FxPro at a glance
FxPro has been in the market since 2006, a track record of about 20 years. In this review we look at how the broker performs on the data we have verified: cost, safety, platforms, conditions and service.
On regulation, FxPro holds licences from FCA, and at least one of them belongs to the group of regulators we classify as tier 1. That is a meaningful positive for client protection, but the protections you actually receive depend on the entity that serves your country.
On cost, the published average EUR/USD spread at FxPro is 1.2 pips on a spread-based model, so the visible price of a trade is built into the quote rather than charged separately.
For trading tools, the verified platform list for FxPro includes MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5, cTrader, and Web trader.
In our country checks, the number of countries where FxPro accepts new clients is 10, and 10 of them are among our 15 priority markets.
Overall, FxPro earns 4.6 out of 5 from Brokeli. Its strongest scored area is Safety and its weakest is Fees, which is a useful guide to where it leads and where you should look closer.
What our experts say about FxPro
Three members of the Brokeli editorial panel comment on the published data for FxPro. They interpret the numbers; they do not add new ones.
1.2 pips on EUR/USD is middling. Fine for occasional trading, but frequent traders will notice it.
Daniel compares spreads, commissions and financing across brokers and checks every cost claim against contract specifications.
A tier-1 licence from FCA is the strongest single safety signal we can give, though it covers only the entity that serves you.
Priya reads regulator registers and legal documents, and checks which entity actually serves clients in each country.
Professional-grade terminals in the platform list (MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5, cTrader, and Web trader) make FxPro workable for serious charting and automation.
Marcus tests trading terminals, mobile apps and charting tools for stability, order types and day-to-day usability.
Expert commentary is the Brokeli editorial team's interpretation of published research data. It is not investment advice and never changes a rating or toplist position.
Who is FxPro best for?
A regulated broker with an accessible entry point; a good place to learn with small positions.
Reasonable for active trading, but compare costs or tools with the strongest alternatives.
Support for MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5, cTrader, and Web trader with competitive pricing makes automated strategies feasible.
A low entry point keeps the cost of starting small.
Fees & Trading Costs
All spread and commission figures are verified against published contract specifications.
Benchmark Spreads on Major Pairs
| Instrument | Typical Spread | Lot Commission |
|---|---|---|
| EUR/USD | 1.2 pips | $0 (spread only) |
Cost analysis
FxPro publishes an average EUR/USD spread of 1.2 pips and no separate commission on the pricing we verified. The cost of a trade is therefore the spread itself, which makes budgeting simple: multiply the spread by your position size.
To make the 1.2 pip spread concrete, the table below converts it into dollars for three common position sizes. It is an illustration of the quoted spread only.
What a trade costs: EUR/USD spread example
| Trade size | Approx. spread cost (USD) |
|---|---|
| Lots: 0.01 | $0.12 |
| Lots: 0.1 | $1.20 |
| Lots: 1 | $12.00 |
Illustration only: published average spread multiplied by a $10 pip value per standard lot on a USD account. Commission, swaps and slippage are not included.
Inactivity: the snapshot lists no inactivity fee for FxPro, and we do not assume one either way. Confirm in the fee schedule if you plan to trade rarely.
Spread and commission are only part of what you pay. Before you commit, review these cost points at FxPro:
Where trading costs usually hide
- Overnight swaps: positions held past the daily rollover pay or earn financing, and long holds can cost more than the spread.
- Currency conversion: funding or withdrawing in a currency other than your account currency often carries a markup.
- Withdrawal and payment fees: some methods are free, others carry a flat fee or intermediary bank charges.
- Inactivity fees: some brokers charge accounts that stay idle for a long period.
- Platform and data fees: market data, VPS hosting and premium tools can be billed separately.
1.2 pips is an average price for the majors. It will not hurt a casual trader, but a scalper will feel it quickly; the saving from a tighter account type can be significant.
My habit is to price a month of my own trading, not a single trade. Multiply your average lots by the spread and add overnight financing; this is what really separates brokers.
Safety, Trust & Regulation
Brokeli verifies regulatory status directly against government financial registry databases.
Recognized regional regulatory authority
Client Fund Safety Protections
- Negative Balance Protection: Ensures retail accounts cannot lose more capital than deposited during violent market gaps.
