On Saturday, the 4^th of August, traders in Laos came together in the capital city of Vientiane for a fascinating seminar – ‘How to Trade the Forex Market’ – sponsored by FXTMPartners.

The event was a great success! We enjoyed a huge turnout of traders keen to hear market insights from FXTM’s forex expert. The seminar took place in the elegant surroundings of the Crowne Plaza – and everyone enjoyed the complimentary coffee and delicious lunch provided by the hotel. These refreshment breaks were a wonderful opportunity for attendees to meet and network with other like-minded traders in their region in a relaxed setting.

‘How to Trade the Forex Market’ aimed to give FX beginners a solid foundation on which to start their trading journey – however, there were also plenty of useful insights for more experienced investors too.

Participants in the seminar received practical insights into the fundamentals of the forex market and the key aspects of currency trading, including some tips on using the MT4 platform. The day ended with certificates for attendees, a photoshoot to mark the occasion and a prize draw in which two lucky winners received an iPad.

Some topics ‘How to Trade the Forex Market’ covered include:

• The history of forex and significant market participants
• The risks and potential rewards of foreign exchange trading
• How to read a forex quote
• Support and Resistance
• Technical Indicators
• How to trade on the MT4 platform

We were pleased to hear that attendees found this session so useful and hope to return soon to Laos for similar events!

Between the 27^th and 31^st of July, Andreas Thalassinos hosted his popular Ultimate Trading Formula series in Bangladesh, sponsored by FXTMPartners. The number of participants at both the engaging seminar and the informative workshop far exceeded our expectations, as forex traders from across the region gathered to learn from Mr Thalassinos’ sage trading tutelage.

What better way to kick-off the Ultimate Trading Formula than with a fascinating seminar in Chittagong’s beautiful Radisson Blu hotel? The day was filled with insights from Andreas Thalassinos’ own eclectic trading experiences, and punctuated with well-deserved complimentary refreshment breaks.

Following the seminar, the Ultimate Trading Formula continued with a trade topic-filled three-day workshop in Dhaka. In a packed-out events room in the Lakeshore Hotel, Mr Thalassinos educated traders through some of the most important trading techniques. On the first day, attendees learnt about tops and bottoms identification, on the second day they secured their knowledge of reversal patterns, and on the final day they delved into entry confirmation signals and received their workshop completion certificate.

We are delighted that so many traders attended the events to hear from a leading FX educator and are thrilled with the very positive feedback we received.

We would like to thank everyone who made these events such a success, and hope to return to Bangladesh soon.

On the 14^th and 15^th of July, traders in Vietnam flocked to the FXTMPartners’ Training Centre for an interactive two-day workshop. Participants were not only treated to insights into some of the most important topics in forex, but also enjoyed the expert tutelage of FXTMPartners’ own in-house trainer, Jeffrey Gi.

• Advanced features of MT4 – including how to modify the toolbar, products and services, account types, custom indicators, advanced candlestick formations.

At the end of each session, traders had the chance to put their questions to Mr Gi. After securing their understanding of MT4, participants eagerly returned for the second day, where they discovered:

• FXTM’s award-winning services and products – including the benefits of trading with FXTM, the unique features of FXTM’s trading platform, and the array of available account types.
