Professional traders or money managers, see what zipsignals can do to increase your client base and eliminate the headaches associated with client management.

Introduction to Services

First off, thank you for taking the time to explore the site, zipsignals has a lot to offer both signal providers and managed account traders as you will see. The idea behind zipsignals is to give your clients the ability to auto-execute your trading recommendations, and at the same time, remove the burden of subscription management and mechanize it in a platform that's easy to use for both you and your clients. It really is as easy as 1-2-3.

Of Course, this is an oversimplification but you get the idea. Many of the mundane tasks associated with client management are automated including:

• subscription payments
• subscription expiration notices
• subscription renewals
• sending Email alerts to your clients
• sending auto-execute signals to your clients
• sending a message to your active subscribers
• real time updates to your performance statistics

How the system works

After signing up and logging in you will be directed to the zipsignals Account Manager. Here you will set up a trading system, manage your trades and view the signal statistics that come back from your clients.

Trading systems are how zipsignals keeps track of your trades and subscribers. You can have multiple trading systems under your account but each is completely separate in terms of performance and subscribers. Your clients will see your systems as such: Your Forex Co - Your First System, Your Forex Co - Your Second System, etc... where "Your Forex Co" is your screen name and "Your First System" and "Your Second System" are your system names.

Managing your trades is easy. In the interface, you have the ability to enter a market or pending order, modify existing trades and issue partial closes on open positions. The zipsignals platform uses percentage (%) to derive lot size. Each order has a selectable order size from 1% to 10%. Issuing a 2% trade will open 0.2 lots in a standard account with a balance of $10,000 and margin of 1:100. Your clients have several settings to increase or decrease the position size to meet their own risk tolerances.

All signals sent to your clients are reported directly to you under your trade in real-time. For each client that receives a signal you will see their actual fill price, time it took to execute and any execution errors encountered.

What's this going to cost me?

We collect subscription fees from your clients on your behalf. Twice a month any subscription fees collected are returned to you minus the zipsignals service fee. The service fee is based on the monthly subscription fee and total number of active subscribers.

• Subscription fees are collected from clients on zipsignals.com.
• The zipsignals service fee is applied on a per subscription basis and is determined by the system's monthly price and number of subscribers (see Fee Chart).
• The service fee is calculated on the 5th and 20th of every month.
• The calculation on the 20th includes subscriptions collected on the 1st day through the 15th day of the month.
• The calculation on the 5th includes subscriptions collected on the 16th day through the last day of the month for the previous month.
• The fee is calculated for each trading system by :

1. Sum all payments in the period
2. Count current total subscribers
3. Look-up the fee percentage by monthly fee and number of subscribers. (see Fee Chart)
4. Multiply fee percentage by sum of payments

Example

• 25 subscriptions at $155.00 each were taken between Jan 1 and Jan 15, $3,875.00 gross
• Total net amount is $3,750.00 after payment fees (PayPal fees, currency exchange fees, etc...)
• On Jan 20, the system has 50 active clients
• Based on this data the fee percentage is 20%
• The fee amount is ($3750.00 * .20) or $750.00
• Your net amount is ($3750.00 - $750.00) or $3000.00
• You will receive a transfer for $3,000.00 with an invoice showing the zipsignals service fee of $750.00
• This is a simplified example, payment processor fees can vary significantly.