Regulation in detail
FxPro is licensed by FCA through its published legal entity. A single-entity structure keeps the regulatory picture easy to read.
Which entity opens your account depends on where you live, and that decides your regulator, leverage limits, compensation scheme and dispute process. Two clients of FxPro in different countries can have quite different protection.
The licences include FCA, which belong to the group of regulators we treat as tier 1: public registers, enforceable client-money rules and an active enforcement record.
Our regulation tier score for FxPro is 5 on a 5-point scale, taken from the verified licence data.
Negative balance protection is published as available for FxPro. This means a retail account should not lose more than the deposited funds when a gap move overshoots your margin.
Whether client funds are covered by a statutory compensation scheme depends on the entity and the regulator. Ask FxPro which scheme, if any, applies to your account and read its limits.
How to verify the licence yourself
- Open the regulator's official public register, not a link from an ad or chat.
- Search by the legal entity name and licence number shown in the table above.
- Check that the entity serving your country is the one named on the account agreement.
- Compare the website domain on the register with the domain you are about to fund.
A tier-1 licence from FCA is the strongest evidence of oversight we can verify. I would still read the client-money and compensation terms of the specific entity you sign with.
A simple test: can you find the exact legal entity name from the agreement on the regulator's own register? If not, stop and ask the broker.

Platforms in detail
The verified platform list for FxPro: MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5, cTrader, and Web trader. Platform availability can differ by entity and country, so treat the list as what the broker offers overall.
FxPro offers both MetaTrader and cTrader, a rare combination that lets you choose between the largest Expert Advisor ecosystem and a more modern interface with deeper order tools.
Whatever the main terminal, test the mobile app and the web terminal with a demo or a small live account before relying on them: order entry, charts, alerts and risk tools vary a lot between apps.
Platform guide
MetaTrader 4 is the long-standing retail standard for forex: fast charting, one-click trading and the largest library of Expert Advisors and custom indicators.
MetaTrader 5 adds more timeframes, an economic calendar, market depth and support for more asset classes. Its scripts are not compatible with MT4.
cTrader is known for a clean interface, advanced order types, depth of market and algorithmic trading in C#.
The browser-based terminal needs no installation and works on any device, which suits quick checks and light trading.
Having MetaTrader and cTrader on one broker is rare. I would use MetaTrader if I depend on Expert Advisors and cTrader for manual trading, because the order tools in cTrader are cleaner.
Judge a platform by its worst moment: a fast market, a stop order and a mobile screen. Demo-test that scenario rather than the pretty chart.
Markets and Products
The product range for FxPro is not listed in the published snapshot yet. Confirm the instruments you need before opening an account.
CFDs are complex, leveraged products. A large share of retail accounts lose money trading them, and you should only risk capital you can afford to lose.
If you want to own shares or ETFs outright for the long term, look for a broker that offers real asset ownership and compare custody and dealing costs, not only CFD spreads.
Without a published product list I would treat the range as unconfirmed. Ask which instruments are open to retail clients in your country.
Account Types & Conditions
Multiple account structures tailored to different trading strategies and volume levels.
Account types are not published in the research snapshot for this broker yet.
Choosing the right account
No individual account types are listed in the snapshot for FxPro. Available accounts, and their conditions, can differ by country.
FxPro publishes no minimum deposit, which lowers the entry barrier, although a practical balance for risk management is higher than zero.
The snapshot does not confirm swap-free accounts at FxPro. If you need one for religious or other reasons, ask the broker and get the terms in writing.
Choose the account by how you trade: a spread-only account is simpler for occasional trades, while a raw-spread account with commission usually becomes cheaper as volume rises.
A spread-only account is the easiest to understand and budget for. If you trade often, ask whether a lower-cost account type exists at FxPro.
Account Opening
Opening an account with FxPro follows the standard regulated-broker process: you choose an entity, verify your identity and complete a short assessment of your trading knowledge before trading is enabled.
Typical account opening steps
- Choose the legal entity or region that matches your country of residence.
- Create a profile with your email, phone number and tax residency.
- Complete the suitability or appropriateness questionnaire honestly.
