InstaForex is a large and global online brokerage established in 2007. Although the team and top management is mainly Russian, the broker is today registered and regulated in several offshore jurisdictions around the world, including the EU jurisdiction of Cyprus. It offers very high trading leverage of up to 1:1,000 in the entities regulated outside of Europe, which fortunately also accept European traders.
InstaForex maintains a large number of so-called introducing brokers around the world. These are independent companies that receive commissions for all trading activity generated by the clients they introduce to the broker. Currently, InstaForex claims it has 260 such offices spread out around the world, providing a steady flow of new clients to the broker.
The broker offers a special “ForexCopy System” where inexperienced traders can choose to automatically copy the trades made by more experienced traders with good track records. The traders to follow can be chosen based on 20 searchable criteria, and the copy-trading set-up can be cancelled at any time.
Another unique benefit with InstaForex is the large video library available on its website as part of its “InstaForex TV” initiative. Here, traders can watch interviews with leading trading experts from around the world, technical analysis gurus, and others to get inspired and learn more about profiting from forex and other financial markets.
The trading instruments offered by InstaForex include all the usual things, plus a few extras. The selection of forex pairs is particularly good with this broker, with more than 110 currency pairs available to choose from, which is far more than most other brokers. In addition, the broker offers CFDs based on the stocks of more than 90 American companies, 5 cryptocurrency pairs, as well as commodities and stock indices CFDs.
In contrast to many other brokers these days, InstaForex also offers binary options based on a variety of underlying assets for traders who prefer that method of trading.
In order to trade binary options, however, clients will need to use the InstaBinary platform. This is a web-based trading platform that runs directly in the user’s web browser window, which means there is no need to download any software. The platform is developed by InstaForex to meet the needs of binary options traders in particular, and comes with nice and clean charts for easy trading.
Another trading platform developed by InstaForex is WebIFX. This platform also runs directly in the trader’s browser, and can be used to trade both forex and CFDs on a range of assets. The platform is well-designed, with a minimalistic and simple look, and with charts from the popular charting service TradingView.
In addition to these trading platforms, the MetaTrader 4 (MT4) platform is also available for traders who prefer to stick with this classic trading platform which has stood the test of time in the retail trading community. Update: InstaForex has also added the MetaTrader 5 platform in 2020.
InstaForex offers four different account types for clients to choose from based on their individual needs:
– Insta.Standard Account, with wide spreads and no commissions
– Insta.Eurica Account, with no spreads and commissions from 0.03%-0.07%
– Cent.Standard Account, designed for new traders and with wide spreads
– Cent.Eurica Account, for new traders with tight spreads and commission-based trading
Lastly, customer service is available 24 hours a day, with local phone numbers for nine countries, as well as through popular apps like Telegram, WhatsApp, Skype, and others channels.

This is Gertrude, one of the official representative of InstaForex. In behalf of InstaForex, we would like to thank you for giving us a very satisfactory rate. We will continue to provide an excellent service, have a good day :)
Recently I have joined in the forex market with InstaForex. They gave me some bonus money for trading in a live account. It helps me to trade without any investment in a risky market. I have used the android mobile trader platform, here I have enjoyed their tight spreads and all of my positions are executed in a moment. Now I have gained some profit in forex trading, so I am confident and decided to invest more than 50 dollars to withdrawal my profit. I have seen InstaForex has many international awards in the market, so I think they are reliable and I want to thanks them for giving me this kind of opportunity in the market.
Currently, I have a cent account at Instaforex. This was only recommended to me by a friend and since someone I know is already a client, I just decided to choose this broker. Luckily, I made the right decision. I am having a pleasant experience at Instaforex with their tight spread, stable platform, approachable customer support representatives, and abundant learning materials. So far, I have a 5% profit rate and it is good enough for me considering that I am only a beginner.
