1. Is Forex Mentor a broker?
No. Forex Mentor is an introducing broker multiple clearing firms. It is in our best interest to introduce you to the firms where we belive you will get the best pricing as well as execution on your orders.
|
2. Why do you give your software and eSignal data away for free?
We are compensated by a volume rebate paid by the clearing firms that we refer our clients to. Our Professional Software normallly sells for $2,000 or leases for $150 per month and the eSignal data feed costs about $139 per month. By trading through one of our recommended clearing firms, we are able to offer our software to you absolutley Free!
There are two reasons why we are giving our software away for FREE. The main reason is that our software offers our clients the tools that are presently unavailable in any other forex trading platform that we know of. We have experience teaching (our mentorship program and live chat room) new traders and can see the results. Many of our traders are extremely happy with our software. Listen to their testimonials. Secondly we felt most new traders could not justify spending 15% of their account value each month on software and data feed expenses and we would therefore attract fewer traders. We also did not want our new traders taking unnecessary risks trying to cover their relatively high monthly costs.
By giving our software away for free we are getting hundreds of traders we wouldn't normally have. They are telling their friends how much they enjoy trading with our software, and how good our training is and we are getting even more customers who would have never heard of us. And by training our traders how to successfully trade the Forex markets, we are getting paid on the back end through being Introducing Brokers. We have found that as traders start making money trading the Forex they trade more and increase their trading size from mini sized to full sized contracts.
In our opinion this is the most incredibly fair Forex deal available anywhere. You the trader get $3,000 per year worth of software and data absolutely free! We really make very little off of smaller sized traders until we can teach them how to make money. So you see our best interest is doing everything we possibly can to help you make money. We recently opened up a Live Chat Room to further help our traders learn how to trade. You will be trading side by side with the inventors of the software and traders with thousands of hours of trading experience!

3. What exactly do you offer??
By opening an account through one of our qualified partner firms, Forex Course is going to give you our professional charting and analysis platform absolutely FREE. In addition you will also receive eSignal data (A $139/mo value).
|
4. How does your service differ from other Forex brokers?
Forex Course will give you our Software and the eSignal data
that it needs absolutely free. Our Software is one of the most sophisticated
forex market analysis platforms available anywhere. For example, you
can see on the chart how much buying and selling is going on, statistical
high and lows of every hour in advance for lower risk places to buy
and sell, and many buy and sell signals (Trend Snapback, Squat Bars,
Trend Reversals). In addition we have intelligent volatility based
trailing stops that keep you in trends to maximize your profits and
reduce your risk.
|
5. What is your current commission rate?
In Forex, the spread between the bid and the ask is your "commission". The lower the spread the lower are your trading costs. Some brokers, especially brokers without a dealing desk, typically charge a transaction fee on top of the spread. It is important to calculate the spread, transaction fee and/or commission per trade as your total up front cost per trade.
|
6. Are there any trading minimums to qualify for your free software?
Yes. We expect traders to trade a minimum of 10 standard sized lots or 100 mini sized lots per month. By trading with our software you also agree to place all of your trades through our Introducing Broker arrangements. We are only compensated if you trade and it is unfair to use our software tools and training and trade elsewhere.
|
7. How do I get eSignal data feed setup?
Once your account is setup and funded, contact the clearing firm where you opened your account and they will setup the eSignal data feed for you.
