Advantage Traders offers two distinct forex trading platforms: MetaTrader and DirectDealer. Both platforms offer superior pricing, unsurpassed reliability, dynamic performance, robust technology and 24 hour support. We suggest you discuss your specific trading needs with our specialists. CLICK ON THE BUTTONS BELOW TO RECEIVE YOUR FREE DEMO ACCOUNT IMMEDIATELY.
The MetaTrader platform is a ticket based platform whose salient features include advanced dynamic charting and analytics, hedging functionality, OCO orders and trailing stops. As a "ticket based" platform, the MetaTrader platform permits you to be long and short in the same currency at the same time and maintains the price integrity of your positions as you scale in and out of the markets. The MetaTrader's unique functionality offers traders at all levels an incredibly robust and dependable platform for foreign exchange trading.
The Direct Dealer platform is a "net based" platform. On a net based platform your positions are netted against each other and do not permit hedging. The visual display characteristics of the DirectDealer platform provide traders with multiple window arrangements and concise data presentation. The account reporting available with the DirectDealer platform is detailed and yet provided in a format for efficient tracking of trades and equity.
Fund Manager Platforms:
The Fund Manager modules offer Fund Managers, Pool Operators, CTAs, Hedge Funds and Asset Managers the capability to manage multiple accounts on one platform with either a lot allocation scheme or a percentage allocation scheme.
In the per lot allocation scheme managers can execute large block orders and the platform will apportion the trade on a lot basis across the accounts under management. The trader presets the number of lots each account is to receive and the platform allocates the lots across the accounts based on the preset scheme. The per lot allocation scheme is available only on the DirectDealer platform.
In the percentage allocation scheme traders can execute large orders and the profit or loss from the trade is allocated across the accounts on a percentage basis that is the ratio of individual account equity to the total amount managed by the trader. In this scenario the trader does not concern him or herself with the number of accounts and does not have to keep track of the number of lots each account is to recieve. The trader notionalizes the combined value of the accounts. If the combined value of the accounts he or she manages is $1,000,000, the trader focuses on trading that block amount. The profit or loss from the trade is allocated across the accounts with the larger accounts getting a higher percentage of the profit or loss and the smaller accounts getting a smaller percentage of the profit or loss.
