Chapter 01
Introducing the company
FxPro is a regulated brokerage company founded in 2006, headquartered in London with offices in Cyprus, the United Arab Emirates, the Bahamas and Monaco. The group is a private company, not listed on any stock exchange, with accounts audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC), one of the world's Big Four audit firms. The offering is built entirely on contracts for difference (CFDs — over-the-counter (OTC) instruments through which you trade the price difference without owning the asset), across eight asset classes: the currency market, shares, indices, futures, metals, energy, exchange-traded funds and cryptocurrencies.

How the company earns
No dealing desk model (STP)
A no dealing desk (STP) model. The company remains the counterparty to your trades, but prices come aggregated from several liquidity providers, and the position is passed on.
That is where the main revenue comes from: the all-in spread on commission-free accounts, and the per-lot commission on raw-spread accounts. Added to this, in the order you will encounter them: the charge for positions held overnight (swap), currency conversion and the inactivity fee. The model is legal and supervised by the authorities that issued the licences.
What sets it apart
Five platforms under one agreement. MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5, cTrader, the proprietary platform and TradingView, with the same contractual documents. It means you can change your working environment without opening an account with another company. That matters if you have invested years in robots written for MetaTrader or in cTrader algorithms — here they run without rewriting.
Dynamic leverage, on volume thresholds. The cap drops automatically as the cumulative position on the same instrument grows. It means large exposure costs more margin, not less. That matters for the trader who scales volume gradually and wants to know in advance how the margin requirement will change.
- No dealing desk execution
- Five platforms under one agreement
- Robots and algorithms allowed
- Negative balance protection
- No minimum threshold on basic accounts

Regulation and the safety of your money
The FxPro group operates authorised entities in several jurisdictions. Clients from the Republic of Moldova register on the group's global licences — the ones serving clients outside the European Union. Below are all the group's authorisations, each verifiable by you in the authority's public register.

How client money is protected
The protections below depend on the rules of each entity and we explain them at length, for all our partners, in the guides of the Brokers section; here — briefly, for orientation:
Segregation of funds — client money sits in bank accounts separate from the company's money. The company cannot use it for its own expenses, and the bank holding it cannot offset it against the company's debts. At the European Union entity this is complemented by daily reconciliation of the amounts and strict bank selection criteria.
Negative balance protection — the account cannot stay below zero: if a sudden price move takes the balance negative, the company covers the difference. In the European Union, the United Kingdom and Australia the protection is imposed by regulation for non-professional investors, at trading account level. On the group's global licences it is the company's own policy, provided for contractually for all clients.
Compensation scheme — covers the company's failure, not trading losses and not a drop in the value of investments. Where it exists, it pays 90% of the net loss, at most 20,000 EUR per client, and only to non-professional investors; professional and institutional clients are excluded. On the group's global licences, where clients from the Republic of Moldova register, no such fund exists — which is why the reputation and regulation of the whole group matter so much. What a compensation fund is, we explained in the Glossary › We have explained what a compensation fund is in the Glossary.
Beware of clones
The FxPro name is used by fraudsters. FCA — Financial Conduct Authority (the UK authority) — „„Fx Pro” — clone firm” (2020); FCA — Financial Conduct Authority (the UK authority) — „„FX Pro Europe” — a clone firm that used the details of the Cypriot entity” (2019); FCA — Financial Conduct Authority (the UK authority) — „metatraderfxpro.com — unauthorised firm” (2024); FCA — Financial Conduct Authority (the UK authority) — „realfxpro.com”.
The simple rule: the official domain is fxpro.com, and through Trading.md you always reach it via the links on this page.

