Forex Trading: Now You Can Trade Small Lots With The New FXCM Micro
By Grace Cheng on August 20, 2008 | More Posts By Grace Cheng | Author's Website
FXCM has announced the opening of its discount brokerage division FXCM Micro. FXCM Micro allows traders to trade with super-low spreads, automated execution, and 1K lot sizes. FXCM Micro is offered for individual, self-traded accounts.
FXCM Micro successfully launched on June 22 with existing clients and has since fully launched, accepting new clients both domestic and internationally. Currently there are over 15,000 clients trading through FXCM Micro.
FXCM Micro is for traders who prefer the flexibility and convenience of trading in small (1K, 2K) lots, but are not willing to sacrifice tight spreads or quality execution. With FXCM Micro, you can open an account with as little as $25, yet trade with competitive spreads.
In order to provide clients with tight spreads for 1K lot sizes (as little as 15 cents per lot for EUR/USD), FXCM controls expenses, such as costly support services. Instead of providing these services to clients by phone or IM, FXCM has innovated extensive self-help sections so that clients can find immediate answers on the Web site.
