This relatively young broker was founded in The Virgin Islands. They claim to be regulated but we have not been able to find the body that regulates them. Their selling point is that they are an ECN broker meaning the contracts that a trader opens with them go directly into the bank. Due to this, they are able to offer very tight fixed spreads which will not be subject to manipulation.
They offer two trading accounts to choose from. The Raw Spread account features pips that are as low as 0.01. They also offer a flat rate commission for every trade, the rate is not specified. With this account, you can trade over 200 instruments you can trade as well as 20 cryptos you can trade as well. The No commission account offers spreads starting at 1.5 pips and is able to trade the same instruments and pairs as the Raw Spread account. The trade off here is that there is no longer a commission charged for trades so that may be advantageous for people who want to trade small amounts but do not want to pay the flat rate commission fee which the raw account offers
Issues
The Broker claims that they are regulated yet they present no legal documentation or make any affiliation with any known regulatory board which is already a troubling Red Flag. We do not want to simply dump on the platform in this review, however, this is something that cannot be ignored.
Regulating a broker places protection over the rights of us traders. Trading with a broker without regulation might mean that you are subject to all the nasty tricks and manipulations brokers do to get traders to lose their trading funds unfairly.
Despite being an ECN broker (which at this point we only take them for their word as they are no regulators who ensure that this is the actual case) there are a number of ways a broker can swindle you out of cash. If you are attracted to the low spreads on offer remember that there is a commission rate to be charged and yes, this is a flat rate, however, you will only benefit from those by trading big amounts of money. This may encourage you to overtrade and prove more difficult.
Another issue is that you can fund the account only using crypto at the moment. That is another troubling sign as with crypto it is harder to retrieve your funds if not impossible. This broker can just decide to take all these crypto funds and just leave. No one will be able to retrieve those funds if this broker decided to close its doors.
The promises that this broker may sound exciting, however, until this broker makes an effort to attain regulation we cannot recommend this broker. If you are looking for a broker I still recommend you search using WikiFx.
