VERDICT ÉDITORIAL
Le verdict IC
Markets.com is a multi-regulated CFD broker offering forex, crypto, indices, shares and commodities through its in-house MarketsX platform plus MetaTrader 4/5. Negative balance protection, segregated client funds and a top-tier regulatory mix (CySEC, FCA, ASIC, FSCA, FSC BVI) make it a solid choice for global traders, though spreads run on the higher side at around 2 pips EUR/USD.
