Account & Leverage
IFX Markets seems to offer two accounts Standard with minimum deposit of $500 and Premium with minimum deposits of $25000, all with leverage of 1:50. which as a broker positioned more towards forex is tailored towards the investment requirements of most forex traders. The broker also offers a free demo account, which is an excellent means for prospective clients to conduct a test run of the brokers features before signing up for a live trading account.
IFX Markets operates under the auspices of the FCA, and as such is authorized to offer a maximum leverage of 1:50, which is standard for many regulated brokers in the industry, and does carry less risk than higher ratios offered elsewhere.
Trade Size

Spreads & Commissions
Traders can trade among 27 currency pairs, with 2 point spreads on both EUR/USD and USD/JPY, and 3 point spreads in other major currencies (GBP/USD, USD/CHF).

You can use one of 10 currencies to fund your account, but must start with at least $500, which is much less than some other popular Forex sites. Commissions are charged on the IFX Raw Account only, at $3 one way. Overall, IFX Brokers provides very competitive trading conditions.
Trading Platform Available
IFX Markets provides trading through a single proprietary platform, IFX Direct. The platform has garnered some positive feedback from users for its fast execution, with instant live access to Forex 24 hours a day, in certain trade sizes, at the click of a mouse.

The main qualities that a client looks for in a broker or a trading firm are commitment, transparency and trust. It is, therefore, heartening to learn that IFX Brokers, a South-Africa based online trading broker system, was founded on these values. The company has come to represent all this and more for its clients the world over.
Kwakol Markets takes pride in its young, dynamic and highly qualified leadership team.