Chapter 03
CFD trading
FxPro offers trading exclusively through contracts for difference — you do not buy the real assets, you trade the price difference, with leverage and in both directions of the market. Eight asset classes, four live accounts and five platforms.
The tables below show the main conditions. The button adds the detailed rows — technical specifications, useful if you already know what you are looking for.
General conditions
| Asset classes | the currency market, shares, indices, futures, metals, energy, exchange-traded funds and cryptocurrencies — all as CFDs |
|---|---|
| Number of assets | thousands of assets, across all classes |
| Order execution | market execution, no dealing desk (NDD): prices are aggregated from several liquidity providers, and market orders are executed at the volume-weighted average price of the available volume. The execution policy provides that, at high volatility or in cases of abusive trading behaviour, execution may be done manually. The document is among those in Regulation and safety of funds › |
| Order typesFULL SPEC SHEET | market, limit, stop, stop-limit, trailing stop, guaranteed stop-loss order (with a separate fee). No guaranteed execution: when triggered, the order is executed at the next available price. Requotes appear only with instant execution on MetaTrader 4. Untriggered pending orders are deleted automatically after three months |
| Platform time zoneFULL SPEC SHEET | UTC+2, or UTC+3 during daylight saving time (server time) — it matters for reading daily candles correctly and for the moment the overnight charge is applied |
| Maximum leverage | 1:200 major currencies and gold · 1:50 shares and exchange-traded funds · 1:20 cryptocurrencies. Leverage is dynamic: it drops automatically as the open volume on the same instrument grows, moving from 1:200 to 1:100 and then to 1:50. For 15 minutes before and 5 minutes after high-impact economic news, margin requirements rise temporarily. Clients who meet the criteria can request the professional category, with higher leverage — we know exactly how much is possible, what the criteria are and how the procedure goes. Leverage amplifies both the gain and the loss: Risk management › |
| Margin call / stop-outFULL SPEC SHEET | the company may start closing positions from a margin level of 10%, and automatic close-out triggers at 0%. On cTrader a partial close-out mechanism operates. Unusually permissive thresholds: they give you more room, but also the possibility of losing the committed margin entirely. Negative balance protection remains active |
| Swap | proprietary rates, calculated on the basis of interbank rates; applied daily at 23:59, server time. Charged triple on Wednesday for the currency market and metals, and on Friday for the other instruments |
| Inactivity fee | 10 USD once after 6 months without activity, then 10 USD per month for as long as the account stays inactive, on each account separately — worth knowing, although if you come to trade, not just to park money, you will never encounter it: a single trade before the deadline cancels it |
| Demo account | available on all platforms, with no time restrictions |
| Account without overnight interest (Islamic) | on request, on any live account, with possible administrative fees on some instruments after a number of days — it does not appear automatically, it is requested at opening |
| Currency conversion | on operations in a currency other than the account currency; the cost, if any, usually comes from your bank, not from the broker |
| Deposits and withdrawals | the company charges no fees; your bank may charge its own fees — details in Deposits and withdrawals › |
| Transfers between your accountsFULL SPEC SHEET | free of charge, through the FxPro Wallet. The wallet is mandatory: all payments go in and out through it, and funds held there are not affected by the profit or loss on positions |
| Prohibited trading practicesFULL SPEC SHEET | the contract prohibits by name latency arbitrage, overnight-interest arbitrage and exploitation of negative balance protection. Scalping, by contrast, is allowed. This matters if you run robots: the classification is made by the company, and the consequences are set out in the contract |
| Account currencies | USD, EUR, GBP, CHF, PLN, JPY, AUD — reconfirm when opening the account |
Who is on the other side of the trade
No dealing desk model (STP). The company remains the contractual party to your trades, but prices come aggregated from several liquidity providers and the position is passed on. The company remains the contractual party and is the sole execution venue. The list of liquidity providers is not published: the company only declares aggregation from several providers, with execution at the volume-weighted average price of the available liquidity.

