Of note, shares booked a similarly impressive one-day gain of 50 percent on December 14, shortly after FXCM reaffirmed its $130 million buyback program and said it was still "committed" to restructuring its bailout agreement with Leucadia National Corp (NYSE: LUK).

A few days later, FXCM Director Ryan Silverman bought 21,000 shares.

Leucadia has reportedly made back three-times its initial assistance program made to FXCM in January after the company struggled with liquidity in the face of a surprise move by the Swiss franc.

FXCM did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
