The Forex and CFD broker HF Markets or simply HFM, started a PAMM accounts service (managed accounts) for its clients which allows investing in the Forex market through professional account managers who are responsible for trading and managing the market open positions. In this case, the investors only have to deposit funds in their accounts and monitor the performance of the same over time.
It can be said that the PAMM accounts are an option for automated trading in Forex which is increasingly popular for the following reasons:
- The accounts are a good option to invest in the Forex market even for people without any knowledge about the financial markets. In this sense, PAMM accounts are also advantageous for investors with experience and knowledge, but with little time to analyze the market and trade on their own since this work is performed by the account manager.
- PAMM accounts offer the possibility to diversify investments. For example, a trader can have a regular trading account and a PAMM account with HF Markets at the same time.
- This type of account ensures that the account managers trade with the utmost care and risk control because their capital is also invested. To open a PAMM account and raise funds from investors, the manager must invest a certain amount of their own money.
- The accounts allow taking advantage of the knowledge and experience of highly experienced traders in the markets.
- Manager´s profits come from the benefits generated by their trades in the market using their capital and the investor´s capital. This means that the investor only “pays” for the results.
- The investors can follow all trades performed by the manager and withdrawal their capital at any time.
