Goutam Das, Director of Development in Africa:

“I’ve always been interested in trading. I remember looking through stock sections of newspapers when I was 12, but with time this hobby became my work. I’m very thankful to Grand Capital for being able to do what I love. My top priority for the nearest future is improving the quality of service and active promotion of our company in Africa. During these three years we achieved many great things, but the success that we already have is not the best we can do. I plan to continue improving our trading services and work towards opening new partner offices. Beside that, we’re focused on meeting our all demands of our clients and ensuring the security of trading.”

From a personal manager to a Director of Development in Africa

Communication with a personal manager is key for traders. It consists not only in an exchange of information. Just like in any other work, personality plays a great part here. We asked Goutam a few questions in order to learn more about him:

Goutam, tell us a little about yourself: where were you born, what did you do before getting into trading?

I was born in Madhya Pradesh, India, got my bachelor’s degree in business administration. During the final years of college I started working at a large hotel network. First it was an entry position, then after a while I was promoted to chief manager of the hotel. But my mind was always set on trading.

After moving to Russia I decided to find work in this industry. I got lucky and quickly joined the Grand Capital team. I can say that the move helped my lifelong wish come true: it’s in Russia that I found my dream job.

Why trading?

As I have already mentioned, it all started when I was a kid. My parents had subscriptions to a few newspapers and I loved reading through the economy columns. Who could have thought that this would become my main profession! Today I work with investments and trading, and I help others profit from this activity. It’s great to have this opportunity, not everyone can afford to do what they love.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How did you start your career at Grand Capital?

I joined Grand Capital in 2016. At first I worked as a sales manager, but I knew I had bigger ambitions than that. When the higher management saw my enthusiasm, I was promoted to a personal manager and then to the position of business development manager. At the time we started actively expanding in Africa, I was working with traders and partners virtually 24/7. When I first went to Africa to hold a couple of educational events, I realized that the industry of financial services isn’t as developed there as in Russia and Europe. That’s why Grand Capital had great potential there. We had an opportunity to become a broker #1 in Africa so we started working more actively there. Within two months we organized six educational events, met local traders, talked to them about financial markets trading. At the same time we established contact with local banks so that our clients could conduct financial transactions easier. In the end we firmly settled in Africa and now have a well-developed network of representative offices in four countries: Nigeria, South Africa, Namibia and Botswana.

What will your top priorities be now as the Director of Development in Africa? What about your plans?

For me, security in trading has always been the top priority. It’s important for me that traders trust Grand Capital. We have a solid reputation among real traders and we’re doing everything to live up to it. Another important thing is to provide favorable trading conditions to our clients in Africa. This includes fast and easy deposit and withdrawal methods, the option to conduct transactions in local currency, working with local banks in countries where we’re represented, development of the network of offices so that our clients can receive education, assistance and trading advice right in their home city.

The winners of the 467th and 468th rounds of Drag Trade both told us about importance of control without conspiring together beforehand. Read how it helped them in the contest and what else do you need for successful trading.

Mathias Dossou, Benin, winner of the 468th round of Drag Trade, received real $200

My name is Mathias, I’m from Benin. I got interested in trading in March, 2018. Soon I’ll turn 32, I’m a happy husband and father. I have my own idols: Mark Twain, Joan Baez, TS Eliot, Nora Roberts, Timothy Ferriss and others. I want to be a trading idol for others myself. I study technical analysis, know a lot of indicators: Ichimoku, RSI, MACD, Moving Averages. I attended a trading academy to learn financial market trading. My best trade was placed this February. My deposit went from 0.87 EUR to 25 EUR within only two days. I thought I found the Grail, but then immediately blew all I earned. Before deciding on a broker I looked into many companies and read reviews. I like transparent contest conditions at Grand Capital, Drag Trade is a difficult competition which makes my adrenaline level go up fast. It requires special technique that actually works and enables to come first. I recommend all novice traders to try their hands at all Grand Capital contests, practice more on a demo account and always remember about control.

 

Valeriy Kuzishin, Ukraine, winner of the 467th round of Drag Trade, received real $200

I’m 52 and I work as a carbon dioxide production operator. I like outdoor activities and sports. I learned trading watching online videos, webinars and reading educational materials. However, I consider practice to be the most effective method of education, since theory without practice is useless. When my knowledge of Forex was superficial, I thought trading was some kind of game. But now I understand that it’s work and it requires constant learning. I want to achieve stability in trading. I’m not hoping for millions, but at least for regularly profitable trades.

