Alchemy Markets

What Alchemy Markets does

Alchemy Markets is a privately held, multi-asset CFD broker founded in 2015 that provides retail, professional, and institutional clients with access to over 300 trading instruments across 10+ asset classes, including Forex, single stocks, indices, commodities, cryptocurrencies, and ETFs. The platform is built around 100% straight-through-processing execution routing to a tier-1 liquidity pool of 20+ major banks and non-bank liquidity providers, with order latency under 10 milliseconds on infrastructure hosted at Equinix LD4 (London) and NY4 (New York). Client-facing interfaces include MetaTrader 4/5, TradingView, a proprietary CopyTrade mobile application, and FIX API 4.4 for institutional algorithmic traders, supplemented by FXBlue tool integrations, Equinix-hosted VPS for Expert Advisors, and a proprietary GDIUSD gold index.

The firm operates a tiered account model (Demo, Classic at $1,000, Premier at $5,000, VIP at $50,000) plus $25,000-minimum FIX API institutional access, and is regulated by the Seychelles FSA, Malta MFSA, and the UK FCA via Alchemy Prime Limited. Revenue is generated primarily through spread markups on commission-free Forex, metals, and indices, percentage commissions on crypto and futures CFDs (0.08%-0.40% round-turn by tier), a share of copy-trading performance fees (up to 50% to providers), and net interest spread on High-Yield Accounts paying up to 3.50% p.a. on USD balances. Go-to-market combines self-serve digital acquisition, an introducing-broker and affiliate program targeting MEA, APAC, and LATAM, active event sponsorship at iFX EXPO, Forex Expo Dubai, Online Trading Expo Hong Kong, and Jeddah Fintech Week, and a dedicated institutional sales team. The company has been recognized with multiple 2025-2026 industry awards including Best Global Broker 2026 and Most Trusted Multi-Asset CFD Broker Global 2026, and is restricted from serving clients in the EU, US, Malaysia, Russia, and Ukraine.
