Choosing a High ROI Managed Forex Account

By Brendan Wilson

Without a doubt the one key factor in sourcing a managed forex account is to make certain that you have control over your own account at all times. That is the ability to revoke the ability of the trader to actively trade your account and also to withdrawal funds at any time you wish. Any other situation leaves your account wide open to abuse, fraud and just general trader incompetence. Over the years we have witnessed many managed forex scams where funds have been fraudulently stolen or misappropriated leaving investors with little or nothing in their account. Make sure that before you send funds you are provided with an LPOA or "Limited Power of Attorney" form and that any funds you send are directed to the account of the broker, who is authorized to receive client deposits.

Most pooled investment accounts, where the funds are controlled by the fund manager or trader themselves normally do not offer this type of protection to investors. Those registered brokers conducting business in a regulated environment on the other hand are subject to such measures as minimum capital requirements as a high degree of statutory requirements that invariably include the implementation of regular and stringent audits.

Managed forex accounts are a great solution for those people who find they do not have the time or necessary skills to trade the forex market. This alternative allows investors to benefit from the opportunities made available in the forex market. However, experience has shown us that many investors are exposed to the darker side of managed investments, such as trader incompetence and less than scrupulous forex brokers.

Unfortunately in recent years we have seen a lot of managed investment scams, most infamous in recent history being perhaps the largest scam of all in the case of Bernie Madoff and his associated scams. This scam involved perhaps hundreds of billions of dollars of investors funds. This not only sent a jolt through Wall Street but also the whole managed investment arena worldwide. Here was a former NASDAC Chairman, someone almost beyond reproach and something of a Wall Street icon involved in the biggest scam of all time. The simple fact of the matter was that he had managed to scam even those charged with overseeing the industry and had succeeded in doing so for perhaps 20 years.

Managed Forex Accounts give people access to the unique opportunities made available by the Forex market. Factors such as liquidity, high volatility and leverage combine to make forex a suitably advantageous investment vehicle for those with risk capital and the desire to seek higher than average return on their investment. Of course it always needs to be stated that with these increased returns inevitability comes with increased in risk. Managing this increased risk is the key task for the money manager.

The principal purpose of any managed forex account is to achieve sustainable high, long term results, with a minimum amount of draw down and a demonstrable long term record. Search for an investment provider who can prov these attributes over an extended period of time. Three to 6 months of trading statements is simply insufficient to make an informed opinion on the longer term prospects of a managed investment offering. - 31876
