InstaForex participates in ShowFx World Conference in Slovakia
On April 16, InstaForex took part in the first financial conference organized by ShowFx World in Bratislava, Slovakia.
Two hundred traders gathered in London Hall of the Crowne Plaza Hotel to deepen their knowledge, gain new skills, participate in discussions and workshops, share their experience with fellow trading practitioners and meet members of the InstaForex team.

Moreover, the meeting provided excellent networking opportunities for both seasoned traders and market novices.
Faithful to its tradition, InstaForex held prize draws and raffles at the conference venue. Four lucky winners obtained $500 and $1,000 certificates with money bonuses to trading accounts and electronic devices from top brands – an iPad air and a Samsung smartphone.

Success story: InstaForex client increases his deposit tenfold from $1,500 just in two weeks
We are delighted to share another success story of our InstaForex client, the same trader as you are. Today we are going to tell you about Sergey Fevralyov, who managed to increase his initial deposit tenfold from $1,500 just in two weeks.
We have to admit that success did not come to Sergey overnight. He earned his luck through patience and hard work. Sergey says he has been trading on Forex since 2008 and joined the ranks of InstaForex traders in 2009, staying with us up to the present moment. “I started trading in 2008, when the market in Russia was evolving rapidly. After almost a year of trading with my first broker, I was disappointed with a number of conditions and left. I left for InstaForex," Sergey confides.
Actually, a tenfold built-up to the deposit is not the first time when Sergey succeeded in the currency market with InstaForex. Through 8 years of working in Forex, Sergey Fevralyov purchased a car for the money he earned from trading and now keeps on adding to his deposit and makes profit. He also regularly becomes winner and runner-up in various campaigns prepared by InstaForex. Sergey did not win a premium car, though he reached the top positions of the Real Scalping chart several times. Followers of the contest digest must remember his name re-appearing among the winners.
Sergey's latest achievement is an enormous success and demands a fair amount of luck because it is not that easy to boost the initial deposit in five or even ten times. Meanwhile, Sergey Fevralyov continues to make steady profits and increases trade volumes, being one of the most outstanding traders in Russia. It will be enough to mention that he holds an account with $45,000 involved in trades. Sergey reveals a serious approach to currency trading where the key to success lies in patience and experience. What is more, he is a striking example of a successful forex trader who has such traits as will and determination to make decent money.
“What I liked about InstaForex is their attention to my needs. I can always settle any issue with the team. It has been exciting to take part in contests. I even ranked high in them. I am also attracted by bonuses on every deposit. In order to make money in the forex market, you have to pursue your strategy and don't give up if you incur losses," Sergey Fevralyov comments on his experience.
We wish Sergey profitable trading with InstaForex! And we hope you, dear traders, have the same success stories with even bigger profits.

Change in trading conditions for several instruments from June 20, 2016 until June 27, 2016
Dear Clients,
The referendum on the United Kingdom's membership in the EU is to take place on June 23, 2016.
The referendum is broadly expected to cause turbulence in global financial markets no matter whether the vote will be for or against Brexit. Any developments in voting and any outcome will evidently make a profound impact on the forex market, first and foremost on the GBP and EUR currency pairs. Therefore, these instruments will be trading with record high volatility throughout next week.
To protect clients' positions, the company decided to change marginal requirements for certain trading instruments on a temporary basis.
The following amendments are introduced for the week from June 20 until June 27:
1.The minimum margin requirement could be raised to 2% for the following currency pairs: GBP/USD, EUR/GBP, GBP/CHF, GBP/JPY, GBP/AUD, GBP/CAD, and GBP/NZD as well as all exotic crosses involving the GBP.
2.The margin for some stock indices such as #N100, #DAX, and #FTSE could be increased several-fold from a standard requirement in case of higher volatility.
3.The minimum margin requirement could be raised to 0.5% for the following currency pairs: EUR/USD, EUR/JPY, EUR/CHF, EUR/AUD, EUR/CAD, and EUR/NZD as well as all exotic cross pairs involving the EUR.
As you are aware of higher volatility and big changes in marginal requirements, we strongly advise you to consider seriously that trading the above-mentioned instruments entails grave risks for the whole week.
Please adjust your trading strategy for the circumstances. You can either minimize or refrain from trading these instruments. Besides, make sure you have enough available funds in your account to maintain open positions.
We would like to warn you that such changes in trading conditions might not be final. In case of higher volatility and low liquidity, further restrictions could be imposed without advance notice.

Success with InstaForex: company’s clients closed more than 200,000 winning trades on Brexit news.
On June 23, 2016 the Britons voted in the referendum on whether the UK should remain or leave the European Union.
The outcome came as a surprise to most market players in Forex. On the day when Brexit was declared, InstaForex clients closed more than 200,000 winning trades on GBP, thus gaining total profit of over $6 million.
Importantly, despite extreme volatility and a complicated market environment in the course of the referendum and vote count, InstaForex offered the most favorable trading conditions, in particular leverage of 1:1,000 for several popular currency pairs. At the same time, a lot of brokers restricted leverage to 1:20-1:33.

Hedging now available on МТ5
Dear Traders!
You now have an opportunity to choose either a hedging or netting arrangement when opening an account for trading via MetaTrader 5 platform. MT5 accounts were originally created for exchange trading based on the netting system. This implies that a trader can only have one position opened on a given financial instrument at one time, and all subsequent operations on the asset will lead to a change of volume, closure, or reversal of the deal.
The new version of MetaTrader 5 now features the hedging system. It enables traders to open as many orders on a specified trading instrument as they like, including opposite positions. That way you can apply locking strategies, i.e. open an order in the opposite direction if you are already running a losing deal.
Both hedging and netting accounts have certain benefits. Before MetaQuotes Software Corp. added the hedging feature to MT5, traders who preferred hedging could only use the MT4 platform. From now on, hedging has been made available to MetaTrader 5 users as well.
If you are a holder of an MT5 account and would like to switch to hedging, please contact our client support team for assistance.
