The latest Binary Options Platform launch comes in the form of a demo account offering by Swiss-based bank Dukascopy, with prices powered from its SWFX centralised-decentralised marketplace, Live accounts to follow.
The Swiss-based Forex bank Dukascopy has today announced the launch of a binary options platform offering, initially providing demo account access for clients to trade the increasingly sought binary style contracts.
The firm is the latest to give in to the allure of offering binary options trading, as the expectations to meet the demand of online speculators in search of binary options appears to be optimistic, as seen by the number of firms that have recently launched such offerings.

The unique features of binary options offered by Dukascopy were said to include fixed uniform payouts of up to 90% and an FX price feed directly from Dukascopy, and using the bank's Swiss Foreign Exchange Market Place -SWFX technology, as described in its official press release.
Initially, the types of binary options included were Up/Down type options and FX instruments, with live account capability to follow along with a demo trading contest that is under development.
Alain Broyon, CEO of Dukascopy Bank
Forex Magnates' reporters spoke today with Alain Broyon, CEO of Dukascopy Bank, who said, “The Binary Options have been launched following our clients’ demands. We hope they will enjoy the new trading facilities as trading with Dukascopy Bank will become more interesting. Furthermore, being known as a broker providing extremely low spreads (the average of 0,19 pip spread on EURUSD was touched on the 12th of February), we will apply the same competitive conditions to binaries.”
According to Forex Magnates' sources, the platform appears to be a fully in-house developed solution, including the logic used to define payout and other parameters of the contracts functions.
Fully Built In-House, FX and CFDs to Be Added to New Infrastructure Later
In addition, Forex Magnates has confirmed with people familiar with the development that the release date for live account trading on the platform has not yet been announced, as the binary options are the first of the set of asset classes or instruments that started trading (in demo mode so far) in Dukascopy's new technical infrastructure which will subsequently host Forex and CFD services as well.
Forex Magnates' research team took a brief look at the demo account offered by Dukascopy for binary options trading, as can be seen in the below screenshot, and which appears to the version 0.05 of the platform:

Executive Interview | Dor Eligula | Co-Founder & Chief Business Officer, BridgeWise | FMLS:25
In this session, Jonathan Fine form Ultimate Group speaks with Dor Eligula from Bridgewise, a fast-growing AI-powered research and analytics firm supporting brokers and exchanges worldwide.
We start with Dor’s reaction to the Summit and then move to broker growth and the quick wins brokers often overlook. Dor shares where he sees “blue ocean” growth across Asian markets and how local client behaviour shapes demand.
We also discuss the rollout of AI across investment research. Dor gives real examples of how automation and human judgment meet at Bridgewise — including moments when analysts corrected AI output, and times when AI prevented an error.
We close with a practical question: how retail investors can actually use AI without falling into common traps.

Brendan Callan joined us fresh off the Summit’s most anticipated debate: “Is Prop Trading Good for the Industry?” Brendan argued against the motion — and the audience voted him the winner.
In this interview, Brendan explains the reasoning behind his position. He walks through the message he believes many firms avoid: that the current prop trading model is too dependent on fees, too loose on risk, and too confusing for retail audiences.
We discuss why he thinks the model grew fast, why it may run into walls, and what he believes is needed for a cleaner, more responsible version of prop trading.
This is Brendan at his frankest — sharp, grounded, and very clear about what changes are overdue.
