| Review |
We’ve made it easy to compare the best forex brokers, side-by-side. Our editorial team has collected thousands of data points, written hundreds of thousands of words of research, and tested over 60 brokers to help you find the best forex brokers in the industry. Our research is unbiased and independent; learn more about how we test. That same research and data powers our broker comparisons. Let's compare FXGT.com vs ATFX.
FXGT.com is not publicly traded, does not operate a bank, and is authorised by one Tier-1 regulator (Highly Trusted), one Tier-2 regulator (Trusted), zero Tier-3 regulators (Average Risk), and two Tier-4 regulators (High Risk). FXGT.com is regulated in the European Union via the MiFID passporting system.
ATFX is not publicly traded and does not operate a bank. ATFX is authorised by two tier-1 regulators (Highly Trusted), one Tier-2 regulators (Trusted), zero Tier-3 regulators (Average Risk), and one Tier-4 regulator (High Risk). ATFX is authorised by the following Tier-1 regulators: Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and regulated in the European Union via the MiFID passporting system
FXGT.com is a plain vanilla MetaTrader-only broker offering a narrow range of markets alongside a decent number of crypto CFDs and platform plugins. This broker lacks robust market research and educational resources beyond a few ebooks and some basic sentiment data. FXGT.com’s small number of regulatory licenses brings down its overall Trust Score. It’s also worth noting that, though FXGT.com is regulated in the EU, retail clients are not accepted in that region.
ATFX primarily offers the MetaTrader platform suite from its regulated brands in the EU via Cyprus, and the UK, as well as its offshore entity in Mauritius. ATFX has made progress although still trails behind the best brokers when it comes to the range of investment products it offers and the available trading platforms.
To open a trading account with FXGT.com, you'll need to make an initial minimum deposit of $5.
ATFX requires a minimum deposit of $500 before you can open an account and start trading.
It's important to make sure that your forex broker accepts the funding options and deposit methods that work best for you. FXGT.com offers Visa/Mastercard (Credit/Debit), Bank Wire (Deposit/Withdraw) and Neteller (Deposit/Withdraw) for banking, whereas ATFX provides Visa/Mastercard (Credit/Debit), Bank Wire (Deposit/Withdraw), Skrill (Deposit/Withdraw) and Neteller (Deposit/Withdraw). Neither have PayPal (Deposit/Withdraw).
Comparing the trading costs of forex and CFDs is not easy. Not every broker publishes average spread data, and pricing structures vary. Based on our thorough, data-driven testing of each broker's commissions and fees, we found that FXGT.com offers better pricing overall for traders.
Methodology: When testing each broker's commissions, fees, and pricing, we analyze multiple trade scenarios and award points based on the expansiveness (or inexpensiveness) of the broker's spreads. We then run multiple scenarios for different investor types, incorporating any miscellaneous fees, to determine an "all-in" cost per trade. Learn more about how we test.
At ForexBrokers.com, we track over 110 international regulatory agencies and sort them by tiers (Tier-1, Tier-2, Tier-3, Tier-4, and Tier-5) to help you choose well-regulated, highly trusted forex brokers. Learn more about our proprietary Trust Score rating system. Based on our research on the regulatory status of over 60 brokers, we've found that ATFX holds 2 global Tier-1 licenses, while FXGT.com holds 1. Both FXGT.com and ATFX hold 1 global Tier-2 licenses.
After evaluating each broker based on their number of held licenses, years in business, and a range of other data-driven variables, we've determined that ATFX (73) earned a higher Trust Score than FXGT.com (69).
To compare the trading platforms of both FXGT.com and ATFX, we tested each broker's trading tools, research capabilities, and mobile apps. For trading tools, FXGT.com offers a better experience. With research, ATFX offers superior market research. Finally, we found FXGT.com to provide better mobile trading apps.