On his most successful trade

My most successful trade was placed in 2016. It was during the Brexit referendum. Everyone was sure that the UK would remain in the EU, so the GBP rate was rapidlt growing. About 11 PM I sold some pounds and in the morning I had about 1,000 pips of profit. However, the trade was placed on a demo account. I think all my successful and profitable trades are still ahead.

It’s important to do everything with careful consideration so that you don’t have to worry too much: correctly calculate the lot’s volume, use stop loss and remember that all trades can’t be profitable.

On choosing a broker

When choosing a broker I pay attention to reliability, client support, access to all useful information. All this comes together at Grand Capital. Not a single question was left unanswered by client support. I think that Grand Capital is a reliable broker that makes me confident in the safety of my funds.

This round of Drag Trade was pretty tense. It can’t be any other way, the competition is only an hour long and the opponents don’t sleep. I managed to stick to my initial plan and control my trading. Well, I was also lucky. I’m not sure I have the right to give advice, but all beginners (including myself) must learn more, be disciplined in trading, conform to all rules of money management and never lose hope.

Sign-up for the next round

Last half a year at Grand Capital has been marked by drastic improvements of trading conditions. We reduced spreads and swaps, introduced new payment services and underwent execution quality assessment: all to enhance the experience our clients. In case you missed any important updates from the last few months, we rounded up the most important ones for you.

Spreads have been reduced twice

In December, 2018, our spreads went down by 10% on three trading accounts: Standard, ECN Prime and Micro thanks to the new liquidity provision technology by AMTS. It allowed us to aggregate liquidity from several providers, which means spreads will be decreasing even more in the future.

And on April 1st, the spreads on Standard, Swap Free and Micro accounts were reduced again, and the difference between the old and the new values was unprecedentedly huge for some instruments. See the current spreads on our website.

New instruments added to ECN Prime account

Floating leverage for more efficient risk control

March 2019

Deposits in cryptocurrencies Ripple (XRP) and Tether (USDT)

Now you can deposit and withdraw funds at Grand Capital in Ripple (XRP) and Tether (USDT). These are popular altcoins with real value.

All prices were confirmed as market average.

February 2019

Swaps for 47 currency pairs on Standard and Micro accounts were significantly reduced. For some instruments swaps were reduced by more than 30%. Moreover, the commission for transferring a position through midnight decreased for precious metals as well: gold, silver and the pairs GOLD/EUR and SILVER/EUR.

December 2018

There’s no such thing as the universal secret of success in trading. Thanks to multiple strategies and instruments, as well as a certain skill anyone can find something that will bring them profit. Learn the trading preferences of our contest winners in the latest interview round-up.

Akbar Abid, Pakistan, winner of the 74th round of Future Trade, received $1,000 no-deposit bonus

My name is Abid Akbar, I’m 31 and I’m a sales manager. Forex trading has been my main hobby ever since I learned to do it properly. I’ve been trading for seven years, at first on a demo account, then on a real one. I like the process of trading itself, as well as the profit I get from it. During the whole time I’ve been trading I had a lot of unsuccessful and successful trades. Among those that brought me the most profit, the one with XAUUSD stuck in my memory. In order to learn trading, I watched webinars and video lessons, tried different brokers. At first I traded on a demo account and everything seemed easy, however since I switched to a real account I’m always afraid to lose.

I don’t have one single strategy, but I prefer trading long-term, that’s why I chose the contest with futures. Short-term trading and scalping aren’t my thing. My favorite instruments are gold and oil CFDs, spot metals.

When choosing a broker, I pay attention first of all to regulation and contests. As soon as I realized that Grand Capital offers really great contests, I chose them.

To be honest, I didn’t expect to win, but did it after all thanks to focusing exclusively on trades, confidence and support from my family.

Maria Bibikova, winner of the 466th round of Drag Trade, received $200

I’m 32, I work in healthcare. My work takes up most of my time, so there’s not enough room in my life for hobbies and entertainment.

I learned trading from my own experience and mistakes. All in all I consider trading to be a profession you can’t learn. My attitude towards it is fairly simple: I view it as a source of extra income. With time I started react less emotionally to the results of trading. Of course, successful trades still make me happy, while unsuccessful ones disappoint. My trading strategy became more conservative as I went on.

What I like about Grand Capital is that they offer short-term contests, it adds the thrill. In this round of Drag Trade I chose the pair with the maximum expected volatility due to the Brexit uncertainty, GBP/USD and it worked. In general I prefer instruments with low spreads and short-term trend trading strategies. The most important thing about a broker for me is reliability. Considering this, Grand Capital is a broker with flawless reputation, interesting promotions and contests.
