FX Solutions

Formed in 2001, FX Solutions is an e forex brokerage firm that is regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and is also a member of the National Futures Association (NFA). While it started off as a small US firm - it had only five employees at inception, today it has offices on four continents and employs over four hundred employees. The huge expansion of this brokerage was accelerated by its acquisition by City Index Group in 2008 which led to a substantial capital injection. In the respective jurisdictions that the brokerage has opened new offices (China, Singapore, Australia, Europe and the Middle East), it is regulated by the relevant oversight authorities.

The GTS Platform
FX Solutions has developed its own trading platform, the Global Trading System (GTS) which is available in several versions. GTS Pro is the downloadable version while a Web-based version with identical features, the GTS Web, is also available. For Mobile Devices, this broker provides GTS Mobile. Also available as a download is FX AccuCharts, a package that is integrated with GTS Pro and is packed with charts and other data to assist the trader. These charts enable the trader to quickly enter and stop trades by providing real-time market analysis.

The trader also benefits from email and audio alerts among other benefits. Charts available with this package can be customized to fit each trader's trading style and provide in excess of 150 indicators and oscillators.

Trading with GTS is made easy by the comprehensive video tutorial that FX Solutions offers on its site. The trader is taught how to place an entry order and how to close trades among other things. While trades are conducted exclusively in English, the tutorials and the rest of the information is also offered in Chinese, Spanish and Arabic.

FX Solutions allows new traders a 30-day free trading account which is loaded with $10,000 trading money. Traders are required to deposit a minimum of $250 to open real trading accounts and the company allows for a variety of accounts ranging from Individual to Joint, Business and Trust Accounts.
