Foreign Currency Trading 2024: What to Expect

Dear Clients and Partners,

On 8 February 2024, we examined how the exchange rates of the leading world currencies had changed in 2023 and discussed the key factors that will impact their performance in 2024. Additionally, we shared short and medium-term expert forecasts for the major currency pairs.

The strongest and weakest currencies in 2023

In 2023, many central banks were actively fighting inflation, resulting in relatively high volatility in the currency market. According to Visual Capitalist, the Mexican peso (MXN) saw an impressive increase last year, appreciating 14.8% against the US dollar (USD). This development occurred amid aggressive interest rate hikes by Mexico’s central bank. When writing, the interest rate was 11.25%.

The Swiss franc (CHF) also demonstrated steady growth of 9.8% due to geopolitical turbulence. The British pound (GBP), Canadian dollar (CAD), and euro (EUR) strengthened moderately within the range of 2-5% by year-end due to the interest rate hike policy pursued by the central banks.

The Australian dollar (AUD), New Zealand dollar (NZD), and Indian rupee (INR) ended the year with little to no changes, declining slightly by −0.1%, −0.5%, and −0.5%, respectively. The Chinese yuan (CNY) slid moderately by 2.8% in 2023.

The worst-performing currencies of the year were the Japanese yen (JPY), Russian ruble (RUB), and Turkish lira (TRY), which dropped by 7%, 17.5%, and 36.6%, respectively. The low-rate policy influenced the yen; the ruble is under pressure from the sanctions imposed following the onset of full-fledged war in Ukraine, and the lira is struggling due to domestic political and economic challenges.

The US Dollar Index (DXY), showing changes in the US currency value against a basket of the world’s major currencies, ended 2023 with a 2.0% decline.

Key factors influencing currencies in 2024

Inflation and central bank policy

The critical factor affecting exchange rates over the last two years was multiple central banks' aggressive interest rate hike cycles to combat inflation. The US regulator initiated these actions in Q1 2022, with the indicator increasing to 5.5% in less than two years.

Most of the world’s developed countries experienced monetary policy tightening to a similar extent. The Bank of England began to raise the interest rate at the end of 2021, a couple of months before the Federal Reserve, with the rate in the UK reaching 5.25% following 14 consecutive hikes. The European Central Bank began to increase the interest rate in mid-2022, pushing it up to 4.5%.

The central banks of Australia, Canada, and other countries followed suit, while the Bank of Japan was practically the only one among the most prominent regulators to pursue an adaptive zero-interest rate policy. This approach dominated the world for the first two years after the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.

US elections

Historically, the US dollar exchange rate tends to rise under Democratic presidents and decline under Republicans. Therefore, the currency market becomes especially volatile in the face of uncertainty surrounding upcoming presidential elections in the US, as stated by Business Insider analysts. This event will determine not only the US policy but also the US dollar exchange rate against other currencies.

Donald Trump is expected to become the leading nominee from the Republican party, having won the primaries in the coming months. He will face incumbent Democratic President Joe Biden in a tightly contested election. Their rematch, accompanied by heated rhetoric and the potential for social conflict, may affect investor sentiment and currency markets. Trump is committed to higher tariffs, which will push up inflation and increase the US dollar exchange rate, putting the Chinese yuan, euro, and Mexican peso under pressure.

Trends in the global economy

The International Monetary Fund projects that global economic growth will remain at 3.1% in 2024 and rise to 3.2% in 2025. Higher rates and a withdrawal of fiscal support amid high debt exert pressure on economic activity.

In most regions, the inflation rate is slowing down faster than expected amid unwinding supply-related issues and restrictive monetary policy. Global inflation is projected to fall to 5.8% in 2024 and 4.4% in 2025, with the outlook for the next year being revised downwards.

RoboForex: important information in view of Walmart's stock split on 26 February 2024

Dear Clients and Partners,

On 26 February 2024, Walmart will have its stocks go through a split. A stock split is a corporate action, as a result of which the company increases the number of issued shares by a specific multiplier and reduces the value of each share by the same multiplier.

Walmart will conduct a 3-for-1 stock split (1 share will be split into 3).

How will this affect positions and orders?

