One key advantage to starting a forex fund is that the fund manager can legally accept compensation for his or her trading and advisory services. In many cases, the fund manager can legally advertise their services as well. This compensation can provide an excellent supplement to an existing income or it may allow trader to work as a paid forex adviser on a full-time basis. In our experience, many forex new fund managers also keep their "day jobs" for a while until they are certain this is the business they want to be in. Market conditions have never been better.
