CitiFX Pro, Citi’s online forex trading platform for active individual and small institutional clients, today announced that it will sponsor a large-scale online survey designed to provide information on the background, trading methodology and chosen technology of margin foreign exchange traders around the world.

The CitiFX Pro Forex Trader Survey 2010 – the first-ever industry-wide survey of forex traders – will be conducted online in partnership with major forex media outlets including FXstreet.com, ActionForex, ForexPros and ForexTV. The results of the anonymous survey will provide insight into the thinking and behaviour of forex traders.

“CitiFX Pro is very enthusiastic about sponsoring this major survey of forex traders,” said Sanjay Madgavkar, Global Head of Margin FX Trading at Citi. “The survey will only take about four minutes for traders to complete online and will generate a great deal of useful information about what forex traders need and want in terms of instruction, technology, pricing and methodology. We urge all active forex traders to participate.”

Any trader can take the survey starting on September 9, 2010 at http://www.fxstreet.com/about/survey. Survey data will be analyzed immediately and results will begin appearing in early October of 2010.
