Before getting fully immersed in the whirl of stock market trading, every future trader tries to define the camp they want to join - the market of securities and futures or the forex market. It is hard to give advice here where exactly one has to invest. Determining the future style of the game is very individual. However, one should clearly differentiate between these two so distinctive areas.
How is stock exchange and forex trading different? What are their respective advantages?
Despite the obvious connection between the stock exchange and the forex, there are some fundamental differences in how they operate. Many forex experts tend to believe lower risks are intrinsic to currency trading unlike stock buying because forex news is relatively steady and is released at a scheduled time (for example, statements by heads of national banks) whereas stock news is often unpredictable and unexpected. Naturally, one may disagree with this claim based on the crazy pace that forex traders sometimes have to operate at when news is released. Of course, risks significantly grow in such events. On the other hand, one can minimize their risks by trading in the stock market, studying analytics and forecasting stock price movements. Besides, trading in the stock market requires larger accounts than in the forex but the income they generate is also larger. Most brokers that offer stock market instruments place orders directly in stock exchanges. Private company MASTER BROK is among the leaders in the Ukrainian market.
What does MASTER BROK have to offer its clients?
The company dates back many years into the past, to 1994, when it started its stock operations. MASTER BROK is known as an active player in the Ukrainian stock market and has a reputation of a reliable company among both investors and traders. It offers its customers broking services in the term (futures) and over-the-counter stock markets, financial consultations and asset management. The company also provides online trading services enabling its individual private investors to take better advantage of the company's capabilities. Currently MASTER BROK is a member of the Stock Section of Perspektiva Stock Exchange and the Stock Section of the Ukrainian Stock Exchange.
The company's main trading instruments include:
1. The securities market (SPOT). This is the market where securities buy and sell orders are made on conditions of immediate delivery and payment. By using SPOT online trading, a MASTER BROK's customer can buy a Ukrainian issuer's stocks which means they become the owner of these stocks and this enterprise's stockholder. Income is generated by stock price differences and dividends the stockholders get paid by the enterprise.
2. Options. They involve trading the rights because this kind of contract enables the buyer or seller to sell or buy a commodity at a previously agreed price in the future.
3. CFDs (Contracts For Difference). The parties agree to pay each other the difference between the asset's current value and value at the time the contract is terminated or expires. The contract may be terminated by only one party. One can benefit both from growing and falling prices of the commodity.
4. Trading futures contracts. This involves a settlement at exercise time in an amount of the difference between the contract price and the asset's price at exercise time without delivery of the asset. Exercise price is based on the average value of the index of the Ukrainian Stock Exchange on the last day this futures contract is traded.
Today MASTER BROK is prepared to support trading in stocks of Ukrainian issuers (181 instruments), bonds of Ukrainian enterprises (100 instruments), investment certificates (17 instruments).
MASTER BROK has a wide network of branches. The broker's offices are based in Donetsk and Dnepropetrovsk, Vinnitsa and Yevpatoria, Zhitomir and Zaporozhe, Ivano-Frankovsk and Kerch, Kiev and Kirovograd, Kremenchug and Krivoy Rog, Lugansk and Lvov, Mariupol and Nikolaev, Odessa and Poltava, Rovno and Sebastopol, Simferopol and Ternopol, Uzhgorod and Kharkov, Kherson and Khmelnitsky, Cherkassy and Chernigov, Chernovtsy and Yalta.

There are theoretical and practical programs developed to teach trading. Beside, in conjunction with Teletrade D.J., an international company, MASTER BROK organized a traders' school where master classes, workshops and individual practical sessions are delivered.
