| Managed Forex:
Managed forex now makes it possible to receive fund management similar to that of which an institution would receive in an individual account, but with an opening balance far below the high opening balances with which institutions would normally begin. In the past, individuals who wished to open a managed account may have needed to make substantial deposits to obtain professional management or begin with less money and take a big chance with an inexperienced forex trader who seeking new accounts and thus willing to take small accounts. |
