Each broker is rated on 40 criteria grouped into 5 pillars: regulation, fees, platforms, instruments and customer service. The full public methodology is detailed on our methodology page.

We currently review 8 international forex and CFD brokers: AvaTrade, FOREX.com, FP Markets, XM, Eightcap, Axi, Vantage and BlackBull Markets. All of them hold licences from recognized regulators such as the FCA, ASIC, CySEC or the CFTC. We add brokers as we complete our reviews.

Our ranking and our reviews are based solely on our public 40-criteria methodology. When you open an account with a broker through one of our links marked with a star, we may receive a commission, but this changes neither our ratings nor our ranking order.

Most international brokers operate several regulated entities. The entity that opens your account depends on where you live, and it determines the regulator that supervises your account, the maximum leverage, negative balance protection and any compensation scheme. A UK client of an FCA-regulated entity, for example, is protected by the FSCS, while a client of an offshore entity is not.

Tier-1 regulators include the FCA (United Kingdom), ASIC (Australia), the CFTC and NFA (United States), MAS (Singapore), the JFSA (Japan) and CIRO (Canada). CySEC (Cyprus, EU), the DFSA (Dubai), the FSCA (South Africa) and the FMA (New Zealand) are also recognized. Always check the broker's licence number on the regulator's official register before depositing.

We offer two free tools: the Asset Compass, to identify the instruments that match your profile, and Find My Broker, a 5-step questionnaire that recommends the brokers suited to your needs.
