Watch out for look-alike sites
We have not recorded any look-alike sites for OneRoyal. That does not mean none exist.
A clone firm copies a real broker’s name, licence number and branding to take deposits. The register shows the genuine firm, so the surest check is the contact details: if the website, email or phone number you were given is not the one on the register, treat it as a clone.

Cost per lot = typical EUR/USD spread × $10 + round-turn commission, for one standard lot (100,000 units) in busy hours. Swap and other fees are extra. Trading costs explained
Leverage and margin
Leverage lets you open a position bigger than your deposit, so losses grow as fast as gains. The caps below are the most OneRoyal allows; you can always use less.
20%When your equity falls to 20% of your used margin, the platform starts closing your trades, usually the biggest loser first, until the level recovers.

Overview
OneRoyal is the trading name of the Royal Group, which says it has served traders since 2006. It offers forex, metals, shares, indices, energies, ETFs and crypto CFDs on MetaTrader 4 and 5, with four variable-spread accounts, fixed-spread accounts, copy trading and PAMM.
Regulation and safety
The group uses four companies:
Royal Financial Trading (Cy) Ltd holds CySEC licence 312/16, shown on the CySEC register since 10 August 2016. EU clients use oneroyal.eu.
Royal Financial Trading Pty Ltd holds ASIC licence 420268. ASIC’s licensee data shows it is limited to wholesale clients.
Royal ETP LLC is registered in St Vincent (149LLC2019). Its client agreement says it is authorised by the FSA there, but St Vincent registers companies and does not license forex brokers.
Retail clients of oneroyal.com outside the EU therefore deal with an offshore company. OneRoyal’s abuse page lists websites it says copy its brand, and names oneroyal.eu as its official site. Our broker regulation guide and scams guide explain how to check.
Costs
Classic and Cent have no commission and spreads from 1.4 pips. ECN quotes from 0 pips plus $3.50 per side ($7 a round lot); Prime charges $1.75 per side. Typical spreads are not published. See forex trading costs.
Platforms and tools
MetaTrader 4 and 5, MultiTerminal and VPS hosting are available, along with AI signal tools and Autochartist. See MT4 vs MT5.
Deposits and withdrawals
OneRoyal says it charges no deposit or withdrawal fees and covers some bank fees on larger deposits. Fees do apply if you trade less than 2 lots after a deposit, and currency conversion costs up to 3%. Card withdrawals can only return the amount you deposited by card; profits go out by bank wire or another method. Third-party payments are not accepted.
Who it may suit
EU residents who want CySEC rules can use oneroyal.eu. The low minimums on oneroyal.com suit small accounts, but those clients sign with an offshore company. Check the company in your agreement on our check a broker page.

OneRoyal: common questions
Is OneRoyal regulated?
Yes, through several companies. Royal Financial Trading (Cy) Ltd is licensed by CySEC (312/16), Royal Financial Trading Pty Ltd holds ASIC licence 420268 for wholesale clients, and Royal CM Limited holds a VFSC financial dealers licence. Royal ETP LLC is registered in St Vincent, which is not a licence.
Which company will I join?
EU and EEA residents join the CySEC company through oneroyal.eu. International clients of oneroyal.com sign with Royal ETP LLC (St Vincent) or Royal CM Limited (Vanuatu).
What is the minimum deposit?
From $5 on Classic and ECN, $10 on Cent and $5,000 on Prime. The minimum may vary by payment method and country.
Can I lose more than I deposit?
OneRoyal lists negative balance protection on all its accounts. Leverage up to 1:1000 on oneroyal.com still means your balance can be lost quickly.
