On the 11 March 2018 all our MT4 servers will change from GMT+2 to GMT+3 server time.

February sees indices markets closed in Hong Kong for Chinese New Year and in the US for presidents day. Both will most likely lead to quite low volume trading days.

Please see below Holiday Hours for January:

On January 8th 2018, Valutrades launched it's initial Crypto currency solution. The solution includes access to 3 crypto currencies a total of 5 tradeable symbols;

• BTCUSD
• ETHBTC
• ETHUSD
• LTCBTC
• LTCUSD

Trading is available via Valutrades MT4 and FIX API immediately. The symbols will also be available shortly on MT5.

Valutrades has just launched new tradeable symbols EURCNH, EURMXN, GBPCNH, GBPMXN, GBPTRY and USDTHB. All symbols are immediately available for trading for all of Valutrades clients on all servers.

Time-based intraday charts are based on a fixed time period for price candles like 5, 15, 30 or 60 minutes. Time-based candles don’t take volatility into account and make it very hard for traders to identify the best entry points when the markets finally begin to move.

Tick-based charts are based on any number of price changes of transactions - ticks. In periods of higher market volatility more candles will print, magnifying price action. On the other hand, during periods of lower market activity, fewer candles will print.

 iSignthis Ltd (ASX:ISX) (FRA:TA8), the world leading RegTech for identity verification and payment services, is pleased to announce that it has completed the integration of its services with UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) regulated Valutrades (www.valutrades.com), which offers CFD's and FX trading. 

Please be advised that on the 24th of September 2017, German elections will be taking place. Given the increased risk of volatility and potential extreme market moves Valutrades will be increasing margin requirements on European equity index CFD's from 1% to 2% 1 hour after each market closes on Thursday the 22nd of September 2017. We will reduce margins as soon as the result is clear and volatility is reduced.

As of today all clients of Valutrades will be able to trade XPTUSD (Standard) and XPTUSD+ (ECN) platinum products.

Today Valutrades has launched a range of new symbols all connected with the Czech currency CZK. The new symbols include EURCZK, GBPCZK and USDCZK and are already available to trade for all of Valutrades clients on both standard and ECN account types.
