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
  • Trending Markets (International) Ltd is on the FSC Mauritius register as an investment dealer (SEC-2.1B), licensed since 28 October 2025
  • One simple account from $10, with a published $3 commission per lot
  • No Trendo fees on deposits or withdrawals, with a $10 minimum per transaction
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
  • Some clients are served by Trendo LLC in Armenia (registration 271.110.1214359); Trendo shows a company registration and charter update for it, and does not cite a financial licence
  • Leverage up to 1:2000 and deposit bonuses that come with trading conditions
  • We found no document setting out where client money is held or whether you have negative balance protection
  • Proprietary platform only; no MetaTrader

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.
  • Trendo: Forex and CFD trading are complex instruments and come with a high risk of rapid capital loss due to leverage. A significant percentage of retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs. You should consider whether you understand how these instruments work and whether you can afford to take the high risk associated with CFD trading. Trade responsibly: always consider your investment objectives, experience level, and risk appetite. If needed, seek advice from an independent financial advisor.

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.
