Currensee partners with Thomson Reuters; Tweets Trades

Currensee, world's first Forex social network, has made a couple of interesting additions to its platform. First is the addition of Thomson Reuters widgets which you can purchase with Currensee bucks and provide you various ideas, strategies and analysis. Second is the ability to Tweet your Trades and Positions from Currensee's platform to your Twitter account.

It seems that Currensee are on the right track with these latest additions as the most important thing for a social network is to provide more and more content and activities to its participants from INSIDE the platform so that the participants will never have to leave to perform any other task.

A bit more about the Thomson Reuters widgets:

Currensee members can now purchase exclusive widgets featuring Thomson Reuters IFR Markets trade and market data from the Currensee Marketplace, the trusted source for Forex-related products and services. The widgets deliver professional-level trade data and analysis that is typically only available through brokers or large institutions. They include:

Trading Desk, which provides real-time trading ideas with stops and targets, support & resistance levels, and analysis and strategy

Squawk Box, which provides fundamental and technical commentary and analysis, including unique news events and economic data

Order Board, which provides indications of potentially significant orders, price points, option-related price levels and buying/selling interest

The Currensee Thomson Reuters widgets are delivered instantly through the member’s personal dashboard on Currensee. For a limited time, Currensee members have the opportunity to purchase the Thomson Reuters IFR Markets widgets at introductory pricing, including individual two-week trials, and a bundled discount for all three exclusive widgets, all starting at just 20 Currensee Bucks. To take advantage of the Thomson Reuters IFRM Markets widget offer, Forex traders can join Currensee at www.currensee.com/thomsonreuters. Introductory pricing is for a limited time.

A bit more about Currensee's Tweet My Trades feature:

The Tweet My Trades feature is the first Twitter application that enables traders to automatically tweet their actual trades and positions to Twitter in real time.

“Twitter integration is something our traders have been asking for and we’re excited to launch this innovative new feature and Leverage Twitter,” said Asaf Yigal, co-founder and VP of Product at Currensee. “Tweet My Trades is different from StockTwits, TradeMonster and many of the other Twitter-based trading apps because we automatically tweet the trader’s actual trades and positions. It’s one thing to say the EUR/USD is going to break out or you’re going long the AUD/NZD, but it’s quite another to actually take the position and share that information with your followers on Twitter.”

The Tweet My Trades feature is one more example of how Currensee is changing the world of Forex by bringing trust and transparency to traders across the globe. By giving traders the ability to extend their trade collaboration beyond the Currensee platform, Currensee continues to innovate social trading for Forex traders. Since Currensee is the only Forex platform that is connected in real time to over 100 Forex brokers, the moment the trader executes their order, Currensee instantly sends the tweet on the trader’s behalf.
