JP Attueyi (@jpattueyi) reported@dammiedammie35 Congrats on your forex win. But have you looked at the tax implications starting in January 2026? 1. If you LIVE in Nigeria and trade forex on: MetaTrader Deriv Binance ICMarkets Exness Oanda Any foreign broker Then, ALL income you earn, whether abroad or locally, is taxable in Nigeria. Section 12 makes this clear. So even if your FX profits never enter Nigeria… If you are resident → you owe tax on them. 2. Your FX profits must be converted using the official market rate. The Act defines the only valid valuation standard as: “currency exchanged market approved by the Central Bank of Nigeria.” This means the official CBN/NAFEM rate NOT the black-market rate If you record profits using black market rates, but FIRS recalculates using the official rate, your taxable income will be different, often higher. This is a silent but powerful rule. 3. FX deposits into your Nigerian bank account can trigger scrutiny Under Section 29 (presumptive assessment): FIRS can tax any “unexplained deposit” based on “circumstances of the individual.” So if you do forex and money enters your account: USD inflow FX withdrawals from brokers Naira equivalent from online platforms You MUST be able to prove: the source that it is trading income that it is not business revenue disguise that you paid tax on profit. Otherwise, FIRS can deem the inflow as taxable income even if it is just a transfer. 4. If FX is your business, it becomes taxable under Section 4(1)(a) If you trade forex regularly, with the intention to profit, the law classifies this as: a trade, business, or vocation, which makes ALL gains taxable. Section 4(1) says income is taxable when it arises from “trade, business, profession, or vocation.” So: Casual trading = still taxable Full-time trading = clearly taxable Automated EA/bot trading = taxable Copy trading = taxable You cannot avoid PIT because “it’s online.” 5. Losses from forex are NOT deductible unless you keep proper records. Forex traders often lose money. But under the Act: personal losses are NOT deductible business losses MUST be backed by records If you cannot prove losses, FIRS will tax ONLY your gains. 6. Crypto-based forex is still taxable Even if you trade forex using: USDT BTC Stablecoins offshore wallets crypto funded FX brokers, it is still worldwide income under Section 12. Crypto is NOT a loophole. The law taxes the income, not the currency. 7. If you trade forex for clients, you have EXTRA tax obligations If you: manage accounts collect investor funds do account flipping take commissions earn performance fees Then the income is “income from service” under Section 4(1)(d) This requires: personal income tax possibly registering a company filing CIT if corporate tracking commission income Forex account managers are firmly within FIRS visibility now.

Lrene87 (@Li1523) reportedCraig Erlam, senior market analyst at OANDA, said that gold is approaching a very meaningful support area between $1,780 and $1,800, but economic data may determine how firm the support area is. "Its reaction to this level is likely to be a strong indicator of market sentiment at

Brinny (@TvRuleBritannia) reported@dmartin_trading There is that. I have found that my Oanda volume data used in the VWAP is almost identical to CME data through Interactive Brokers. When I put SPX500 against ES on a daily VWAP the differences are very small. It was a concern of mine when using VWAP on Oanda. On longer time frames it is probably even less of an issue, but I guess it depends on the quality of the data volume you are using. But for an algo you would want everything to align perfectly.

Amir Hossein Rezaei (@miro_rez) reportedFTMO didn't build a brokerage. They bought one. OANDA: licenses in 8 countries. $250M credit line from UniCredit. J.P. Morgan advised the deal. While 80+ prop firms shut down, FTMO became a regulated entity. The era of pretending they're not financial services is over.

Qussl3 (@qussl3) reportedIf you’re ok with the counterparty risk There’s some CFD bucket shops which as of right now will pay you to take leveraged longs on Brent For eg Oanda pays 5.5% to go long Brent (cfd so your $ aren’t actually reaching the underlying mkt beyond the provider’s need to hedge) Get paid to wait on potential asymmetric upside ain’t bad

Christopher C. Leon (@Christcleon) reportedBe cautious before investing in these platforms #waxblock #bcgame #Oanda Some users report withdrawal delays, account restrictions, and concerns over accessing funds 🔒 ⛔ Never pay unexpected “release” charges and keep all payment details and transaction records. 📩 Seek help from verified crypto recovery professionals if you believe you have been affected.

Nzagha Ikechukwu (@Nzagha_) reported@PropFirmMedia @FTMO_com Perhaps they counted for Oanda too since they're now the owners. FTMO remains the biggest hand here. But I do support the push for more transparency from them. They're the biggest, they should lead by example.
