The popular app has evolved into a vital retail trader platform, offering real-time signals.
A recent earthquake in prop trading showcased Discord's criticality for conveying key updates like halts and migrations.
Long gone
are the days when Discord was dismissed as yet another communication tool for your
kid bonding over Minecraft servers. The platform has rapidly emerged as the
hottest virtual hangout for an entirely different crowd, throngs of retail FX/CFDs
and crypto traders gathering to exchange ideas, share signals, and ride market
waves together.
Discord
offers them a virtual trading floor minus the shouting and chaos. Here, they can
chat over desktop or mobile in real-time as markets move. In many
ways, it is unlocking retail trading's true potential to become social. And, this digital gathering force can no longer be ignored as new converts keep
pouring in.
What Is Discord?
Discord is
a free voice, video, and text communication platform that allows users to
interact in real-time. Initially created for gamers to chat while playing,
Discord has evolved far beyond gaming communities.
The service
revolves around the concept of servers. A Discord server is essentially a
virtual space where groups of friends, communities, businesses, and more can
come together. Users can join existing public Discord servers through invite
links or create their own private servers.
Once inside
a server, members can access various text and voice channels for
communicating and collaborating. Text channels allow seamless chat messaging
between server members. Voice channels facilitate conversations, meetings, or
casual hangouts using voice chat features.
Discord Co-Founder and CEO Jason Citron
Servers
also support other forms of communication like video calls and screen sharing.
This makes Discord an ideal platform for gaming and friend groups, remote work teams, online classes, clubs, and more.
An
easy-to-use permissions system enables server admins to control access and
functionality within their servers. Individual channels can be tweaked to
only allow certain members. This allows large servers to create intricate
platforms comprising multiple topic-specific chat rooms.
Safety is a critical part of our work at Discord.
Our latest Transparency Report covers our work from October through December 2023. These reports provide information and resources about our work to make Discord the best place to hang out with friends.
According
to BankMyCell, in 2016, the platform had 25 million users; in 2020, this number
grew to 300 million, and currently, it stands at 614 million.
The Explosive Growth of
Forex and Prop Trading Servers on Discord
According
to Yohay Elam, the Product Manager at FxStreet, there are four main reasons why retail traders opt for Discord.
“First,
many of them have been used to seeking advice – and commiseration – in online
forums, and Discord provides an upgraded experience thanks to its ease of use,”
Elam commented. “Secondly, there is a significant overlap between the gaming
world, where Discord originated, and the trader world. The users share many of
the characteristics. Retail traders became familiar with Discord via gaming,
and using the platform in their community was a smooth transition.”
Third, the
cryptosphere embraced Discord before it became dominant as a community
platform. While crypto and FX/CFD traders have a limited overlap, the use of
Discord propagated. And, finally fourth, FXStreet’s data shows that “most
traders have a day job at an office. The growing use of Slack – which has a
remarkably similar interface to Discord – is another factor making the
transition easier.”
Discord,
similar to Telegram, has emerged as a hub for services offering trading
signals. According to the website Discord.me, there are over a thousand servers
tagged as "Forex" and more than 1,500 tagged as "Crypto." An
example of such a group is Trader Beast, which has over 10,000 registered users,
with hundreds online at any given time of the day, utilizing automatically
generated signals by trading bots.

