· Boris Schlossberg, Senior Currency Analyst

· Amro Abdu, Vice President, Middle East Institutional Sales Division

The two-day conference, held at the Beach Rotana Hotel in Abu Dhabi, UAE, will feature more than a dozen currency trading experts from the Middle East, Europe and the US.

Boris Schlossberg, one of the best-known currency analysts in the US and a frequent commentator for Reuters, Bloomberg and CNBC, will address the Expo on both days.

At noon on Tuesday, November 27, he will unveil "Secrets of Currency Trading." Schlossberg will provide an insider's view of the currency market, and the timing and trading strategies that work for the experts.

At 10:30 on Wednesday Schlossberg will examine "Trading Opportunities in 2008."

"Next year offers tremendous forex market risks and opportunities," said Schlossberg, "because we will find out if the dollar continues to collapse, affecting every other economy and currency valuation."

"Fifty percent of America's gross domestic product is real estate-related. If the mortgage resets plus the high price of oil and other commodities continue to weigh on US consumer demand, the possibility of a US recession increases. If, on the other hand, the devalued dollar stimulates US exports, and global demand remain strong, the US economy should regain balance."

"Ultimately, everything will depend on US job growth," said Schlossberg. "As long as the US consumer has income to service his debts, the danger of a US recession is minimal."

The only presentation in the Arabic language will be given by Amro Abdu, Vice President of Middle East Institutional Sales Division. Mr. Abdu will outline the benefits of "No Dealing Desk" trade execution. According to Mr. Abdu, this increasingly popular style of forex trade execution results in more liquidity, tighter spreads for retail traders, since they are trading through FXCM with some of the prime banks of the world.
