Taking the financial market by surprise, GMI, one of the leading global forex and CFD brokers, announced its intention to close its global operations from December 31, 2025. Since the official shutdown announcement, traders have been concerned about the status of fund deposits and withdrawals. They have understandably been searching for answers to these questions amid this announcement made by the group. Read on as we share with you key details emerging from the development.
The GMI management has allowed its existing traders to deposit until Dec 24, 2025, only. However, it has declined to accept new client and agent registrations. As per the announcement, customers can only close their market positions. On the other hand, the brokerage house has allowed traders to apply for fund withdrawals until January 31, 2026. Sharing a screenshot containing an official shutdown announcement from GMI.

Founded in 2009, the brokerage house has been contemplating an exit amid an old and ailing boss. Over the past two years, the brokerage management tried to recruit a new boss to spearhead GMI. Many wealthy financial groups and major investment houses evinced interest in acquiring the group at attractive prices. However, the brokerage house could not find a suitable, honest and qualified boss to steer the company ahead despite screening many applicants during the review period. Acknowledging that it was an extremely difficult decision, the brokerage management decided to close the company and its clientele base to an operator, but not without potential future risks and doubts. As shown above, the brokerage management thanked everyone for their support and contributions over the last 16 years.

Forex traders often have to come to terms with these two popular concepts - Support and Resistance. A support level refers to the point where buyers have historically come together to prevent the price from sliding further. On the other hand, the point of resistance is where sellers have historically limited upward movement. These two levels form the foundation of many trading strategies employed by traders to spot entry, exit and stop-loss points. However, many beginners begin to think that these price levels are unbreakable. Such assumptions can go horribly wrong during high-impact economic news releases such as inflation reports, employment data, monetary policy announcements by the central bank or any other major news events. These events can trigger price movements so much that even the strongest support and resistance levels can crack within seconds.

Switched from one trading strategy to another but could not avert heavy losses? Wondering what went wrong despite your market analysis being spot on? It may not be a strategic issue then. It may just be that you chose the wrong lot size. Yes, a single oversized position can get your account exposed to far greater risks than you may imagine. You may be moved by the impressive profits with increasing lot sizes. But by doing so, you also invite a proportionate rise in losses. This is where you need to apply the essential 1% risk management principle. This rule helps you assess how much you can afford to lose if a trade does not go as planned.
