“BUY LIMIT”

This field contains the order placement instructionsfor a given Forex trade alert and contains two parts:

The action – Buy or Sell
The order type used in order to carry out the action – Market, Limit or Stop order

“LAST PRICE”

This is the market price of the currency pair at the time that the alert was issued.

“ENTRY PRICE”

The “entry price” is the first of three sides of a fully planned trade. It is the price that the currency pair must reach in order for a position to be established.

“TARGET PRICE”

The target price is the second side of a fully planned trade. This is the price at which we will exit a position profitably.

“STOP LOSS”

The stop loss is arguably the most important side of a fully planned trade. It serves to minimize our exposure to risk when a trade goes against us. It is the price at which we will exit a position at a (minimal) loss.

“DURATION”

This is the anticipated timeframe for a given trade. Alerts are issued across three distinct timeframes:

Intraday – positions may be held for several minutes to several hours
Swing – positions may be held for several hours to several days
Long-Term – positions may be held for several days to several weeks

“R/R Ratio”

This is how we quantify the risk scenario for a given trade. Put simply, the R/R Ratio specifies the number of dollars one stands to gain for every dollar put at risk. In keeping with the sample alert above, an R/R Ratio of 2.75 means that for each (1) dollar put at risk, one stands to gain 2.75 dollars reward.

	>> *What is “Trade Alarms”?*
	“Trade Alarms” is a real-time Forex signal service, founded by the professional traders and analysts of FX Global Trading LLC. As active, successful participants in every major marketplace – including Forex, stocks, options and futures – we are confident that our knowledge and experience will add tremendous value to your trading results.

	>> Can I receive signals on my desktop and mobile device?
	Absolutely! In fact, we purposely created a redundant alert delivery system so as to ensure maximum reception of our signal service. Every alert will be delivered to your desktop, email and cell phone or PDA (via text messaging), so wherever you are, our alerts will find you.

	>> When can I expect to receive signals?
	Upon subscribing to our service, you will be instantly added to our list of alert recipients. In other words, you will receive the very next alert that FX Global generates.

	>> How many signals can I expect to receive on a given trading day?
	The number of signals issued on a given trading day is entirely dependent on that day’s market conditions. We do not issue alerts in order to meet a pre-set quota, as that would jeopardize the integrity of our service. Under certain market conditions, we may issue as many as 5-7 alerts in a single day, whereas other market conditions may limit the number of alerts to 2 or less. At FX Global, success is measured on the basis of profitable trading, not excessive trading.

	>> Are your signals issued in real-time?
	Absolutely! After all, a delayed Forex signal service would be of little use to aspiring and professional traders.

	>> How do I trade your signals?
	Our signals take the guesswork out of Forex trading. Each alert includes an entry price, a target price and a stop loss (for protection against adverse price movements). Moreover, we monitor each and every trade from start to finish, issuing follow-up alerts when necessary to account for the potential impact of changing market environments on existing positions.

	>> Which currency pairs do you monitor and trade?
	As specialists in the Forex marketplace, we constantly monitor 13 different currency pairs, which can be broken down into two trading tiers. The first tier comprises seven currency pairs that we actively trade. They are as follows: EUR/USD, USD/CHF, USD/JPY, GBP/USD, AUD/USD, USD/CAD and GBP/JPY. The second tier comprises six currency pairs that we trade less frequently. They are as follows: EUR/GBP, EUR/JPY, EUR/CAD, EUR/CHF, GBP/AUD and GBP/CAD.

	>> Do you offer signals for other markets, such as stocks, options and futures?
	Though we actively participate in every major marketplace, our signal service is presently limited to Forex trading. Nevertheless, your feedback and/or expressions of interest in additional signal services will help us decide whether to offer them in the future. Direct your thoughts to feedback@tradealarms.com.

	>> Do you offer Forex account (brokerage) services?
	We are currently in the early stages of establishing a relationship with a reputable FCM (Futures Commission Merchant) in order to offer full account services to our subscribers. Such a relationship will allow our clients to benefit from an “economy of scale.” In other words, the combined volume of trading done by FX Global and its subscribers will allow us to negotiate tighter spreads across currency pairs – an invaluable benefit where Forex trading is concerned.

	>> Do you offer a trial subscription?
	Absolutely! FX Global offers a fully functional 2-Week Trial Subscription to our powerful Forex signal service, which includes all of the features of a regular subscription. See our services page for more details.
