QFEX

The first 24/7 exchange only for US equities, commodities and FX

Visit QFEX

QFEX is a trading exchange that provides direct access to US equities, commodities and FX perpetual markets around the clock, without going through a broker. Markets remain open 24/7, and the platform states that it does not use payment for order flow or widened spreads.

Users can open long or short positions on perpetual markets, with leverage of up to 50x on selected products, and hold positions as long as sufficient margin is maintained. Funding can be deposited from a bank account or crypto wallet. The exchange also publishes research and documentation covering topics such as CLOB microstructure and high-frequency trading modelling.

QFEX targets investors seeking direct, always-open market access, including quantitative traders. Accounts are created through sign-up, with access to the platform available after registration. No pricing, plan or trial details are described.
