I love the fact that they offer Raw spreads which are my favorite
I have had no problems trading with them. It all works well. There is a little bit of lag but this isn't a problem unless you are a very short term trader which I am mostly not.
Really pathetic I'm not able to connect my account to trading view. Contacted them several time but they are unresponsive and not cooperative. If you face an issue don't expect the resolution.
Very useful with RAW account. Small spreads. As Tradingview account you experience expensive jokes by their marketmaker and slow execution when using market order. Pls work with limit orders only ! Recent problems with data transfers in April and June 2026 has been resolved. Today, 17.08.2026, again no connection around noon at GMT+1.
FP Markets is superb, very free and flexible. Only big problem is that the subscription is too high at USD40 minimum. It's such a disadvantage to many people. Please revise that consider USD20 or USD10 for minimum deposit into our accounts. We're already members so don't restrict activity by that deterrent 40.
This is the worst broker I have ever used. I have experienced problems logging in, and my order history has disappeared from time to time. When I contacted customer support by email, they were unable to explain why this was happening. I have also had difficulties placing trades. I would not recommend this broker to an

A quite good cTrader ECN broker, one of the best IMO, lowest spreads for US indices, low fees, high leverage, very good support, they let you customize the type of your account where others not (hedge, netting)... BUT... Their TradingView interconnection are one of the worsts of them. Lot's of days they experience huge latency or at NY open it could be even more than a second just to open, close or move your orders. Hope they fix this soon....

These guys are hopeless. I have been using this broker for about 4 months now.
They have cost me in the order of 200K AUD.
This comes from connection on Tradingview just logging you off, mid trade. It stops printing candles then just cuts you off. Nothing worse. This has happened twice. Costing me roughly 80k and has literally happened again right now. Terrific work guys.
The other part that I emailed them about the other day is the spreads. They are widening spreads for unknown reasons on traders. I copy trade across accounts because I dont trust any single broker and recently Ive had multiple occasions where a worker has stopped me out at break even and FP Markets has tagged me for 18k USD each time.
I also opened a trade the other day and was instantly 110k AUD down front the spreads. If you are a trader trying to do this for a living. These guys are a hard avoid unfortunately.
No refunds have been offered even though I have WhatsApp messages from their staff saying we will refund it all In full... shameful.
Thank you for your feedback. We have carefully reviewed the specific trades referenced. In both instances, the spreads observed at the time of execution were consistent with conditions in the underlying aluminium futures market.
At the times referenced, spreads on XAL/USD widened in line with the underlying aluminium futures market, as confirmed by our liquidity providers. The position sizes involved were significantly larger than the available market depth, meaning orders were executed across limited liquidity, this can result in wider spreads and price impact.
We also found no evidence of any platform disruption. Pricing, execution, and stop-loss triggers functioned as expected under those market conditions.
We appreciate that these conditions may not align with your expectations; however, they are inherent to trading certain instruments, particularly during periods of reduced liquidity. We strongly encourage monitoring Depth of Market (DoM) and underlying market conditions when placing larger trades.
If you have any additional details you would like us to review further, we are happy to assist.

Frequently asked questions
Brokers provide access to financial markets and execute trades. They act as intermediaries between traders and exchanges, providing the necessary infrastructure and tools to place buy and sell orders. They offer services such as order execution, market access, research, analysis, and customer support. Additionally, brokers facilitate the use of leverage, margin trading, and help ensure regulatory compliance, providing traders with a secure environment to trade effectively. Without brokers, individual traders would struggle to access markets and execute trades efficiently.
An order is an instruction for a broker to execute a trade - buy or sell an asset on behalf of a trader. Depending on your strategy, risk tolerance, and market condition, different kinds of orders can be more or less effective, let's see the basic ones.
- Market order. It's a basic type designed to buy or sell an asset immediately at the next price available
- Limit order. Specifies the maximum (for buying) or minimum (for selling) price at which a trader is willing to execute a trade. It's only executed if the price reaches the preset level. There are buy and sell limit orders - they're set to buy/sell an asset at or below/above a certain price
- Stop order. Triggered when an asset moves above or below a certain price level, always executed in the direction that the price is moving. There are stop-loss orders (automatically closes a position at a certain level if the market moves against you) and (initiates a trade when the price breaks a certain level)

A broker's rating on TradingView is based on its clients' reviews. We ensure broker ratings reflect real user experiences by allowing reviews only from verified TradingView users with active linked accounts. Recent ratings carry more weight, providing up-to-date insights for informed decisions. This approach promotes transparency and prevents manipulation.

Leverage is a mechanism that allows traders to open larger positions with a smaller amount of capital. It basically means borrowing funds from a broker, often multiplying your position size by 5x, 10x, or more. For example, with 5x leverage, a $100 deposit could open a $500 trade with your broker lending you $400 you don't have. It's a popular technique, but remember that while leverage increases potential profits, it also magnifies losses, which is why it's essential to learn how to manage risks.
It's always worth preparing for trades before actually executing them. On TradingView, you can do this with our Paper Trading functionality.

Margin trading means an investor buying an asset by borrowing the balance from a broker. It allows traders to increase their buying power, enabling larger positions with less upfront capital. While it can provide greater market exposure with less capital and amplify potential gains, it also comes with increased risks:
- Increased risk of losses, including exceeding initial investment
- Interest costs on borrowed funds
- Potential for margin calls requiring additional deposits
Make sure to analyze an asset thoroughly and test your strategy on a Paper Trading account to ensure you're ready to navigate these risks.
