GKFX launches proprietary FX and CFD trading platform

GKFX Trader is a proprietary trading platform that shows the broker’s commitment to its customers to continue innovating and customizing based on their needs.

GKFX has launched its new online trading platform, GKFX Trader, as the first step on a transformation journey to become a global investment platform to serve all clients’ investment needs.

GKFX Trader facilitates the trading of all products being offered by GKFX today, including FX and CFDs for indices, stocks, commodities, and cryptocurrency. The broker has plans to further expand its product range soon, to include more asset classes.

GKFX, Global Kapital Group’s (“GKG”) brokerage arm, offering financial services in the EU, deeply analyzed its customer base and general industry trends while developing the new trading platform in order to make sure the platform serves a diverse base with different needs.

GKFX Trader shows broker’s commitment to users

GKFX Trader features one-click trading, placing orders on the chart, advanced charting and technical analysis tools, advanced order types, market depth and customizable workspaces.

The end goal was to accommodate active traders who need to have access to a fully customizable and rich trading experience, all through the Trader screen and, at the same time, to cater to users who look for a simpler and quicker trading experience, with a customizable watchlist and GKFX Trader’s Quick Trade functionality.

KIG BV, Global Kapital Group’s investment platform, is a Dutch holding company which specializes in providing investors with easy access to a large spectrum of financial and investment products from across the globe. These products include listed equities, currencies, commodities from metals to energy, and CFDs for stocks, indices, and over-the-counter derivatives.

In late 2021, Finance Feeds interviewed Umit Kaf, regional director of South-East Asia at KIG, Global Kapital Group’s investment platform.

Last year, KIG acquired ASIC-licensed FairMarkets in Australia in February, entered the US with FINRA-licensed GK Trade New York, obtained a licence from the FSC in Mauritius, and acquired Işık Menkul, a CMB-regulated multi-asset broker in Turkey, stepping into the MENA region and into South Africa by acquiring Maru Asset Managers, licensed by the FSCA.

Umit Kaf explained the firm is moving beyond FX as “the investment market itself goes far beyond FX and as a result the markets are now much more open for everyone, not just for FX traders.”

“When it comes to generating a regular cash flow, whether it be for your retirement, keeping your savings in a safe place, exploiting flash news in a volatility-driven world, or hedging your business; you need more than just FX products. KIG BV is a group of Financial Services companies with a human touch. Our entire business model is built around our clients and our services are perfected to satisfy their everchanging needs”, he continued.

“We understand exactly what an investor needs. Whilst investors are interested in stocks, they may prefer baskets of stocks or ETFs if they are not proficient in investing. Investors need futures or options to hedge their businesses and operational risks; while they can buy products, they should also be able to sell just as easily. Investments have no limits; opportunities are endless, and the ability to diversify your portfolio is a must and that’s why it’s better for investors to have all their products in a single investment house.”

This might signal an upcoming adoption of a multi-asset class offering by GKFX in the near future.
