外匯贈金是一個很好的促進你交易的工具。前面文章中已經讨論過，贈金至少在2015年，可以讓你大幅提高盈利。
今天，我們要更詳細地審查外匯商所提供贈金政策的條款以及情況。這是一個必須步驟，因為有很多欺詐性的交易商會通過提供極具吸引力的贈金政策引導客戶入金交易。這些贈金似乎十分有趣，然而當你開始仔細研究贈金條款時，你會很清晰地發現：最好的情況下，你會失去寶貴的時間；最壞的情況是，你會損失本金。
複雜的條款以及條件示例
讓我們用一個示例說明。近期你可能聽到鐵匯在中國的痛苦掙紮經歷，很多人也在本論壇中評論鐵匯的拒絕取款。鐵匯想吸引更多的交易者入金，那麼它最好的做法是什麼？對，就是給交易者提供一個免費的外匯交易賬戶。所以，賬戶中免費的25美金對於新手來說十分具有吸引力。確實，在你仔細研究鐵匯的條款與條件（尤其是下面的幾點）之前，這非常具有吸引力。
10、客戶提取贈金的條件是：進行一次不限數額的存款並完成大於兩標準手的交易。如果客戶需要出金（或者從一個賬戶轉移到另一個賬戶），鐵匯有權按客戶的盈虧比例扣除贈金之後再處理客戶的出金。如果鐵匯扣除部分或全部客戶贈金，客戶將沒有任何理由起訴鐵匯，鐵匯不會擔負任何責任，客戶也不會得到任何補償。
所以，如果換成更為通俗的語言，它的意思就是你的交易賬戶可以免費得到25美金，但是如果你想出金的話，你需要先存款。之後，你必須交易2標準手才可以提取任何資金（如果有的話）。鐵匯可以很容易地取消贈金。這聽起來是一個公平的交易嗎？你自己可以得出結論。對於我來說，它只證明，你在任何經紀商開戶之前了解條款與條件是十分關鍵的。
條款以及條件的關鍵信息
並不是每一個條款都存在騙局，然而你再參加一個經紀商的贈金活動之前需要格外留意幾條。下面我列舉最關鍵的三點。
地理限制
即使經紀商或許會接受來自大部分別的國家客戶開戶交易，但這並不意味著贈金政策適用你所在的國家。交易商接受你所在國家的客戶開戶，但沒有贈金的情況很常見。這也就是你在入金之前仔細查看贈金的地理限制的原因。
手數要求
不會存在天上掉餡餅的事，外匯經紀商也不例外。當你得到贈金之後，你將會被要求完成一定的手數才能夠出金。有時這些要求近乎瘋狂，你可能需要完成1標準手才能提取一美元贈金，這大概是歐美點差的10%（假設點差為1點）。我不會推薦任何1標準手對應少於5美金的贈金活動，1標準手對應大於等於10美金的贈金是首選。
到期日
並不是每個經紀商的贈金都有到期日，然而大部分是由的。通常，你不僅需要完成相應的手數，而且需要在限定時間内完成。這一點沒有什麼壞處，重要的是到期日是實實在在的，尤其對於需求滿足的交易量而言。換句話說，在360天内完成100標準手交易和在30天内解鎖你的贈金是有很大區別的。
Forex Bonus: Analysis of the Terms and Conditions
Forex Bonus is a great tool to boost up your forex trading process and in our previous article we have covered that bonus inclined brokers will most probably be able to offer a bigger bang for your buck, at least for 2015.
Today we will take a more detailed look at the forex bonus offers and we will mainly focus on examining the terms and conditions of the brokers’ promotion. This is a needed step, as there are many scam forex brokers that try to lure you into trading with them by offering too attractive bonuses. Such bonuses seem to be quite interesting, yet when you start examining the terms and conditions, you can clearly see that in the best case you will just lose your time...and in the worst case - your money.
Example of tricky terms and conditions
Let’s illustrate this with an example. Recently you could have heard about the struggles IronFX had been going through in China and there were also quite a lot of people commenting on the forums about refused withdrawals. Most probably IronFX wanted to attract additional traders and what’s the best to do it? Right, with a no deposit forex trading account. So an offer of free 25 USD may sound attractive to novice traders. Well, it could be quite attractive unless you examine the terms and conditions, especially the following point:
10. Following receipt of the Bonus and in order to be eligible to request a withdrawal of funds, the client must complete 2 lots turnover and 1 deposit, irrespective of the amount..If the Client requests a withdrawal of funds from his account (or requests an internal transfer of funds from one account to another), IronFX may at its discretion decide to remove, proportionally, the granted Bonus prior to proceeding with any Client’s withdrawal request based on the Client’s profit and/or loss ratio. Provided that IronFX proceeds with the withdrawal, subtraction or deletion of the Bonus from the Clients’ account(s), such action shall not give rise to any cause of action, liability or remedy against IronFX.
So if we translate this point into more human language, it means that you can get 25 USD of free money on a trading account, but if you want to withdraw anything, you would need to complete a deposit. Next to it, even if you made a deposit, traded 2 lots and then want to withdraw your bonus and profit (if any), IronFX may simply cancel the bonus. Does it sound like a fair deal? You make the conclusion. To me it seems that it only proves that taking a look at the terms and conditions is vital before engaging in any type of a forex promotions.
Main info to look for at the terms and conditions
Not every bonus offer has tricks inside of it, yet there are a few items to keep an eye on when participating in a certain deposit bonus campaign of a broker. Below I will provide a quick checklist of the three most important items.
Geographical Restriction
Even though a broker may accept traders from most of the countries, it doesn’t mean that the bonus offer is available in your county. It is often the case that the broker accepts traders from your country, but no bonus is given on your deposits to the residence of your country. This is why you should certainly check on geo restrictions before making a deposit.
Turnover Requirement
Nobody gives money for free and forex brokers are not an exception. When you are getting your deposit bonus, you are expected to complete a certain amount of the volume before you can withdraw the bonus. Sometimes this requirement is just crazy and can be around 1 USD per 1 lot, which is roughly 10% of the spread on EURUSD (assuming the spread is 1 pips). I wouldn’t recommend to settle for anything lower than 5 USD per lot, while 10 USD per lot or more is a preferred volume.
Expiration Period
Not every broker gives a bonus with an expiration period, yet most of the brokers do. Usually you are not only expected to complete a certain turnover, but also to perform this within a given amount of time. There is nothing bad about this point, what is important is that this expiration period is realistic, especially in relation to the required volume. In other words, there is a big difference between completing 100 lots of volume during 360 days and 30 days to unlock your 1,000 USD of the bonus.
