  @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.

  @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.

  3-layer fix applied: ✅ Live units fetched from OANDA before EVERY partial close ✅ Close size calculated from live position, never stale data ✅ Pre-flight cap — order can NEVER exceed what’s actually open No more retry spam. One clean close. Done.

  @flackos_gang Looking at OANDA, the Upthrust in late Jan 2026 had diminishing volume, bearish divergence in CVD, followed by an immediate reversal and a high volume sell off. The recent rally has diminishing volume and positive CVD. It’s a mixed signal. Potentially due to CTAs being forced to buy after being short. Iran deal, Straight opening, oil falling is fueling risk on near term. Tom Lee does expect a larger draw down later this year, so if this is Wyckoff Distribution, it could make sense. If we start seeing bearish divergence forming in CVD and volume continues to diminish as price increases, that’s a signal to reduce risk and prepare for a pullback. Now is not the time to chase.

  @antflores01 @GustavoBolivar No, you don't need an ISDA Master Agreement for a standard retail margin account. That's for institutional OTC derivatives trading between banks, hedge funds, or large counterparties. Retail brokers (like Interactive Brokers, TD Ameritrade, or forex platforms such as OANDA) provide margin accounts via their own customer agreements. You just apply, meet net worth/equity minimums, and get approved for leverage on forex, stocks, or ETFs. For COP/USD carry trades, this lets you borrow low in USD and buy higher-yield assets—subject to your broker's rules, margin calls, and FX risk. Check your broker's terms, as U.S. regs (Reg T) limit leverage vs. offshore options.

  @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.
