FXTRADING.com CEO Adam Phillips revealed at the Finance Magnates Singapore Summit that the broker has developed a proprietary zero-latency social trading platform, eliminating execution delays that plague third-party copy trading solutions. The Australia and Vanuatu-regulated multi-asset broker spent a decade building its entire technology stack in-house rather than relying on external providers.
Phillips emphasized that traditional copy trading systems introduce significant delays between strategy provider execution and follower trades, sometimes measuring in seconds—a critical gap during volatile markets. The broker’s integrated approach proved particularly valuable during recent commodity swings in gold and oil driven by geopolitical events. By owning infrastructure end-to-end, FXTRADING.com maintains direct control over execution quality and platform stability during high-volatility periods.
The development addresses a persistent pain point for retail traders using social trading features, where slippage between master and follower accounts can materially impact performance, especially for short-term strategies requiring immediate execution.