The account without overnight interest is obtained by converting an existing account, on request.
The loyalty programme: on top of the Elite account rebates, the company returns to the wallet each month a percentage of trading costs, in monthly volume tiers — it also applies to all-in spread accounts. We go through the conditions together at the consultation.
Chapter 04
Platforms and tools
Five platforms, under a single client agreement. The platform is chosen when opening the account and determines which account type you can use.
| Platform | What for | Where it runs |
|---|---|---|
| MetaTrader 4 | the most widespread platform in the industry · robots in MQL4 · instant or market execution, your choice | Desktop, Web, iOS, Android |
| MetaTrader 5 | more timeframes and order types · robots in MQL5 · opposite positions on the same instrument, your choice | Desktop, Web, iOS, Android |
| cTrader | visible market depth, raw spread plus commission, cBots algorithms in C#, no minimum distance on orders — the platform of the cTrader account | Desktop, Web, iOS, Android |
| The company's own platform | the browser version and the company's app · integrated account administration: deposits, withdrawals and reports in one place | Web, iOS, Android |
| TradingView | direct integration: trading from TradingView charts, with the company's login | Web |
| FxPro Wallet | not a trading platform, but the layer all money passes through · funds held here are not exposed to losses from open positions | Web, iOS, Android |
Trade copying
The agreement provides that the firm may offer services for copying other clients' trades, on a strictly execution-only basis — not portfolio management and not investment advice. The service may rely on third-party software. There are also accounts run by money managers, of the PAMM type. The past results of the copied trader do not guarantee future results, and the risk remains your account's — the client is fully responsible for choosing the traders being copied. Availability differs depending on the licence your account is opened on; we check it together at the copy trading consultation ›
Virtual private server
For robots that need to run non-stop, without keeping your computer on. Free on the Elite account, paid otherwise.
Analysis included
Technical analysis provided by Trading Central, calculators for position size and pip value, an economic calendar and a quarterly earnings calendar — all in the account.
What it lacks: real purchase of shares or funds. Everything you trade here is a contract for difference. If you want to actually own the securities, this partner is not the right fit — we call things by their name and show you which of our partners does offer it.
Chapter 05
Deposits and withdrawals
The rules follow the standards of the field: money comes in and goes out only through cards or bank accounts opened in your name (an anti-money-laundering rule). Below you have the conditions for transactions with bank accounts from Moldova.
| Method | Deposit / duration | Withdrawal / duration | Keep in mind |
|---|---|---|---|
| Visa / Mastercard card | 0% on the company's side · about 10 minutes | 0% on the company's side · 1 business day, plus bank processing days | withdrawals are first returned to the card used for the deposit, up to the amount funded from it in the last 6–12 months; the rest goes out via another route |
| SEPA transfer (EUR) | 0% on the company's side · usually the same business day | 0% on the company's side · usually the same business day | Moldova has been in the SEPA zone since 6 Oct 2025, so a euro transfer is charged at the SEPA rate, not SWIFT; your bank may charge a few euros separately |
| International bank transfer (SWIFT) | 0% on the company's side · 3–5 business days | 0% on the company's side · 3–5 business days | sending and intermediary banks apply their own fees |
| E-wallets (Skrill, Neteller) | 0% on the company's side · fast | 0% on the company's side · fast | a withdrawal fee may apply if you have not made any trades |
| FxPro Wallet (internal) | 0 · instant | 0 · instant | mandatory — all money passes through it; when you have open positions, transfers back from the trading account are made only during market hours |
How a withdrawal is made
Withdrawal requests are processed, after the account has been verified, usually much faster than the official deadlines indicate. The withdrawal first returns to the method used for the deposit; the profit can go out to a bank account or another method, but strictly in your name.
These are not obstacles — they are exactly the rules that make the difference between a financial institution and a scam.
Note for Moldova — read before you deposit
Some banks in the country may delay or even reject transfers to brokerage companies. The reason is not you: the stock market field is only now coming under local regulation (Law 177/2025), and the banks, faced with the wave of frauds in which criminals pose as “brokers” or “investment firms”, still do not have clear procedures for telling a regulated brokerage company apart from a scam. In developed countries, stock market investing is integrated directly into online banking; here, the banks are only just learning that a regulated brokerage company is, like them, a supervised financial institution. The good news: if you understand what you are doing and can explain to the bank where the money is going — your own trading account, with a regulated company, verifiable in public registers — the situation is usually cleared up quickly. You have the same support for withdrawals: if the bank asks about the origin of the money, trading and stock market investing are legal activities, and our partner companies issue official activity reports (account statements) precisely for this kind of transparency.
Your bank may charge its own conversion or currency transfer fee — check its tariffs before your first deposit, and if you want, we will work out the cheapest route together, free of charge.

