A Cauchy-type nonlinear problem for a class of fractional differential equations with sequential derivatives is considered in the space of weighted continuous functions. Some properties and composition identities are derived. The equivalence with the associated integral equation is established. An existence and uniqueness result of the global continuous solution is proved.
