FX brokers - going pro
ATFX is the latest in a series of brokers that have developed an offering tailored to professional clients.
In June of this year, for example, ValuTrades announced the launch of an ‘institutional desk.’ Other brokers, such as CMC Markets and InterTrader, have also launched platforms geared towards more sophisticated traders.
Professional traders are appealing to brokers as, assuming they meet a particular set of standards, they don’t have to adhere to the leverage restrictions placed on most retail clients.
