Accounts & headline costs
Sections ↑Markets4you is the successor brand to Forex4you. The rebrand retained existing account and login information while widening the presentation beyond currencies. This profile uses the public English offer and identifies regional differences where pages route to another contracting company. A familiar brand or platform does not determine which entity will hold a particular customer’s account.[23]
Four published account choices
Account entry and order capacity
Reading the headline pricing
| Question | What the evidence establishes |
|---|---|
| Classic Pro commission basis | The trading page separately specifies USD 3.50 per lot per side, consistent with USD 7 for an opening and closing pair.Source 2 |
| Comparable average cost | Account-wide minimum spreads are not measured EUR/USD averages. No reproducible account-specific spread series was obtained.Source 2 |
| Cent commission basis | The account matrix does not explicitly label its 7-cent amount one-way or round-trip; retain that uncertainty.Source 1 |
Contract size is a consequential difference: a 0.01 Classic FX lot represents 1,000 base-currency units, while a 0.01 cent lot represents ten. A cent-denominated balance and a smaller contract must be converted before comparing the cash exposure, commission or performance with a standard account.[2]
Products & platforms
Sections ↑Core instruments to check first
| Instrument | Evidence and contract distinction |
|---|---|
| EUR/USD | Named currency pair in the broker’s own application listing. Cash currency delivery is not established.Source 27 |
| USD/JPY | Named FX pair; Japanese-yen quote units must be distinguished from non-JPY pairs.Source 27 |
| GBP/USD | Named FX pair; account minimum spread is not a pair-specific average.Source 27 |
| Gold | Gold exposure is advertised alongside other traded instruments; verify the terminal symbol and contract multiplier.Source 27 |
| WTI | The broker listing expressly names WTI crude oil. A current symbol, expiry treatment, barrel multiplier and WTI-specific spread were not verified.Source 27 |
Product families and scope
| Family | Public offer | Important boundary |
|---|---|---|
| Currencies | 50+ FX pairs | Product and account availability may differ by platform.Source 2 |
| Shares and indices | 50+ company stocks; 15+ indices | The offer is leveraged trading; direct share ownership is not evidenced.Source 2 |
| Commodities | Gold, Brent and WTI | Do not substitute Brent terms for WTI.Source 2 |
MetaTrader platform access
| Platform | Published capabilities | Practical distinction |
|---|---|---|
| MT4 | Desktop, web and mobile access; one-click orders, indicators, alerts, strategy testing and Expert Advisors. | The page warns that features differ between desktop, web and mobile.Source 19 |
| MT5 | Desktop, web and mobile access; market depth, analysis tools, pending orders and Expert Advisors. | The product page advertises 120+ instruments, below the wider brand headline; confirm the logged-in symbol list.Source 20 |
Own mobile application
| Function | What is published |
|---|---|
| Trading and monitoring | Real-time charts, order entry and account management from smartphones.Source 18 |
| Security | Two-factor authentication is explicitly advertised. Availability was documented, not tested.Source 18 |
| Funding and research | Deposits, withdrawals, chart tools and an economic calendar appear in the application feature list.Source 18 |
Regional cryptocurrency offer
| Feature | Published terms |
|---|---|
| Instruments | Bitcoin, ether and litecoin are advertised on the regional crypto page.Source 21 |
| Accounts and fees | Zero commission and swap-free crypto promotion is scoped to self-trading Classic Pro and Classic Standard accounts.Source 21 |
| Hours | Advertised 24/7 with Saturday maintenance from 17:00 to 20:00 UTC.Source 21 |
| Entity boundary | The retrieved regional page carries the SVG entity. These terms are not established for every BVI or MT5 account.Source 21 |
Fees & holding costs
Sections ↑Holding charges and account currency
| Charge | Treatment |
|---|---|
| Ordinary overnight swaps | Regional conditions describe daily rollover and a triple charge on Wednesday; CAD and RUB exceptions use Thursday. Live direction-specific amounts require the trading terminal.Source 8 |
| Account denomination | The comparison matrix shows USD. Contract references to EUR do not establish that a new EUR account is currently available.Source 1 |
Swap-free availability
| Item | Published position |
|---|---|
| Countries | Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, India and Nigeria are named on the Islamic-account page.Source 9 |
| Setup | Select swap-free when creating a new account; the page says existing accounts cannot be converted.Source 9 |
| Headline instruments | EUR/USD, USD/JPY, GBP/USD, AUD/USD, USD/CAD, NZD/USD, USD/CHF and gold are presented as unlimited holding-fee-free instruments.Source 9 |
| Other instruments | Maintenance charges can begin after three calendar days, calculated on net volume. The retrieved rate widget did not provide a complete fee schedule.Source 9 |
Swap-free restrictions to reconcile
| Issue | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Platform and instrument lists | Older FAQ wording differs from the main Islamic-account list and mentions MT4 account variants. Obtain account-specific eligibility before assuming MT5 coverage.Source 9 |
| Approval and withdrawal | The supplementary agreement makes eligibility discretionary and permits status withdrawal. Religious-purpose approval does not guarantee exemption for every instrument.Source 10 |
