MSN and Saxo Bank discontinue MSN Trader
- MSN Trader was an ambitious and an out of the box project co-launched by Microsoft and Saxo Bank exactly a year ago. Basically Microsoft became Saxo Bank's White Label and was offering forex, futures and CFDs. This is one of those projects that have small chances to become hugely successful and bigger chances of failing. Unfortunately for MSN and Saxo it was the latter.

Currensee makes a foray into institutional forex market, partners with HedgeCo
- Currensee which until now was a hub for retail forex traders looking to follow credible traders has now expanded into the institutional forex market. The move makes sense for Currensee for two reasons: first is that it still has not gained much traction in the retail forex market, the other is that Currensee has institutional investors which were probably instrumental in making this deal with HedgeCo happening. Institutional volumes are typically much higher than the retail ones and hence may be much more profitable for Currensee.

More Tradestation Interbank FX acquisition details
- The announcement of the Tradestation - IBFX acquisition deal obviously generated much interest and discussions in the industry. Main question was whether indeed the price was a mere $17 million. Several of my sources mentioned that Gain may have eventually withdrawn from the deal I announced 2 months ago because there is a pending NFA fine against Interbank FX. Apparently IBFX may be soon fined for some execution flaws - however this has not been announced by the NFA yet so we have no way of knowing whether this will eventually happen.

TradeStation acquires Interbank FX (IBFX)
- Couple of months ago I published that Gain Capital is about to acquire Interbank FX after several rounds of discussions with potential investors. In that round Gain remained as the last bidder. This deal however failed at the last moment for reasons not known to me - but not hard to guess that it was a disagreement over final price. IBFX didn't give up on trying to be sold and today finally succeeded - TradeStation (which itself was acquired by Japense Monex Group few months back) just announced that it reached an acquisition agreement with IBFX.

ACM Gold expands to Nigeria with a new local office and a trading floor
- ACM Gold just announced that it opened an office in Nigeria which signals a very interesting move for this unique broker - it operates mostly through local offices and branches rather than online marketing. By doing this ACM is able to generate better market position in those jurisdictions where online marketing is not as prevalent as in US or Europe. Nigerian clients specifically require more personal touch and attention - hence ACM opened not only an office for support but also a trading floor. Trading floor model allows anyone to come and trade whether they have equipment and experience or not, thus generating new forex clients instead of competing for existing ones.
