SigmaForex LTD Regulations:

SigmaForex LTD working now to be regulated with FSA (United Kingdom Financial Service Authority) but now SigmaForex LTD is complying with FSA and many financial authorities like NFA, CFTC, FSC and others.

Why SigmaForex LTD not working in the regulation of NFA?

Most of Traders ask this question and it's a common question for any broker. Here's the answer; NFA (National Future Association) regulate the Financial Companies that based in United State and have Future Trading. SigmaForex LTD not inside United State and doesn't has Future Trading. But NFA rules are compatible with the rules that SigmaForex is following and you can check with your self.

Complying: Means that this company follows the rules 100% and meet their regulatory obligations efficiently.

Dear Trader, you must be involved and know the difference between FSA and NFA. Many Forex Brokers inside united State not regulated by NFA because they don't work with Future Trading but they are complying with them & follow the same rules as the Forex broker that regulated with NFA.

Forex Broker Regulation - Part One

What good is forex broker that you can trade and make money with, but when it comes time to take your money, they don't give it to you, because they don’t have it?

Forex Broker Bust Story. Refco was the biggest forex broker that was worth around $4 billion dollars. In October of 2005, Refco shut down its operations and every trader who had money with them got screwed big time.

Refco was regulated and for some time they were spending not only their profits but also deposits of their clients.
The amounts of money that traders saw on their trading platforms and the amounts of money Refco had in their bank accounts were different by $400 million.

So when the news hit the wire that Refco is running at such deficit, traders panicked and started asking for withdrawals. The only problem was that Refco was $400 million short of what it owed to traders.

There was a trial of course, and whatever assets the company had the court ordered to distribute among traders. I knew some people that had money with Refco. As far as I remember, after all assets were sold they got around 10% of what was owed to them. That means if person had $10,000 in his trading account, he got only $1,000 of it.

Forex Broker Regulation - Part Two

Difference Between Regulated And Complying

The Most Common Question that traders ask brokers is:

"Are You Regulated by NFA?"
"Are You Regulated by FSA?"
"Are You Regulated by CFTC?"
"Are You Regulated by SEC?"
"Are You Regulated by SIPC?"
"Are You Regulated by FINRA?"
"Are You Regulated by Mr.X?" :)

No, Don't Ask this question because there are many fictions regulations. Don't Be The Fish!
The Right Action to take is to compare between the rules and restrictions of the regulatory associations and the rules that the broker follow.

Complying With FSA means that this broker working in the regulation process and follow all the rules that the regulatory body has.

Regulated By FSA means that this broker already regulated by FSA & may Follow the rules.

Why?
NFA, FSA, CFTC, SIPC, SEC, .....etc all of these associations are private sectors in the origin. The Main Aim is to Collect as much brokers as they can to increase from their popularity beside the governmental associations
Do You Know that FSA, NFA or others charge Millions Of Dollars to authorize the regulation of brokers. All these money are distributed as following;
1- Part For The Tax Authority
2- Part For The Private Sector
3- Part For Governmental Sector
Some Brokers Play with these rules after paying all of these parts and it's time for scamming.

"Client terminal allows you to connect to any MetaTrader 4 Server. If you connected to another company's server from your client terminal, the parameters of that connection were stored in a special configuration SRV file in the "\MetaTrader 4\config\" folder of the client terminal.

To remove foreign servers from the server list of your client terminal, just go to the "\MetaTrader 4\config\" folder of the client terminal and delete the unnecessary SRV files.

What Is The Link Between SigmaForex And North Finance

Question: Is SigmaForex Partner with FXCM?

Question: Is SigmaForex Partner with North Finance?

Question: Is SigmaForex Partner With Interbankfx?

Answer: For Sure SigmaForex is an independent broker.

Question: Why I see in the statement of SigmaForex Another broker.

Answer: Because you don't follow the instructions of Meta Trader 4

Question: What are these instructions?

Answer: 1^st You have to make sure that your new installation is separated from the other installations that already exist.

Question: Please, open a channel of understanding for me

Answer: Tell You What?!

Look there is a problem in Meta Trader which is that most of brokers are using it as a trading station. Also most of traders are using it without any suffer because it's so easy & so simple while trading.

But because most of brokers are using it so you may find a conflict inside your Meta trader & another Meta Trader for a different broker inside our PC.

For Example: SigmaForex & North finance: the both are different brokers

After installing Meta Trader of SigmaForex & After Installing the Meta Trader of North Finance I found SigmaForex-Demo inside North Finance Meta Trader 4! I thought they are related to each others but the truth is that they are different independent brokers, but while installing one of them a file has been transferred from one Meta Trader to the other.

Open C:\Program Files\MetaTrader - SigmaForex\config

Open C:\Program Files\FxPro MetaTrader\config

You Will find SigmaForex.srv

SRV file is a linkage between your setup & the server of the broker, so if one or more from these files transferred from one setup to another it will show you two brokers in the same Platform!

Money Flow Index (MFI)

The Money Flow Index measures the amount of money flowing in and out of a security.It’s a good measure of the strength of money flowing in and out of a security.It compares “positive money flow” to “negative money flow” to create an indicator that can be compared to price in order to identify the strength or weakness of a trend.- A divergence between price and MFI often signals an imminent reversal of the trend.- Readings below 20 on the scale are considered oversold (bullish).- Readings above 80 on the scale are considered overbought (bearish).When analyzing the MFI the following should be taken into account: divergences between indicator and price movement. If prices increase and MFI falls (or vice versa), the probability of price turning is very high. MFI values higher than 80 and lower than 20 signalizes respectively about potential peak or foundation of the market.

William�s Percent Range

It was developed by Larry Williams. This system attempts to measure overbought and oversold market conditions.The %R always falls between a value of 100 and 0. There are two horizontal lines in the study which represent the 20% and 80% overbought and oversold levels.Indicator values ranging between 80 and 100% indicate that the market is oversold.Indicator values ranging between 0 and 20% indicate that the market is overbought.But we have to take in consideration that overbought does not necessarily imply time to sell and oversold does not necessarily imply time to buy so, it's very important that if an overbought/oversold indicator, such as Stochastic or Williams %R, shows an overbought level, the best action is to wait for the futures contract’s price to turn down before selling.So, you sell when %R reaches 20% or lower (the market is overbought) and buy when it reaches 80% or higher (the market is oversold). However, as with all overbought/oversold indicators, it is wise to wait for the indicator price to change direction before initiating any trade.

Stochastic Oscillator

George C. Lane developed the Stochastic Oscillator in the late 1950s.It’s a technical indicator which compares a stock's closing price to its price range over a given period of time. The belief is that in rising market stocks will close near their highs, while in a falling market they will close near their lows.The Stochastic Oscillator contains four variables:1) %K Periods: This is the number of time periods used in the stochastic calculation.2) %K Slowing Periods: This value controls the internal smoothing of %K. A value of 1 is considered a fast stochastic while a value of 3 is considered a slow stochastic.3) %D Periods: This is the number of time periods used when calculating the moving average of %K.4) %D Method: The method (Exponential, Simple, Time Series, Triangular, Variable, or Weighted) used to calculate %DSignals for buying & selling:- The signals of buying given when oscillator (either %K or %D) falls below the line, and then again crosses the bottom level upwards or when the curve %K crosses the curve %D from below upward.- The signals of selling when oscillator grows above the line, and then crosses the top level downwards or when the curve %K crosses a curve %D from top to downward.
