In only 2 months since its launch, MahiFX has shown a considerable desire to respond directly to the needs of its traders and potential traders. In addition to a full homepage redesign which makes the company's information significantly easier to access, the Forex brokerage has just launched a collection of charting tools and indicators which is integrated directly into the company's proprietary trading platform. The new Forex charting tools are fully customizable and enable traders to follow many common indicators including MACD, WMA and others. Traders can also zoom, draw on the charts and trade directly from the charts if they so desire.

Considering that Kim Kardashian elected to end her highly publicized (and ridiculously expensive) marriage after only 72 days and that Carmen Electra and Dennis Rodman's blessed union lasted under 300 hours, it shouldn't be entirely surprising that the previously idyllic is now being called into question, with strong rumblings of a Greek exit from the union (already dubbed a ‘Grexit' by media outlets worldwide). The EU is only around 12 years old, significantly longer than most celebrity marriages, but still in its infancy as far as political unions are concerned. Although nothing has been confirmed yet, analysts can't help but wonder what a Grexit would mean, both for European countries and for global markets. The true ramifications of such a divorce may not really be known until a Grexit is confirmed, but there are some certainties that we can expect in advance of such an event.

In addition to the free news and limited analysis that the news agency provides for free, it also offers a range of paid services aimed at providing higher level analyses to investors of all types to enhance the efficiency of their trading and to help sculpt their trading strategies.

The launch of the MT4 platform on July 1, 2005 revolutionized the Forex world by providing a software solution that could be branded by Forex brokers to serve their specific needs. Since then, dozens of software companies have created complementary solutions, none of which could be fully integrated into the MT4 platform or branded completely by the broker. This is about to change, however, with the launch of Sirix by Leverate, a social Forex trading solution that will be available shortly and looks likely to take the Forex market by force.

When choosing a Forex broker, many traders look for a brokerage that has not only good trading conditions, but a reputable staff of analysts who can provide regular support and explanation of market trends. Among those that have shot to fame are Kathy Lien, formerly of Amana Capital.
