About QFEX

QFEX is the 24/7 exchange for traditional financial markets. We let you trade US equities, commodities and FX pairs with (or without) leverages of up to 100x. On QFEX, UX comes first: brokerless market access, seamless integration with traditional payment rails, and ultra-efficient Perpetual Futures offered over all asset classes. Trading has never been simpler, cheaper or fairer than with QFEX. Founded by Quants and Engineers from Citadel & Tower Research who saw an opportunity to make markets how they always should have been, QFEX will eventually replace the entire $100 billion exchange and clearing industry.
