With a strong reputation for its focus on offering premier customer support, European licensed online Forex and CFDs broker Tadawul FX, continues to prove that adapting to customers’ needs is of utmost importance to the company.

A few short months after the launch of its upgraded mobile trading platforms, including apps for Blackberry, Android, iPad and iPhone, Windows Mobile and Smartphone, Tadawul FX has experienced an impressive 175% increase in mobile forex trading volume. A web-based Forex trading platform which was simultaneously launched, and which allows access via mobile phone and PC, was also very well received and has been used extensively by Tadawul FX traders.

In line with the overall increase in trading volumes seen across the industry in 2011, Tadawul FX has also experienced a large uplift, both due to the growth of the company and its client base, and also due to the volatility of the markets, which translates directly into large market movements and therefore further opportunities for trades. Global factors such as the unrest in the Middle East, the UK riots, incidents of natural disasters and so on, cause great shifts in the markets, allowing traders to take advantage and capitalize on these upward and downward market movements.

Stavros Yiannakou, Chief Executive Officer of Tadawul FX, explains that the increase in trading volume has been significant this year. “The benefit of Forex trading, which makes it superior to other investment asset classes, is that it requires market movement to make a profit, which can be on either site of the market’s directional movements. So even in a downturn there is potential to make money. And the larger the movement, the more potential there is for profit. With clients from 142 countries, Tadawul FX has seen a marked increase in trading volume, especially from European and Middle East regions directly linked to these large movements.”

Thomas Papantoniou, Chief Operations Officer of Tadawul FX, explains the impact of mobile trading applications on this increase. “With mobile trading, Tadawul FX clients have more opportunity to take advantage of these sudden and large market movements and to better tap into the volatility to their benefit, wherever they are. So far, the most popular mobile apps for our traders have been the iPhone and iPad, followed by Android, Blackberry and Windows. The wide variety of platforms covered, coupled with the option of a web-based interface, and a large choice of language options, is giving our customers direct access to the MetaTrader 4 platform and eliminating the need to download the platform altogether.”

Papantoniou adds, “Platform non-dependency and the simultaneous launch in 10 languages were specifically intended to take advantage of this market volatility. Our mobile applications have all been designed with practicality, speed and user-friendliness in mind. Traders can monitor prices on Forex and CFDs in real time, create ‘favourites’ and ‘watchlists’ for specific interests key to their portfolio. Traders also have the ability to open and close instant market orders, amend and place existing orders including SellStop, StopLoss, BuyStop and TakeProfit. There are user guides available if needed, in conjunction of course with our 24 hour support. The intention of these applications is ultimately to better inform our clients, which will inevitably lead to better trading. Backed by the trading results of 2011 and the popularity of these mobile trading apps so far, it seems our clients are after precisely the same thing, which is simply another way to effectively stay on top of a fast moving market, and another way to make greater profits.”

FXCM US originally enhanced its trading execution policy in August 2010 to help ensure that clients benefit from positive slippage on all market, limit and limit entry orders.  The policy was further enhanced in December 2010 to address all order types, including stop and margin call orders, through FXCM’s No Dealing Desk (“NDD”) forex execution model. 

Under the terms of the settlement, FXCM US has agreed, without admitting or denying any of the allegations, to pay a fine of $2 million to the NFA and to provide restitution, which the company estimates to be $8 million, to the affected clients.  As disclosed on August 11, 2011 during its Second Quarter Earnings Conference Call and in related filings, the Company is making a reserve for both the restitution and fineassociated with this settlement and for its ongoing discussion with the CFTC.  Certain partners of FXCM Holdings, LLC have agreed to reimburse the expense in substantially the amount of such reserve, resulting in no impact to the net income of FXCM Inc.  All clients receiving restitution will be notified within 30 days.

“We are pleased to have reached an agreement that resolves the NFA’s concerns and that we believe is in the best interests of FXCM, our shareholders and most importantly, our clients,” said Drew Niv, Chief Executive Officer of FXCM.  “We previously enhanced our execution system to pass along all price improvements on every order type and remain committed to providing the most robust forex trading platform available.”

FXCM’s platforms display the best bid/ask spread streamed from the firm’s liquidity providers plus FXCM’s mark-up.  Every FXCM NDD forex trade is automatically offset in a two-step process, designed to ensure that FXCM does not profit from a trader’s losses.  In the first step of the execution process, a trader clicks on the price and the order is sent to FXCM.  In the second step, FXCM automatically sends the client’s order to one of its liquidity providers to offset the trade. 

FXCM’s execution system prior to August 2010 only offered price improvements to clients in the first step of the process.  If a better price became available on FXCM’s platform in the fraction of a second after the client submitted the order but before the order was received by FXCM, the client would benefit from the price improvement.  However, FXCM’s previous execution system did not provide clients with price improvements in the second step of the execution process, even if FXCM was able to offset the order at a better price, excluding FXCM’s markup.  FXCM enhanced the execution system in 2010 so that clients now benefit from price improvements in both steps of a transaction for all order types.

The occurrence of price improvements is based on market conditions, including volatility and liquidity.  Of the approximately $8 million being credited to FXCM US clients under this settlement, approximately $650,000 represents trades placed in 2010, less than 0.3% of the company’s trading revenues during that period.  The largest portion of the credits relate to trades placed before 2009. For the portion of clients who are receiving restitution, the median amount will be $17.40.

As part of the settlement, FXCM also agreed to enhance its existing procedures to ensure the efficient execution of customer orders, modify its adjustment practices and to ensure compliance with NFA’s anti-money laundering requirements.

Mr. Niv added, “FXCM continues to strengthen its compliance program and internal supervisory procedures.”

Capital Market Services LLC, a leading Forex brokerage firm, has partnered with Red Paladin Inc., a technology firm that specializes in Cloud Services, to offer the CMS Virtual Desktop Interface (VDI) for Forex trading.

CMS VDI supports MetaTrader 4, ForexTraderPro and VT Trader 2.0. Using a browser window, traders can access their demo or live accounts on their virtual environment from anywhere and place trades, upload and configure EA’s, set preferences, and even request custom applications or tools such as Autochartist or Microsoft Excel.

VDI services take the traditional Forex VPS model to the next level by offering traders a dedicated virtualized machine as opposed to space on a large shared server like most standard VPS products.  This service eliminates the need for physical hardware and its associated performance limitations, and protects users from the risks associated with conducting financial transactions on a shared network.

CMS VDI users’ machines live on a managed dedicated network where traders can leverage Red Paladin’s resources for blazing fast and consistent execution speeds from anywhere in the world. “The ability to run your EAs or any automated trading system in a professional server environment, without the worries of having to leave your home or office computer running and supported 24 hours a day is a major plus for serious traders,” stated Joshua Bernstein, Director of Sales and Marketing at CMS Forex.

VDI services are fully accessible from most mobile devices and experiencing MT4 or VT Trader on your iPad is a “revolutionary way to trade on the go” according to Mr. Bernstein. CMS VDI is free for active CMS clients and is available to anyone for $40 a month.
