  Our Review of ATFX

  l Company Overview
  Conceived in late 2014, ATFX Global Markets (CY) Ltd. (ex. Positiva Markets (CY) Ltd) was formed for the sole purpose of being the ideal liquidity provider for a variety of institutional clients. After achieving success with the institutional business model, the company decided to launch a retail brand, hence, ATFX was born.
