FPG provides a designated account manager for all our traders which is a distinct competitive advantage. Many brokers simply provide a platform to trade with, with no continual support. The added advantage of having an Account Manager is to have a committed and knowledgeable individual with trading experience to assist any trader with a variety of queries and challenges.
Our Account Managers educate traders on a variety of topics in the Forex market including but not limited to risk management, fundamentals and technical analysis and provide factual guidance on the market.
At FPG we provide General Advice only. It is the responsibility of the Trader to determine if this advice is appropriate with consideration to your personal situation and needs and you need to decide if this is suitable for you before trading.
