IC Markets, Australia\u2019s largest forex broker, adds Chinese Yuan (USD\/CNH) and the Russian Ruble (USD\/RUB) currency pairs to its MetaTader 4 and cTrader platforms. It is also the first time any Australian based broker has offered the USD\/RUB currency pair.<\/p>\n
The addition of these new pairs comes amidst increased volatility in the Russian Ruble as a result of the political tension between Russia and the Ukraine in Crimea.<\/p>\n
IC Markets Managing Director, Andrew Budzinski said: \u201cPolitical tension is not the only driver behind the addition of these two currency pairs, we have seen a significant increase in client numbers from both Russia and China. We have also seen increased volatility in the Chinese Yuan against the US dollar as China\u2019s central bank intervenes in its currency, squeezing hot money out of speculative positions. The large fall in the USD\/CNH of almost 13 big figures since the start of the year represents significant opportunity for our clients in the east.\u201d<\/p>\n
The addition of these new currency pairs linked to two of the world\u2019s powerhouse economies will give traders more opportunity to benefit from economic growth and political changes as they unfold.<\/p>\n
Andrew Budzinski added: \u201cWe constantly strive to meet the demands of our clients and will continue to add more pairs in the future, in-line with our global expansion strategy\u201d.<\/p>\n
IC Markets is well known across Asia with offices in Sydney and China. The expansion of its product suite paves the way for further growth across eastern and Western Europe where it already has a strong foothold with its low spread forex offering and local language support.<\/p>\n
IC Markets allows trading of these new pairs on its MetaTrader 4 and cTrader platforms with a starting deposit of $200 and leverage of up to 500:1.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
