Our notes

Strengths
  • Licensed by strict regulators in the US, UK, EU, Canada, Australia, Singapore and Japan
  • No minimum account balance and no deposit or withdrawal fees on the UK site
  • Guaranteed stop-loss orders available in the UK (for a fee)
  • Low entry point, with a Standard account from $1 (most payment methods need at least $15)
  • Publishes margin call and stop-out levels and lists negative balance protection on every account
  • Choice of MetaTrader 5 and cTrader
Watch out for
  • Clients outside the countries with a local OANDA company may be placed with OANDA Global Markets Ltd, which holds only an offshore licence from the BVI FSC
  • UK inactivity fee after 12 months without trading, up to £20 a month
  • The NFA's BASIC record for OANDA Corporation lists past NFA and CFTC regulatory actions; read them there before you open a US account
  • Says it operates under FSC Mauritius; we could not find any Vittaverse company on the FSC Mauritius register on 2026-10-20, and the site gives no licence number
  • The client agreement is with Vittaverse Ltd, registered in St Vincent and the Grenadines (26879 BC 2022); that is a company registration, not a licence
  • No licence from any regulator that we could confirm
  • Leverage up to 1:2000 and deposit bonuses on the Standard account

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:

  • OANDA: CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. 76.6% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs with this provider. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money.
  • Vittaverse: Trading in financial products involves a high degree of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. Leveraged trading can amplify both gains and losses. You may lose some or all of your invested capital, and in certain circumstances, losses may exceed your initial deposit. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Please ensure you fully 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.
