FOXES (FOreX Event Screener)

FOXES is the IX Forum Forex Event Screener. It helps investors and traders understand how major economic events can move currency markets by reviewing historic reactions to news such as inflation data, employment figures, interest rate decisions and central bank statements.

Instead of guessing how markets may respond, FoXES gives users a structured way to analyse event risk, compare previous outcomes and build greater awareness as part of their education and preparation around key announcements

Take a quick look 

FOXES brings a unique way to visualize and grasp the impact, or potential impact of macroeconomic data on one's trades and investments. It brings together minute by minute detailed comparative historical views of macro responses (currency pairs, major indices, and commodities) to key economic indicators such as interest rates, inflation, and employment

This enables both a fine grained feel for how the market responds and by how much, implications which then extend into the longer term understanding of how asset classes are performing and why

These views are easiest digested as commentaries giving high resolution vision both to FX trading if trading fundamentals, and importantly also both to weekly and monthly options traders and to long-term investors needing to understand what is influencing price for their key instruments

Why EaGLES?

Company earnings announcements can create some of the most significant short-term movements in individual stocks

For investors, this can create both opportunity and risk. A stock may report strong earnings and still fall. It may miss expectations and still rise. The market reaction often depends on expectations, positioning, guidance, sentiment and wider market conditions

EaGLES helps IX Forum members study these events with more structure

Rather than relying only on news headlines or opinion, users can review how a stock has behaved across previous earnings cycles and consider what this may teach them about volatility, timing and risk

How EaGLES Works

EaGLES provides a dashboard-style view of company earnings events, including:

Who EaGLES is for

EaGLES is designed for IX Wisdom Elite members who want to improve their understanding of:

Earnings events, Stock price reactions, Market expectations, Event-driven volatility

Risk management, Stock research, Options and trading education

Behavioural discipline around market-moving events

This tool may be particularly useful for investors who follow large-cap stocks, growth companies, technology stocks or stocks where earnings announcements can create meaningful price movement

EaGLES is provided for educational purposes only. It does not provide regulated financial advice, investment recommendations, trading signals or personal financial planning advice. Past market behaviour does not predict future performance, and investing involves risk.

IX Casino

IX Casino is a practical simulation that helps investors understand risk before they experience it in real market.

Its an interactive financial education game used within the IX Forum retreat experience to demonstrate how different trading strategies can affect investor outcomes

The game is designed to make risk visible. Participants are taken through a range of trading approaches and scenarios to see how decisions, position sizing, leverage, probability, emotions, and market behaviour can influence financial results

Like a casino, the experience helps show why the odds can work against investors when strategies are poorly understood, overused, or driven by emotion. In some scenarios, participants can see how quickly financial losses may develop when risk is not managed correctly

The IX Forum IX Casino is a practical trading strategy simulation designed to help investors understand risk before they experience it in the real market

Used as part of the IX Forum retreat, the game demonstrates how different trading strategies can create very different financial outcomes. Through interactive scenarios, participants can see how probability, leverage, emotional decision-making, and poor risk control can lead to significant losses

The purpose is not to encourage gambling or speculation. It is to help investors recognise how easily the market can behave like a casino when they do not understand the rules, the odds, or the risks they are taking

Experience the strategies. See the risks. Learn why the house often wins — and how better education can help investors make more informed decisions

IX Casino is only available for those that attend our Wellbeing and Wisdom retreat
