Yes but there is much more in the world of FX brokers.
“If there were only 3 or 4 brokers in that market it’d be hard enough to keep on top of your trading. A lot of the trading that happens now is in the form of long and short positions”

Here we have a guy explaining that the market is flooded with brokers. There are thousands upon thousands of brokerages out there running trading desks.

The big difference is that TradeHub’s company, TradeHub, is separate from Trading Machines. They are owned by a different company who then take the traders they hire away as part of the trade and then they take their money (usually in the form of commissions) and turn it into shares.
