DealCancellation by easyMarkets

The logic is very simple.

90% of the traders loose money in the market and hence, they will not send any deal cancellation orders to the inter-bank and hence, almost no risk of loss from their pocket.

In return, they will get huge amount commissions for each and every trade for both profitable and non profitable. So paying few profitable trades from that huge commissions will not be a big deal for them.

I jus tested it a bit. I see two main flaws here:

1. You pay the fee in any case (if the trade goes your way or against you)
2. The fee goes quite high if volatility increases.

So to be profitable in that 1 hour the move has to be significant.

So if I understand it correctly, I can open a long and short position at the same time, leverage it up by 100 times and once the fx spot changes by 50 pips I close both positions (within 1 hour ofcourse). With this I gain a 100% guarantee profit, if the cancellation fee is lower than the realized profit of the winning trade.

If this is true, than why is this trading suggested primarily for new fx traders? I mean, this way you can not loose. Where is the catch? Is the insurance fee then higher than the winning trade?

Tnx

You cannot hedge the 'same' currency pair and use this feature at the same time, that is the catch.

Hmm, that is very interesting. Might give it a go with 1000$ for the next NFP. Fee doesn't seem to high either and might even work for less impact news.
