Phillip Futures, most known for its Singapore-based futures trading offerings and recent entrance into the US futures trading market has confirmed its intention to setup offering forex trading options for US clients. Phillip Futures has filled out paperwork to setup as an FDM in addition to its current FCM status. Its intention is to have forex trading options available to US traders in the next 6-8 months.
Phillip Futures offers spot forex trading to its international clients currently via its proprietary forex trading platform, FX365 and via POEMS for professional traders. No word on whether Phillip Futures will offer the popular MetaTrader 4 platform with its up and coming US forex offering.
With the recent departure of Forex Solutions, GFT Forex, and other US forex brokers it’s refreshing to see another broker entering the US forex market.