- Upload a government ID and a recent proof of address.
- Accept the account agreement, risk disclosure and order execution policy after reading them.
- Fund the account and place a small test trade before sizing up.
For clients in the UK and EU, regulation requires an appropriateness assessment for complex products such as CFDs. Answer honestly: an inaccurate answer can limit your access or leave you with products that do not fit your experience.
Take your time with the risk questionnaire. It is not a hurdle to pass but a check that the account type fits you, and brokers can refuse an application that does not.
Deposit & Withdrawal Methods
Processing speed and payment gateways supported:
Payment methods, fees and processing times are not published in the research snapshot for this broker yet.
Funding and withdrawals in practice
Reminder: the published minimum deposit for FxPro is 0. Payment methods may have their own minimums on top.
Deposit options, speeds and fees can vary by country and by legal entity at FxPro. The table above shows the methods we have on record; the points below show how to avoid the usual surprises.
Funding checklist
- Fund with the method you can also withdraw to; most brokers send money back the way it came in.
- Check the cut-off times and the first-withdrawal verification rules before you deposit.
- Test a small withdrawal early so you know the real speed and cost.
- Use accounts in your own name only; third-party payments are routinely rejected.
The first withdrawal is the real test of a broker. Make a small one early, with the same method you used to deposit.
Leverage and Risk Controls
For UK and EU retail clients, leverage on major Forex pairs is generally limited to 1:30. Conditions for other jurisdictions and professional clients may differ.
Leverage magnifies gains and losses equally. Position size, stop-loss placement and margin close-out rules matter more than the leverage ratio itself.
Regulated leverage limits can feel restrictive, but they are there because most retail losses come from oversized positions. Treat the cap as a seat belt, not a handicap.
Order Execution
Execution quality is how close your fill is to the price you saw, and how reliably an order goes through when markets are busy. The snapshot gives us pricing; the points below explain what to test in live use.
What to watch in order execution
- Spreads widen around news releases, at the daily rollover and in thin markets.
- Slippage can work for or against you; fast markets make it more likely.
- Read the order execution policy for how requotes, partial fills and stop orders are handled.
If you use stop orders, read how FxPro handles gaps over the weekend. Guaranteed and non-guaranteed stops behave very differently.
Customer Support and Education
Support quality is hard to capture in a single number, so we describe how to test it for FxPro yourself. It matters most when something goes wrong, such as a rejected withdrawal or a platform error.
How we recommend testing support
- Ask a pre-sales question and note how long the first useful answer takes.
- Ask about the legal entity and licence you will be onboarded to.
- Ask for the written fee schedule, including withdrawal and inactivity charges.
- Check which languages and channels are available when markets are open.
Also look at what FxPro gives new clients: demo access, tutorials, market analysis and webinars. Good education shows a broker that expects clients to stay and improve, not just click.
Keep chat transcripts and emails. If a dispute ever reaches the regulator or an ombudsman, written evidence settles the question quickly.
Country Availability
Countries where FxPro accepts new clients in our checks (total 10) include: France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, United Arab Emirates, and United Kingdom.
Where FxPro accepts clients
Based on the country checks in the published snapshot. Always confirm eligibility in the broker's sign-up flow.
The checks also record countries where FxPro is restricted (total 1) or not available (total 4). Do not rely on a VPN or a relative's address: opening an account outside your country of residence can breach the terms.
Availability can differ by product and entity inside one country, and brokers update their lists. Use the table as a guide, then confirm in the sign-up form.
Wide country coverage lowers the risk that you can't use FxPro after moving. It does not mean identical terms everywhere, so read the entity details for your region.
Brokeli Score & Category Breakdown: FxPro
Category scores calculated from verified research snapshot metrics:
Bottom line
FxPro comes out as a strong option with a Brokeli score of 4.6 out of 5. It earns that through verified data, not marketing, though the best account for you still depends on your country and trading style.
The category that holds FxPro back is Fees. If that matters for the way you trade, weigh it first.
Its best category is Safety, so if that is your priority, FxPro deserves a place on the shortlist.
Next steps: compare FxPro with two similar brokers, confirm the legal entity for your country, and test with a small amount before scaling up.
