ForexNation.Org gives brokerage profits to charity

[webmaher]

As of February 2013, Forex Nation does not open accounts for residents of the following countries:

Former Republic of Yugoslavia ?????

Can you explain what this mean for someone from Slovenia or Croatia?

... So, I already have a live Axi a/c. Apart from the fact that FXN's profits go to charity, what other tangible benefits would I get as a trader that I'm currently not getting with Axi?

Thanks

If you mean along the line of rebates, there will be, but not that I can disclose right now. Of course there's the very tangible benefit of community and the sense of satisfaction that comes from being involved in something like this - nominating and/or casting your vote on the projects we fund, volunteering to travel (expenses paid) and teach trading in emerging economies as part of our educational programmes, being involved as a trading mentor ... all actively contributing to the positive change that we want for the world.

you've got good taste but you need to get out more

Actually the nature of our charitable projects is really exciting - including putting together teams of traders to teach and mentor women in emerging economies as part of our educational programs - but I'm going off piste now, so those details on request or another time...

I like the sound of this. More details please!

We're currently presenting FXNs proposed charity program to the Australian Charities & Not-For-Profits Commission to receive our registered charity status. Rather than announce what we're proposing we've decided to wait until the ACNC is happy and then we'll post comprehensive details to our website, alert anyone interested via this thread and email those who have requested involvement here http://forexnation.org/about/

Thank you for your interest!

Hi webmaher,

We have checked with our legal department and all countries from former Yugoslavia are now accepted. Including Slovenia and Croatia, of course.

We have updated our website.

Would you mind clarifying if the demo account expires?

From your FAQ - Why do I see an invalid account message:
"For Demo Accounts This means you’ve either entered the wrong login or password, or most likely your 30 day demo has expired. You can get access to an unlimited demo by opening and funding a live account."

Wondering if this is just a copy and paste from Axitrader!

Would you mind clarifying if the demo account expires?

Demo accounts are set to unlimited/no expiry on request - just shoot us an email via our web contact form. In the first instance new demo accounts are auto set to 30 days as lots of people change to a live account in that time, so expiry keeps our demo servers tidy. Thanks for bringing my attention to that FAQ - I've sorted it.
