Welcome to GFT Markets™.

Also known as foreign exchange or currency trading, forex is quickly growing in popularity around the world. Forex traders hope to generate a profit by speculating on the value of one currency compared to another. Even if you’re new to forex, you may already have traded currencies before. When you exchange currencies while traveling in a foreign country, you are technically selling your currency and buying that of the country you are visiting.

Short for contracts for difference, CFDs allow you to speculate on the up or down movement of numerous financial markets. Unlike traditional trading, you don’t acquire the underlying instrument nor any delivery obligations and can use leverage to trade large positions with a small amount of capital. CFDs allow you to buy and sell derivatives within markets such as Equities, Indices, Commodities, Bonds, Interest Rates, and FX.

Spread betting allows you to speculate on the up or down movement of numerous financial markets. Unlike traditional trading, you don’t actually own anything and can use leverage* to trade large positions with a small amount of capital.

Binaries are the latest addition to our product portfolio. The platform was developed from the ground up and places real emphasis on user experience and visual trading. The revolutionary deal-wheel is an example of this—a countdown tool that shows the seconds before expiry of markets. We’re offering short term trades at five-minutes, twenty-minute and hourly intervals, as well as mid-session and daily markets. Across all categories available that adds up to over 6,000 binary trades every day. Inherent to binaries is the ability to know your maximum profit and loss up front – something that should attract traders both new and experienced.
