The National Futures Association (“NFA”) requires all Forex Dealer Members (“STRAITS”), including straitsfx.com.com, to disclose upon request by a customer, the following transaction data for the 15 transactions in the same currency pair that occurred immediately before and after the customer's transaction, limited to those transactions that occur 15 minutes before and after the customers’ transaction.
Execution date and time (to the nearest millisecond in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC))
Customer side (i.e., buy or sell)
Quantity
Currency Pair
Execution price (including any mark-up)
Commission and other charges assessed by the STRAITSFX (if applicable) Currency denomination of commission or other charges
Please note that not all customers of straitsfx.com.com are trading on the same spreads. For example, our Active Trader program customers have access to a tighter spread category and will therefore receive different bid/offer prices than customers trading on standard spreads. For this reason, you may see a discrepancy in execution price for trades that were entered at or near the same time.
Risk Warning
Before deciding to participate in the Forex market, you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience and risk appetite. Most importantly, do not invest money you cannot afford to lose.
There is considerable exposure to risk in any off-exchange foreign exchange transaction, including, but not limited to, leverage, creditworthiness, limited regulatory protection and market volatility that may substantially affect the price, or liquidity of a currency or currency pair.
Moreover, the leveraged nature of forex trading means that any market movement will have an equally proportional effect on your deposited funds. This may work against you as well as for you. The possibility exists that you could sustain a total loss of initial margin funds and be required to deposit additional funds to maintain your position. If you fail to meet any margin requirement, your position may be liquidated, and you will be responsible for any resulting losses.
There are risks associated with utilizing an Internet-based trading system including, but not limited to, the failure of hardware, software, and Internet connection. straitsfx.com.com is not responsible for communication failures or delays when trading via the Internet. straitsfx.com.com employs backup systems and contingency plans to minimize the possibility of system failure, and trading via telephone is always available.

Mid-Point Spread Disclosure
The NFA defines spread cost based on the “mid-point spread cost.” In typical market conditions, this is the difference between the rate at which your order was executed and the mid-point of the bid/offer spread at the time your market order was received. Keep in mind that conditional orders become market orders once they are triggered. Mid-point spread cost typically reflects the cost of your trade outside of any commissions.
During extreme market conditions, the time period from when a market order is received as compared to when the order is ultimately executed may increase. This increase in time period can result from many factors including but not limited to: market volatility, available liquidity, pre-trade available margin check, and price validation etc.
The potential delay in order execution during extreme market conditions may cause wide variations of your spread cost at time of execution measured as the difference between bid
