After
Switzerland Central Bank removed the three year old cap on the Swiss franc at
1.20 global markets had a 5 minutes meltdown provoking deep losses in the
financial industry and also in participants of the WTI. A lot of the
participants miscalculated the leverage used in the portfolios. Alexander
Ivanchev was first with gains over 300% and lost all his gains.
Alexander
Ivanchev is from Bugaria participating in the WTI through Karoll Forex and he
regularly reach profits up to 200-300% through the years, and that was the
level of his gains in the WTI just after 4 weeks of competition. Born in 1975
Alexander Ivanchev decided to participate to test himself, and if possible to
gain recognition for his skills.
Alexander
likes to trade with the trend and waits sometimes for weeks in order to
accumulate big profits. Although he only trades Forex he uses correlation in
markets for his analysis. For example when trading USD/CAD, he analysis crude
oil because of positive correlation. With the gigantic CHF move in the markets
he, like a lot of people lost all the money.
The
2014-2015 edition of the WTI has started when financial markets are
experiencing a level of volatility not seen in a while. This volatility will
add stress to participants.
