Who will be Chosen the Best Micro Broker of 2012?


News of forex broker rating. Every beginning trader that decides to become a professional, having completed forex training, faces a dilemma – which Forex broker to choose in order to open his first real trading account.

How to identify the best micro broker worldwide, which provides support in Russian, possesses starting deposit ranging from 1 to 20, maximum to 50 US dollars, has no experience of requotes, slipping, fraud, and deceit?

Why should real trading at forex market start with micro accounts?

In his interview to the “Market Leader” Canadian financial expert of Masterforex-V Academy Evgeny Olkhovski explained why beginners at Forex market should start real trading with micro accounts. His arguments are the following:
1. Opening a big real account in a broker company or DC is not only unwise, but even dangerous: mere people’s psychology or lack of experience often play dirty tricks. And forex market remembers every mistake. It was Aleksandr Elder who paid attention to the point that trader’s psychological problems (fear and passion) are one of the first and foremost reasons of loss at forex market;

2. At present over 20 forex brokers provide traders-beginners with a unique service of micro real trading accounts from 1 US dollar. The best forex training project in Europe, Masterforex-V Academy, highly recommends starting real trade at forex market with these accounts. When your trading system is working and brings profit, you earn money and gradually proceed to micro accounts (0.1 lot when 1 point equals to 1 US dollar) and then to standard forex with 1 trading lot (1 point equals to 10 US dollars)
Such sum is optimistic, as it relieves psychological pressure and fear to lose a large sum of money. As a result, you will have no worries and master your trading system. What is more, not many traders-beginners can afford a large deposit at the start;

3. How to choose the best out of 20 micro forex brokers who provide support in Russian? This is the hardest to answer. You can rely on the opinion of your acquaintances or feedbacks in blogs or social networks (over one half of them are, at least, not objective, at most – “designed”), various ratings, etc.

How to objectively choose the best micro forex broker?

In order to choose the best micro broker with Russian support, Masterforex-V Academy has started an open poll for forex traders:
what do points at the left mean? At the very beginning all nominated brokers are placed according to the number of their points in the general forex broker rating at Masterforex-V Academy: upper positions are assigned to those, whose spread is the smallest, receives least complaints from forex traders, has serious stock exchange licenses, work experience at the market, international awards, etc. (the total of about 20 objective and criteria that served as a basis for assigning these points);
how soon will the best micro forex broker of 2012 be singled out? On the basis of traders voting. Your vote “for” automatically adds point, and vote “against” takes off 1 point. Every attendant of forex forum (registration takes 1-2 minutes) can give one vote “for” and one vote “against”.

Therefore:
■ points in the first column show the reliability of micro forex broker according to 20 major criteria;
■ votes “against” give a serious signal for a forex broker about the reasons for discontent of its clients – forex traders;
■ votes “for” will show micro brokers, about who most traders have positive impression.

As a result, there will be formed a deep and objective complex assessment of over 20 forex brokers, who forex traders find convenient or inconvenient to work with.

What is the sequence of DCs at the beginning of choosing the best micro broker of 2012?

It is clearly observed, continues the financial expert, that at the beginning the brokers nominated for the best micro broker of 2012 that have highest points in the general rating (Nord FX, BMFN, FreshForex, Grand Capital, Alpari, RoboForex, and Forex4you) have advantage over their rivals.

However, the final position of every micro broker will be defined by the independent vote of traders at the web-site of the Academy. Any trader can assign his vote for or against any micro broker. Every vote “for” will add points to an applicant, and every vote “against” will correspondingly lower them.

Where can one vote for the best micro forex broker of 2012?

At the web-site of Masterforex-V Academy in the voting section for The Best Micro Broker of 2012. Unregistered traders are to undergo a simple free registration at the forum of Forex Academy. Then they have to enter the assigned login and password at the page devoted to choosing The Best Micro Broker of 2012.

As for the question about whose chances of winning are higher, the expert said that the management of the Academy may have its own opinion, which may be different from the one of most traders. Therefore, in order to avoid any influence on the results of the vote, the Academy abstains from giving its opinion and encourages every trader to take part in choosing The Best Micro Broker of 2012. Every vote counts.

“Market Leader” holds a questionnaire at Masterforex-V Academy forum for traders and investors: in your opinion, which micro broker can be considered the best?

Citigroup: Euro Zone May Follow In Steps Of USSR’s Ruble Zone

 

 

A couple of days ago Willem Buiter, Chief Economist of Citigroup Inc., introduced a new notion – “rublezonefication”. According the Western mass media (Bloomberg, The Guardian, The Financial Times, The New York Times, Forbes etc), the respected economist used this notion to describe the future of the eurozone.
 
According to Willem Buiter, the ECB may initiate the collapse of the eurozone by allowing the union’s national central banks to expand their balance sheets at varying interest rates. This was the mistake made by the USSR’s central bank before the collapse of the so-called “ruble zone”.
 
The thing is that not so long ago the ECB provided the national banks of France, Italy, Spain , Austria, Portugal , Ireland and Cyprus with the abovementioned freedoms. Despite the temporary nature of these steps taken by the ECB, Mr. Buiter assumes that the eurozone members may eventually go back to their national currencies.
 
Is the eurozone really in trouble?

Nuclear Energy: Present And Future

 

 

For decades people have been pondering on the same questions: Is nuclear energy worth betting on? Will it be the energy of the future? Is it too dangerous for the humanity to keep developing nuclear facilities around the world?
No wonder that there are many supporters and adversaries. Each party has weighty arguments.
 
As we know, last year nuclear energy became a special concern for the entire world. The Fukushima meltdown in 2011 (as the result of several earthquakes and tsunamis) reminded everyone that nuclear energy is as dangerous as powerful.
Shortly after the disaster, most nuclear countries started emergency testing of their nuclear power plants to find out whether they are safe enough. Some of them decided to abandon their nuclear plans.
 
Now let’s have a closer look at the results of such policies and the prospects of nuclear power engineering.

Will BRICS Save Eurozone From Crisis?

 

 

The eurozone is on the verge of collapse. Another attempt to resolve the crisis has failed. The multiple loans generously provided by the IMF, the EFSF and the World Bank to the sick eurozone economies of Greece, Portugal , Ireland hasn’t made a miracle.
 
Brussels seems to be ready to accept aid from anywhere, even from those countries that are not its allies or friends to, say the least. One of them are the so-called BRICS states (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa).
 
All of them are united by the dynamic pace of economic growth and considerable stabilization funds. Till autumn 2011 the EU was rather skeptical about BRICS. French, British and German mass media would often assault and criticized the informal union, its members and their relations. Later the situation changed when Brussels had to come back to earth and ask BRICS for help.

Forex news. Euro rate.
Psychologically, it is very hard to be a leader of the nation, whose neighbours and partners consider it to be the nation of idlers.
