Forex.com, the retail trading division of GAIN Capital, has announced recently the launch of a new platform for CFD trading, appropriately named TRADE. The platform was designed to provide instant execution with low fixed spreads for hundreds of tradable assets, including Forex pairs, commodities and indices. With this platform, traders should have a familiar certainty about the price before executing every trade.
Included in the platform is a range of trading tools including charting tools for beginners and a strategy builder which offers traders the ability to drag and drop their trading strategy without any knowledge of HTML. Though the platform can serve advanced and novice traders alike, its user-friendliness will certainly make new traders feel comfortable as they get settled down in the trading arena.
The company offers leverage up to 400:1 for traders in most countries, and leverage up to 50:1 in the United States, where the company is regulated by the NFA and must bend to its demands. Forex.com is also newly regulated in Canada.
Forex.com previously offered a proprietary platform called the FOREXTrader PRO platform which is suited for advanced traders, and the ever-popular MT4 platform, which provides traders with a familiar trading experience. Though both of these platforms already passed muster by our own testers and by thousands of traders worldwide, it can never hurt to offer another option for those looking for a slightly different trading experience. The efforts required by Forex.com to build such a platform should not go unnoticed, and should serve as a sign that this brokerage is willing to do whatever it takes to remain a vital competitor in the Forex world – one that will continually strive to offer its traders the most reliable technology and the smoothest possible Forex trading experience.
