Hong Kong – Citi announced today that it has introduced Web and Mobile versions of the CitiFX Pro margin FX trading platform for Hong Kong clients. CitiFX Pro clients are now able to access their accounts and trade realtime via three state-of-the-art platforms: CitiFX ProTrader (the current desktop version), CitiFX Pro Web and CitiFX Pro Mobile.

Clients with Internet browser access can view streaming prices and charts for over 130 currency pairs and execute trades via CitiFX Pro Web, which can be launched without software installation, and includes our highly-rated proprietary research and market commentary.

Prospective clients can now try the Web platform via an innovative “Instant Demo”, which is available on www.citifxpro.hk. The demo allows the user to experience a realistic FX trading environment using live prices.
