Our notes

Strengths
  • Low published minimum deposit of $10 on both MT4 accounts
  • The terms say negative balances are reset to zero once an account has no open positions
  • Margin call (100%) and stop-out (20%) levels are published
  • Swap-free status is available on all accounts, plus copy trading and a free VPS for automated trading
  • 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
  • Investizo does not claim a licence from any financial regulator. Its company is registered in St Vincent and the Grenadines, which is a company registration, not a licence. Its own roadmap says it plans to apply for an FSC Mauritius licence in late 2027
  • The Securities Commission Malaysia added Investizo to its Investor Alert List of unauthorised entities on 20 December 2024.
  • Leverage up to 1:1000, or 1:2000 on forex with a promo code, and the terms let the company change your leverage at any time without prior notice
  • The fee pages disagree: the terms say no withdrawal fees, but the payments page lists 5.5% + $4 on card withdrawals. Typical spreads and the ECN commission per lot are not fully published
  • 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:

  • Investizo: CFDs are complex financial products traded on margin. Trading CFDs is risky and may not be suitable for all investors. Ensure you understand the risks involved as you may lose all your invested capital.
  • 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.
