Currensee has seen the proportion of applications from Forex  money managers to the <a href=\"http:\/\/currensee.com\/invest\/how-it-works\" target=\"_blank\">Trade Leaders\u2122 Investment Program<\/a> double since January 2011. The program allows retail investors to  automatically replicate the trades of some of the most successful  traders in the world, called <a href=\"http:\/\/currensee.com\/invest\/leaderboard\" target=\"_blank\">Currensee Trade Leaders<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Trade  Leaders receive 15 percent of the monthly profits they generate for the  investors that have chosen to automatically follow their trades. More  than $3 billion has been traded through the program since its launch in  October 2010. The program is available worldwide and has investors from  more than 50 countries, giving money managers the ability to grow their  businesses globally without the headache of marketing, operations and  reporting.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re  impressed at how quickly investment companies and professional money  managers have applied to become Trade Leaders in order to access new  markets,\u201d said Dave Lemont, CEO of Currensee. \u201cIt shows that many  companies are keen to try out new ideas that might give them the edge in  attracting global investors and new assets without additional sales or  operating expense or effort.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Of  the 14 Trade Leaders selected by Currensee after extensive checks and  analysis, 11 are money managers, including three recently added Trade  Leaders \u2013 Gabor FX, a Hungarian trading group, Trader Tradingsystema, a  Swiss investment company, and Joiny FX, a Chinese money management firm.<\/p>\n<p>Joiny  FX has been trading Forex for six years.
