Forex Trading On Funds Provided by Others

Recommended Posts

I received an email (unsolicited) from this company. I have never traded the Forex. Is this a scam? Why would they do this? Anyone ever heard of Apiary Investment fund? Here is the link they sent me. They claim to teach one to trade the Forex and they will provide the funds.

Thanks for any info or knowledge you may have on this company or offer.

I am not sure if I am allowed to post a link like this on the forum? Actually I have never started a thread at all on Traders Laboratory, to my knowledge. I am mostly a lurker with an occasional post of my own. If posting this link isn't allowed I guess the moderator will take it off. In such a case I think one could just google the company. Apiary Investment Fund. I never heard of them before.

"Why would they do this? "

 

but wait, send no money now, there is more.

If you complete our course we may give you money to trade....course costs $X

Or you put in 25, we put in 100, when you loose 25 we cut you.

Plus you trade via against our market makers......

 

On saying that funds/prop houses are always looking for people, so blinkers on, blinkers off.

I would imagine that the trader receiving 20-30% of profits is generous..:2c:

Too vague at this level for me to have an opinion:

What is the cost of the course?

What amount of capital will you be allowed to trade with?

Under which conditions: broker, instruments, trading plan, draw down etc. ?

This is almost certainly a scam arrangement.

 

But I can tell you that trading others' money is so much more Stressful than trading your own money. Especially if the account holder is a Micro-Manager type of personality.

 

Personally, I find it much easier to take risk, and take responsibility if it's my own money.

 

You must be able to take Risk in order to Profit. And if you are hamstrung by somebody looking at your results every single day, you're unlikely to do well at all.

 

Even if you trading for a good friend, s/he's always looking over your shoulder...

 

Trade your own funds if at all possible.

    • Date: 25th November 2024. New Secretary Cheers Markets; Trump Trade Eased. Asia & European Sessions:   Equities and Treasuries rise, as markets view Donald Trump’s choice of Scott Bessent for Treasury Secretary as a stabilizing decision for the US economy and markets. Bessent: Head of macro hedge fund Key Square Group, supports Trump’s tax and tariff policies but gradually. He is expected to focus on economic and market stability rather than political gains. His nomination alleviates concerns over protectionist policies that could escalate inflation, trade tensions, and market volatility. Asian stocks rose, driven by gains in Japan, South Korea, and Australia. Chinese equities fail to follow regional trends, presenting investors’ continued disappointment by the lack of strong fiscal measures to boost the economy. The PBOC keeps policy loan rates unchanged after the September cut. US futures also see slight increases. 10-year Treasury yields fall by 5 basis points to 4.35%. Nvidia dropped 3.2%, affected by its high valuation and influence on broader market trends. Intuit fell 5.7% after a disappointing earnings forecast. Meta Platforms declined 0.7% following the Supreme Court’s decision to allow a class action lawsuit over the Cambridge Analytica scandal. Key events this week: Japan’s CPI, as the BOJ signals a possible policy change at December’s meeting. RBNZ expected to cut its key rate on Wednesday. CPI & GDP from Europe will be released. Traders will focus on the Fed’s November meeting minutes, along with consumer confidence and personal consumption expenditure data, to assess potential rate cuts next year. Financial Markets Performance: The US Dollar declines as US Treasuries climb. Bitcoin recovers from a weekend drop, hovering around 98,000, having more than doubled in value this year. Analysts suggest consolidation around the 100,000 level before any potential breakthrough. EURUSD recovers slightly to 1.0463 from 1.0320 lows. Oil prices drop after the largest weekly increase in nearly two months, with ongoing geopolitical risks in Ukraine and the Middle East. UKOIL fell below $75 a barrel, while USOILis at $70.35. Iran announced plans to boost its nuclear fuel-making capacity after being censured by the UN, increasing the potential for sanctions under Trump’s administration. Israel’s ambassador to the US indicated a potential cease-fire deal with Hezbollah, which could ease concerns about Middle Eastern oil production, a region supplying about a third of the world’s oil. Russia’s war in Ukraine escalated with longer-range missile use, raising concerns about potential disruptions to crude flows. Citigroup and JPMorgan predict that OPEC may delay a planned increase in production for the third time during their meeting this weekend. Gold falls to $2667.45 after its largest rise in 20 months last week.Swaps traders see a less-than-even chance the central bank will cut rates next month. Higher borrowing costs tend to weigh on gold, as it doesn’t pay interest. Always trade with strict risk management. Your capital is the single most important aspect of your trading business.
