FXTM has officially launched FXTM Edge, a new mobile-first platform designed to make forex and commodity trading more accessible to Nigerians.
The new platform was launched at a media roundtable held in Lagos on Tuesday.
FXTM is an online trading platform involved in online investing and is committed to making financial markets accessible to traders around the world. Via its platforms, FXTM provides tailored education and empowers traders with innovative tools and trusted support.
Unlike traditional platforms such as MetaTrader, FXTM Edge was built specifically for Nigerian traders who have long faced barriers such as high minimum deposits, complex tools, and limited access to education.
Speaking at the grand unveiling of the new product, FXTM Edge, Specialist, Education & Media at FXTM, Adaeze Uzochukwu, explained that FXTM Edge was developed to respond to the challenges many Nigerians face in trading, including high entry costs, technical complexity, and a lack of structured learning support.
Adaeze emphasized that with a minimum deposit requirement of just $50, compared to the $200 previously needed, FXTM Edge lowers the entry threshold for Nigerians looking to trade. The platform also allows micro-lot trading, giving users the flexibility to start small and manage risks effectively. For beginners, it offers a user-friendly interface, built-in educational resources, and trade inspiration to help build confidence step by step. For experienced traders, the platform delivers competitive spreads starting from 1.2, a reward system that covers both lots and units traded, and the option to test strategies at a lower cost.
She stated that the platform was designed with Nigerians in mind, particularly given the reliance on smartphones for financial activities. By prioritising a mobile-first experience, FXTM Edge provides speed, convenience, and flexibility to traders who want to operate seamlessly while on the move.
“FXTM Edge is more than just a trading account; it is a gateway for Nigerians to enter the financial markets with confidence. Whether you’re a first-time trader or already experienced, Edge gives you the flexibility to start small, learn, and grow at your own pace,” she added.
