Our notes

Strengths
  • FIBO Group, Ltd. is listed by the BVI FSC as a currently regulated investment business (dealing as agent and principal, arranging deals)
  • Wide choice of platforms and accounts, including cent accounts that open from 1 cent
  • Spreads from 0 pips on NDD accounts with commission charged as a percentage of trade value
  • No minimum deposit on any account, and cent accounts for very small trade sizes
  • Negative balance protection, and client money held separately from company money
  • Copy trading (Share4you) and PAMM accounts on top of MT4 and MT5
Watch out for
  • The BVI licence is offshore and there is no compensation scheme
  • We found no negative balance protection or client money segregation commitment in the customer agreement; it lets FIBO cover a negative balance from your other accounts
  • Leverage up to 1:5000 on the MT5 Cent account
  • FIBO's former Cyprus company no longer appears on CySEC's list of investment firms; EU clients have no EU-licensed FIBO company
  • Only an offshore licence (BVI FSC); no FCA, ASIC, CySEC or similar licence
  • Says Trade4you International holds Mauritius FSC licence GB21026460; we could not confirm it on the FSC Mauritius register on 2026-10-20, because the register blocked our access
  • Leverage up to 1:4000 and stop-outs at 20% (10% on cent accounts) can wipe out an account fast
  • Spreads are published only as "from" figures

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:

  • FIBO Group: Forex trading involves significant risk, including the potential loss of all invested funds. It may not be suitable for everyone. Please assess your risk tolerance carefully.
  • Markets4you: Trading complex financial instruments on the Over-the-Counter (OTC) market carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. There is a possibility of losing all your invested capital. Increasing your leverage magnifies both potential gains and losses. Past performance is not indicative of future results. The Company does not issue advice, recommendations or opinion in relation to acquiring, holding or disposing of OTC derivatives. All services are provided on an execution only basis. We strongly recommend that you seek independent financial advice to ensure that these products fit your investment objectives and financial situation. Only trade with funds you can afford to lose without affecting your standard of living.

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.
