Interbank FX Launches Breakthrough Social Trading Platform for Customers

SALT LAKE CITY, Aug. 15, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Interbank FX, LLC, one of the industry's leading global providers of online forex trading software, introduces IBFXConnect: the first FX trading social network brought to you by a US broker.

IBFXConnect bridges the gap between social media and the fastest growing financial market in the world. Pioneered by Interbank FX, customers can trade FX alongside successful traders across the globe.  Everyday traders now have the opportunity to study the success of others; see what they're trading; follow their trades and commentary and even copy their trades directly from IBFXConnect.

Through Interbank FX's popular MT4 Expert Advisor integration, IBFXConnect enables a two-way communication between a customer's trading account and their IBFXConnect profile. From here, each customer has complete control of their privacy settings while being able to manage and copy trades from other members.

"IBFXConnect is so exciting because our customers can now follow and copy other retail traders," said Todd Crosland, chairman and president of Interbank FX.  "Many traders on IBFXConnect have been trading successfully for months or years with their live trading accounts -- who better to follow than someone with a proven history(1)? Traditionally this type of information is only available through fee-based signal broadcasting systems or money management services.  We make it possible to like, follow and copy traders trades on IBFXConnect for free."

Anyone can join IBFXConnect with a version of MT4 from any broker, no fee required.
