The top five paid keywords are 'bitcoin', 'binary trading', 'stock market', 'CMC' and '+500'. People interested in the stock market are obviously a demographic that will be a main target for CFD brokers and anyone searching for binary trading is primed for binary options companies. CMC and Plus500 are leading brokers in the UK and therefore competitors will try to reach their clientele and draw them to switch.
Bitcoin is therefore not just the only asset on the list, beating out gold and oil that are always very popular terms, but the only one not directly associated with traditional Online Trading. This shows that retail brokers understand that cryptocurrency traders are the new generation of traders and not a passing fad.
In comparison, the top five popular organic keywords that are also now revealed are just the same term in different European languages: 'währungsrechner', 'currency converter', 'конвертер валют', 'cambio valuta', and 'conversor de moeda'.
Working for you
This is the latest publication from the FM Traffic Indices – a new cross-industry benchmark, created with a methodological formula that matriculates data from three main sources: brokers’ trading volumes, brokers’ traffic data and insider information.
In today’s business world, big-data analysis and access to objective information sources are crucial to success. Unfortunately, until now it has been very hard and costly, if possible at all, to find any reliable benchmarks for operations in social, FX and CFDs trading.
For this reason, the Finance Magnates Intelligence Department has launched a new project, creating a set of monthly indices encompassing various aspects of the online trading industry. These indices will provide you with unique data points gathered by our analysts that will serve as a valuable knowledge base for your decision making.

Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav sits down with Finance Magnates to discuss the core technology challenges facing CFD brokers and proprietary trading firms today.
Jadhav explains how the industry's reliance on batch processing and fragmented systems (where CRMs, risk tools, and trading platforms operate with separate 'sources of truth') leads to delayed data and inconsistent operational decisions. He argues that real-time event processing is essential for managing fast-moving trading activity and risk.
Learn how Altima's unified, event-driven architecture, connecting Altima CRM, Altima Prop, IB systems, and risk management through a single backbone, is designed to provide synchronous data and better operational coordination for modern brokerage and prop firm stacks.
Key Topics:
- Broker and Prop Firm Data Challenges
- The problem of delayed data processing (batch processing vs. real-time events)
- Fragmented systems and conflicting data sources
- Altima's unified, event-driven solution architecture
- The concept of a "risk-aware CRM"
- Built-in risk management in Altima Prop

How Prop Firms Scale Without Breaking Tech Stacks | Axcera Executive Interview
How Prop Firms Scale Without Breaking Tech Stacks | Axcera Executive Interview
In this Finance Magnates executive interview, Dora Christofi, Head of Marketing at Finance Magnates, speaks with Herman Shaho, Co-Founder & CPO at Axcera, about what prop firms often get wrong when scaling, and how the right CRM infrastructure can support growth.
Shaho explains why many prop firms break once they grow beyond the early stage, after stacking too many disconnected tools. He also shares how Axcera approaches customisation, with technology that fits the firm’s needs rather than forcing the firm to fit a template.
“The firm doesn’t need to adapt to the software, our software adapts to the firm,” Shaho says.
The interview follows Axcera’s recognition at the Finance Magnates Awards 2025, where the company won Best Prop Trading Technology Provider.
