MB Trading Earns Top Rating in Barron`s 2009 Review of On-Line Brokers


EL SEGUNDO, Calif.--(Business Wire)--
MB Trading ("MBT"), a technology-driven, low-commission brokerage specializing
in order routing in securities including Equities, Futures, FOREX, Bonds, and
Options through various global exchanges, earned the highest rating given of 4.5
out of 5 stars in Barron`s 2009 Review of On-Line Brokers. MBT tied for first
place in the trading technology category and was ranked second overall in a
field of twenty-five competitors.

"This achievement validates that MB Trading is an overall solution for traders,"
said Ross Ditlove, CEO of MB Trading. "Our competition includes large,
multi-billion dollar corporations, and we`re very pleased that we not only came
in second, but also topped most individual categories including trade
commission, technology, and client services. These components have been the
cornerstone of MB Trading`s services for over ten years."

MB Trading remains a privately held brokerage firm by design. The company
maintains a debt-free balance sheet and prides itself on its organic growth,
which was a major contributor to the successes of the last year. Internal growth
and strategic acquisitions allowed the company to bring to market web-based and
wireless trading along with in-depth options tools and an across-the-board
expansion of its trading platforms, including advanced charting and research for
traders.

Only two firms earned the 4.5 overall rating, and MB Trading tied for top honors
in the separately rated categories of "Best for Frequent Traders" and "Best for
Options Traders." In addition, the company received a nod on the list of "Best
for International Traders" for its innovations and services in the FOREX arena.
MB Trading`s technology drives the highly regarded FOREX ECN, 3DFOREX. While
FOREX trading is a minimal portion of the Barron`s review, MB Trading is a
pioneer in the field with direct access and transparent currency execution
systems.

"We`ve worked hard over the last year to move our technology forward and also to
provide more avenues of support and interaction with our clients and prospective
customers," said David Lipsett, Executive Vice-President of MB Trading.
"Barron`s readers are highly knowledgeable about the industry, and we`re honored
to receive their accolades. MBT will remain on the offensive and continue to
grow through acquisition and internal innovation. Our purchase of EFX Group in
2008 was the foundation of our new MBT University and the brainchild of Chris
Mercer, Director of the University. Our University courses are now filled to
capacity several weeks out, which demonstrates that our model of connecting
third parties to our order entry and account management systems and giving those
third parties a method to showcase their products to the market, works."

MB Trading has now earned a top rating in Barron`s reviews each year since 2004.
The principals of the firm believe that with the recent turn in the economy,
opportunities exist for acquisition of key technologies and services that will
further position the company for long-term growth. "We maintain a building
mode," added Lipsett. "If you look at the winner this year, they`ve been
acquired by a much larger player. Our goal for 2010 is nothing short of winning
the top slot."
