NEW YORK, July 12, 2010

GAIN Capital Holdings, Inc., a global provider of online trading services specializing in foreign exchange (forex or FX) and contracts for difference (CFDs), has launched a new iPhone application offering full forex and precious metal trading capabilities along with up to the minute news, charts, research and account information.

The FOREXTrader for iPhone application complements FOREX.com's newly launched mobile website, which is enhanced for the latest generation of smartphones such as the Google Android, Palm Pre, and iPhone and is compatible with all major browsers. The mobile site provides visitors with quotes, charts, news and research and an extensive learning section featuring articles, video tutorials and more. It also offers secure account access for customers and registered practice account users to trade and manage their account. FOREX.com supports WAP-enabled mobile trading solutions for older mobile devices, available at http://wap.forex.com.

"Due to the round the clock nature of the forex market, mobile account access is an imperative for our customers," said Samantha Roady, chief marketing officer for GAIN Capital. "As a result, we're investing heavily in our mobile offering - significantly enhancing our mobile web trading experience as well as with the development of select native apps for the most popular devices, like the iPhone," said Ms. Roady.

FOREXTrader for iPhone includes:

• Quotes in 45 currency pairs, including spot gold and silver;
• A variety of order types, including market, limit, stop, One Cancels Others (OCO), If Then, If Then / OCO
       and Trailing Stop;
• Live newsfeed from Dow Jones;

       market hours;
• Daily research reports, including intraday market updates for each trading session;
• Candlestick and line charts with multiple time intervals;
• Updated economic calendar optimized for mobile devices; and
• Account balances, P&L and more.

"Over 80 percent of the visitors to our mobile website are on iPhones or iPod Touch devices. In developing our iPhone app, we looked to replicate as much of our award-winning FOREX.com user experience as possible, while taking full advantage of the intuitive interface and the robust customization that can be achieved in the Apple development environment," continued Ms. Roady.

To download the free application, iPhone and iPod touch users in the United States can now visit the App Store directly from their devices and search for "FOREXTrader" or online through Apple's iTunes App Store at: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/forextrader-by-forex-com/id367994204?mt=8. The application will be available globally in the coming weeks.
