Major Belarusian Bank Starts Offering Bitcoin CFD as Belarus Gets Less Crypto Friendly
A well-known bank in Belarus will begin offering a bitcoin contract for difference (CFD) product through its platform, a joint project with a Swiss bank. Meanwhile, Belarus is growing less crypto friendly, reportedly amending its decree to impose strict KYC rules.
New Bitcoin CFD Product
Mtbankfx is an accredited FX dealer and the first banking forex platform in Belarus. Launched in July 2016, it is a joint project between Minsk Transit Bank (Mtbank), one of the most well-known banks in Belarus, and Swiss Dukascopy Bank SA.
The platform will start offering a bitcoin CFD product next week, according to local media. It has already added information and updated its terms of service to reflect this new offering.
Mtbankfx explains in its terms of service that its tools, including the BTC/USD tool with 1:3 leverage, are “available for transactions around the clock – from the opening of the market on Sundays at 21:00 GMT in the summer (22:00 GMT in the winter) until the market closes on Fridays at 20:00 GMT in summer/winter time.” For the bitcoin CFD specifically, the company wrote:
All open positions as of 20:00 GMT Fridays will be forcibly closed.
While the platform offers CFDs for many underlying assets, the bitcoin CFD is the only one that will be forcibly closed.
On March 29, Switzerland’s Dukascopy Bank SA launched its own BTC/USD CFD product for European clients. “Bitcoin to US Dollar (BTC/USD) with leverage 1:3 has been added for live trading,” the company stated.
Belarus Becoming Less Crypto Friendly
Belarusian president Alexander Lukashenko signed the decree “On the development of the digital economy” in January that legalized cryptocurrencies, initial coin offerings, and smart contracts. The decree went into effect in March.
However, local media reported this week that amendments to that decree are already being prepared to obligate cryptocurrency exchanges operating within the High-Tech Park (HTP) to disclose their data and identify customers.
Ria Novosti’s source explained that “beneficiaries must meet the requirements for reputation” such as having no criminal record and no bankruptcy proceedings against them, in whole or part. “They should [also] show the availability of funds in accounts of at least $5 million and confirm the sources of their origin.” Additionally, Forklog elaborated:
Operators are required to identify the clients of the exchanges, as well as record and store all types of communications with them. In certain cases, exchange-residents of the HTP will be required to conduct customer verification procedures.
The news outlet added, “information about customers and their transactions should be stored at crypto exchanges for at least five years.”

