US Congressional Trader

The United States Congress is recognised globally as a political powerhouse. What’s more, the success of their financial portfolios is impressive. Performance analysis of both Republican and Democratic congressional members’ portfolios suggests that they have a superior stock-picking ability compared to the best professional money managers, perhaps by virtue of some finely-tuned intuition? Savvy minds make smart investments, so following in their financial footsteps is likely to be a sure-fire way to an impressive portfolio.

Be aware of the risk

Trading leveraged products on the Forex platform, such as foreign exchange, spot precious metals and Contracts for Difference (CFDs), involves significant risk of loss due to the leverage and may not be suitable for all investors. Prior to opening an account with Swissquote, consider your level of experience, investment objectives, assets, income and risk appetite. Losses are in theory unlimited and you may be required to make additional payments if your account balance falls below the required margin level and therefore you should not speculate, invest or hedge with capital you cannot afford to lose, that is borrowed or urgently needed or necessary for personal or family subsistence. Over the past 12 months, 76.32% of retail investors have either lost money when trading CFDs, experienced a total loss of their margin at the closing of their position or ended up with a negative balance after closing their position. You should be aware of all the risks associated with foreign exchange trading and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts. For more details, including information on the leverage effect, how margins work, and counterparty and market risks, please refer to our Forex and CFD Risk Disclosure.