| Misuse remedies | The agreement allows retrospective swap recovery, deductions and other remedies for prohibited use. Holding a position without daily swaps does not establish a permanent zero holding cost.Source 10 |
Dormancy and exceptional payment costs
| Trigger | Contract consequence |
|---|---|
| Over six months without trades, open trades AND client balance operations | USD/EUR 10 monthly; after twelve months USD/EUR 20 monthly. Pending-order changes do not count as activity.Source 6 |
| Exhausted balance | Inactivity deductions stop at the remaining positive balance.Source 6 |
| Payment misuse | Contract caps are up to 10% of a deposit and 5% of a withdrawal.Source 6 |
Execution & trading rules
Sections ↑Execution evidence and document conflict
| Topic | Assessment |
|---|---|
| Current account model | The current matrix labels all four accounts market execution.Source 1 |
| Legacy regulation wording | A still-linked regulation describes Instant Execution, requotes and manual response timing. Those legacy timing statements are not treated as current execution measurements.Source 7 |
| Stops and gaps | The regulation allows execution away from the requested stop price when markets gap. No guaranteed-stop product was established.Source 7 |
| Evidence for disputes | The regulation relies on server logs; another broker’s quote alone does not establish an execution error.Source 7 |
Regional leverage tiers
These tiers come from the regional trading-conditions page, which redirected to the SVG-facing site. Reduced leverage can apply across accounts; higher leverage is not a permanent entitlement. Obtain the actual account’s margin schedule, including event and concentration changes.[8]
Hedging and market-event constraints
| Rule | Published regional condition |
|---|---|
| Lock protection | Closing a hedged leg can be refused if resulting margin falls below 100%; stop-loss/take-profit settings may be removed.Source 8 |
| News and weekly close | Leverage may be reduced around important news or the weekly close; opening and releasing hedges can therefore require more margin.Source 8 |
Automation and execution reliability
| Topic | Evidence boundary |
|---|---|
| EAs | MT4 supports automated scripts, Expert Advisors and strategy testing. This establishes software support, not acceptance of every strategy.Source 19 |
| MT5 automation | The broker also advertises EAs and backtesting on MT5; mobile feature equivalence is not stated.Source 20 |
| Uptime and speed claims | The infrastructure page advertises 100% uptime and millisecond execution. No independent current sample or outage record was examined, so neither is presented as achieved performance.Source 24 |
Additional order restrictions
| Rule | Published treatment |
|---|---|
| Stop/limit distance | Cent Pro starts at two pips; other accounts show no limit.Source 1 |
| Order types | The BVI regulation describes buy/sell limit and stop orders and attached stop-loss/take-profit instructions. Acceptance and execution still depend on the applicable trading conditions.Source 7 |
| Prohibited exploitation | The client agreement permits cancellation or recovery for latency/swap arbitrage, non-market prices and exploitation of software faults. EA compatibility does not waive these contractual restrictions.Source 6 |
Deposits, withdrawals & transfers
Sections ↑Named electronic-wallet limits
Local transfer options
Timing, currency and checks
| Topic | Important condition |
|---|---|
| Processing clocks | Payment page markets 24/7 automatic withdrawals; the agreement allows two working days, with additional verification delays.Source 6 |
| Currency conversion | The broker’s displayed internal conversion rate may differ from an independent market mid-rate.Source 6 |
| Crypto fee | Published withdrawal range is 0–0.50%. Method availability depends on location and verification.Source 3 |
| Funding name | Use accounts in the customer’s own name; third-party funding is prohibited.Source 12 |
The payment page’s average-processing headline is thirty minutes, without a disclosed sample period or measurement method. Its separate “instant” route labels and automatic-withdrawal marketing should therefore be treated as published service descriptions. They do not establish the elapsed time for an unverified applicant, a large payment or an exception requiring manual approval.[3]
Payment exceptions and access controls
| Condition | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Contract processing hours | The BVI agreement identifies business processing hours of 08:00–17:00 CET, despite the website’s round-the-clock service presentation.Source 6 |
| Extra document checks | Where documents are in doubt, the agreement allows up to five working days of additional review.Source 6 |
| Shared network restriction | The agreement requires a unique IP for payment operations and prohibits shared-IP use. Obtain clarification before funding from a shared connection.Source 6 |
| Practical funding floor | The zero account-opening minimum differs from named deposit routes beginning at USD 10 or USD 25 equivalent.Source 3 |
Refunds and source-of-funds controls
| Situation | Potential result |
|---|---|
| Little or no trading after funding | After more than a month the refund policy permits return of the deposited amount to its original source.Source 12 |
| Unclear ownership or suspicious activity | Transfers or withdrawals may be frozen while the broker applies its AML controls.Source 12 |
| Payment-provider involvement | Named payment agents facilitate transfers; their appearance in payment paperwork does not replace the trading counterparty.Source 12 |
Protection & regulation
Sections ↑Practical regional protection boundaries
| Offer | What the distinction means |
|---|---|
