WHO IS IT FOR?
  • Designed for experienced traders that have $2,000 to $25,000
    to begin trading.
  • Recommended that you open an FXCM Standard account with $10,000 or more. Since leverage magnifies both gains & losses, a larger account size will enable you to use less leverage. We believe that most traders benefit from using between 4:1 and 20:1 leverage*.
  • Highly trained professional staff, many of whom are active traders. Traders have access to client support 24 hours a day by phone, e-mail, or live chat. This is only available to FXCM Standard accounts.