Trading Bitcoin Contracts for Difference (CFDs)
Futures are a special type of investment asset that allow you to invest in various commodities. From gold to cattle, and everything in between, futures expand the field of available investment opportunities to pretty much any commodity of value. Futures are essential for setting global prices on important commodities, such as oil, and support complex global markets, such as markets for agricultural goods.
When you purchase an Ethereum or Bitcoin future, you are basically signing a contract to purchase something at a later date, at a specific price. So if you buy for example an Ethereum future for 1,000 Ethereum token, you are actually buying a contract for the delivery of 1,000 Ethereum token, once the contract comes due. Most traders, however, sell their futures contract before it comes due and the tokens are delivered.
One way traders can avoid having to physically accept delivery of a commodity is through a “Contract for Difference.” In this case, the buyer and seller agree to pay any difference as prices rise or fall in cash, instead of through the delivery of physical goods. An Ethereum or Bitcoin contract for difference allows an investor to tap into the benefits and risks of Bitcoin / Ethereum trading without having to physically own the coin itself.
Let’s go back to our Ethereum example to see how this works. Let’s assume that you are very confident that Ethereum prices will rise in the near future and you want to invest in Ethereum. Now, you could go out and purchase Ethereum, but can sometimes be a very complex process since purchasing Ethereum isn’t all that easy today.
Instead of buying actual Ethereum, or even a future that would require the future delivery of the Ethereum, you could purchase a contract for difference (or in short CFD). In this arrangement, you and the seller of the contract for difference would agree to settle any rise or drop in prices in cash on the contract date, which is the date that the contract ends. For example, you might sign a contract for difference with a major trading company such as Plus500 for Ethereum at today’s prices, with the contract ending at 10pm (since all Ethereum trades at Plus500 have to end by that time. In this case, the current price of Ethereum will set the value to be traded. Meanwhile, you will set a contract time, in this case several hours into the future, which is the point at which any difference will be paid to either the buyer or seller.
If your intuition about rising or dropping Ethereum prices turns out to be correct, and prices change through that time frame, you will be paid the difference by the trading company. On the other hand, if your intuition turns out to be incorrect and prices don’t go as you expected, you will have to pay the difference, in this case to the trading company. In a certain sense, the buyer and seller are essentially betting on whether or not prices will rise or drop.
Contracts for differences offer investors ways to make money off of changes in Ethereum prices without the hassle associated with directly trading Ethereum. As such, contracts for differences are very popular among traders and numerous different brokering firms. Such contracts allow investors to generate profits off of changing conditions in global markets as demand and supply rises and falls for various commodities.
Keep in mind that when trading Ethereum CFDs your capital is at risk. Trading Ethereum CFDs is more suitable for experienced traders.
CRYPTOCURRENCIES
Trade Bitcoin, Ethereum and Ripple
Cryptocurrencies changed the face of global finance – touted as the next evolutionary stage of currency. If you want to be on bleeding edge of technology and the currency markets, then cryptocurrencies could be the perfect choice.
Why Trade Cryptocurrencies?
Decentralized
Cryptocurrencies are seldom affected by policy changes or geopolitical instability – and we have seen markets treat it as a safe-haven because of this.
Cryptocurrencies are extremely active compared to traditional currencies. Prices can change remarkably within days or even hours. This creates a new frontier for trading.
More Choice
Each market has its own benefits and disadvantages, knowing when and in what combination these should be taken advantage of can optimize your trading strategy.
New Opportunity
We have seen cryptos enter the mainstream, skyrocket to five figures and plummet within a few months. CFDs allow you to both buy and sell the underlying cryptocurrency.
Cryptocurrency 101
- Ethereum and Bitcoin are digital currencies based on blockchain ledger technology
- Ripple is based on a payment protocol
- Cryptocurrencies prices are driven largely by supply and demand
- No exchange account or digital wallet necessary
- Trade immediately online, no need to wait for buyers or sellers
- Not as heavily effected by central bank policy, geopolitics or political instability
- One of the most innovative and active markets today

Repair the Yahoo Search App.
Yahoo Search App from the Google Play Store on my Samsung Galaxy S8+ phone stopped working on May 18, 2018.
I went to the Yahoo Troubleshooting page but the article that said to do a certain 8 steps to fix the problem with Yahoo Services not working and how to fix the problem. Of course they didn't work.
I contacted Samsung thru their Samsung Tutor app on my phone. I gave their Technican access to my phone to see if there was a problem with my phone that stopped the Yahoo Search App from working. He went to Yahoo and I signed in so he could try to fix the Yahoo Search App not working. He also used another phone, installed the app from the Google Play Store to see if the app would do any kind of search thru the app. The Yahoo Search App just wasn't working.
I also had At&t try to help me because I have UVERSE for my internet service. My internet was working perfectly. Their Technical Support team member checked the Yahoo Search App and it wouldn't work for him either.
We can go to www.yahoo.com and search for any topic or website. It's just the Yahoo Search App that won't allow anyone to do web searches at all.
I let Google know that the Yahoo Search App installed from their Google Play Store had completely stopped working on May 18, 2018.
I told them that Yahoo has made sure that their Yahoo members can't contact them about anything.
I noticed that right after I accepted the agreement that said Oath had joined with Verizon I started having the problem with the Yahoo Search App.
No matter what I search for or website thru the Yahoo Search App it says the following after I searched for
www.att.com.

I tried to search for things like www.homedepot.com. The same thing happened. It would say WEBPAGE NOT AVAILABLE. The only thing that changed were all the upper and lower case letters, numbers and symbols.
Then it would again say

This is the same thing that happened when Samsung and At&t tried to do any kind of searches thru the Yahoo Search App.

Making money with Ethereum CFDs

Did you know that you can trade Ethereum through CFDs. CFDs (contract for difference) are an investment product that allows you to trade on the price of an underlying asset without needing to take ownership of it. I’ve put together this post to explain a bit more about Ethereum CFDs and how you can make money trading them.
Trading Apple shares using Bitcoin

And volatility means there is potential to profit. So while you could just leave your Bitcoin sitting around, if you’re a trader and think there are plays to be made trading Apple, why not use your capital assets to grow more wealth!?

