Forex Managed Accounts

The cornerstone of the financial services industry has always been diversification which has traditionally been linked to stocks, bonds, and mutual funds. Many of these investments though seperate asset classes are more often than not linked to one another."

Due to this link between securities-related Investments, many investors are discovering that a professionally managed Forex account can offer further diversification to their portfolio.

Depending on a managed program's trading strategy and leverage use, professionally managed forex investments can obtain similar returns to other security related investments. Partial allocation to a managed currency portfolio can therefore increase a portfolio's total diversification.

Any form of trading carries a substantial risk. Foreign Exchange is one of the riskiest types of investments, involving a high degree of leverage which can work for or against you. Only genuine "risk" capital should be used for a "Forex" managed investment. You should carefully consider whether a Forex managed account suits your financial circumstances. No consideration to invest should be made without carefully studying the applicable risk disclosure document and seeking professional financial advice.

Only the investor can withdraw or deposit funds to and from his account. The invested funds are not held by PracticalFX but rather by an established reputable trading company. (Trading Platform)

Security of Funds Disclosure

The transactions you are entering into with Interbank FX LLC are not traded on an exchange. Therefore, under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, your funds may not receive the same protections as funds used to margin or
guarantee exchange-traded futures and options contracts, which receive a priority in bankruptcy. Since that same priority has not been given to funds used for off-exchange forex trading, if Interbank FX LLC becomes
insolvent and you have a claim for amounts deposited or profits earned on transactions with Interbank FX LLC, your claim may not receive a priority. Without a priority, you are a general creditor and your claim will be paid, along with the claims of other general creditors, from any monies still available after priority claims are paid. Even customer funds that Interbank FX LLC keeps separate from its own operating funds may not be safe from the claims of other general and priority creditors.


In short at no stage does Forex Hometrader receive or handle clients Deposits.
We acts solely as the trader and intermediary between the client and the Trading Platform.

Availability of Funds

Except for the first month, there is no lock in period or penalties for early withdrawals on investments.  Monthly withdrawals should be lodged 7 working days prior to the withdrawal date. Funds can only be deposited into a bank account in the individual’s personal name. No third party deposits or withdrawals are permitted.

Fees

Trading fees are charged on a per trade and or percentage basis. Fee structures vary according to client needs and are based on either a performance percentage of monthly profits based on capital gains. (No profits no fees)

For example....HIGH WATER MARK CALCULATION: A clients may deposit, for example, $50,000 and the profit commission is set at 30%.At the end of the first month, the balance on the account is $52,000. First month profit for Forex Hometrader is $600 (30% of $2000) -$50,000 is the high watermark. The beginning balance for client becomes $51,400 (or $52,000 - $600) and this becomes the new high water mark. On the second month, the ending balance on the account is $49,000. No commission is paid, the high water mark remains $51,400. This example assumes that there were no new deposits (which increase the high water mark) or new withdrawals (which decrease the high water mark)

Alternatively a per lot fee (normally 1$ US per round turn trade debited to the account when entering the market is combined with a lesser performance fee. All fees are paid to PracticalFX by the trading company as agreed to with the investor in advance. (See Risk Disclosure)

Minimum Investment

A Minimum Investment of $3000 is required to participate in the PracticalFX managed account.
