FXPrimus Rolls Out 24/7 Synthetic Markets

Global broker FXPrimus has announced the launch of Synthetic Indices, which are engineered financial instruments that operate continuously and are designed to simulate real market conditions without being influenced by actual economic or political events. According to the firm, these new instruments aim to give traders uninterrupted price movement and consistent trading conditions.

Unlike traditional markets, which are often affected by earnings reports, central bank decisions, or global instability, Synthetic Indices are based on internal algorithms. These instruments use mathematical models to replicate price behaviours and are available around the clock on the MT5 platform. FXPrimus stated that the product was created for traders who prefer to focus purely on strategy without the unpredictability of external news.

This move is part of a broader set of changes at FXPrimus, which the firm says reflect a shift towards innovation and trader-focused solutions. The release of Synthetic Indices follows the launch of other updates, including a new trading community platform, a redesigned website, and improvements to the client dashboard.

The Synthetic Indices are grouped into four series, each tailored to different trading styles. The Smash & Boost range features indices that move sharply up or down at regular tick intervals, catering to momentum and breakout traders. The Dynamic series offers four levels of intensity and mimics real-time volatility, allowing users to test and fine-tune strategies in a repeatable environment.

The Pace series introduces fixed, step-based price changes and is designed for traders who rely on a consistent rhythm, particularly useful for scalping and algorithmic setups. Finally, the Bounce indices simulate sudden bursts of movement, encouraging fast decisions and reactive trading under pressure.

By removing real-world influences, FXPrimus claims these products provide traders with full visibility and predictable patterns. However, this raises questions about the realism of these instruments and whether they offer genuine trading value or simply a new form of speculative exposure.

FXPrimus has described this release as part of a long-term transformation. In addition to Synthetic Indices, recent updates include a private social trading network called PrimoConnect, designed to support idea sharing and collaboration. The company has also introduced a simplified client area for faster onboarding and will soon offer leverage of up to 1:2000.

Despite these changes, some may view the push toward synthetic products with caution. While the technology allows for constant price action, the detachment from real market forces may not suit all traders, especially those who rely on economic trends or fundamental analysis.