The advantages of trading Bitcoin CFDs
For the past year, I’ve been trading bitcoin via CFDs and also through exchanges. While both are potential ways to make money, I feel that trading CFDs offer some advantages over trading bitcoin directly at an exchange.
Here are some of the reasons I love trading Bitcoin CFDs. But first up let me explain what a CFD is:
Whaleclub Review: Trade forex and stocks with Bitcoin
Whaleclub is a newer trading platform that only accepts digital currency. There are lots and lots of forex and stock brokers online, but only a couple that accept cryptocurrecy. And Whaleclub is one of them.
Whaleclub doesn’t deal in any fiat currency, and in doing so, things feel much more fast and fluid – like a true trading platform for 2017 and beyond.
CFD Trading with Bitcoin
Did you know that you can now use Bitcoin to trade CFDs. And it works just like traditional trading platforms. But instead of depositing via fiat currency, you deposit with Bitcoin.
So instead of just hoarding your bitcoins away, they can be used for trading and making money.
What is CFD Trading
CFD trading is an agreement between you and your broker to pay the difference between the opening and closing prices of an underlying asset. That may sound complicated, but the reality is that CFD trading is just like regular trading. In practice, CFD trading will feel just like the trading you’ve done on other financial instruments. You can buy and sell stocks, indicies and commodities and CFDs offers some major advantages over other assets.
Lots of brokers offer CFDs, but there are only a few that accept Bitcoin. By only accepting Bitcoin, these brokers offer a few advantages – let me explain.
The Advantages of Bitcoin CFD Brokers
CFD trading using Bitcoin is a fast and seamless experience. There are no lengthy verification processes to go through, deposits and withdrawals are usually instant and some brokers even allow you to remain anonymous for your privacy.
Trading on WhaleClub
WhaleClub is a CFD broker, that only accepts digital currency. They have a great trading interface that is easy to use with good quality charts. In terms of markets they offer all the major forex pairs, a small selection of stocks, and the basic commodities.
If you don’t want to trade using real money, it’s also possible to sign up for free and trading using a demo account. This way you’ll get to grips with the interface and how things work without risking real money.
Trading on 1Broker
1Broker is a forex and stock cfd broker that runs on Bitcoin. Instead of the base currency being USD or another fiat currency, it’s BTC (bitcoin). This offers a seamless trading experience if you’re looking to trade using your bitcoin.
1Broker also has a nifty copy trading feature. This lets you automatically copy the trades of profitable traders. You simply choose how much capital you want to use per trade and set a limit on the number of trades that will be copied per day. While the copy trading is primitive compared to what you can do on a platform like eToro, 1broker is the only place where you can copy trade using bitcoin.

Bitcoin trade price comparison
Assuming bitcoin is priced at $9500

Figures are based on a notional value of £9500 representative of a £1/pt bet when bitcoin is priced at $9500. Data is based on analysis of bitcoin offering from prominent UK competitor websites and is correct to the best of our ability as of 26 April 2018. Table for comparative purposes only. Values in brackets reflect clients receiving. Above data includes the forced expiries for Plus 500 and Trading 212 where clients are charged spread to close, and spread to re-open the trade. Data is subject to change.
* When negative values in brackets implies clients receive
** Where 1 month is 31 days starting Monday 1st
*** Where 1 year is 365 days starting Monday 1st
NB: Plus 500 and Trading 212 both have forced expiry dates which would result in you paying spread to get back into the trade. Plus 500 (forced expiry every 20 days) and Trading 212 (expires on the last Friday of each calendar month) factored into calculations.

