Comprehensive review

Established in 2018, Hankotrade is an offshore forex & CFD broker registered in the offshore jurisdiction known as the Comoros Union, and with a physical office in Dubai in the UAE. The broker offers a wide selection of forex pairs for trading, as well as high trading leverage. Also special about this broker is that it relies exclusively on cryptocurrencies for funding trading accounts, with no other funding methods accepted.

Although Hankotrade is based entirely on crypto deposits and withdrawals, trading accounts are not denominated in crypto, but instead in either USD, EUR, or CAD. This means that there will always be a conversion between the crypto a user chooses to fund his account with, and the fiat currency the account is denominated in, whenever inbound transfers are received.

Unfortunately, however, detailed information about the exchange rates used for these necessary conversions are missing from the broker's website.

At the time of this writing, the cryptocurrencies that are accepted by Hankotrade as funding methods are Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Litecoin (LTC), Tether (USDT), and Bitcoin Cash (BCH).

In terms of instruments available for trading, we already mentioned that Hankotrade has a fairly good selection of forex pairs that traders can choose from. When it comes to other assets, however, the selection is much more limited, with only a handful of commodities, a few cryptocurrencies, and ten stock indices to trade in. This stands in contrast to many other offshore brokers, who often offer everything from single stocks to interest rates, bonds, and a wide range of commodities to their users.

Out of the four stock indices offered by Hankotrade, three are popular American equity indices, while the fourth is the German DAX index.

As its trading platform, Hankotrade offers its own system known as Hanko ActTrader. The platform is well-designed, works with the broker's full range of trading assets, and supports advanced technical analysis tools. The platform is also easy enough for even beginners to use, given new solutions such as the “interactive risk management” module.

The platform is available in its standard downloadable version for Windows computers, as well as in a web version for use on any type of computer, and as mobile versions for Apple and Android mobile devices.

Once signed up, new clients at Hankotrade can choose between a standard STP account with commission-free trading, an ECN account for commission-based trading with tighter spreads, an ECN Plus account with even lower commissions and tight spreads, or a swap-free account designed especially for Muslim traders. The STP account comes with a minimum deposit requirement of USD 10, the ECN account USD 100, and the ECN Plus USD 1,000.

Like nearly all brokers we have reviewed here on FX-List, Hankotrade offers customer service via a live chat function on the website that appears to actually be live most of the time. However, the broker has not published any opening hours for their support department, which in our view is a bit unfortunate. The broker also has not disclosed any phone number that users can call in case of problems, which we also think should be expected of any serious forex broker.

According to its published terms of use, Hankotrade accepts clients from all countries, except the UK and some highly sanctioned countries and regions.
