Forex Traders Get Market Account Management Boost

New release of Forex Control Center software provides a common platform for Forex trading analysis and strategy planning.

Spain November 26, 2007 -- Forex Control Center announced today the release of a new software designed to specifically enhance account management for Forex market traders.

The largest exchange market in the world, the Foreign Exchange Market is popular among investors of all types. Yet, until now, the complexity of trading in the Forex market made controlling accounts difficult for even the seasoned trader. FXCC puts the complexity of trading on the Forex Market under easy control.

The idea for FXCC came from the need for Forex traders to organize their trades in a common environment to enable them to compare and analyze their trades and trading strategies.

“We understand that with the amount of trading systems, signal services, and brokers now in the market that a tool to centralize all the information is a must to save time for the Forex trader as well as to show what is working and what’s not,” said Sanz.

After nearly a year of development with a group of programmers and experienced Forex traders, Forex Control Center is one of the most advanced Forex trading solutions on the market, providing all the tools to give the Forex trader the edge necessary for success in Forex trading. FXCC allows the trader to analyze, organize, compare and customize all trading information in one common environment.

The first tool to include Metatrader 4® and Oanda integration, Forex Control Center allows traders to automatically import broker statements, analyze trading systems, and compare different strategies, customizing the way information is shown to find out which strategies are better and why.

Forex Control Center, www.forexcontrolcenter.com/ introduces FXCC software at a price of $149.00 with a special offer of free one-year maintenance, including technical support and automatic updates. FXCC is also available *FREE* for 1 account.

About Forex Control Center: Forex Control Center is devoted to developing applications and services for the Forex market. Our goal is simply to offer good software for Forex traders.

I have downloaded your software and am unable to import Oanda data.

There is no clear procedure described for importing Oanda data although the software claims to have an Oanda import engine.

The only documentation I can find on your website describes an involved and cumbersome procedure for editing a .csv file.

Please advise.

Hi WNW,

First of all, thanks for taking the time of testing FXCC.

About your Oanda problem. The importing process is pretty easy, and there is no .csv editing involved at all. The only thing you have to do is to get the "Full Transaction History" from Oanda with the format shown in the manual (Section Tutorials->Obtain data from broker).

Here you have a step by step tutorial of the process (you can see the images in the manual or online in manual.forexcontrolcenter.com):

- To import the data from Oanda you need to go to Account -> Full Transaction History option in your Oanda platform

- From there you have to check the different options, select the range and select .csv as format.

- We select all the types and the currencies to import

- Then the range of time

- The kind of data to import that should match the one shown below

- And finally .csv as format

- Once the data has been generated, you should copy it to a text format file (like notepad)

- With this data in a text file you can import it from an Oanda type account


However, if you find any problems with any step of this process you can send us an email to support@forexcontrolcenter.com, or if you want to send us a sample of the transaction history generated from Oanda we can test it and check what is going on with it.


Regards,

Fernando

Now if only you could integrate trade executions from MT4 to Oanda....now that would really be something! I could run my EA and send the orders to Oanda....But why would MT4 allow that?...I am dreaming...

Hi ES,

I know what you mean, but the idea of FXCC is just to analyze trading (after trades are done) so probably we won't go the way you want

Anyway there are some people working on that idea, and it should be possible to do it if you have an API from Oanda. Look for "mt oanda bridge" on Google and maybe you will find some hints.

Regards,
Fernando.

I had an interesting experience recently, I shared my computer screens with a contact during a ‘web ex’ meeting and demonstration. If you’re not familiar with this type of on line demonstration it’s fascinating; you join an online meeting were you share the information displayed on the screen/s and if you give your permission the other party can control your desktop, or alternatively you can lead and control the session.

He was demonstrating a public relations contact database to me as I’d quite simply got bogged down in a part of the programme, the solution proved to be child like in it’s simplicity making me feel a touch silly. Anyhow, his time and mine wasn’t completely wasted as we both learned something new; I learned how to create media prospect lists in a quicker way, how to merge the lists, export them to excel, to then share with others in FXCC etc., what he learned was more by accident than design…

During the demonstration the mechanical set up I constantly use for trading the euro (and the alert connected to it) sounded. The eur/usd chart instantly appeared. Naturally this interrupted our on line meeting which to be fair was nearing the end.

My contact was immediately taken aback, “whoah Paul, what is that?”. I wasn’t sure at first if the sound alert that had spooked him, in fact it was the chart showing eur/usd with all the various: indicators, trend lines etc. on it, together with the flash of data that had intrigued him, suddenly he got a glimpse into the world we operate in.

We spent the next twenty minutes discussing forex trading, in fact the meeting completely turned on it’s head, it now became me demonstrating and explaining; the charts, my indicator set up, how the daily pivot, support, resistance, the 200 MA, the time of day, depth of market and volume leads me to the decision to pull the trigger and enter the market.

My twenty minute demonstration was a filtration of many years of experience condensed into what works for me as a dedicated full time trader, it has taken years of bruising and testing to arrive at a point in time where I’ve discovered my edge and yet having arrived at the unconscious competence stage of trader development I can easily demonstrate it to a contact inside twenty minutes.

That’s not to say a lot of the info. I provided was intelligible to someone with little or no experience in our industry, undoubtedly a lot of my description would have been Greek to him, however, I’m able to demonstrate what works for me inside twenty minutes, perhaps less time to an experienced trader. This led me to a conclusion that perhaps we should all test our edge to see if a complete novice could understand it inside a twenty minute pitch? Surely we should be able to explain the basics of what we ‘do’ inside such a time frame (excuse the pun). If we can’t does the question need to be asked, “is it too complicated?”

My contact became excited by the concept of forex trading and trading in general, particularly as he saw me close a trade in profit and effortlessly swing in the opposite direction to again be in profit fairly quickly, it all looked and sounded so simple, if only every day was like that.

My thoughts also turned back to when I started trading, how daunting it was, how much research I undertook, the thousands of hours conversing on forums, researching articles, devouring information in books, talking to my broker, I wondered if there was a short cut, whether or not my public relations contact could cut out all my experiences (good and bad) and simply arrive where I’m at in a fraction of the time? No, is the answer, yes he could no doubt mechanically shadow my trades, or react to alerts we may send him, but there really are no short cuts in this business, you really do have to go there to come back.

You have to embark on an odyssey, a voyage of discovery in order to return to a safe harbour full of tales of wonder and excitement. You must live the full trader experience in order to condense and reduce your trading to simple components to become that weather beaten match hardened trader, omitting it would mean a vital part of your trader psyche has not had the time to develop. That development insulates you from the further tests the markets will undoubtedly throw at you as your journey continues, for however long you may decide to continue trading.
