Changes in FXOpen Partnership Program

Starting on April 3rd, 2017 FXOpen changes the terms of the partnership referral program.

In order to boost the development and improve the quality of our partnership program, we decided to put in place the minimum benchmark on the number of referrals. An agent will only be able to receive partnership remuneration after referring 3 new customers to FXOpen. Partnership commission under 10 USD will be displayed in the Partner's section as "Commission on hold" and will be added to the partner's balance after reaching the 10 USD limit.

These measures will be followed by several promotional offerings, such as increased partnership remuneration for particular currency pairs and improved conditions for new partners.

To take advantage of the FXOpen partnership program, register an eWallet via the link https://my.fxopen.com/en/Registration/ and follow the instructions to generate a referral link at https://support.fxopen.com/Knowledgebase/Article/View/105/607/how-to-generate-your-referral-link.

LTC AND EOS – FINAL PUSH TO THE UPSIDE COMING?

LTC/USD

From last Thursday, November 26th when the price of Litecoin was sitting at the $65 level, we have seen an increase of 42.64% measured to its highest point at $92.664 made on Tuesday. Since then the price has been moving sideways, spiking to the downside at first but then making a series of lower highs. Currently, it is being traded $90 and is starting to move to the upside again.

EOS/USD

The price of EOS has also been increasing from last Thursday, coming from $2.77 area to $3.315 which was an increase of 19.26%, but has since then fallen to $3 and is currently being traded at $3.1.

If that is the case then we could see it increasing past its highest point in December made last Thursday when it found resistance at the 0.786 Fib level. The price is likely to continue increasing from here but it could very well be another corrective move before the further decline is made so we are yet to see if it manages to break the Fib level resistance and continues for a higher high. Significant horizontal resistance is sitting around $3.3 area so it might end as a truncation before its completion.

NOVEMBER 2020 TOP 10 PAMM ACCOUNTS OVERVIEW

Summing up the results of November, we choose to monitor the most attractive PAMM providers for investment. Investors are mostly interested in good returns and low drawdowns. In today’s PAMM review on the eve of the Christmas holidays we will look at profitable PAMM accounts for a moderate portfolio.

By November 2020, there were 172 investment accounts opened in FXOpen and $2’106’389.00 worth of capital invested.

DevidGuetta

This PAMM provider has been demonstrating successful trading for almost the whole of 2020. At the beginning of the fall, the provider behaved conservatively, but in November the monthly profit was +7.31%. It is worth noting that they traded very successfully without significant drawdowns. In November, they traded mainly in cryptocurrencies: LTC/USD, BTC/USD, XRP/USD. The maximum drawdown in November did not exceed 2.51%. It is possible to join the provider with 100 USD or more.

MinRisk

This provider has been trading fairly confidently on FXOpen since July 2016. Since April 2020 they have been trading in profit with minor losses. In November, the profit was 4.56%, in December, the positive trend persists. Deposit load in November did not exceed 7%. The manager chart shows some spikes, indicating the use of averaging on the exit from the drawdown. MinRisk account style can be considered as quite aggressive, but profitable at the same time.

SuperSpeculativ

The provider has been trading at FXOpen for almost a year since December 2019. The year 2020 has turned out quite well for them. Since July, they have been selling at significant drawdowns, bringing in conservative returns every month. As a result, half-year earnings were almost 40%. In November, the income was 6.74%. It should be noted that the manager traded with minimal deposit load, which did not exceed 1.5% in November. It is possible to join the trader with only 100 USD.

BTC ENCOUNTERS RESISTANCE WHILE XRP FINDS SUPPORT​

BTC/USD​

The price of Bitcoin has been increasing from last Friday when it was sitting at $17,570 at its lowest point and came up by around 11.4% measured to its highest point today at $19,570. Now the price is being traded at $19,316 as it fell from today’s high and is now making a recovery.

On the hourly chart, you can see that this is a struggle for the price to keep up its bullish momentum above the lower horizontal level at $19,191 which represents the daily candle close from the 2017 all-time high. Since the start of the month, we have seen the price in a decline, forming a descending channel from the 1st of December. Last Friday the price found support on the 0.618 Fib level and started increasing again, breaking out from this descending formation and coming above the significant lower horizontal level.

Now as the price is getting close to the vicinity of the high made on December 1st it has started moving sideways which indicates that resistance has been found. If this is the uptrend continuation after the descending channel was a higher degree retracement, the price is now headed towards is higher high, effectively making a new all-time high. But first, it needs to break this resistance zone in between the two horizontal resistance levels, so we are yet to see if the price manages to do so.

If the price gets rejected once more at this range we could see a lower low compared to the one made last Friday which would mean that the corrective move from the 26th of November hasn’t developed fully, but if it manages to surpass the $19,677 level it would indicate that is headed toward the $21,000 mark.

PAMM for Followers

A Follower is a trader who probably lacks time, skill or desire for full time Forex trading. The Master’s trading strategy will automatically be replicated in the Follower’s trading account in respect of these selected funds. This allows Followers to receive profit without fully engaging themselves into Forex trading.

Benefits of PAMM for Followers

• Full control over funding and withdrawing

The Follower can add money to be used in the PAMM account or withdraw these funds at any moment of time without any permission from the Master. The Master has no access to adding or withdrawing the Follower's money whatsoever. So the scenario when a dishonest Master prevents a Follower from withdrawing money or fails to pay the profit is completely impossible.

• Automatic Allocation of Profits/Losses and Fees

All calculations (allocation of profit and fees) are made automatically, strictly on time and in accordance with the Offer Conditions that were accepted by the Followers.

• Public monitoring of the Master's trading activity

Choosing a lucrative Master’s strategy is a tough decision, however FXOpen's public monitoring system makes this task easier. With our visual and easy-to-understand charts both novice and experienced Followers can find a suitable Master.
