DeltaFX vs FP Markets

Our notes

Strengths
  • Five account types with published margin call and stop-out levels
  • Swap-free versions of every account
  • Low minimum deposit ($50) on most accounts
  • Licensed by ASIC and CySEC, with retail client money held separately from company funds
  • Publishes average spreads per account (EUR/USD 1.29 pips Standard, 0.19 pips Raw)
  • Wide platform choice, including cTrader and TradingView
Watch out for
  • Not listed as regulated here: its Anjouan (AOFA) licence L16182/DFX shows as active on AOFA's own register, but the Central Bank of the Comoros has said AOFA is not recognised and cannot issue financial licences.
  • Its only licence is from the Anjouan Offshore Finance Authority (AOFA). On 8 December 2025 the Central Bank of the Comoros said AOFA is not recognised in the Union of the Comoros and has no legal power to issue financial licences.
  • AOFA's verification page lists company number 16183 (DeltaFX's site says 16182), incorporation on 20 October 2025 and a licence end date of 20 October 2026.
  • Commission rates on the commission-based accounts are not published on the account pages
  • Leverage up to 1:1000 and no published negative balance protection
  • The international website is operated by FP Markets Ltd, a Saint Lucia company (registration 2025-00853) that holds no financial licence; check which company your client agreement names.
  • International clients may be placed with the Seychelles company (offshore tier), with leverage up to 1:500 and no compensation scheme
  • Says FP Markets (Pty) Ltd is an FSCA-authorised financial services provider (FSP 50926); we could not confirm it on the FSCA register on 2026-10-20 because the register could not be reached.

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:

  • FP Markets: Derivative products are highly leveraged, carry a high level of risk and may not be appropriate for all investors. The legal documents should be considered before entering into transactions with us.

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.

Nothing on this page is financial advice. Read the full disclaimer.