What is bitcoin?
Back in 2009, an anonymous person or group known as Satoshi Nakamoto created a decentralised digital currency known as bitcoin.
Watch our video to learn more about what exactly bitcoin is, how it functions and how it’s created. Plus, find out more about why the cryptocurrency has become so popular – and what its future holds in the long term.
Live bitcoin prices
Prices above are subject to our website terms and conditions. Prices are indicative only.
How leveraged bitcoin trading works
Bitcoin is usually quoted against the US dollar — so when you buy bitcoin on an exchange, you are selling USD and buying bitcoin. If bitcoin’s price rises, then you can sell it for a profit, because bitcoin is worth more USD than when you bought it. If bitcoin’s price falls, then you make a loss.
When you buy bitcoin with IG, you’re doing the same thing. But instead of taking ownership of bitcoin, you’re opening a position that will increase in value as bitcoin’s price increases against the dollar. If bitcoin’s price falls, then your position will lose value.
We offer two forms of leveraged bitcoin trading: CFDs and spread bets. You can use both to open short positions as well as long: so if bitcoin's price drops, your position increases in value. Our spreads start at just 110 points. Bitcoin can be traded on all our trading platforms, including MT4.
Bitcoin CFD example
You're interested in trading a bitcoin in USD via a CFD. Our price is currently 2550 to sell bitcoin, or 2560 to buy it.
You believe that bitcoin’s price will fall against the dollar, so you sell 1 contract at 2550 (equivalent to selling 100 bitcoins at $2550).
The bitcoin price falls and our new price is 2500/2510. You decide to take your profit by buying at 2510.
$2550 - $2510 = $40 move or 40 points
Your gross profit is 40 x $100 = $4000.
If the market had rallied 50 points instead, your gross loss would be $5000. 3
Bitcoin spread betting example
Our price is currently 2550 to sell bitcoin (USD), or 2560 to buy it.
You believe bitcoin’s price will rise against the dollar, so you buy £25 per point at 2560 (equivalent to exposure an exposure of £25 at a price of 2560 = £64,000).
The bitcoin price climbs and our new price is 2600/2610. You decide to take your profit by selling to close at 2600.
$2600 - $2560 = $40 move or 40 points
Your gross profit is 40 x £25 = £1000. 3

Do I need a bitcoin wallet to trade bitcoin markets with IG?
No. With IG you are simply speculating on the price movement of bitcoin ($). You never need to actually own any.
Can I short bitcoin with IG?
Yes. With our FX pairs you never hold bitcoin in the real sense, so you can take a short view to open on bitcoins.
Do you offer advanced order types?
Yes. You can open your position at the current price, or select your preferred entry point. We also offer a range of stops and limits, including trailing stops that lock in profits and guaranteed stops that can’t suffer slippage.
How are IG's bitcoin settlements derived?
IG’s bitcoin settlement is based on a combination of real time prices provided directly by some of the world’s most liquid bitcoin exchanges.
When are your bitcoin markets available?
Bitcoin (USD) opens at 4am on Saturday, and is available to trade until 10pm on Friday.
(London time) (market holidays permitting).
What is bitcoin cash?
Bitcoin cash is a new cryptocurrency. Launched in August 2017 as a result of a split in the bitcoin transaction ledger (known as the blockchain), it operates under a different set of rules to bitcoin, and with a different blockchain altogether.
Learn more about the differences between bitcoin and bitcoin cash.
How did bitcoin cash come about?
Bitcoin’s skyrocketing popularity was causing difficulties for the bitcoin mining community, which struggled to keep up with the capacity of transactions. Traders were having to wait an increasingly long time for their transactions to go through, and expected to pay additional fees if they wanted things to move quicker.
Cue disagreement within the community about how exactly to solve the scalability problem. Many miners felt that existing restrictions imposed by the software needed to be revised, while others felt this would disincentivise miners and devalue the cryptocurrency. This ultimately led to a split, or ‘hard fork’, in the blockchain.
Bitcoin forks aren’t uncommon, but there is usually a consensus on which version of the blockchain to discard. On this occasion, however, neither was discarded. This resulted in two tokens: the original bitcoin, and the new bitcoin cash.
This enabled bitcoin cash miners to apply new rules to their mining software and expand the currency’s transaction capacity, among other changes. As such, despite a shared transaction history, the two currencies are now entirely incompatible with one another.
Can I trade bitcoin on the MetaTrader 4 platform?
Yes, you can use the MetraTrader 4 (MT4) platform to trade bitcoin against the US dollar. With MT4, you’ll gain access to low latency execution, as well as a number of free apps, indicators and tools.

