Abstract:Binance announces the removal of select trading pairs in 2023 to ensure market quality. Traders advised to adjust strategies and consider BUSD asset conversion opportunities.

In a pivotal move to ensure user protection and uphold the quality of its trading market, Binance recently announced the Binance removal of trading pairs for 2023. This Binance delisting announcement was made on 2023-09-15, highlighting the significant changes in its trading pairs landscape.
The trading community must be aware of the following removals:
- Binance AMB/BUSD, ASTR/BUSD, BAT/ETH delisting will happen on 2023-09-15 03:00 (UTC).
- Binance DASH/BUSD, GMX/BUSD, and HOT/BUSD removal are also scheduled at the same time.
- By 2023-09-15 05:00 (UTC), the Binance IMX/BNB, KNC/BNB, MC/BUSD trading pair removal will be in effect, alongside the Binance MDT/BUSD, NULS/BUSD, RAD/BUSD, RAY/BUSD, REQ/BUSD delist.
Last but not least, traders should brace for the Binance SSV/BUSD, STMX/BUSD, TROY/BUSD, and WOO/BUSD termination at 2023-09-15 07:00 (UTC).
Despite these removals, Binance assures users that the delisting of a specific spot trading pair doesn't equate to the unavailability of those tokens on Binance Spot. In other words, users will still have avenues to trade using the base and quote assets of these delisted pairs on other available trading combinations within the platform.

Adding to the list of updates, Binance has also conveyed its decision to terminate Spot Trading Bots services for the affected spot trading pairs. This Binance Spot Trading Bots services termination for 2023 has precise timings: 03:00 (UTC), 05:00 (UTC), and 07:00 (UTC) on the 15th of September. Active traders using these bot services are highly advised to adjust or cancel their trading bots to prevent potential trading setbacks.
Moreover, Binance is nudging users to take action concerning their BUSD assets. With a recommendation to convert BUSD assets on Binance by February 2024, they've sweetened the deal, allowing users to trade their BUSD for FDUSD with zero trading fees. An alternative option provided is to switch BUSD balances to FDUSD at a straightforward 1:1 rate via Binances conversion portal.
Finally, any potential confusion arising from translated versions of these announcements should be clarified with the original English version, as it takes precedence.
To keep abreast of such crucial updates, Binance encourages users to download the WikiFX App on their smartphones. The application can be accessed through the link: https://www.wikifx.com/en/download.html.
All traders, especially those involved with the mentioned trading pairs, are advised to act swiftly to ensure smooth trading experiences.

The rupee bounced to 95.20 but RBI's forex reserves took a brutal $8.1 billion hit in a single week — here is what every Indian investor needs to understand right now.

Dalal Street gap-up on Iran-US peace hopes and crude crash has traders divided between a 1,500-point rally and a classic bull trap — here is what the data actually says.

No, we are not kidding! The rupee has indeed hit this low, from 90 to 95 against the US dollar, the fastest in nearly a decade, highlighting the slump due to rising crude oil prices and global uncertainty from the series of adverse events related to the geopolitical conflict in the Middle East. It just took five months for the rupee to weaken from 90 to 95, the sharpest five-point depreciation since the 2013 taper tantrum. During this period, the rupee declined from 60 to 65 within a month amid concerns over India’s current account deficit and large capital outflows.

If you've spent any time researching forex brokers, you've almost certainly run into the labels ECN and STP. They sound technical, broker marketing departments use them interchangeably, and the actual difference matters more for your trading costs than most beginners realize. Both ECN and STP are No Dealing Desk (NDD) execution models — neither broker type takes the opposite side of your trade. That alone separates them from market makers and matters because it removes a fundamental conflict of interest. But the way each model routes your order, prices it, and earns revenue is structurally different, and those differences directly translate into the spread you pay, the slippage you absorb, and whether your strategy is profitable at scale. This guide breaks down exactly how the two models work, where they diverge, and which one fits which type of trader.
