Well look at that 

[yomofo]

are none of you guys concerned that the purchasing power (measured in fiat) of your account is not hedged?

what's the point of trading eurusd pairs when bitcoin's value drops 20% while ur trading?



gee let's go trade and profit on CFDs and ignore the fact that value of the btc collateral in the account can swing easily 10% in a day

WTF?

Well for me the 200x leverage is ideal for me. That kind of leverage is limited to 50x in the US FX exchanges. And then I pretty much convert most to fiat.

how do you hedge the volatility of the value of bitcoin deposits?  

example: i deposit 1 bitcoin at a current value of $200.  how do i maintain $200 worth of purchasing power in my account?  

if bitcoin value drops to $100/btc while i am in a position at 1broker that would significantly affect my margin call ratios, would it not?

All markets are settled in Bitcoin, so bitcoin price fluctuations are not affecting your trades.

are none of you guys concerned that the purchasing power (measured in fiat) of your account is not hedged?

There are dozens of brokers which accept Bitcoin deposits and convert it to fiat. (and thousands of (Forex) brokers which accept fiat directly)
1Broker aims for traders who are long-term Bitcoin holders and want to participate in global markets.

If you are worried about purchasing power measured in fiat and see Bitcoin as "yet another volatile asset", trading on 1Broker is the wrong choice.

best regards!

Are trailing stops going to be an option at some point?

Yes, although I don's see it happen in the near future.

I don't understand why the world exchanges have to stop trading at weekends considering it's all computer powered.

[Agent Provocateur]

Do you plan on adding Stop Loss Order, OCO, Trailing...? ETA?

Thanks.

I would really like to have the opportunity to enter a stop-loss order, at the same time as a limit order. One could then walk away without worrying about an executed limit order going completely against you.

They do not. Its just that the traffic is extremely low on weekends, and people are not able to get their deposits in.
Most of the exchanges do continue trading during weekends

FX markets open over the weekend?

Since when?

Greetings..

bitcoin trading account seems interesting.. Ive traded for years with 'normal' retail brokers.
So how does this compare to trading on mt4 or something like that?

Any experience/tips would be appreciated, thanks.

Cheers!

1broker's draw is that it enables you to use your Bitcoin to trade against other markets, with optional higher leverages than most exchanges. There is no barrier $ wise for entry to trade on the platform either. We have a very responsive development team, and a growing community around the exchange that is constantly giving suggestions and possible improvements they would like to see implemented.

I've been trading Bitcoin and other markets for just about two years now, and my #1 piece of advice is to learn personal risk management. Understand the products you are trading, and don't just trade blind. Do some research into the fundamentals, as well as the technicals behind market structures.
Welcome aboard, and I hope you have a positive experience.

These order types are something that a lot of community members have requested, and we are looking at implementing them. At this time, we don't have an exact date for this, but it is actively being worked on.

Yes. We are working on a lot right now, but you can expect this in the coming months.
