Websites
Official websites
✓trendo.com
Type the address yourself or use a bookmark. Check it matches the website listed for the firm on the regulator’s register.
Watch out for look-alike sites
We have not recorded any look-alike sites for Trendo. 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. Check a broker step by step
Accounts and costs
Account types and costs not yet checked.
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 Trendo allows; you can always use less.
100%When your equity falls to 100% of the margin your open trades use, you get a warning and usually cannot open new trades.
Stop-out
70%When your equity falls to 70% of your used margin, the platform starts closing your trades, usually the biggest loser first, until the level recovers.
Margin level = equity ÷ used margin × 100. Without negative balance protection, a fast market can gap past the stop-out and leave you owing money. Work out your margin level

Overview
Trendo offers CFDs on forex, gold, crypto and stocks through its own app, desktop program and web trader. It has one live account type (Real), plus demo, Islamic, PAMM, copy trading and bonus accounts. The website is published in several languages, including Persian, Arabic and Turkish.
Regulation and safety
The website names the operator as TRENDING MARKETS (INTERNATIONAL) LTD, registered in Mauritius under number 227756. The FSC Mauritius register lists that company with an SEC-2.1B investment dealer licence dated 28 October 2025, at the address Trendo gives. The register does not show licence numbers; Trendo gives GB25205094. The licensing page also calls the company “Trendo Ltd”, a trade name.
Trendo also lists Trendo LLC in Yerevan, Armenia, and says some clients are served through it. What it shows for Armenia is a company registration and a charter update; it does not cite a financial services licence for that company. FSC Mauritius is a mid-tier regulator; see our broker regulation guide.
Costs
The Real account quotes spreads from 0 pips plus $3 commission per lot. Trendo does not publish typical spreads, so the real cost per trade is hard to compare. Swaps apply unless you switch to the Islamic account. The trading costs guide shows what to check.
Platforms and tools
Trading happens on Trendo’s own platform, on phone, desktop and web, with an economic calendar and charting built in. There is no MetaTrader. If you rely on MT4 or MT5 tools, read MT4 vs MT5 first.
Deposits and withdrawals
Trendo accepts Visa, Mastercard and several cryptocurrencies, and charges no fee of its own. Withdrawals need identity checks and go back through the methods you used to deposit. Each deposit or withdrawal must be at least $10. Payments may be processed by TrendoPay Services Ltd, a Cyprus company acting as payment agent. Crypto deposits earn a 10% bonus that cannot be transferred.
Who it may suit
The single account and $10 minimum are simple to understand. Very high leverage and bonus offers make it easy to take on too much risk. Ask which company will hold your money, and check its licence on our check a broker page.
