Trade.com Review

A multi-asset, multi-regulated broker with a broad instrument range and tiered accounts.

Our verdict

Trade.com brings CySEC, FCA and FSCA regulation together with a genuinely broad multi-asset range and MT4/MT5 support. A solid, well-rounded choice — its entry-tier spreads are its main trade-off.

Strengths

  • Multi-jurisdiction regulation: CySEC, FCA, FSCA and FSC Mauritius.
  • Broad multi-asset range — 2,100+ across forex, shares, indices, commodities, crypto, ETFs and bonds.
  • Choice of MT4, MT5 and a proprietary web platform.
  • Segregated client funds; EU Investor Compensation Fund cover up to €20,000.
  • Low US$100 minimum deposit.

Considerations

  • Entry-tier (Silver) EUR/USD spreads are wide (~1.9 pips) versus low-cost rivals.
  • Best conditions and premium analytics are gated behind higher-deposit tiers.
  • Educational resources are relatively limited.
  • Non-EU/UK clients are onboarded under the offshore Mauritius entity, with weaker protections.

Regulation & fund safety

Trade.com (operated by the Leadcapital / Trade Capital Markets group) is authorised by four regulators, led by EU CySEC and the UK's FCA. EU clients benefit from Investor Compensation Fund cover; the entity you trade under depends on your residence.

Trading costs

Cost is where Trade.com asks the most patience: entry-tier Silver EUR/USD spreads start around 1.9 pips, well above raw-spread specialists, and the tightest conditions sit in higher-deposit tiers. Pricing is spread-based with no separate commission on standard accounts.

Platforms & range

Trade.com supports MT4, MT5 and its own web platform across a wide, genuinely multi-asset catalogue of 2,100+ instruments — from forex and shares to ETFs and bonds.

Who it's for

Suits multi-asset traders who value regulation and range across one account, and who fund at a higher tier for better pricing. Cost-focused scalpers will find tighter spreads elsewhere.
