what is forex managed account

  A managed forex account can give an investor who cannot watch the forex market 24 hours a day an opportunity to participate in the colossal world of forex trading (US$5,000 minimum). A managed forex account may also be appropriate for the investor who prefers to have his capital managed by professionals. Studies of professionally managed forex accounts have shown returns that are not related to the performance of the stock market. Consequently, allocating a portion of an investment portfolio to a forex managed account may be an appropriate way to increase the portfolio’s total diversification.
