Market Instruments

With IFX Markets, clients 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).

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

With IFX Markets, the minimum transaction size is 1 lot or 10,000 of the base currency. An account with a margin deposit of 1 percent would open a US$10,000 position and would require an initial margin deposit of US$100.

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).

Sign-up is easy and efficient, with quick (within a minute) email confirmation. 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.

And let's not forget about the core issue here - the trading fees. I can tell you from my own experience that they are exorbitant. The spread and commission fees are some of the highest I've ever seen in my years of online trading.

IFX Markets is what we call a "three no's" platform - no regulation, no reputation, and no transparency. Looking back, I have no idea why I was so dumb to start trading there in the first place. The product range is super limited and there aren't many trading tools available, which is a real pain if you're new to the game. What’s worse, their customer service is slow and unresponsive, leaving you with no support or guidance when you need it most.
