Global Forex Trading Announces New Dealable Prices

Effective in Transaction Sizes Up to 20 Million Units in Four Markets

ADA, Michigan, 10 January , 2003 - Global Forex Trading announced today that the company will now offer dealable prices on transaction sizes up to 20 million in the USD/CHF, USD/JPY, GBP/USD and EUR/USD markets.

Global Forex Trading has made this increase due to the increasing needs of asset managers and mid- to small level banks that have been using Global Forex Trading's platform as their primary liquidity provider.

"Many institutional traders have found a home at GFT because of our superior liquidity and competitive pricing," said Gary Tilkin, president of Global Forex Trading. "In many cases, our trading desk has at its disposal more liquidity than many top tier FX banks. For an asset manager, it is important to know you are getting a good price on the market. By taking advantage of the anonymity that GFT provides - standing in-between the client and the top money center banks - execution becomes easier, more efficient and with less slippage from the desired entry point."

Global Forex Trading cites its inter-bank dealing relationships as the main factor behind the company's unparalleled liquidity in the retail FX market maker sector.
