  List of Forex Managed Accounts

The Forex market has been traded publicly since the time of Elvis (1971 to be precise). A Forex managed program is just like a mutual fund, except that the managers trade currency pairs, instead of stocks and/or bonds. Forex managed programs used to be accessible only to institutional investors, but are now also available to individual investors.

As in any investment program, there is a limit to how much money a Forex managed program can handle before the sizes of the resulting transactions start producing diminishing returns, at which point the following programs will stop accepting new accounts. So, reserve your place today, while these programs are still open to new clients.

Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particularly trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk. Variables such as the ability to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses as well as maintaining adequate liquidity are material points which can adversely affect actual real trading results
