The concept of this SoFinX eco-system is based on “Social Trading without barriers”, meaning that Traders and Brokerages are not limited to only their own Brokerage but can access a network of decentralized Signals (”Trading signal providers”). A Trader can be a member of “Brokerage A” and still able to follow/copy other Traders from “Brokerage B/C/D” and build their own Trading portfolio based on proven results of professional Signal Providers. Signal providers on the other hand can share their Signals with the entire market and become their own fund, earning profit shares from their followers.
