Client funds held with GCI Financial Ltd ("GCI") are maintained in separate Customer Funds accounts and may never be utilized for operating expenses or for other purposes or commingled with GCI's operating capital.
Funds are withdrawn from these bank accounts only as a direct result of clients' trading activities or clients' request for withdrawal. In the unlikely event of GCI's bankruptcy, client funds are legally protected and returned directly to the customer.
Furthermore, GCI maintains a balance sheet with Net Capital in excess of minimum regulatory requirements.

Should You Trade FOREX?
Many traders find the FOREX market intimidating – but they don’t have to be intimidated and afraid to begin to trade FOREX. Any trader that is willing to spend some time getting to understand the FOREX market, and who is willing to become familiar with its unique characteristics, can adapt their trading strategies so that they can trade FOREX successfully. Then, instead of being wary of the market, they will be able to take part in the profits available in the FOREX market.
The potential to profit is great when you trade FOREX. FOREX is the biggest, most liquid market in the world. It operates 24 hours a day, five days a week. And it isn’t going to go away. There will be a need to buy and sell currencies on the market as long as countries engage in trade. And in today’s global market place the value of those currencies will always shift as the economic fortunes of the countries evolve. All these factors combine to create many opportunities to engage in profitable trades, at nearly any time of the day.

WHY TRADE AT FXCM
| FXCM's trading volume, $500 billion worth of transactions monthly, may be among the largest sources of retail currency trades in the world. As a result, we have obtained close banking relationships with eight of the world's largest and most aggressive price providers. Having multiple price providers is especially important in volatile markets, when one or two banks may post wide spreads, or simply avoid quoting any price at all. With so many major banks quoting prices to FXCM, there are competitive spreads, even during market-moving news events. |
Forex Trading Education

| FXCM has developed a series of courses that are designed to teach the novice trader to trade like a professional. | |

Trade Around the Clock
| The forex market is a near-seamless 24-hour market. Subject to available liquidity, FXCM offers trading from Sunday, starting after 5:15 PM EST, until Friday, 4PM, EST (FXCM Client Service is available 24/7). With the ability to trade around the clock, currency traders have the advantage of customizing their own trading schedule; they can usually get in or out of the market at any time without waiting for an opening bell or encountering a market gap. While trading stocks after usual market hours is possible, very often that possibility is negated by a lack of order flow or a drastic widening of the bid-ask spread. |
 |
Pay No Commissions*
| In the forex market costs are confined to the bid-ask spread. FXCM charges no commission or additional transaction fees, and its customers trade on spreads provided to FXCM by some of the world's largest banks via the FX Trading Station. In the stock market, “no-fee” programs are frequently offered only with provisos mandating minimum account balances or minimum trades per month. |
| * FXCM is compensated through the bid/ask spread except where otherwise noted. Please note commission charges apply for certain classes of non-standard accounts such as Active Trader. For additional information click here. |
No Uptick Rule
| Unlike the equity market, there is no restriction on short selling in the forex currency market, no matter which way the market is moving. Since currency trading involves buying one currency and selling another, a trader has the same ability to trade in a rising market as in a falling one. |
Forex Market Information Easily Accessible
| Information about stocks is abundant, but so are the stocks. Finding a trade opportunity in the equities markets may mean sifting through data on thousands of stocks, while the forex trader has only six major currencies to research. Additionally, the vital information that moves equity markets, such as revenues and profits, is proprietary and private. In contrast, virtually all of the news that bears on the forex market is in publicly disseminated reports from governments or research institutions, and released to everybody at the same time. |
| We feel that the knowledge you've gained in analyzing stocks can easily be transferred to the forex market. Many of the economic indicators familiar to equity traders, such as payroll data and interest rates, affect the currency markets. And many technical traders have found the forex market to be particularly attractive, since currencies respond well to many of the common technical indicators, such as MACD, RSI, and Candlestick charting. |
| To learn more about transitioning from trading equity markets to trading in the Forex market, contact the FXCM staff today at 888-503-6739. |
High Risk Investment
Trading foreign exchange on margin carries a high level of risk, and may not be suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to trade foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with foreign exchange trading, and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.
