Set up with offices in Cyprus and Vanuatu, FXCC is a forex broker founded all the way back in 2010. As most retail-oriented forex brokers, FXCC operates on a ‘no dealing desk’ ECN/STP model where orders are passed on to larger liquidity pools rather than being matched internally.
As with all brokers in Cyprus, FXCC is regulated by the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC), a national securities regulator under the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA). As a result, all trading conditions offered by FXCC Cyprus follow EU regulations. Among other things, this means that leverage can be no higher than 1:30 for any instrument.
Meanwhile, the Vanuatu-based branch of the broker remains an option for traders outside of Europe. Here, leverage can go as high as 1:500, the long-standing industry standard among offshore forex brokers.
Worth keeping in mind, however, is that regulations in Vanuatu are much weaker than in Europe. This means that clients may be left without much help in the event a broker goes out of business or deposits are otherwise lost.
In terms of trading instruments offered, FXCC has a selection of about 70 forex pairs, in addition to a handful of cryptocurrencies, stock indices and commodities, all of which are traded as CFDs. The broker does not offer any single stocks or bonds, which is something we believe some traders will miss.
Before signing up with FXCC, all new clients need to choose which type of trading account they want to use. The broker has three choices here: ECN Standard Account, ECN XL Account, and ECN Advanced Account.
The main thing that separates these accounts is the minimum deposit required to use them, and the number of instruments that can be traded. The ECN Standard Account is available for deposits of between USD 10,000 and 100,000 and offers 30 instruments, the ECN XL Account is available for deposits of between USD 100 and 10,000 and also gives access to 30 instruments, and the ECN Advanced Account is available for deposits of more than USD 100,000 and offers more than 200 instruments.
All trading accounts can be denominated in either USD, EUR, or GBP.
As is the case with many forex brokers, the only trading platform that FXCC’s clients can use is the MetaTrader 4 (MT4). However, this remains probably the most popular platform in the world today among retail forex traders. A key reason for that is the huge selection of automated trading strategies (Expert Advisors) and custom indicators that are available inside the platform’s built-in marketplace.
To fund a new trading account with FXCC, clients can use either a traditional bank wire transfer or any one of a number of e-wallet services such as Skrill, Sofort, Neteller, and others. There is a “zero deposit fee” promotion in place for users of the accepted funding methods at the time of writing.
For customer service needs, all FXCC clients are welcome to contact the broker via either live chat, email or phone (a Cyprus phone number for EU users and a UK number for international users). Customer service is available 24 hours a day, Monday to Friday.
In conclusion, FXCC is a broker that we believe could be a good option for traders both in the EU and elsewhere who trade mainly forex and like the MT4 platform. The broker offers high leverage for international traders, which is something many people are looking for. It also offers crypto trading with CFDs, although unfortunately deposits and withdrawals cannot be done with crypto.
Pretty good broker. Stable platfrom and nice amount of assets.
The list of FXCC assets is impressive! And you know what's even more impressive? It's the leverage on almost all of them. 1:500 for all the instruments, excluding cryptos, is a cool thing that allows me to make substantial profits with limited funds allocation.
If FXCC had a web version of the trading platform, then this broker would be perfect. Still on the whole I am satisfied.
One of the best brokers around, if you ask me. Especially if you are in the beginning phase of your journey, and you need a trading platform which is not going to bankrupt you with spreads and comms.
It's cool that I can manage other accounts using this broker with the multi-account managing feature. It has very flexible settings so that I'm not bothered about the deposit amounts of my clients. Since I have several of them, and each one has his own funding capabilities.
I think FXCC has the best spreads in the market, especially on the major currency pairs. And since I am trading majors and crosses for the most part, it is the best broker for me 100%. Also the ability to scalp with trading bots and VPS makes it even better.
The broker offers good trading conditions. It's very simple – no fees and good spreads.
I can name the Fxcc advantages for the whole day. All I would say is that it’s one of the most credible brokers on the market right now. And on top of that it doesn't charge additional commissions for that.
Honestly, this broker suits me a lot. Yeah, they have some drawbacks, but who doesn't. The fact they provide quality services can't be argued.
In addition to the concept of zero minimum deposit, the broker has some of the lowest spreads in the market. For some currency pairs, the difference can go as low as 0.0-0.1. I don’t know how it could be lower than that. Even with such low spreads, FXCC does not include trading commissions. Excellent broker.
Great number of tradable products and handy trading platform - everything I need to work :)
What an excellent broker who cares about its customers! This care is shown even through company's services. Starting with customer data and money protection and up to customer support service.
Suppose that the access to opening corporate account is a cool feature. Don't want to test it out, but hope it's useful.
As a scalper I got used to trade on ECN XL. I like the fact that this account contains tons of various features, which generally divided between several accs. In case we are talking about other brokers.
