    http://www.fxcm.co.uk/docs_pdfs/FXCM_LTD_Terms_of_Business.pdf.
  2. I shall be classified as a retail client unless I specifically request to be classified otherwise.
  3. I acknowledge and agree that the Agreement will govern the Account with FXCM Ltd. and that all of the provisions of the Agreement are deemed incorporated by reference into this form.
  4. I agree to execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, any other agreements or instruments which may reasonably be requested in respect of the transfer of the Account and the establishment thereof as an Account with FXCM Ltd.
  5. I authorize and direct FXCM LLC to provide FXCM Ltd. with any personal information related to my Account which may reasonably be required in order to permit FXCM Ltd. to properly establish and administer the Account.
  6. I acknowledge and agree that the FSA's client money rules will apply. Available margin must exist in order for funds to be transferred, as removal of funds may result in a margin call. I shall hold FXCM Ltd. and its affiliates harmless for any and all claims regarding such funds transfer upon proper credit to the above named account.
  7. My account balance is USD $5000 or less. (All FXCM Ltd. Micro accounts are denominated in USD.) If your trading account is denominated in a different currency, transferring to a Micro account with FXCM Ltd. will result in the conversion of funds to USD at a conversion rate with markup.

** You will receive a confirmation from FXCM Ltd within 2 business days of the scheduled change date. If you do not receive a confirmation from FXCM, please contact client services.

When your account is transferred to FXCM Ltd, any Net Stop or Net Limit Orders that you placed while trading with FXCM LLC will be removed, since FXCM Ltd accounts place stops and limits on individual positions instead. FXCM suggests closing all open trades in your account before the transfer, or making sure to set new stops or limits as soon as trading starts on the Sunday following the transfer.

Please note that any pending entry orders in your account will open new positions if executed after your account is transferred to FXCM Ltd, rather than close any existing positions. FXCM suggests managing or deleting your pending entry orders prior to your account transfer.
