Trading Account Types
Straighthold Investment Group, Inc. has developed 2 steps for working professionally on the Forex market. There are 2account types available to our clients, so each trader can choose to manage the Forex account he/she likes best:
LITEForex
The LITEForex account group has been developed for beginners above all, but can also be used by traders who wish to test their mechanical trading systems. The main advantage of the LITEForex managed Forex account is that you only need a starting deposit of 1 US dollar. After you open the LITEForex managed Forex account you can trade through our company on the same terms as other traders, who work on other account groups. The only difference is the operating amount.
This account type is limited to a maximal number (300 and less) of simultaneously opened positions and displayed orders.
REALForex
