Chicago Forex Ltd operates from its headquarters in Arlington Heights, Illinois where its state-of-the-art foreign exchange facility provides individuals, corporate investors, and financial institutions the opportunity to trade in the spot currency markets - a unique range of currency related products and services. CFL integrates fundamental and technical analysis, as well as order management, on one platform, to empower the next generation global investor. To further assist the international investor, CFL also has an operation in the Cayman Islands. CFL offers substantial financial stability without sacrificing the personal service and professional experience needed by investors in today's fast-moving and rapidly-changing markets. CFL representatives have on-line access to precise, up-to-the-minute news, research and information so that questions are answered with intelligence and decisions can be made with confidence. Quotes and executions are provided instantaneously. And all clients have direct access to the views of CFL's experienced market analysts, an opportunity not available to individual clients like at large banking institutions. CFL operates on a global basis, dealing through an extensive network of security firms, introducing brokers, financial institutions, consultants, international lawyers and other professionals. Clients of CFL may trade foreign exchange in units beginning at $100,000. This reduces capital needs and risk exposure while providing the same opportunities that are usually only available to banks and large corporate and institutional customers. Backed by the world's leading banking institutions, CFL can deliver, to its clients, the best pricing, transparency and liquidity in a wide range of currencies.
The ability to deal directly from current bid/ask quotes is the centerpiece of CFL's customer-oriented service. Publishing real-time prices ensures that CFL clients always receive a firm, fair price for their foreign exchange transactions, and facilitates instantaneous deal execution. With CFL, there is no waiting for a broker to respond to your request for a dealing price, and therefore there are no missed market opportunities. Interbank Dealing Spreads CFL's normal dealing spreads are always in line with or better than Interbank prices on all major currencies. This is possible because CFL acts as a "market maker", meaning that CFL quotes both bid and ask prices and is ready to make a two-sided market for any foreign exchange deal. CFL can offer tight, aggressive prices on deals of all sizes because it employs only experienced foreign exchange traders, who understand how to manage multiple positions in a fast moving market. Therefore, investors at CFL can execute transactions of between $100,000 and $10,000,000 at the same prices only large institutional clients receive in the Interbank market. For transactions over $5,000,000 the spread may even sometimes be tighter than Interbank dealing spreads, depending on market conditions. |