Question on a link
In the search for Anaïs Nin, one of the first few links shows a picture of a man. Why? Since Nin is a woman, I can’t figure out why. Can you show some reason for this? Who is he? If you click on the picture a group of pictures of Nin and no mention of that man. Is it an error?
Repair the Yahoo Search App.
Yahoo Search App from the Google Play Store on my Samsung Galaxy S8+ phone stopped working on May 18, 2018.
I went to the Yahoo Troubleshooting page but the article that said to do a certain 8 steps to fix the problem with Yahoo Services not working and how to fix the problem. Of course they didn't work.
I contacted Samsung thru their Samsung Tutor app on my phone. I gave their Technican access to my phone to see if there was a problem with my phone that stopped the Yahoo Search App from working. He went to Yahoo and I signed in so he could try to fix the Yahoo Search App not working. He also used another phone, installed the app from the Google Play Store to see if the app would do any kind of search thru the app. The Yahoo Search App just wasn't working.
I also had At&t try to help me because I have UVERSE for my internet service. My internet was working perfectly. Their Technical Support team member checked the Yahoo Search App and it wouldn't work for him either.
We can go to www.yahoo.com and search for any topic or website. It's just the Yahoo Search App that won't allow anyone to do web searches at all.
I let Google know that the Yahoo Search App installed from their Google Play Store had completely stopped working on May 18, 2018.
I told them that Yahoo has made sure that their Yahoo members can't contact them about anything.
I noticed that right after I accepted the agreement that said Oath had joined with Verizon I started having the problem with the Yahoo Search App.
No matter what I search for or website thru the Yahoo Search App it says the following after I searched for
www.att.com.
WEBPAGE NOT AVAILABLE
This webpage at gttp://r.search.yahoo.com/_ylt=A0geJGq8BbkrgALEMMITE5jylu=X3oDMTEzcTjdWsyBGNvbG8DYmyxBHBvcwMxBHZ0aWQDTkFQUEMwxzEEc2VjA3NylRo=10/Ru=https%3a%2f%2fwww.att.att.com%2f/Rk=2/Es=plkGNRAB61_XKqFjTEN7J8cXA-
could not be loaded because:
net::ERR_CLEARTEXT_NOT_PERMITTED
I tried to search for things like www.homedepot.com. The same thing happened. It would say WEBPAGE NOT AVAILABLE. The only thing that changed were all the upper and lower case letters, numbers and symbols.
Then it would again say
could not be loaded because:
net::ERR_CLEARTEXT_NOT_PERMITTED
This is the same thing that happened when Samsung and At&t tried to do any kind of searches thru the Yahoo Search App.
Yahoo needs to fix the problem with their app.

Bitcoin trade price comparison
Assuming bitcoin is priced at $9500

Figures are based on a notional value of £9500 representative of a £1/pt bet when bitcoin is priced at $9500. Data is based on analysis of bitcoin offering from prominent UK competitor websites and is correct to the best of our ability as of 26 April 2018. Table for comparative purposes only. Values in brackets reflect clients receiving. Above data includes the forced expiries for Plus 500 and Trading 212 where clients are charged spread to close, and spread to re-open the trade. Data is subject to change.
* When negative values in brackets implies clients receive
** Where 1 month is 31 days starting Monday 1st
*** Where 1 year is 365 days starting Monday 1st
NB: Plus 500 and Trading 212 both have forced expiry dates which would result in you paying spread to get back into the trade. Plus 500 (forced expiry every 20 days) and Trading 212 (expires on the last Friday of each calendar month) factored into calculations.

What is bitcoin?
Back in 2009, an anonymous person or group known as Satoshi Nakamoto created a decentralised digital currency known as bitcoin.
Watch our video to learn more about what exactly bitcoin is, how it functions and how it’s created. Plus, find out more about why the cryptocurrency has become so popular – and what its future holds in the long term.
Live bitcoin prices
Prices above are subject to our website terms and conditions. Prices are indicative only.
How leveraged bitcoin trading works
Bitcoin is usually quoted against the US dollar — so when you buy bitcoin on an exchange, you are selling USD and buying bitcoin. If bitcoin’s price rises, then you can sell it for a profit, because bitcoin is worth more USD than when you bought it. If bitcoin’s price falls, then you make a loss.
When you buy bitcoin with IG, you’re doing the same thing. But instead of taking ownership of bitcoin, you’re opening a position that will increase in value as bitcoin’s price increases against the dollar. If bitcoin’s price falls, then your position will lose value.
We offer two forms of leveraged bitcoin trading: CFDs and spread bets. You can use both to open short positions as well as long: so if bitcoin's price drops, your position increases in value. Our spreads start at just 110 points. Bitcoin can be traded on all our trading platforms, including MT4.
Bitcoin CFD example
You're interested in trading a bitcoin in USD via a CFD. Our price is currently 2550 to sell bitcoin, or 2560 to buy it.
You believe that bitcoin’s price will fall against the dollar, so you sell 1 contract at 2550 (equivalent to selling 100 bitcoins at $2550).
The bitcoin price falls and our new price is 2500/2510. You decide to take your profit by buying at 2510.
$2550 - $2510 = $40 move or 40 points
Your gross profit is 40 x $100 = $4000.
If the market had rallied 50 points instead, your gross loss would be $5000. 3
Bitcoin spread betting example
Our price is currently 2550 to sell bitcoin (USD), or 2560 to buy it.
You believe bitcoin’s price will rise against the dollar, so you buy £25 per point at 2560 (equivalent to exposure an exposure of £25 at a price of 2560 = £64,000).
The bitcoin price climbs and our new price is 2600/2610. You decide to take your profit by selling to close at 2600.
$2600 - $2560 = $40 move or 40 points
Your gross profit is 40 x £25 = £1000. 3

