Professional Forex-traders and brokers started Investment House International (IHI). Its founders also numbered software developers among their ranks. According to the company profile this has allowed IHI to cater to the needs of traders from its very inception. The company was actually founded in 2002. IHI claims to be one of the world's leading online retail trading institutions and seeks to provide user-friendly Forex trading software. Over a 3-year period the company experienced 250% growth.
IHI supports over 5,000 clients on a worldwide basis including institutions and individuals. Client funds are insured and held in a separate customer account. The company serves clients in English, French, Spanish, Chinese, Russian and Arabic. The exact geographical location of the company is not easily determined from information available online. Other sources indicate that IHI has offices in the British Virgin Islands.
New clients can open accounts with IHI with a minimum $500 invested. A standard account offers spreads for EUR/USD of 2 pips at there lowest. The company can act as an introducing broker. Apparently IHI operates as a non-regulated broker.
IHI FX's platform trading software is called Vertex Trader. Vertex Trader is not proprietary to IHI. The platform offers a client terminal with a Net Trade screen through which a trader can read his net trades for each symbol. This lets a trader decide based on the Average price what action to take. All open positions can be selected and closed by a single click. PDA and Web trading capabilities are built into the platform, which is available as a single 6 MB download.
Like many such sites the IHI web site offers some educational content, which is designed to allow new traders to grasp Forex market principles and distinctions. A Forex glossary is also featured. Client support appears to be email-based.
