Institutional trading arm ATFX Connect has announced the launch of ConnectX, an ecosystem of technology solutions designed to enhance trading and execution for institutional clients.
The initiative represents a strategic investment by ATFX Connect to build a fully integrated technology stack from the ground up. The firm said the development reflects its commitment to providing clients with deeper liquidity, seamless execution, competitive pricing, and a Prime of Prime hub that combines market access and risk management.
ConnectX will debut with two core offerings in the third quarter of 2025, with additional components planned for 2026.
ConnectXTrade is a new execution engine designed to improve trading performance for margin traders and agency execution clients. The technology aims to deliver faster and more reliable trading, optimised for institutional requirements.
ConnectXPrime is a dedicated technology stack supporting ATFX Connect’s True Prime of Prime services. It consolidates technology integrations and venue-agnostic market access into a single credit relationship for clients.

“We are incredibly excited to introduce the market to ConnectX. This isn't just an upgrade; it's a fundamental reimagining of our technology infrastructure. By building our own proprietary ecosystem from the ground up, we gain complete control over the client experience, from the liquidity gateway to the user interface. ConnectX will empower our institutional clients with the speed, transparency, and flexibility they need to excel in today's competitive markets. This launch marks a new chapter for ATFX Connect as a true technology-driven liquidity provider.”
