Our notes

Strengths
  • Licensed by ASIC, the FCA and CySEC, all strict regulators
  • Published commissions per currency on the Premium account (for example $4.50 or €4.00 per standard contract)
  • Bank transfers and payments under US$50,000 a month are free to deposit
  • Royal Financial Trading (Cy) Ltd holds CySEC licence 312/16, confirmed on the CySEC register, for EU clients
  • Says client money is held in segregated client accounts, and lists negative balance protection on every account
  • Low entry point ($5) with published commissions on ECN and Prime accounts
  • Publishes a list of clone websites that use its name
Watch out for
  • International clients join AxiTrader LLC, a St Vincent and the Grenadines company (4303 LLC 2025) that is registered, not licensed; its risk warning says you can lose substantially more than your initial investment.
  • Axi publishes minimum spreads only, not typical spreads
  • The St Vincent company charges a monthly inactivity fee after 12 months and may charge US$25 for withdrawals under US$50
  • The FSCA's OTC derivative provider list shows AxiCorp Financial Services Pty Ltd's application as Withdrawn, so Axi has no South African licence we could confirm.
  • International clients of oneroyal.com sign with Royal ETP LLC (St Vincent) or Royal CM Limited (Vanuatu), both offshore; St Vincent registration is not a licence
  • The ASIC licence (AFSL 420268) covers wholesale clients only
  • Leverage up to 1:1000 and deposit bonuses on oneroyal.com
  • Withdrawal fees apply if you have traded less than 2 lots since your last deposit

Risk warnings

The buttons to a broker’s website above the table are partner links: we may earn a commission if you open an account through them. That never changes the facts shown here. Trading leveraged products such as forex and CFDs carries a high risk of losing money rapidly, and most retail accounts lose money. Each broker’s own warning:

  • Axi: Over-the-counter derivatives are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing substantially more than your initial investment rapidly due to leverage. You should consider whether you understand how over-the-counter derivatives work and whether you can afford to take the high level of risk to your capital.
  • OneRoyal: Online trading in leveraged Foreign Exchange and CFD instruments carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. Leveraged trading can result in significant losses as well as potential profits. Before deciding to invest in margin instruments, carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. You should not risk more than you can afford to lose. Always ensure you understand the risks involved and seek independent financial advice if necessary.

Other head-to-head pages

Cost per lot is the typical EUR/USD spread in busy hours × $10, plus any round-turn commission, for one standard lot. “Not yet checked” means we have not confirmed that fact yet. This page compares facts; it does not rank the brokers or recommend either. Confirm costs and licences on each broker’s site and the regulator’s public register before opening an account: see how we review brokers and check a broker yourself.