The complaints procedure
Complaints are first filed with the company's compliance department, with the response deadline published in its documents. If the answer does not satisfy you, you can turn to the authority supervising the licence your account was opened on — the contact details are in the company's documents.
Before all that, tell us what happened. Most of the time the trouble comes from some services and procedures not being known well enough, and things get cleared up in one conversation. If not, we help you word the complaint correctly — it is part of our support.
Chapter 07
How to open the account, step by step
Six steps, in their natural order — and if you get stuck somewhere, ask us for help, it is free.
Open the registration form
Through the button on this page, so that the registration is linked to us and you receive the support and the conditions of Trading.md clients.
Fill in your personal details
Name, country, e-mail, phone — exactly as they appear in your identity document. One different letter delays the verification.
Answer the experience questionnaire
Questions about income, savings and your experience with leveraged instruments. Answer honestly: the questionnaire establishes what can be offered to you.
Upload the documents
The identity document and the proof of address, in the Client Cabinet. Clear photographs, the corners visible, the document within its validity period.
Create the trading account
You choose the platform, the account type, the currency and the leverage. You can change them later by opening a new account — you are not locked into your first choice.
Fund the account and get started
You deposit through one of the accepted methods, in your name. Our recommendation: start on a demo, in parallel, until you understand the platform.
Account verification
In principle, all brokers ask for the same thing: that you prove who you are and where you live. The details differ — which documents they accept, from which institutions, in what format and how long it takes.
Which documents and how many
Two, as a rule: one that confirms your identity and one that confirms your address. They must be within their validity period and legible in full.
Who issues the accepted document
Not every piece of paper with your address on it is accepted. The accepted issuing institutions differ from one company to another, and for Moldova not all the variants work the same way.
Selfie, video or just an upload
At some companies it is enough to upload the files. At others a photograph with the document in your hand or a short video verification is needed.
How long it takes and what a refusal means
From a few minutes to a few weeks, depending on how clear the documents are. A refusal does not close the door: it usually means that additional or clearer documents are required.
You do not have to remember them all. We have been cooperating with each partner for years and know their requirements well, so we tell you from the start exactly what to prepare — and if you want, we stay by your side throughout. And if you have already tried somewhere and the verification did not pass, bring us your case: most of the time it gets resolved, with the final decision, of course, remaining with the company. We go through verification together, free of charge ›
Documents and account types
| Identity document | Identity card or passport, valid, with all the corners visible in the photograph. |
|---|---|
| Proof of address | A recent document that contains your name and your address. |
| Additional checks for large amounts | The company may ask for documents about the origin of the funds — it is an anti-money-laundering requirement, not a suspicion directed at you. |
| Multiple accounts | You can have several trading accounts under the same client profile, with different platforms and currencies. |
| Company account | available: the company's documents are required (registration extract, articles of association), the details of the beneficial owners and the documents of the signatory. The procedure takes longer than for individuals; we accompany you through it. |

Conclusion: who it suits
It suits
Active CFD traders who want technical freedom: five platforms under one agreement, robots and algorithms allowed, scalping allowed and a cost model that becomes advantageous as volume grows. If you already have tools written for MetaTrader or cTrader, here they run without rewriting.
To weigh up
On the group's global licences there is no investor compensation fund. Automatic close-out triggers only when margin is exhausted — more room, but also more risk. The inactivity fee accrues on every account left open. And if you want real share ownership, you will not find it here.
