“Authorisation by the FSA represents important recognition of our commitment to the strict regulatory and financial standards that more and more clients come to expect from brokers,” said Alexey Stepanov, CEO of FXOpen Ltd. “We look forward to launching our award winning services in the coming months allowing new customers in the UK and Continental Europe to benefit from FXOpen’s worldwide experience and leading product offering combined with the transparency of a regulated broker”.
Once operations start in the near future, FXOpen Ltd will provide a true ECN/STP environment for its clients offering them a professional level trading environment and market leading levels of service and execution.
FXOpen was the first to bring pure ECN trading over MT4 platform and lately hit over $100 billion in monthly trading volume over its ECN platform alone. The company has certainly come a long way since being removed from Mauritius for no known reason and then settling with the CFTC for accepting US customers. FXOpen was recently granted an ASIC license and now with receiving the FSA one as well it is finally able to compete on same field with other, more established players.

please read carefully, at least twice, before replying the next time
global fxopen offers ECN for 3 years now, fxopen ltd (uk one) will gradually phase it in (i assume regulatory approval will take time)
re numbers – we are known for being fooled by brokers for years now, in fact this whole website is based on what brokers tell us – not the facts, so this is just another proof

I dont know if you meant that in an ironic way. But there is no other way than asking the broker obviously, since noone else really knows. I would also assume numbers stated in the quaterly reports of listed companies such as fxcm would be relatively firm (since lying to investors is a criminal offence) – numbers from privately held brokers dropped in some interview to a much lesser extent. Obviously there is an incentive for exaggeration.

we don’t ask brokers, with the exception of handful of brokers we do trust, we verify the information through liquidity providers, partners, competitors, employees and former employees. this is why our numbers have been quite accurate in the past.

strictly for US. you mean whole as their worldwide numbers? if so, that’s impossible, although gain’s and fxcm’s number are public so you can make the extrapolation

Good points. Informed Traders need to rethink all that idea IMHO.
I think virtual currency per-se doesn’t change its value, however this “virtual currency” which is a managed strategy certainly does and is “already 5% up against the dollar” and therefore is certainly illegal. The fact is that Simit may not be registered as a CTA is also alarming and the solicitation as it is done right now is surely something the NFA will frown upon.
