Investor, philanthropist, social activist, writer, the 56th richest person in the world, according to Forbes, and definitely the legend. Yeah, you have a hunch whom we are talking about. All these titles were given to the American financier George Soros, or it's better to say were deserved by this icon for 89 years of his life. You may call him as you prefer, but the crucial thing remains the same – he is a person whom people have discussed through the decades. Especially after that night when he earned a billion. Yeah, guys – one may lose count of zeros while writing this number.

How did Soros manage to do so? What else did he went through and achieved? And why people all over the world and the FX community, in particular, keep admiring this man? Today, we recall the story of the world-famous and probably the most generous trader of all time.

Do you think that the market is an environment no woman can survive in?  When it comes to the finance industry, are you sure that a lady may not be considered a rival or an example? Are you afraid of entering “male” territory or have used your gender as an excuse for not to get started? In all the cases, we highly recommend you reading this article.

Diversification is your pain killer pill if it ever comes to losses. Traders with balanced portfolios tend to be more secure about their failures, manage risks better, and avoid dramatic shortages of funds. However, it can only reduce pain, but won’t cure it.

There always comes a moment when you need to stop for a while and meditate on what you may give and share. The world is a beautiful place, but, unfortunately, it is poisoned with poverty, diseases, social injustice, greediness, natural, and environmental disasters. FBS has always been concerned about people in need. We put our best efforts into making an impact on the world and give you a chance to help while trading for a cause.

Everyone around us always talks about how important it is to dream and let your dreams prosper. But prospering dreams is not all – your dream has to evolve into action to get on the whole other level of this funny thing called reality. Forex is several dreams combined: the independence, the changed lifestyle, the opportunity to live the life you want.

Have you heard of foreboding? Open your vocabulary notebook and put it down. You probably already know the meaning or will definitely need it soon. It is a torturing feeling that something evil will happen, a premonition that casts dread over the future. The worst part, you don’t know precisely when “apocalypse” will strike!

Day after day, global news and the most influential analytical agencies warn us about the upcoming financial crisis. Some predict that it is imminent; others soften the situation and give hope that it won’t be so devastating. Nonetheless, we, who follow the global events, are not at ease and get up in the morning with anxiety and foreboding that gives us chills.

Don’t let fear control you! The more information you have, the less dramatic the inevitable prospect will seem.

The currencies of Latin America, Argentine peso, in particular, have recently been quite unstable, and rapid changes were noticed by many traders who keep an eye on the market. Right now, Argentine peso is going through a rapid fall with severe ups and downs – too rapid even for a currency of high volatility. What could be the reason for such a roller-coaster?

What comes to your mind first when you hear or read about the incredible wealth?

Just a couple of centuries ago, it would have definitely been gold or jewelry, but everything has changed dramatically. Nowadays, fabulous wealth is associated mainly with oil. The importance of crude oil can hardly be overestimated as it is considered to be the most significant energy resource and financial instrument in the world.

We were thinking on what to feature in our blog when one of our developers suggested we take a break and play a short match in League of Legends. How bad can it be, right? Well, surrender the game at 20 minutes kind of bad because we didn’t play for a couple of months and didn’t read the recent patch notes. At the same time our analyst traded and managed to make a couple of bucks while we were playing. 

And there we were, defeated and frustrated as he smiled at us with the sense of accomplishment. We decided to sit down, gather our thoughts on what trading and gaming have in common, and what are the pros and cons of both. What else can a person do after he was defeated, if not analyse what he did wrong?
