Digital twin trading: Simulating the future of forex strategy
In the ever-evolving landscape of forex trading, where the interplay of global events, algorithmic execution, and shifting market sentiment grows increasingly complex, the search for strategic clarity has never been more pressing. Amid this complexity, one concept is quietly redefining how we approach strategy development and market resilience: Digital Twin Trading. A digital twin, at its core, is a dynamic, high-fidelity simulation of a real-world system. Originally developed in fields such as aerospace and manufacturing to optimise performance and anticipate breakdowns, the digital twin is now entering the world of financial markets. In the context of forex, it offers a powerful and practical model of trading environments — capturing the behaviour of market participants, liquidity flows, volatility shifts, and even latency dynamics — to test, refine, and future-proof strategies before capital is ever deployed. Throughout my career in financial markets, I've consistently prioritised foresight over reaction — seeking out tools and processes that allow for forward-looking decision-making. Digital twins reflect this mindset. They allow us to model trading strategies in environments that mirror real market conditions, offering a way to rehearse for tomorrow's volatility today. Unlike traditional backtesting tools, which are often built on static data and simplified assumptions, a digital twin evolves in real time. It integrates live market feeds, behavioural insights, and machine learning models to respond and adapt much like the actual market would. Traders and technologists can simulate 'what if' scenarios with greater confidence: What if market depth disappears? What if a macro release defies consensus? What if an AI-driven strategy reacts unpredictably in an illiquid pair? That said, any meaningful simulation must confront the structural realities of the forex market. As an over-the-counter (OTC) space, forex lacks a centralised exchange and a universal data source. Pricing and liquidity data are fragmented across brokers, platforms, and liquidity providers — each offering only a partial view of market conditions. In this context, the accuracy and reliability of data become critical. A robust digital twin must reflect these limitations, incorporating data gaps and execution inconsistencies into the model to avoid a misleading sense of precision. This has significant implications for risk management. A well-calibrated digital twin offers a secure environment to test not only strategy robustness but also the behaviour of risk under stress. It enables a deeper understanding of slippage, execution variability, and liquidity risk — factors that are often underestimated until they become consequential. In this way, simulation becomes a powerful complement to judgment and experience, providing a structured space for discovery and refinement. From my perspective as a financial professional, digital twins are not a theoretical luxury but a practical step towards more responsible and adaptive market engagement. They enhance our ability to navigate uncertainty without relying solely on historical patterns or intuition. More importantly, they encourage a culture of continuous experimentation and improvement — one where failure becomes a tool for learning rather than a trigger for loss. But the real promise of digital twins lies beyond the mechanics. They represent a shift in how we think about innovation and resilience. They support collaboration between human and artificial intelligence, bridge the gap between strategy and execution, and help transform abstract risk into tangible insight. This isn't about replacing the trader — it's about empowering the trader to make smarter, more informed decisions in real time. As forex markets continue to evolve at the intersection of AI, macroeconomic disruption, and geopolitical flux, we need tools that reflect both the complexity and the opportunity of this new era. Digital twin trading offers exactly that — a bridge between today's volatility and tomorrow's strategic clarity. The writer is CEO of Axiory Global.

How unsanctioned staff AI use exposes firms to data breach?
As chat bots that continue to grow in prominence across the globe and grab the attention of billions of people, a silent problem of privacy breaches is brewing, putting at risk companies that process scores of personal data. Cybersecurity firm Harmonic Security analysed over 176,000 prompts input by about 8,000 users into popular generative (gen) AI platforms like ChatGPT, Google's Gemini, Perplexity AI, and Microsoft's Copilot, and found that troves of sensitive information make their way into the platforms through the prompts. In the quarter to March 2025, about 6.7 percent of the prompts tracked contained sensitive information including customer personal data, employee data, company confidential legal and finance details, or even sensitive code. About 30 percent of the sensitive data were legal and finance data on companies' planned mergers or acquisitions, investment portfolio, legal discourse, billing and payment, sales pipeline, or even financial projections. Read: AIdentity crisis: How tech is easing online fraudCustomer data like credit card numbers, transactions, or profiles also made their way to these platforms through the prompts, as did employee information like payroll details and employment profiles. Developers seeking to improve or perfect their codes using genAI tools also inadvertently passed on copyrighted or intellectual property material, security keys, and network information into the bots, exposing their companies to fraudsters. Asked about the safety of such information, chat bots like ChatGPT always say the information is safe and is not shared with third parties. Even their terms of service say as much, but experts have a warning. While the information may seem secure within the bots and pose no threat of breach, the experts say it is time companies start checking and restricting what information their employees feed into these platforms, or risk massive data breaches.'One of the privacy risks when using AI platforms is unintentional data leakage,' warns Anna Collard, senior vice president for content strategy at cybersecurity firm KnowBe4 Africa. 'Many people don't realise just how much sensitive information they're inputting.''Cyber hygiene now includes AI hygiene. This should include restricting access to genAI tools without oversight or only allowing those approved by the company.'While a majority of companies around the globe now acknowledge the importance of AI in their operations and are beginning to adopt it, only a few organisations have policies or checks for AI output. According to McKinsey's latest State of AI survey that interviewed business leaders across the globe, only 27 percent of companies fully review content generated by AI. Forty three percent of companies check less than 40 percent of such content. But AI use is growing by the minute. Large language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT have trampled social media apps that have long been digital magnets in user visits and hours of daily interactions. Read: 'Godfather of AI' now fears it's unsafe. Proposes plan to rein it inMultiple studies, including the one by McKinsey, show that today, nearly three in four employees use genAI to complete simple tasks like writing a speech, proofreading a write-up, writing an email, analysing a document, generating a quotation, or even writing computer programmes. The rapid proliferation of Chinese-based LLMs like Deepseek is also seen increasing the threat of data breaches to companies. Over the past year, there has been an avalanche of new Chinese chat bots, including Baidu chat, Ernie Bot, Qwen chat, Manus, and Kimi Moonshot among others.'The Chinese government can likely just request access to this data, and data shared with them should be considered property of the Chinese Communist Party,' notes Harmonic in a recent report. © Copyright 2022 Nation Media Group.
