Market Instruments

TopTradeGroup advertises that it offers over 180 financial instruments to trade, such as currencies, bonds, stocks, options, energy and precious metals.

Account Types

TopTradeGroup claims to offer 5 types of trading accounts - Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum and Diamond, with minimum initial deposit requirements of $250, $2,000, $10,000, $50,000 and $200,000 respectively. In comparison, licensed brokers allow setting up a starter account with a minimum deposit of $100 or even less.

Spreads & Commissions

All spreads with TopTradeGroup are a floating type and scaled with the accounts offered. For example, the spread starts from 1.8 pips on the Bronze and Silver accounts, from 1 pip on the Gold account, from 0.7 pips on the Platinum account and 0.4 pips on the Diamond account. The broker also charges some unspecified commissions.

Trading Platform Available

Instead of the world's most advanced and popularly-used MT4 and MT5 platforms, TopTradeGroup gives traders a WebTrader. Anyway, you had better choose brokers who offer the leading MT4 and MT5, which are highly praised by traders and brokers alike due to their ease of use and great functionality, offering top-notch charting and flexible customization options. They are especially popular for their automated trading bots, a.k.a. Expert Advisors.

Deposit & Withdrawal

TopTradeGroup says to accept funds via Neteller, MasterCard, Visa, Maestro, Piastrix, and Wire Transfer. The minimum requirement is said to be $250. Bronze, Silver and Gold accounts are said to exempt withdrawal fees, while the left two account types (Platinum and Diamond) have to pay some unspecified withdrawal fees. Deposits are said to be instant, while the information on the withdrawal processing time is missing.

Bonuses

TopTradeGroup claims to give some bonuses. For example, the upgrade bonus is 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% on the Silver, Gold, Platinum and Diamond respectively, while the welcome bonus is 10%, 15%, 20% and 25% on the Silver, Gold, Platinum and Diamond separately. In any case, you should be very cautious if you receive a bonus. Bonuses aren't client funds, they're company funds, and fulfilling the heavy requirements that are usually attached to them can prove a very daunting and difficult task. Note that brokers are prohibited from using bonuses and promotions by all leading regulators.
