MUNICH — FDC Brokerage GmbH, a subsidiary of Munich-based financial.com AG, today introduced its new online broker MyMarkets. The platform is aimed at the growing number of private investors who want to take their investment decisions into their own hands without forgoing high-quality financial information. It offers a completely modular and customizable analysis and trading system, including TradingView, which has previously only been available to professional investors. By opening an account with MyMarkets, in partnership with the established Baader Bank, investors can quickly and easily invest in a wide selection of stocks, ETFs, funds, and certificates. The business will launch on the major German trading venues gettex and Xetra starting at €2.49 per order. Through MyMarkets‘ premium partners, there are special conditions for trading Goldman Sachs and UniCredit certificates.
Always one step ahead of the market
From the outset, MyMarkets was designed to optimally support the needs of investors. The result: a groundbreaking trading experience. The modern, purely browser-based HTML5 interface offers the performance of a professional desktop application without requiring installation. The platform is completely modular and supports individual workflows.
“Today’s launch marks the beginning of the MyMarkets journey – a new generation of investing,” says Dr. Alexis Eisenhofer, founding partner and CEO of financial.com AG. “The official slogan ‘Enjoy Investing’ sums up the goal: investing should be fun – through better information, higher return potential, and low-threshold access.”
MyMarkets has an intuitive user interface that brings investors closer to market events than ever before. It responds to current price movements and offers a variety of completely new tools and analysis options to help investors understand current developments, interpret economic and corporate news, and make smart and informed decisions quickly and easily.
Investing and user interface: revolutionary
The free Basic package from MyMarkets offers customizable personal dashboards, the premium charting tool from TradingView with all technical indicators, trading directly from the chart, relevant real-time news from Reuters, and a library of dashboards, trading workflows, and stock screeners. Investors also have access to alerts and up to 300 filter options, an earnings calendar, real-time prices from gettex, and real-time prices from Xetra for an additional fee. In addition, there is a view with professional bubble charts to discover trends, an interactive view with winners and losers, and fantastic real-time heat maps.
A particular highlight is the integration of artificial intelligence: users can create personalized dashboards using an integrated AI chat feature. MyMarkets also offers an open banking interface that allows investors to integrate, analyze, and track their existing portfolios from other banks.
Premium service. Neobroker prices.
Integrated affiliate codes even allow users to earn money by promoting the platform. As part of the program, existing customers can recommend the platform to others and receive a share of the FDC fees for each order placed by a referred customer.
MyMarkets is owner-managed. Distribution is primarily via viral dissemination by satisfied users and affiliate partners. The latter receive their own look and feel in the design of their brand free of charge, as well as a share of sales.
In addition to its own brand, MyMarkets is also available as a white label solution – for example, for stock exchange associations, fund providers in the direct-to-consumer model, or media companies.
Industry leader in privacy and security
In Germany, deposits with MyMarkets are protected by statutory deposit insurance at the custodian bank Baader Bank, based in Unterschleißheim near Munich, which guarantees the security of investments. It offers protection of up to €100,000 per customer and bank.
MyMarkets is officially licensed by the German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) for securities trading under German law. MyMarkets’ transactions are regularly audited to ensure compliance with the highest standards of transparency and security.
Development has only just begun
Through the partnership with the London Stock Exchange, 190 international stock exchanges are already technically connected. Additional exchanges and products will be gradually activated at the request of users—a user backlog function allows for active participation. Users can submit requests and ideas for the further development of MyMarkets and publicly vote them up or down. A mobile companion app will also be available in the near future.
