Resolve Posted December 28, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2020 What to Consider in 2021 Global Financial Markets? While the year is not over yet, everyone looks at what lies ahead. But how to better prepare for the next year’s trading opportunities without looking back at the events that marked 2020? So many things happened that it is impossible to discuss them all in this article. Instead, let’s have a look at what influenced financial markets in 2020 and can also have a say in what the markets will do in 2021. COVID-19 Pandemic Unfortunately, 2020 will be a year remembered for the coronavirus pandemic and everything that it brought with it. Caught completely by surprise, the world reacted with a lag. Lives were lost, and industries were disrupted. Small businesses were affected the most, with many closing their doors indefinitely. Governments and central banks reacted the only way they knew – by printing money and offering loans to incredibly low interest rates. Brave wannabe entrepreneurs took a chance in the hope that 2021 and beyond will be better. Hope does exist. Vaccines are rolled out all over the world. Studies show that the efficacy of the many vaccines that already exist is enough to stop the pandemic in the second half of 2021. 2020 Financial Events to Impact 2021 For financial markets, 2020 brought some incredible developments. First, it brought the fastest dive from a bull to a bear market in history. By definition, when the stock market corrects more than 20% from the highs, it reaches a bear market – in March 2020, the drop came so fast as never before. Second, the price of oil settled into negative territory. For the first time in history, investors learned that the price of a commodity could settle for negative values. Basically, producers paid for someone to come and take the oil off their hands as no storage facilities existed anymore. Third, the global negative-yielding debt surged close to $20 trillion. As the chart above shows, the trend stalled somehow during 2015 and 2017 but closed the year at record highs. Debt with negative yields show investors willing to lend money to an entity (e.g., sovereign, corporation) that pays them back less than the original amount invested. Fourth, Brexit came to an end a few days ago. The United Kingdom and the European Union reached a trade deal that was responsible for much of the price action swings in the GBP pairs for the entire year. Starting with January 1st, 2021, trade between the two takes a new dimension. It is hard to envision now the benefit of Brexit for both the United Kingdom and the European Union. Perhaps it will become obvious somewhere in the future, perhaps not – but at this point, Europe looks weak. Finally, the United States prepares for a new administration at the White House. It brings new air after four years of controversial policies run by Trump’s administration. It also brings a new head of the Treasury, none other than the former chairwoman – Janet Yellen. If and when the pandemic ends, the world’s economies have a long way to full recovery. The events mentioned above left deep wounds that cannot heal easily.

Thezig Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 PAMM for Followers A Follower is a trader who probably lacks time, skill or desire for full time Forex trading. The Master’s trading strategy will automatically be replicated in the Follower’s trading account in respect of these selected funds. This allows Followers to receive profit without fully engaging themselves into Forex trading. Benefits of PAMM for Followers Full control over funding and withdrawing The Follower can add money to be used in the PAMM account or withdraw these funds at any moment of time without any permission from the Master. The Master has no access to adding or withdrawing the Follower's money whatsoever. So the scenario when a dishonest Master prevents a Follower from withdrawing money or fails to pay the profit is completely impossible. Automatic Allocation of Profits/Losses and Fees All calculations (allocation of profit and fees) are made automatically, strictly on time and in accordance with the Offer Conditions that were accepted by the Followers.

Thezig Posted January 31, 2021 Report Share Posted January 31, 2021 How to start Forex trading? Whether a currency is increasing or declining in value, there is always a way for you to make money in Forex Consider a national currency as a security, like stocks, commodities or precious metals. The recipe for success is to buy it at the cheapest price and then sell at a higher price. Or the other way round – sell at a higher price and then buy cheaper. Whether a currency is increasing or declining in value, there is always a way for you to make money in Forex! Knowing the right time to buy or sell will do the trick. This is where market analytics, indicators, signals and automated trading systems come in handy. Let's consider an example: Currencies are traded in pairs. For example – Euro against US Dollar (EUR/USD) or British Pound against Japanese Yen (GBP/JPY). A Forex transaction involves buying one currency and selling the other currency at the same time.The exchange rate reflects the value of one currency against the another currency, For example, the quote USD/CHF 0,93160/0,93170 shows, how many Swiss Francs you need to pay to buy or sell 1 US Dollar. Currency exchange rates are always fluctuating depending on the time of the day, the country's central bank rate, government policy, market sentiment and many other reasons. Let's assume the market forecast the Euro is going to appreciate against US Dollar (bullish trend for EUR/USD). You decide to buy Euros with USD (buy order on EUR/USD). After some time you decide to sell the Euro at a higher price (close the open EUR/USD position). Your profit is the difference between the opening and the closing prices. How much money do you need to start trading Forex? In order to attract traders, many forex brokers, including FXOpen, offer to start trading without a starting deposit. You can start trading with us without money from $10, which are credited to you as a welcome bonus to a newly opened active STP account after passing the verification. Learn the basics of currency trading Remember that Forex trading involves high risk. There are limitless opportunities to make profit and your potential gain is very high. However,the risk of loss is high as well. If you make an independent and informed choice to become a Forex trader, you should always follow the basic risk management rules. It's not an easy task but it's very important whether you trade with a few hundred dollars or operate millions. Taking a good Forex education course may be the best investment you'd ever make in your trading career. Take your time to study the basics of trading and practice it in a demo account before you start trading with real money. Always be sure to follow the rule - never trade with money that you cannot afford to lose.
