Provider of online foreign exchange trading, CFD trading and related services FXCM Group, LLC has launched a new platform and web application which will enable expansion in the coming months.

In partnership with Adaptive Financial Consulting, a provider of bespoke trading technology solutions, FXCM has released a new web-based platform, designed to support a larger number of instruments and a progressive web application (PWA) which gives greater access globally to FXCM’s products and services.

Built using React technologies, FXCM’s new web-based platform replaces the firm’s previous web platform. It is still in an early beta phase and FXCM is currently working on an array of tools and features which it plans to release in the coming months.

FXCM’s new PWA provides an app-like experience to users, while still being accessible through a web browser, removing the need to download and install an app. Instead, the PWA can simply be added to the user’s home screen. It also improves access, particularly for clients in jurisdictions that do not have access to FXCM’s native trading applications in their local stores, and it works offline and in-low quality network conditions.

The two new platforms add to FXCM’s existing proprietary trading platforms, Trading Station Desktop, its flagship trading platform and Trading Station Mobile, its native mobile application for IOS and Android. In addition to proprietary platforms, FXCM also provides an extensive MT4 offering and API trading opportunities via a proprietary API, FIX and Java.
