FXIFY, a proprietary trading firm, specializes in providing trading capital to skilled individuals. However, it is facing regulatory changes from MetaQuotes, the company behind the MetaTrader trading platform . MetaQuotes has directed FXIFY to cease offering MetaTrader services to traders located in the United States.

MetaTrader US Access Ends

As a result, FXIFY will migrate its US-based traders from MetaTrader to the DX platform. This shift marks the end of the remaining major combination of MetaTrader and US access in the industry.

The industry is also anticipating a clean-up of the so-called "Platform5" gimmick. This change could affect several firms employing similar strategies.

In addition to these regulatory shifts, FXIFY is preparing to launch FXIFY Futures. This new product aims to expand its offerings and attract more traders.

Earlier, On May 1, 2024, FXIFY marked its first anniversary, as reported by Finance Magnates. During its initial year, the firm reported payments exceeding $8,700,000 to funded traders, handled over $1.7 trillion in trading volume across challenge and funded accounts, and recorded more than 80,000 account signups.

Customer Management Challenge

According to the firm, it has recently joined the ranks of firms with a $3 million monthly payout and has secured a position in the top six of FX evaluation traffic. With its growth, payout volume, and increasing presence in the US market, FXIFY may need to address and refine some of its customer management practices to maintain its success and compliance .
