ThinkMarkets Reaches More Traders Through Growth and Platform Development

ThinkMarkets, a global brokerage founded in 2010, has positioned itself as a viable firm in online trading markets. Its position stems from platform development and regulatory expansion, enabling the company to reach a wider audience. Centering around its proprietary platform, ThinkTrader, the firm has spent a year refining its tools while expanding operations across critical markets in Africa, the Middle East, and beyond.

ThinkMarkets unveiled a version of its ThinkTrader app for Android in July 2025, focusing on interface consistency and user experience. Design updates have emphasized more straightforward navigation and alignment with the firm’s broader online strategies, with a client-centric approach. This remodeled design is part of a continuing effort by the company to enhance and modernize how clients interact with the platform across multiple devices. 

Opening Doors With ThinkTrader and Traders’ Gym

The Android app also opens the doors to a new trader base and makes ThinkTrader more inclusive to many traders. The platform provides access to nearly 4,000 instruments, spanning forex, indices, commodities, and other valuable assets relevant to the trading world. It supports advanced charting tools, enabling traders to monitor markets with real-time precision, a useful, modern technology that helps reduce trader risk.

The platform includes the Trend-Risk Scanner and Signal Centre trade ideas for more comprehensive analysis and trading, which helps traders analyze markets. The analysis enables traders to manage trades more effectively from the web, desktop, and mobile devices. 

Traders’ Gym is another upgrade ThinkMarkets added to help traders make informed investment decisions. The addition is a backtesting environment, allowing users to simulate and test trading strategies based on historical data. This feature enables trades using real-time information at no monetary risk to traders, a way to test the waters before making actual trading decisions.

Regulatory Expansion

As of mid-2025, ThinkTrader operates under a variety of regulatory licenses, including approvals from the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC), the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) in the UK, and the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC), among others. The regulatory expansion enables the firm to conduct business in over 165 countries and expand into the African and Middle Eastern markets. 

This expansion strategy reflects the firm’s desire to be a significant partner in countries where mobile-first trading adoption is on the rise. ThinkMarkets was able to undergo expansion by raising $40 million in capital in 2022 to support its global endeavors. The firm has not disclosed how the capital was allocated, but its recent expansion and platform upgrades are a solid indication of where the money was spent. 

Future Stability

ThinkMarkets’ recent expansion in regulation and online presence positions it to continue its upward trajectory. The firm aims to do this by reaching a broader audience, a driving force behind the creation of the Android app. This improvement, coupled with global expansion, is a clear indicator of where the firm plans to be in the near future. Already reaching over 165 countries, ThinkMarkets is poised to be a viable trading partner with simulated trades and in-depth market research, helping traders make informed decisions.
