BOSTON, Feb. 7, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Block & Leviton LLP (www.blockesq.com), a securities litigation firm representing investors nationwide, is investigating whether FXCM, Inc. ("FXCM" or the "Company") (NASDAQ GM: FXCM) and certain of its officers and directors violated federal securities laws following the news Commodities Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC") banned the Company from trading on U.S. markets.

On February 6, 2017, the CFTC issued an order against FXCM requiring the Company to withdraw from CFTC regulation and pay a $7 million fine. The order outlined that from 2009 through at least 2014, FXCM and its founding partners "engaged in false and misleading solicitations to its retail foreign exchange customers" by concealing its relationship with its most important market maker.

On this news, shares have fallen more than 50%, causing tens of millions in losses to investors.
