Programming Services

Custom Applications

Fundamental and technical analysis are not the only tools available to FXCM traders. FXCM also provides highly functional basic applications that are custom built for clients upon request.

The Trading Station II addresses almost all needs for general traders but often clients have a desire for unique niche functionality. Clients can now have Programming Services create an application to meet these special requests.

The standard hourly rate is $150 to code trading strategies. The average development time to code a strategy is from two to six hours, depending on the complexity of the strategy.

The standard hourly service rate is $300 for custom application development. Development time varies greatly depending on the project.

FXCM clients with a balance exceeding $25,000 are entitled to $600 of free programming services.


The following are examples of basic applications that FXCM has created that illustrate the diverse abilities of the FXCM Programming Services Team.
Orders2Go FXCMRTD is an application developed using Visual Basic that allows users of Microsoft Excel to extract trading information such as bid, ask, high, low, contract size, and other related information from their trading account.
Order2Go Alerter e-mails traders when a trade is either opened or closed, or when a pre-set price is reached.
FXCM Rates & News is a Google desktop gadget that updates rates and news in real time.