What is bitcoin cash?
Bitcoin cash is a new cryptocurrency. Launched in August 2017 as a result of a split in the bitcoin transaction ledger (known as the blockchain), it operates under a different set of rules to bitcoin, and with a different blockchain altogether.
Learn more about the differences between bitcoin and bitcoin cash.
How did bitcoin cash come about?
Bitcoin’s skyrocketing popularity was causing difficulties for the bitcoin mining community, which struggled to keep up with the capacity of transactions. Traders were having to wait an increasingly long time for their transactions to go through, and expected to pay additional fees if they wanted things to move quicker.
Cue disagreement within the community about how exactly to solve the scalability problem. Many miners felt that existing restrictions imposed by the software needed to be revised, while others felt this would disincentivise miners and devalue the cryptocurrency. This ultimately led to a split, or ‘hard fork’, in the blockchain.
Bitcoin forks aren’t uncommon, but there is usually a consensus on which version of the blockchain to discard. On this occasion, however, neither was discarded. This resulted in two tokens: the original bitcoin, and the new bitcoin cash.
This enabled bitcoin cash miners to apply new rules to their mining software and expand the currency’s transaction capacity, among other changes. As such, despite a shared transaction history, the two currencies are now entirely incompatible with one another.
Can I trade bitcoin on the MetaTrader 4 platform?
Yes, you can use the MetraTrader 4 (MT4) platform to trade bitcoin against the US dollar. With MT4, you’ll gain access to low latency execution, as well as a number of free apps, indicators and tools.

What is Bitcoin?
Known as a “ cryptocurrency ”, Bitcoin is a form of digital currency. Since it was created in 2009 it has become an increasingly widely accepted form of international currency, used by everyone from governments to small retail outlets.
Unlike traditional forms of currency which rely on banks to facilitate transactions, Bitcoin is part of a decentralised online payment network relying on cryptography to pass securely from user to user using Blockchain technology. As a traded currency, Bitcoin works in exactly the same way as any other FX pair.
Why trade a cryptocurrency as a CFD?
Because Bitcoin it is not a centralised currency controlled by a single bank or dominated by interbank dealers, the Bitcoin market moves quickly with retail demand and can be subject to significant price swings. Using this high volatility ambitious traders are able to take advantage of large price swings to pursue unique profit opportunities.
And you don’t need to own any Bitcoins to profit from it - all you need to do is trade on the price movements, meaning you have the potential to profit from either direction.
Is CFD trading regulated?
When trading a volatile cryptocurrency like Bitcoin as a CFD, it’s crucial to choose a reputable and accountable broker for your trades. When you trade Bitcoin CFDs with AxiTrader you’ll enjoy the same comprehensive ASIC and FCA regulation you get with all our standard FX/CFD products.

Risk Warning
Cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin are extremely volatile and can move or jump in price with no apparent reason due to lack of liquidity and adhoc news. There is little or no fundamental reasoning behind its pricing and as such trading CFDs in Bitcoin pose a significant risk to Retail Clients. While AxiTrader only quotes Bitcoin during the week, it can trade over the weekend, meaning there could be a significant price change between Friday and Monday. It should only therefore be traded by those clients with sufficient experience to understand that they risk losing all their investment, or more, in a short period of time, and only a very small part of their portfolio should be used.
