Comment by Reviewer
"After exploring the accounts, I recommend FXDD for experienced traders looking for reliable VPS hosting and automated trading tools. It will also serve traders familiar with the MetaQuotes software, with both the MT4 and MT5 platforms on offer."
Pros
  • I was pleased to see Trading Central integration which offers daily fundamental market analysis, automated chart pattern software and market insights newsletters
  • I find FXDD highly accessible for beginners with just a $1 minimum deposit to get started, plus cent, mini, micro and demo accounts
  • I feel reassured that the broker is regulated by various regulators that offer investor compensation and negative balance protection
  • It's good to see VPS accounts for algo traders and experienced traders who are looking to run complex automated strategies
  • I'm glad to see responsive 24/7 multilingual customer support, since many traders only offer 24/5 customer service
  • MAM and PAMM accounts are also available for those who want to manage trader portfolios and earn commissions
Cons
  • It's a shame that a $40 inactivity fee applies to accounts that have been dormant for more than 90 days. This is a little high compared to some other brands
  • I also don't appreciate that withdrawal fees apply for more than one payment per calendar month, which is particularly punitive for active traders
  • In addition, there is a $25 withdrawal fee for payments under $100, which is steep and will hurt beginners the most
  • Overall, I think FXDD offers a pretty narrow range of instruments compared to the top brokers
  • I think the broker should improve their outdated market insights section

CFD Trading
Trade with leveraged CFDs on popular financial markets. Traders can access CFDs across forex, indices, commodities and stocks. I was able to employ automated and scalping strategies in both MetaTrader platforms, and I think experienced CFD traders will appreciate the range of free trading tools on offer, including a custom price ticker.
