Different Implementation Models for VetexFX Trader

You can use the VertexFX not only for Margin trading, but also for other models like: 

1. Exchanger Implementation model.
2. Jewelry Shop Implementation Model.

Any Exchange/Jewelry Shop can have VertexFX Backoffice at their end in order to create a cash account for their clients with user name and password for each and depositing an amount at this Exchange or Jewelry Shop.

Exchange/Jewelry Shop will use the AMOUNT/OUNCE unit instead of LOT for the contract size where Trader will place a physical amount for doing the Exchange/Jewelry delivery (let’s say BUY 1,000 OUNCE instead of BUY 0.1 LOT).

One more thing, the contract size for cash exchanging is (1) instead of (100,000) for margin trading.

Last thing is that the Initial Margin requirement is also (1) instead of say (1000) as there is no leverage in cash exchanging and the physical metal delivery. Accordingly, client can place his money Exchange/Metal orders online by determining the amount he needs.
