Chief Aim & Purpose
Having a global perspective is pivotal to understanding the Foreign Exchange (Forex) market. The world is shifting and we all play a vital role in its change, regardless to our level of awareness. The advent of the Internet made the world more accessible to investors around the world granting the power to complete huge transactions within milliseconds. This technological revolution served another monumental purpose by permitting brokers to establish online platforms, which allowed individual investors to realistically participate in the international arena.
Some more than 65% of traders in the retail sector are continuously losing money. Are these all the same traders? If so, how can a trader sustain such losses and for how long? A better question, why are they losing? Is their broker robbing them blind or is the market that uncontrollable that it deceitfully turns against their favor every time they trade? Is the world's largest market really that unstable or unpredictable?
Some FX brokers have opted out of servicing the retail sector choosing instead to focus their attention on the institutional side of the business. Can't say they are to be blamed for inexperienced retail traders can cost a company a lot of money in frivolous claims and lawsuits. Now this in no way exclude brokers from fraud or unfair trading practices, but research has proven time and time again that most retail traders lack basic fundamental knowledge about business or investing and really have no business trading at all, especially in the Forex market.
Due to a lack of real regulation for a period stretching more than ten (10) year, the Forex market was highly misrepresented to most novice traders who quickly became the prey of an endless list of Forex marketeers luring them into buying their latest and greatest 'get rich quick schemes.' There is no 'holy grail' in any market and Forex is no exception. Yes there are trading systems that work and they are based on certain economic principles of supply and demand, but how many retail traders have ever taken a course in microeconomics? They are typically hardworking people who are simply looking for better days ahead.
There are professional traders in the Forex market who make up the minority that are profitable, but they rarely (if ever) spend time marketing products to newcomers - they work for large institutions, hedge funds, multinational corporations - so therein lies the gap between the masters and the initiates.
The sole objective of Paradigm Forex rests in developing profitable traders, seeking to fill in the market 'gap' by providing the knowledge and resources that are essential for the realization of a profitable portfolio. The Interbank dealer desk has been transformed into a laptop computer. A professional trader must think and act like a bank for those the real 'market makers.'
