The International Securities Exchange (NYSE: ISE) said today that it has
partnered with Optionetics, Inc., a recognized leader in options
education, in a joint effort to educate retail investors about ISE FX
Options™. Optionetics will incorporate
information and trading strategies for ISE FX Options into its
two-day seminar series Trading the Foreign Exchange Markets,
which are executed by its affiliate FX Trading Education Corp. (FXTE).
During these seminars, investors will learn how to enter into positions
while controlling risk and targeting profit and will gain a greater
understanding of the mechanics of foreign exchange trading.
Bruce Goldberg, ISE’s Chief Marketing Officer,
said, “ISE has long been committed to
educating investors about the benefits of options trading. As we prepare
for the launch of ISE FX Options, we are pleased to partner with
Optionetics and FXTE to complement and expand the reach of our
educational efforts and increase awareness of the multiple trading
strategies available for investors in this asset class.”
“ISE FX Options are an important
addition to the range of FX products currently available to investors.
They will allow investors to trade their views on the strength of the
dollar through straightforward strategies, and we look forward to
providing this essential training to Optionetics and FXTE students,”
said Richard Cawood, CEO of Optionetics.
ISE FX Options are scheduled to launch in the early second
quarter of 2007, pending SEC approval. ISE will initially list four
currency pairs: USD/EUR (Symbol: EUI), USD/GBP (Symbol: BPX), USD/JPY
(Symbol: YUK), and USD/CAD (Symbol: CDD).
Investors will be able to access these securities through most major
brokerage accounts that are approved for trading equity and index
options. Optionetics, FXTE and ISE have also collaborated to produce an
interactive CD-ROM, featuring ISE instructors Alex Jacobson and Steve
Meizinger, that provides an overview of trading strategies for ISE FX
Options. The CD-ROM will be available in April, and investors can
contact their options broker for a complimentary copy.
FXTE’s seminar schedule for April includes
Tampa, FL on April 9-10, 2007; Phoenix, AZ on April 12-13, 2007; and San