If you have open positions in Walmart shares or plan to open such positions, please pay attention to the following changes, which will be effective as of 26 February 2024:

MetaTrader 4 / MetaTrader 5 accounts

The split procedure will take place on 26 February and will be completed prior to the US Stock session's start at 16:30 hours (server time).

1. All pending orders (Buy Limit, Buy Stop, Sell Limit, Sell Stop, Buy Stop Limit, Sell Stop Limit, Stop Loss, and Take Profit) in WMT will be cancelled.
2. For positions in WMT, the opening price will be divided by 3.
3. The volume of each open position in WMT will be multiplied by 3.

Please note that if you are using an Expert Advisor (EA), we suggest that you check with its developers whether its code needs any modifications to ensure the correct interpretation of the price data after the stock split.

R StocksTrader accounts

The split procedure will take place on 26 February and will be completed prior to the US Stock session's start at 16:30 hours (server time).

1. During the split procedure, all active pending orders (Buy Limit, Sell Limit, Stop Loss, and Take Profit) in WMT and WMT.ny will be cancelled.
2. For positions in WMT and WMT.ny opened before the split, the opening price will be divided by 3.
3. The volume of all open positions in WMT and WMT.ny will be multiplied by 3.
4. All positions in any of these instruments in the same direction and on the same account will be combined into one new position. This new position will have the opening price and a volume based on an average weighted price of all positions held before the split.

The historical charts in your trading terminal will be updated to reflect the new prices of the above-mentioned instruments.

All other aspects of trading conditions shall remain intact. Please take this information into account when planning your trading activity.

Sincerely,
The RoboForex Team

RoboForex simplifies trading conditions on R StocksTrader: trading condition changes, expanded stock list, and modern trading API

Dear clients,

RoboForex is introducing updates to the R StocksTrader platform to enhance your investment experience. We are committed to providing the best trading conditions and are pleased to offer the following innovations:

1. Commission removal and updated approach to spreads

We aim to make investing as accessible as possible for all our clients, so we are simplifying trading conditions on the R StocksTrader platform. All order placement fees have been completely removed.

What this means:

1. Minimal costs: start investing with a small amount without overpaying for each trade.
   
2. Transparent and clear terms: our fees for order execution will now be included in the spread*. The markup on the market spread will not exceed 0.3% of the stock or CFD value.

* spread: the difference between the buying and selling price

The new trading conditions will come into effect on 2 September 2024.

Important information for open trades

All orders executed after 2 September will be processed under the new conditions. To close a position under the current terms, we recommend submitting the corresponding close order before 2 September 2024.

2. New investment opportunities: over 150 new stocks

We have significantly expanded the list of available trading instruments by adding over 150 real stocks. Among them are well-known companies such as:

1. RDDT.ny (Reddit Inc.):
   Reddit, Inc. operates an entertainment, social networking, and news website where registered community members can submit content. It provides online news services where users can select and rank web content. The firm also offers a personalised filter on the day’s stories, using previous votes to determine what new content the user might like to read.
   
2. ARTV.nq (Artiva Biotherapeutics Inc.):
   Artiva Biotherapeutics, Inc. is a biotechnology company that treats haematologic cancers. It offers NK cell therapies for cancer. The company was founded by Thomas J. Farrell in 2019 and is headquartered in San Diego, CA.
   
3. ASAN.ny (Asana, Inc.):
   Asana, Inc. develops a work management platform that helps organisations orchestrate work from daily tasks to cross-functional strategic initiatives.
   
4. YMAB.nq (Y-mAbs Therapeutics, Inc.):
   Y-mAbs Therapeutics, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focusing on developing and commercialising antibody-based therapeutic products for cancer treatment. Its services include discovery, protein engineering, and clinical and regulatory support.

3. Launch of trading API

A trading API is now available on the R StocksTrader platform.

Whether you are an experienced trader developing your own algorithms or a novice investor, you can now:

1. develop custom trading strategies
2. test them on demo accounts before launching them in real trading
3. integrate the API with any systems and platforms
4. trade stocks and other instruments through a single interface

Access the full API documentation and frequently asked questions via this link.

We are confident that these changes will help you reach new heights in your investments and trading. Thank you for choosing RoboForex!
