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.

DAN™ (@WayneofFUTA) reported@QueenXenthe .OANDA I haven't had any issues since I switched all my charts to OANDA servers

RajaBanks (@RajaBanks) reported@lordofindicies @jaymognjenga These platforms you mentioned, are heavily regulated which means lower leverage, Oanda, TD Forex, no hedging, only FIFO execution, higher commissions. Someone has to be really stupid to agree to those terms of trading. Which, ability to make less money.

PipBack (@PipBack_com) reportedA recent study suggests that prop firms are increasingly becoming funnels into brokerage accounts. According to Finance Magnates (*1), some firms have converted over 10% of prop traders into live brokerage clients. At the same time, brokers like Axi and OANDA have launched their own prop-style offerings (*2). More recently, Topstep has also moved in this direction, launching its own brokerage (Topstep Brokerage) and transitioning traders toward live capital accounts within its ecosystem (*3). This suggests a structural shift where prop firms are not just products, but customer acquisition channels for brokers. Sources: *1 Finance Magnates (2024) - ATFX report *2 DX trade / Brokeree industry reports *3 LiquidityFinder (2026) - TopstepX launch

Geoffrey🦅@1324 (@SvGeoff) reported@AlgoFootPrint I just compared your chart with mine and they're completely different that's why I said on Friday it didn't take liquidity.

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

Dee Dee (វណ្ណឌី) (@the_westender) reported@traderjulesk @the5erstrading Yeah, a few commenters said that others using cTrader on other firms were the same but they didn't specify which firms. Anyway, I can't trust cTrader with 5ers now. I have accounts with Pepperstone, OANDA, Exness, and others and no flash dump or gap down was shown. Disappointed. I had high hopes for 5ers too, but this experience taints it a bit.

hyder shah (@hydy_512) reported@CryptoCowboy_AU So what is the alternative of binance. Currently, I am trading on reputable brokers like Oanda and FBS but never had this problem during the big news.
