Alpari minimum account $200

via email: " We have decreased our minimum deposit requirement to 200 USD
or equivalent in GBP, CHF or EUR.
It is possible to have one or more live accounts in any of these four currencies.
Please refer to http://www.alpari.co.uk/en/company-news/info/175.html for details."

 

Just out of curiosity - what would one hope to accomplish with a whopping $200.00 account?

 

Anything to make commissions, margin is probably 1:400, a sure way to blow your account.

 

Training ... getting your feet wet ... getting used to entering orders ... stuff like that - while having money on the line rather than virtual demo money. You should probably see it in conjunction with the micro lots they are now offering.

Cheers,
