Trading with them will be safer and prevent us from scam brokers. As you may know, the forex market is really dangerous and complicated. There, scam brokers can cheat you and steal your money anytime, even though you are experienced traders. They will let you win more at first so that you will deposit more after that, and then they can get more. Hence, be careful if you win too much at the beginning. Note that the more you win, the more you will be wild. That’s one of the reasons leading to your loss.
- ARE THEY SUITABLE FOR ALL TRADERS?
As you may see, the above brokers are US and European ones, so they will be good choices for you in case you live in these countries. If you live in the rest of the world, you ought to trade with others because these brokers only provide best services for those living in their countries.

It also supports online 24/7 by live chat or phone for other countries.

- WHAT CRITERION CAN WE USE TO RANK THESE BROKERS?
There are lots of criteria for ranking them, but the leading one is publishing the trading volume. Do you know why? That’s because the clearer and trustier the trading volume is, the more transparent the brokers will be. It means that those brokers won’t cheat you, so your money will be safer. There are also some brokers don’t publish their trading volume. In this case we can consult the figures on several reliable resources such as statistic websites, financial news, and newspaper.
Sometimes, big brokers like Forex.com and Saxo Bank offer higher trading volume but lower forex volume as they have to provide lots of products such as Crypto, Forex, Future, Commodities, and Stock.
For instance:
- com: total trading volume is $500 billion, but forex volume is $300 billion.
- Saxo Bank: total trading volume: $600 billion, but forex volume is $300 billion.
