Trading Platform.
FOREXTrader – Trader Workstation - FOREXTrader is FOREX’s flagship trading platform. The system is easy to navigate, and one account gives you access from desktop, mobile, or tablet devices. In this tutorial, we will go over the web-based version. When you log into FOREXTrader, you will see your trader workstation. It features a chart area on top, an account manager pane on the bottom, and a watch list and news feed on the right.
FOREXTrader – Symbols - FOREXTrader is all about currency trading, and you’ll be able to trade a number of currency pairs, both major and minor. In the search bar above the chart, start entering a symbol to see all the available pairs that match your search and choose the one you want by clicking on it.
FOREXTrader – Currency Pairs & News Headlines - When you’ve loaded a symbol, the platform will populate the chart as well as update the Details frame and load relevant news Headlines . These both appear on the lower right of the trading workstation.
FOREXTrader – News Story - Click on any item in the Headlines window to bring up the full text of the story on your trader workstation.
FOREXTrader – Entering Orders - Ready to place an order? There are two main ways to load an order entry ticket. The simplest is to click on the Buy/Sell panel, which is outlined here in red. You can move this panel around the screen by clicking and dragging the window to where you want it. You can also load an order ticket by right-clicking on a chart and choosing trading from the menu it produces.
FOREXTrader – Order Entry Ticket - To place an order, use the order entry ticket. Choose buy or sell, what type of order you want, and then the price and quantity. Click on the Buy or Sell button at the bottom to enter your trade.
Portfolio & Account Management.
Account Manager – Positions - After you’ve executed a trade, it will appear in the Account Manager pane on the bottom half of the workstation under the Positions tab, which includes your unrealized gain or loss so far. Right-click on a position to bring up a menu where you can close out or reverse your position. Click the small "X" icon at the far-right of any row to automatically close out a position with a market order. Along the top of the Account Manager you’ll also get an up-to-date summary of your account balance, P&L, and margin balance.
Account Manager – Orders - Your unfilled or working orders will appear in the Orders tab in the Account Manager window, along with a record of completed orders. Right-click an open order to modify or cancel it.
Investing Watchlist – Symbols - You can add the tickers you are most interested in monitoring to the Watchlist frame, which appears on the upper-right corner of the trader workstation. Click on a symbol to load it into the charts and order ticket.
Trading Tools.
Charts – Charts Overview - If you’re into technical analysis and charting, FOREXTrader is the place for you. There are tons of charting features and analysis tools that you can overlay or draw onto your charts to help determine when to buy and when to sell. You can change the time frame of the chart by clicking on the options on the bottom left of the chart window – from five-year to one-day charts. You can also select which type of chart you want to see by clicking on the icon above the chart, as well as update your charting preferences by clicking on the gear icon. Use the Overlay button to add one or more other symbols on top of the current chart.
Charts – Pattern Analyzer & Toolbar - The charts toolbar appears to the left of the chart window and has numerous powerful technical tools. You can draw on and annotate your charts as well as overlay indicators and pattern analyzers to help with your trading decisions.
Charts – Indicators - The charting tools come loaded with commonly used indicators (and some less common ones) that you can add to your charts. Click on the Indicators button above the charts window to see what’s available. Then click on any indicator to add it to your chart. You can click multiple indicators to stack as many as you like.
Charts – Layouts - If a single solitary chart just isn’t doing it for you, you’re in luck – you can add up to eight chart windows. Click on the layouts icon above the chart window and select how many charts you’d like and how they should be arranged from the pre-loaded configurations. You can name and save your charts layouts and load them for future use.
Chart – Right-Click Menu - Right-click anywhere on a chart to bring up a useful menu. From this menu you can place an order to trade, add the symbol to your watch list, or update and add layers to the chart itself.
Workstation – Tools Menu - If you’re looking for economic data or research on a specific currency pair or the market more generally, check the Tools menu along the right side of the workstation, here highlighted in red.
Tools – Economic Calendar - Economic data releases and geopolitical events drive FX markets. Click on the Calendar icon to launch an economic calendar of current and upcoming events. You can browse by time frame or filter by keyword, date range, country, or event category.
Tools – Latest Research - For in-depth currency market research, click on the Research icon, which looks like a light bulb. This will open a new browser window with the latest FX analysis.
Tools – Platform Tutorials - If you need some help with FOREXTrader or with your account, you can click on the Live Chat button under Tools to talk to customer support in real time. You can also select Video Tutorials to view in-depth videos on how to use FOREXTrader and all of its functionality.
Education & Resources.

You can find it by clicking on the Education link along the top menu of the website. If you don’t know exactly what kind of trader you are, you can take the Trader Type Quiz to find out.

Trading Computers.
If you increase the speed of computers by 20% then the performance of that computer will increase by 20%. We do that best.
Cheap computers require Intel to rate their processors slower than they can safely go. Our motherboards have 12-16 voltage regulators vs. the 2-3 that is typical of cheap computers. More voltage regulators mean smoother voltage delivery and much better stability. Our motherboards are also more precise in setting the correct voltage.
With smoother power and more precise voltage control, our computers can go faster.
There are bad practices in the computer industry. Intel has put out warnings on these bad practices. We are careful to deliver to you the fastest possible computer that is within the safe operating parameters of the CPU. We have been doing this for over 8 years and we are an Intel Gold partner.
For the best trading computers, go with Falcon Trading Computers.
All of our trading computers are built and supported by our staff.

How it Works.
The TWS PaperTrader works just like your production account. You can use most IB order types, trade all instruments available through the TWS, and experiment with almost every aspect of the TWS platform. The PaperTrader interface clearly indicates that you are working in a simulated account. If you do not see this, you are trading in your production account and will be liable for all trades that fill. Trades entered into this paper trading account will not actually execute on any exchange or settle at a clearing house. However, the price of your executions will be determined by real market prices and sizes. Trading permissions, market data subscriptions, base currency, and other account configurations are the same as specified for your regular account. A paper trading account statement will be provided each day and is available by logging into Account Management with your PaperTrader login and accessing the Reports menu. All clients will start with USD 1,000,000 of paper trading Equity with Loan Value, and this equity will fluctuate as if the trades had executed in the real market. You may reset your cash equity at any time by accessing Account Management for your paper trading account and selecting the Trade menu. Your account will be reset to the greater of either USD 100,000 or five times the total equity of the your production account. Note that reset requests should be entered before 16:00 ET in order to take effect for the next business day.
Limitations.
Although the paper trading account simulates most aspects of a production TWS account, you may encounter some differences due to its construction as a simulator with no execution or clearing abilities. These differences include but are not limited to:
No support for some order types including: Passive Relative, Auction, RFQ, and Pegged to Market. Fills are simulated from the top of the book; no deep book access. Limited combo and EFP trading. Stops and other complex order types are always simulated in paper trading; this may result in slightly different behavior from a TWS production account. Penny trading for US Options is not supported. You will be able to submit the order but it will not receive a penny fill. The trade simulator will reject the remainder of any exchange-directed market order that partially executes. This may or may not match behavior of a real-world exchange. Market orders received while there is no quote on the opposite side will be held until the market data arrives (i. e. until the first partial fill). Mutual Fund trading is not supported in a paper trading account.
