IFC Markets Broker Review

IFC Markets is Cypriot Forex broker with regulation from the British Virgin Islands, which is a strange setup – as most Cypriot Forex brokers are regulated by CySEC. Why IFC Markets is not regulated by CySEC is unclear, though its sister company has held CySEC regulation since 2011.

It offers two simple account types, one with a very low minimum deposit is expressly aimed at beginners, and traders can choose between fixed or floating spreads; fixed spreads start from 1.8 pips while floating spreads can get as low as 0.4 pips. IFC supports both MT4 and MT5 as well as its own NetTradeX trading platform and provides a good amount of education and market analysis for new traders.
