Fortex and GDMFX Forge Global Partnership to Transform Forex Web Trading Standards

Fortex, Inc., one of the leading electronic communication network (ECN) trading platforms and Global Derivative Capital Markets NZ Limited (GDMFX), a New Zealand registered international broker-dealer, announced today that they have formed a technology partnership that will make Fortex's MT4 Web Trader solution available to GDMFX's worldwide clientele.

Increased global demand for web and mobile trading solutions served as the catalyst behind this partnership signaling a new trend in FX trading standards. As a leading global brokerage, GDMFX offers a variety of trading solutions, asset classes and educational services to its clients.  They need to stay ahead of the curve while adjusting their product offerings to respond to client's needs. Adding Fortex Web Trader to its arsenal, GDMFX makes further headway into one of the market's key growth opportunities and are looking to secure increased trading volume by making trading on the go available to its global customer base. GDMFX's customized Web Trader works on the Mac OSX, Linux, Windows, iOS, and Android platforms on a plethora of devices, including smartphones and tablets.

Unlike the majority of the web platforms that operate using a response-and-request model, Fortex MT4 Web Trader is an HTML5-based application that provides 100% streaming connectivity. The platform has a responsive design that automatically adapts to the device a trader is utilizing, offering real time access to quotes, news, account history and journals. The Fortex Web Platform supports multiple asset classes (i.e. FX, precious metals, CFDs) and offers unique features like full market depth, single login and plug-and play a hassle-free SaaS deployment model. The major differentiators between this platform and its rivals are its stability and robustness.–Its trade synchronization is both seamless and instantaneous eliminating major broker pain points like "lost trades" and the resulting client complaint.

"Mobile devices, in combination with cloud phenomena, have been transforming the FX industry in many ways. They are allowing traders to have access to their critical financial data anywhere anytime," said Natallia Hunik, Global Head of Sales at Fortex. "The alliance with GDMFX will strengthen our momentum in bringing innovative modern Web trading technology to the FX trading community."
