EZTD surprised many people when it announced its approval as a regulated broker in Japan. The firm is focusing on regulation and value for 2016.
Finance Magnates
In a room with football jerseys signed by members of teams that EZTD has signed sponsorship deal with, Finance Magnates sat with the binary option and forex broker’s CEO Shimon Citron for an open discussion about the company’s past, present and future. The goal of the meeting was to follow up with Citron after the EZTD surprised many with an announcement earlier in the month that the Financial Futures Association of Japan (FFAJ) had granted them a Securities Company license.
“Learned a lot about regulation”
Citron explained that the approval from the FFAJ was the culmination of a long year where the firm “learned a lot about regulation”. The Japanese license was acquired from GKFX who had previously operated in the country. According to Citron, the acquisition process was a year-long initiative that involved multiple layers of due diligence to complete the deal.
For EZTD, that operates several binary options and forex trading brands, but is best known for its EZTRADER binary options business, the process with the FFAJ was simultaneous with regulatory dealing in Cyprus and the US.
Citron expressed that “to bring a company that is doing binary options to the United States was one of our greatest challenges”. Citron explained that the challenge to overcome was fulfilling the filing requirements from the SEC and explaining the story of binary options in a country where there aren’t any regulated brokers offering the product to retail customers (the exceptions are NADEX and CantorExchange that offer the product through an exchange model).
In terms of its stock, Citron believes that “we have a very nice story”. He compared it to the best restaurant in the neighborhood, but one that no one knew about. Therefore, part of EZTD's job now is displaying the opportunity to US based investors. In this regard, Citron believes that binary options as a product is much easier for US investors to understand because there is no leverage. This contrasts with forex brokers that have a harder story to explain to shareholders.
Citron stated that they are talking to various brokers who like the story of EZTD being the first firm to bring to stock investors a binary options company that is regulated in other countries. Overall, Citron expressed that feedback has been positive from brokers, with them liking the growth in the industry. He also added that NADEX has begun a television campaign which raises overall awareness of binary options in the US which is beneficial for EZTD's stock.
123 million people
Explaining the decision to enter Japan, Citron simply answered “123 million people” and the opportunity that provides. As for its operations there, although Citron views his firm as 99% binary options, EZTD arrives in Japan with its forex offering first. According to Citron, the firm will begin to service live accounts in March with a goal of launching binary options several months later after it becomes approved by the FFAJ.
Despite the difficult process, Citron expressed that the company views it as very important for their future. As an example, he explained that Japanese regulators are no longer issuing new licenses, and the only way in now is to acquire a regulated broker there. As such, Citron mentioned that since becoming approved in Japan, his firm has been approached by several foreign firms about partnership opportunities.
Are regulators doing enough?
One of the questions posed to Citron, as well as discussed by many licensed brokers in the forex and binary options industry, is whether regulators are doing enough to prevent unregulated firms from doing business? Citron answered with an unequivocal “no”.
Citron explained that in the gambling industry, when the US banned online gambling in 2006, it was enforced by putting rules in place to limit payment firms from processing credit card transactions for gambling. As such, Citron believed that similar measures should be put in place by regulators if they want to display that they are stopping unregulated brokers from accepting customers from their countries.
Citron stated that his firm, along with many other large brokers in Cyprus, are paying fines with more on the way from other firms, but little is done against unregulated companies. Citron stated that “regulators have to help the existing companies that are paying so much to be regulated”. He also added that he didn’t believe it made sense that regulators are ignoring brokers that operate an unregulated brand alongside the licensed one.
$20 million in deposits and value in the future
As a public company, EZTD now becomes required to file annual financial reports. Its most recent filing showed that it recorded $19.5 million in revenues for the first nine months of 2015 which was a 36% increase from the same period in 2014. Overall for 2015 it expects to have recorded around $25 million in revenues when it reports later this year.
According to Citron, 2016 has begun even better with the firm having recorded a record in new accounts and deposits during January. While Citron wouldn’t disclose overall deposit figures for the record month, he did state that it was close to 20x the performance of two years ago, with Finance Magnates estimating the month at around $9-12 million in deposits.
Despite the deposit growth, Citron expressed that the company’s mission for 2016 is “expanding customer value”. He explained that this will be done through the launch of a new website in the next few months and a new mobile platform app slated for later this year. Also, along with its current sports sponsorships, EZTD is expected to sign others to increase branding of its company.
Another area where it believes that it can provide value to customers is through higher payoff rates. According to Citron, average payoffs on successful binary options are between 75% to 80% at EZTD with them expected to rise to 85% to 90%. Citron believed that the overall industry is headed to better rates for customers which will put pressure on many weaker brokers.
Correction: A previous version of this article reported that Finance Magnates estimated EZTD's record January deposits at around $20 million when in fact our calculations were $9 - $12 million. The error was due to confusing the figure with another data point from the company.

The trades that taught me the most aren't the ones that worked. They're the ones that didn't — or the ones I almost caught and didn't have the nerve to ride. In this session, I'll tell you about the Brexit miss, the SNB shocker that nearly handed me a 5400% return, the BoJ surprise that punched me in the gut, and a few wins along the way. Each story carries a lesson, but the lessons aren't the point. Everyone who trades long enough collects a portfolio of moments like these; what separates the people who stay in the game is what they do with them.

Most market post-mortems describe what happened to prices. Few describe what happened in the trading room while the position was open: the entry conviction, the moments that tested it, and the exit decision that closed the book.
This session brings one seasoned trader to the stage for an unfiltered account of the position that still defines how they think about markets.
Attendees will walk away with:
-A first-hand account of how a conviction trade is built, from thesis and entry through position management and exit
-Understanding of what turns a market observation into a live position, and what holds it when conditions shift
-Insight into how timing, execution quality, and market structure shaped the final result
-Perspective on what the trade revealed about edge, risk tolerance, and when to hold through a position moving against you
-Clarity on what separates a well-built trade from a well-timed one

As crypto and CFD trading continue to expand across Africa, access to advanced tools and market insights remains uneven. This session explores how AI and blockchain can bridge that gap by empowering informal traders and underserved communities to participate more effectively in digital financial markets. The discussion will focus on practical applications of technology to improve accessibility, education, and investment outcomes in both formal and informal sectors.
In this discussion, we will explore:
-The role of AI in democratizing access to trading tools, insights, and strategy development
-How crypto and blockchain can enable broader participation beyond traditional financial systems
-Addressing access barriers: infrastructure, education, and affordability in underserved communities
-Opportunities for brokers and platforms to tap into the informal trading economy
