FxPro UK Review
Latest Trading conditions UK Traders
!! Regulator Warning !!
CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. 84% 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.
Great mobile app you got there FxPro!!! They offer really nice services and they keep evolving to stay ahead of the curve
Their FxPro Edge Web Platform is excellent; it lets me analyze charts on the 10-Minute time frame and I wasn't able to do this on TradingView without being asked to pay for it.
They have everything going for them, but they ruined it with their high spread. They should introduce more account types with lower spread or they should introduce a cent account. During the Asian session they increase their spread up to 100% which is bad.
Their spreads are horrible, very high spreads which are not even stable
FxPro is a financially strong and reliable broker that provides various trade execution options, giving traders assurance about the security of their funds.
No, thanks ! the spread is too high. FxPro is charging spread from 1.4 pips but my new broker TD365 charges 0.3 pip spread
FxPro is not good for scalpers cos spreads are high but if you are a swing trader then its an excellent broker with unlimited leverage
Unreliable when it comes to withdrawal speed. Overall they are a good broker with honest trading conditions and low entry/starting deposit for those with little capital
Everything about Fxpro is good but the spreads are high, the solution? if you do not have a trading strategy that yields consistent profit, dont trade with FxPro but if you have an edge that works profitably then fxpro is the best since the spreads wont matter
I opened an account with fxpro after reading the reviews i saw here, and i have not been disappointed. First thing i noticed was the trading platforms which are so user friendly then the customer support is also good especially on whatsapp. They contact you before you contact them once they notice you had an issue
I like fxpro for one thing- they are so organized. Their client area is so easy to navigate and everything is displayed and arranged properly. The best feature for me is the fxpro wallet which helps me manage my cash and save money which i am not using for trading so i dont get confused. I dont care if the spreads are a bit higher the user experience is more important to me.
excellent mobile app with an economic calendar powered by artificial intelligence. FxPro is not your average broker, they take it to the next level!!!
I like the withdrawal process at fxpro, all pending withdrawals are displayed on your screen and they do not disappear until the money is in your bank account. That way, you can keep track of your pending withdrawals without hassle
FxPro is a great forex broker if you are in Nigeria, their N5,000 minimum deposit and N100 minimum withdrawal is rare in the forex industry.
Smoothest broker I have ever used!!! Everything is so organized, personal area is detailed and easy to make deposit and withdrawals mobile app is stable, charts dont freeze, beginner education is comprehensive, I can go on and on. I love FxPro
The spreads are too high!!! My gosh some times you see as high as 2 pips on the EUR/USD its too much. They need to cut these ridiculous spreads asap
such a versatile broker and I have no regrets using Fxpro yes there have been ups and downs but the good outweighs the bad. The customer service is royal and there is no minimum withdrawal limitation so my withdrawals come anytime i demand
FxPro makes me happy, okay I agree their spreads are on the high side because I have seen lower spreads with other brokers but the overall trading experience is premium and not something you get from every broker. Their range of markets is extensive, platforms are stable & support is top notch
I just opened an account with FxPro because I heard they now offer unlimited leverage. I must confess fxPro is an amazing broker with state of the art systems and platforms. I was particularly pleased with the fxpro wallet and the low $5 minimum deposit
In Nigeria they are not very popular but ever since they introduced naira account and N5,000 promo account friend asked me to try them and I have been impressed. They do not manipulate spreads and I like that about them.
