Forex.com and its parent company, Gain Capital, have long been recognized as a leading US Forex broker, registered with the CFTC and providing top quality service to thousands of traders. The brokerage has also long served traders worldwide, with a large staff of Arabic team members as well as Russian speakers that deal with trader's needs and provide value market insights in different geographic regions. In the quiet summer months, however, this Forex giant announced that it will now be serving Canadian traders as well, an announcement which brought a breath of fresh air to an otherwise stagnant industry.
The new branch of Forex.com is regulated by the Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC), to provide Canadian traders with the security of funds that other Forex.com traders have long enjoyed. In addition, Canadian traders will be able to take advantage of the company's exception customer support, flexible MT4 platform and educational resources. Canadian traders will be able to fund their trading accounts in Canadian dollars or in US dollars, and will be able to trade a wide variety of instruments including 50 currency pairs, commodities and metals.
