- OANDA’s deposits sink nearly 20% year-on-year as January data confirms a broad pullback across US retail currency markets.
- Gain Capital retains its grip on roughly 40% of the market as the total industry pot shrinks to its lowest reading since the third quarter of 2023.
Customer
deposits held by US retail forex brokers fell sharply in January, with the
industry’s combined total dropping to $472.96 million, the lowest figure
recorded in more than two years and well below a high-water mark of $557.5
million set back in June 2024.
Every
broker tracked in the monthly CFTC financial disclosure data posted a decline
from December’s levels, and four of the six platforms are sitting below where
they were twelve months ago. The data, drawn from the Commodity Futures Trading
Commission’s (CFTC) mandatory Futures Commission Merchant (FCM) filings,
capture total retail forex obligations, effectively, the pool of customer
assets each regulated dealer holds on behalf of its US clients.
OANDA’s Decline Deepens
Under New Ownership
No broker
has lost more ground than OANDA. January’s figure of $133.7 million represents
an 8% drop from December and a 19% collapse year-on-year, when OANDA was still
managing $165.6 million in US retail forex deposits.
The slide
is hard to disentangle from the ownership change that reshaped the broker’s
profile last year. Prop trading giant FTMO acquired OANDA
in early 2025, and
by March 2026 OANDA had
formally transitioned its prop trading clients to the FTMO brand, narrowing the scope of its US
retail operation in the process.
OANDA’s
share of total US retail forex deposits now stands at roughly 28%, down from a
position that once put it firmly in second place with greater distance behind
Gain Capital.
Gain Capital Holds Firm,
Though Its Lead Narrows
Gain
Capital, which operates the Forex.com platform in the United States, remains
the dominant player with $203.1 million in January, still commanding 42.9% of
the total market. But the number itself has pulled back from the $211.8 million
it held at year-end, and it is running 4% below the $211.5
million reported in January 2025, when the broker was benefiting from strong monthly inflows.
Join the inaugural Finance Magnates Singapore Summit 2026, which will bring together brokers, fintechs, banks, EMIs, wealth managers, and hedge funds across APAC.
The broker
has not posted a meaningful breakout since touching $226.6 million in March
2025. That plateau, combined with a post-summer cooling across the market,
suggests demand in US retail forex is under genuine pressure.
Gain
Capital’s market share above 44% in the second half of 2024 has gradually
eroded, and the December
2025 data now
looks more like a temporary stabilization.

Charles Schwab and tastyfx
Lose Ground
Charles
Schwab’s forex unit shed just over 5% in January, falling to $58.6 million from
$61.8 million in December. That marks a roughly $2.6 million shortfall against
the same month last year, though Schwab’s year-on-year decline of 4.3% is
relatively contained compared to broader industry weakness.
tastyfx, the
US retail forex brand of London-listed IG Group, which rebranded from
IG US in 2024, dropped
3.7% on the month to $44.6 million. Of the four brokers showing annual
declines, tastyfx is the most modest, down just 1.7% year-on-year.
The broker
launched Prime accounts in September 2025 targeting professional traders with
a 6% promotional
annual yield on cash deposits, a product designed to attract larger clients and retain high-value
balances.
Interactive Brokers and
Trading.com Swim Against the Tide
Against an
otherwise uniform picture of decline, Interactive Brokers and Trading.com stand
out as the only two brokers showing positive deposits compared to January 2025.
Interactive Brokers held $30.1 million in retail forex assets at end-January,
down 7.3% from December but up 16.4% year-on-year – a contrast that reflects
how badly the broker had underperformed a year ago when deposits had already
fallen to a low base.
In November
2025, Interactive
Brokers’ deposits plunged 20% in a single month, making the subsequent recovery, including
a 21% surge in
December, look more
like oscillation than a trend.
Trading.com,
the smallest platform by absolute deposit size at $2.86 million, posted the
shallowest monthly decline of any broker, shedding just 1.4% from December.
More notable is the year-on-year comparison: Trading.com’s deposits are
up 25.4% from a year ago, continuing a growth trajectory that,
while small in absolute dollar terms, is consistent and directionally distinct
from the rest of the market.
US retail
forex brokers operating as Futures Commission Merchants or Retail Foreign
Exchange Dealers are required to report monthly financial disclosures to the
CFTC, including adjusted net capital figures and total retail forex
obligations. All six brokers covered here remain in compliance with NFA
membership and CFTC registration requirements as of the January reporting date.

Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav sits down with Finance Magnates to discuss the core technology challenges facing CFD brokers and proprietary trading firms today.
Jadhav explains how the industry’s reliance on batch processing and fragmented systems (where CRMs, risk tools, and trading platforms operate with separate ‘sources of truth’) leads to delayed data and inconsistent operational decisions. He argues that real-time event processing is essential for managing fast-moving trading activity and risk.
Learn how Altima’s unified, event-driven architecture, connecting Altima CRM, Altima Prop, IB systems, and risk management through a single backbone, is designed to provide synchronous data and better operational coordination for modern brokerage and prop firm stacks.
Key Topics:
– Broker and Prop Firm Data Challenges
– The problem of delayed data processing (batch processing vs. real-time events)
– Fragmented systems and conflicting data sources
– Altima’s unified, event-driven solution architecture
– The concept of a “risk-aware CRM”
– Built-in risk management in Altima Prop#Altima #financemagnates #iFXDubai #FinTech #BrokerTech #PropFirm #CFDBroker #TradingTechnology #RealTimeData #RiskManagement #CRM #FinancialMarkets #EventDrivenArchitecture
