Juno Markets Launches Crypto CFDs, Selects GCEX for Liquidity

Juno Markets, a retail broker providing forex and CFDs trading services, announced on Monday the addition of cryptocurrency CFDs, thus expanding the range of its suite of offerings.

Per the press release shared with Finance Magnates, the brokerage will initially offer trading services with three crypto-fiat pairs: BTCUSD, ETHUSD and XRPUSD. However, it has plans to further expand crypto offerings in the future.

“We’ve been wanting to introduce crypto trading to our clients for quite some time but had difficulties finding credible institutional counterparties that met our requirements,” said Arthur Le, Juno Markets CEO. “While we know we are not the first, we believe that the unique value we bring is the credibility of the partners we work with.”

Juno Markets added the cryptocurrency CFDs when demand for such instruments is high among both retail and professional traders. Recently, the crypto market corrected heavily from its peak achieved earlier this year, but there are possibilities of major upward drag in the near future.

The broker partnered with United Kingdom-regulated GC Exchange (GCEX) for offering the crypto trading pairs.
