About Us

Welcome to Synthetics.info—where we cut through the noise and give you the real deal on synthetic indices. I’m Jafar Omar, and I’ve been trading these markets since 2015—starting with forex and binary options before discovering the pure action of synthetics. This site is built on my hands-on research, charting live price moves, and backtesting the hell out of every strategy I share.

Why We’re Here

Trading synthetics isn’t the same as forex. No news gaps, no holiday shutdowns—just algorithm-driven price action you can trade 24/7. Our goal is to help you understand exactly how these instruments move, when to trade them, and how to manage risk without the fluff or jargon.

What You’ll Find

  • Data-Driven Guides: I’m not guessing—every post is backed by hours of candle-data analysis and real-money demos.

  • Trader-First Strategies: No academic theory. If I haven’t scalp-tested it myself, it doesn’t make the cut.

  • Unbiased Broker Reviews: We break down platforms, fees, and tools so you can pick the best setup for your game.

  • Expert Voices: Taylor Chiyangwa keeps our content optimized and on-point, while Munyaradzi Kaduya fact-checks every number and claim.

Jafar Omar

Lead Trading Expert | Main Author

I’m Jafar Omar, your go-to guy for all things synthetic indices. I kicked off my trading journey back in 2015—cutting my teeth on forex and binary options before zeroing in on the non-stop action of Deriv’s synthetics. Since then, I’ve traded across countless platforms, tested every strategy under the sun, and survived more wipeouts than I care to admit.

What you get here is the distilled result of those battles: no fluff, just battle-tested setups, real-world data, and straight talk on how these markets move. My goal is simple—give you the tools and insights I wish I had when I started, so you can hit the ground running and stay one step ahead.

Taylor Chiyangwa

SEO Specialist | Reviewer

Taylor wears two hats here—he’s not only our go-to SEO brain but also a hands-on forex trader who lives and breathes market action. Armed with Google certifications in Digital Marketing and Content Creation, he fine-tunes every article for maximum reach without ever sacrificing the straight-talk trader voice you expect.

Behind the scenes, Taylor’s the one running keyword deep dives, building our site architecture, and tweaking headlines so you find the exact strategy you need when you need it. He’s coded his own backtester in Python, so he gets the data side as much as the marketing side. If you click “read more” and your search results light up, you’ve got Taylor to thank.

Munyaradzi Kaduya

Blogger | Fact Checker | Editor

Munyaradzi is the eagle-eyed guardian of our data and the polish behind every post you read here. Before joining the Synthetics.info team, he spent years in the financial services trenches—vetting broker claims, auditing platform features, and making sure every price tick and minimum-lot detail checks out.

Armed with a digital marketing background and a relentless eye for detail, Munyaradzi combs through every candle-data figure, broker spec, and trading strategy to catch anything that doesn’t add up.

If you see a clean table of stats or a perfectly precise lot-size reference, that’s Munyaradzi’s handiwork. His dedication ensures you get nothing but rock-solid, bullet-proof information you can trade with confidence.