It turns
out that Discord is highly popular among retail proprietary trading
and trader funding firms, where the numbers are even larger. For
instance, MyFundedFX, which recently faced regulatory issues, gathers over
120,000 people on Discord. The recent earthquake in the industry, which began in February, showed how important Discord is in prop trading. Many pieces of information about suspending operations or planned server migrations appeared first and foremost on the Discord servers of various companies, or appeared there exclusively. This demonstrates that today, without Discord, a trader may not have access to all the necessary information.
The experts we spoke with stated that Discord possesses several important advantages, allowing for collaborative learning, rapid information sharing, and vetting of ideas. We have compiled the most important ones for retail trading in the form of an infographic.
The
anonymity and private channels of Discord enable trading schemes on the
shady side. The platform has become notorious for pump-and-dump schemes where
influencers build hype around low-volume assets before dumping their positions
once prices spike.
U.S. SEC SAYS IT CHARGES EIGHT SOCIAL MEDIA INFLUENCERS IN $100 MILLION STOCK MANIPULATION SCHEME PROMOTED ON DISCORD AND TWITTER
Scammers directly target naive traders by sharing phony screenshots of their
account balances to peddle get-rich-quick services. Without oversight, Discord
allows potential manipulation along with the spread of misinformation not
grounded in facts.
Even
well-intentioned trading advice on Discord can steer newcomers down wayward
paths if the mentor needs more proper expertise. Always verifying credibility is key
before following signals blindly.
“What we
and our users find lacking is Discord’s broadcasting capabilities,” said the
Project Manager of FxStreet, commenting on Discord’s cons. “While holding a
webinar or a live market coverage works well for most users, occasional sound
and video lapses when using the desktop browser version of Discord caused us to
pause a full migration of events to the platform.”
What Discord Means for You
and Your Company
For
brokerages and fintech firms, the rise of Discord trading channels marks a
vital shift in social media preference among retail investors. Maintaining an
active presence on Discord has become crucial for customer engagement, brand
building, and understanding client needs.
While
signal groups and trading bots are popular on Discord, trading platforms and
brokers themselves rarely have their own servers there. But, maybe it is time to
change that?
“Brokers
are generally more conservative in their choice of communication channels, but
as they have eventually embraced advertising on mobile phones, they are
gradually warming up to Discord. Brokers go where traders are, especially when
it comes to acquiring customers,” said Elam.
Firms can
directly address customer feedback and complaints on their own Discord servers.
And, monitoring wider trading conversations grants valuable perspective on
investor sentiment, pain points, and which offerings excite users most.
While
Discord currently lacks oversight around market manipulation and
misinformation, its meteoric rise among traders is inevitable. As more retail
investors establish footholds on the platform, retail trading firms should
follow.
I almost forgot the most important thing that instantly will make you install this booming app. On Discord, you can raise your virtual pets!

Damian's adventure with financial markets began at the Cracow University of Economics, where he obtained his MA in finance and accounting. Starting from the retail trader perspective, he collaborated with brokerage houses and financial portals in Poland as an independent editor and content manager. His adventure with Finance Magnates began in 2016, where he is working as a business intelligence analyst.
In this conversation, we sit down with Drew Niv, CSO at ATFX Connect and one of the most influential figures in modern FX.
We speak about market structure, the institutional view on liquidity, and the sharp rise of prop trading, a sector Drew has been commenting on in recent months. Drew explains why he once dismissed prop trading, why his view changed, and what he now thinks the model means for brokers, clients and risk managers.
We explore subscription-fee dependency, the high reneging rate, and the long-term challenge: how brokers can build a more stable and honest version of the model. Drew also talks about the traffic advantage standalone prop firms have built and why brokers may still win in the long run if they take the right approach.

In this conversation, we speak with Aydin Bonabi, CEO and co-founder of Surveill, a firm focused on fraud detection and AI-driven compliance tools for financial institutions.
We start with Aydin’s view of the Summit and the challenges brokers face as fraud tactics grow more complex. He explains how firms can stay ahead through real-time signals, data patterns, and early-stage detection.
We also talk about AI training and why compliance teams often struggle to keep models accurate, fair, and aligned with regulatory expectations. Aydin breaks down what “good” AI training looks like inside a financial environment, including the importance of clean data, domain expertise, and human oversight.
He closes with a clear message: fraud is scaling, and so must the tools that stop it.

Interview with Jas Shah
Builder | Adviser | Fintech Writer | Product Strategist
In this episode, Jonathan Fine sat down with Jas Shah, one of the most thoughtful voices in global fintech. Known for his work across advisory, product, stablecoins, and his widely read writing, Jas brings a rare combination of industry insight and plain-spoken clarity.
We talk about his first impression of the Summit, the projects that keep him busy today, and how they connect to the stablecoin panel he joined. Jas shares his view on the link between fintech, wealthtech and retail brokers, especially as firms like Revolut, eToro and Trading212 blur long-standing lines in the market.
We also explore what stablecoin adoption might look like for retail investment platforms, including a few product and UX angles that are not obvious at first glance.
To close, Jas explains how he thinks about writing, and how he approaches “shipping” pieces that spark debate across the industry.
