are updated. EXCEPTIONS: COMPLETION OF TRANSACTION There may be exceptions to the typical transaction, such as delays due to abnormal order processing or malfunctions with internal or external processes. Nesses casos, a FXCM notifica os clientes o mais rápido possível, dependendo da complexidade do problema.
