FAQs - answered by Beta 2 CEO Lane Clark
 
  
 
 
 
What are Derivatives?
 
Derivatives quite simply are investment products that have a price that derives from another investment. An example of this is a Gold futures contract, because the price of that derivative, derives from the price of Spot Gold. The derivatives we trade are FX, Gold and Silver.
 
 
Why do Beta 2 choose to trade FX, Gold and Silver?
 
Our main reason is because of the liquidity in these markets. FX in particular is the biggest market in the world. Group all the equity markets together in the UK and USA, and the FX markets are still larger. this allows us to be executed in and out of the markets relatively easy and stress free.
 
 
How does the current climate in the markets effect Beta 2?
 
Because Beta 2 trade with a short term view, and use stop loss orders on every trade, our aim is to take advantage of fundamental shifts in the market, and if we do find ourselves on the wrong side of the market, then barring slippage, we will be stopped out of the trade, very rapidly.
 
Also, if a market like equities is decreasing in value, then you will probably see a large effect on that countries currency. We could aim to capitalise on that by shorting (selling) the currency.
 
 
Is the use of leverage dangerous?
 
In the wrong hands- yes! If managed correctly you can utilise the benefits of leverage, whilst eliminating as much of the downside as possible. That is what our Investment Advisors aim to do, by implementing stop loss orders and utilising effective posiiton sizing strategies.
 
 
I often use 'stop' and 'limit' orders in my trading, does the derivative markets permit these types of orders?
 
Yes. You can control your entry and exit points by using stop and limit orders.
 
You can place a limit order to execute a trade at a price higher or lower than the current price. This enables you to enter the market at the price you feel is appropriate. To help control losses, you can place a stop order to close out your position should prices rise or fall to below the price you determine in advance.
 
It is important to understand that when a stop order is triggered your position will be closed at the next 'market price.' However, the next market price could be considerably higher or lower than the price of your stop order.
 
We also allow our client's stop losses order to trail their positions, so as the markets move in their favour- so do their stops.
 
 
How do I open an account?
 
To trade with Beta 2 you need to follow our straightforward account opening procedure. Beta 2 will provide a new account package, which you should read thoroughly before completing. The new account package is available either directly from your Beta 2 Investment Advisor or from this website.
 
During the account opening procedure one of our Investment Advisors will be able to discuss any queries that you may have about the new account package or about trading with Beta 2. Then, subject to account approval, you can begin to trade derivatives at your own pace.
