2. Place at the World Championship of Foreign Exchange Trading (Q4 Division)
Our founder was able to perform up to second place at the world championship of foreign exchange trading.
This was possible even though he joined mid November and only had half the time in the competition.
The strategy used for the championship is the same we offer through our website here.

Our Story
Global FX Analytics was founded by former institutional traders to make smart long term FX strategies available to the public.
​
The quality of FX strategies for retail traders is relatively low compared to institutional strategies. As a result we want to offer a superior way to trade but also educate trading the global FX market.
Our Vision
Global FX Analytics was founded with the goal to give more people access to advanced automated FX strategies and also the knowledge of how those strategies work and can be used or even adapted at a more advanced stage.
Technology
By using the most efficient statistical software tools for trading we can find some signifcant edges in the market in order to profit of market anomalies and offer high return, but low risk strategies.

How it works
Data
By analysing fundamental and technical data we found strategies that can be applied to certain forex pairs in order to profit off market anomalies. The screenshot shows an FX Pair, which due to the fundamental underlying economics tends to mean revert. With our proprietary strategies we can take advantage of this relationship in order to profit from it.
Generally, we tend to trade specific currency pairs, which we are fundamentally familiar with.
Results
The results of the conservative risk strategy (AUDNOK in this case) speak for themselves with achieving a 1126% return over 17 years with a drawdown of only -20.69%. In comparison the S&P 500 would have gained you around 440% with a 55% drawdown during the financial crisis + EU crisis + Covid.
​
The strategy is very different from most online FX bots you will find because it was created by former institutional traders, who understand what market forces drive the foreign exchange market. Therefore, the trade frequency is reduced significantly since we are interested in making profits, not losing all in broker fees. This strategy only trades on average about twice per month. Moreover, since it is a daily strategy on a liquid asset, it is easily implementable for a portfolio of several million dollars.
Relaxed trading frequency:
​
This type of strategy is especially for people who likely have a full-time job and can’t dedicate the entire day to watching charts.
​
With your full-time job and the time needed for family and friends, you will still be able to make use of profitable trading opportunities in the market.
Additionally, we also show here an intermediate risk version of our trading strategy (AUDNOK in this case), which comes with higher returns, but also with larger drawdowns/risks. However, this strategy does open the opportunity to very high gains. Due to the risk of the strategies, we think it makes sense to only invest about 10%-25% of ones networth in these strategies
For over 17 years this strategy has been working well, surviving all different types of crises and having an overall low correlation to the traditional equity market. As such, it is a great investment tool to diversify assets and also to simply learn more about other alternative macroeconomic investment strategies.
This second strategy has had a return of approx. 5.244%, with a drawdown of only -32.99%. To compare, the S&P 500 has returned during the same last 17 years approx. 440% with a drawdown of over -55% (financial crisis 2008, euro crisis, covid), and much larger drawdown periods as well. The average profitable trade returns approx. 4x more than the average loss, while the winning ratio is around 85%. This shows the positive expectancy on this strategy is at a very high level.
​
How much return can I expect on average?
​
The conservative strategy makes in the worst years around 5% and during the best years around 25%. On each trade you can expect to make around 2.5%. There are years in which we get only 2 signals to trade, but also years in which we get around 10 signals to trade, which equals approx. 25%. For this strategy the maximum drawdown has been -20% as you can see above.
​
The intermediate risk strategy makes about 8% during the worst years and about 40% during the best years. The amount of signals is the same as with the conservative strategy, only the size of positions is higher. With the intermediate risk strategy the maximum drawdown is about -33% as you can also see above in the backtest.
​
How do we make these great returns during the long run?
This is where we expect you to understand some basics about finance. The compounding effect makes this possible. If you make for example 20% every year for 5 years, you will not only be making 20% on your initial investment every year. The correct calculation would be:
50,000 USD x (1+20%) = 60,000 USD x (1+20%) = 72,000 USD x (1+20%) = 86,400 x (1+20%) = 103,680 USD x (1+20%) = 124,416 USD. You therefore more than double your amount with an average yearly return of 20%.
​
Compared, on average S&P 500 makes 8% per year​​.​

Risk management - What equity and margin is necessary for this strategy?
​
This is where we will have to become a bit mathematical, but do not worry, this part is done completely automatic for you via our copy trading, see below.
Nevertheless, this is of utter importance because you have to size your trading correctly so you do not get a margin call.
The standard regulated broker will allow for around 1:30 leverage in FX pairs. In our backtest we have used an account of 50,000 USD. The maximum drawdown was at -20%. Lets assume worst case scenario and this would have happened right at the start. The position size at that time would have been approximately 1.25 lots x 3 = 3.75 lots, which equals a notional value of 375,000 Australian Dollars (AUD). To open these positions you would need 375,000 / 30 equals 12.500 dollars. However, you are also in a drawdown of -20%, as a result you would have 50,000 -. 20% (10,000) equals 40,000 USD at the time of opening the position, for which you would need 12,500 dollars. Since our strategy does not allow to trade more than 3.75 lots for this portfolio size you should always able to open the necessary lots in order to profit off this strategy without coming too close to a margin call.
​
Example:
​
In this case, if you would copy our strategy with a 20,000 USD account, you would have, at a -20% drawdown an equity of 16,000 USD. Lets check if you would still have enough equity to open the necessary positions. To open the proportional equivalent of 3.75 lots for 50,000 dollar into 20,000 we have to calculate a ratio of 50,000 / 20,000 = 2.5, As a result during the drawdown we will have 3.75 / 2.5 = 1.5 lots open, which equals a notional value of 150,000 USD. The margin required in your account to hold this amount of lots would be 150,000 USD / 30 equals 5,000 USD. Since you still have 16,000 USD, at the maximum position size, there should not be too much margin call risk. You have twice the amount needed in your account. This is how we make sure your chances of blowing your account are at a minimum.
​
The sizing is automatically implemented when copying our strategies, which means you all your positions will be proportionally equal to our positions so you have the same risk as us.
If you use a leverage of e.g. 1:500 you would have to replace "30" in these calculations by the number "500". This would obviously imply a much lower probability of receiving a margin call.
​​
Important to keep in mind regarding our intermediate risk strategy:
​
Here is an example of the position sizing with our intermediate risk strategy. The difference is in the size, which is a bit larger, and also in the drawdown, which as a result turns out to be larger.
​​
In this case, if you would copy our strategy with a 20,000 USD account, you would have, at a -34% drawdown an equity of 13,200 USD. Lets check if you would still have enough equity to open the necessary positions. To open the proportional equivalent of 6 lots (not 1.5 lots because this strategy uses larger position size), which equals a notional value of 600,000 Australian Dollars. The margin required for a standard 1:30 leverage account would be 600,000 / 30 = 20,000 USD. This shows how you would not even have enough capital in order to open the needed positions if your account would still be at 100% value of 20,000 USD! What does this mean? In case you are interested in our intermediate risk strategy you cannot trade it via only a 1:30 leverage. We recommed at least 1:100 leverage.
In this case the calculation would be 600,000 / 100 = 6.000 USD margin is needed to open the positions. Since we still have 13.200 USD in our account this will not be an issue. With a 1:50 leverage you would be too close to getting a margin call, hence we believe a 1:100 leverage minimum is good, but best would be a 1:500 leverage, which is possible with the broker we use. More on this below.​​​