| BVI contract | The FSC verifies dealing as principal. This permission concerns the BVI counterparty and does not establish protection for every regional offer.Source 28Source 5 |
| SVG regional offer | Company registration 1440 LLC 2021 does not establish investment-business authorisation or the protections of the BVI contract.Source 8 |
| Mauritius group reference | The group also names a Mauritius company, GBC 182286. Its current issuer status and allocation of Markets4you customers remain unverified.Source 24 |
What protection disclosures establish
| Protection | Evidence and limit |
|---|---|
| Segregation | The broker says customer money is separated from company funds at major banks. No current bank-level reconciliation or independent custody attestation was examined.Source 24 |
| Negative balance and insurance | The same page promotes negative-balance protection and insurance without a sufficiently detailed policy schedule to quantify account-specific coverage.Source 24 |
| Compensation | The reviewed BVI sources did not establish a statutory compensation entitlement with a numerical limit. A group licence does not itself establish deposit insurance.Source 28 |
| Country restrictions | The English site excludes the United States, Japan, Canada, Russia, Iran, North Korea, Myanmar, Australia and the EEA. The list does not prove acceptance everywhere else.Source 5 |
The English legal footer also claims an annual audit by a Big Four accounting firm and insurance supplied by Lloyd. The reviewed material did not identify an accessible current audit opinion or a policy schedule specifying the insured company, covered events, exclusions and limit. These remain attributed company claims rather than quantified customer guarantees.[5]
BVI register check
| Check | Result |
|---|---|
| Authority record | The FSC company entry was read directly, not inferred from a broker badge.Source 28 |
| Record freshness | The retrieved authority entry displayed an update of 31 August 2026; research access was 11 October 2026.Source 28 |
| What remains separate | Regulatory status verifies the named company and category. It does not verify a particular customer’s contract, a trading fill, withdrawal performance or solvency.Source 28 |
Opening an account & support
Sections ↑Identity and application preparation
| Applicant | Documents and checks |
|---|---|
| Individual | Valid passport or national identification plus separate residential evidence, such as a utility or regulated financial-institution statement issued within three months.Source 11 |
| Company | Incorporation and constitutional documents, ownership/director records, beneficial-owner identification, relevant bank evidence and authority to operate.Source 11 |
| Enhanced checks | Source of funds or wealth, business details and certified or translated documents can be required. Missing evidence can stop transactions or acceptance.Source 11 |
Application workflow and account records
| Step | Practical consequence |
|---|---|
| Acceptance | Registration remains subject to the broker’s verification and jurisdiction assessment; advertised rapid opening is not a guaranteed approval deadline.Source 11 |
| Account history | Current matrix: Classic MT4 history six months, Classic MT5 unlimited; cent history three weeks. Export records regularly when the available window is short.Source 1 |
| Change of identity details | Keep the broker’s records current; ongoing checks can be requested during the relationship, not only on first registration.Source 11 |
The AML documentation can require notarisation or apostille and an English translation where appropriate. Corporate applicants should distinguish the person placing orders from directors, owners and beneficial owners, since the policy may require evidence for several people. These documentary requirements can determine whether an apparently complete online application is ready for approval.[11]
Trading support and business contacts
The contact directory also supplies local-language teams across Asian and African markets with different hours. The global support number is not labelled a dedicated emergency dealing desk. A published telephone or chat channel does not guarantee that an urgent order can be accepted there. No response-time or telephone-dealing test was performed.[4]
Complaints escalation
| Stage | Published process |
|---|---|
| Submit | The complaints policy uses [email protected]; include name, account, transaction identifiers, times and a clear account of the problem.Source 13 |
| Acknowledgement | Policy target: two business days.Source 13 |
| Substantive response | A holding response is due if no final response is possible within fifteen business days after acknowledgement.Source 13 |
| Further escalation | The policy identifies the BVI FSC for further mediation; this is distinct from a guaranteed monetary award.Source 13 |
Linked documents are inconsistent: the client agreement uses a different complaints email domain and the trading regulation imposes a very short objection window. Preserve trade evidence and submit a written complaint promptly through the published complaints-policy route; obtain written confirmation of the applicable deadline.[7][13]
Additional services
Sections ↑Share4you roles and controls
| Role | Function |
|---|---|
| Follower | Connect an account, select leaders and copy their trades automatically; the service page advertises no separate minimum deposit.Source 16 |
| Leader | Make a strategy available for followers and earn the applicable commissions. Leader popularity is not a guarantee of returns.Source 16 |
| Watcher | The legal agreement distinguishes a simulation-only Watcher from a funded Follower. Simulated results do not create the same cash exposure.Source 17 |
| Control | The agreement allows followers to modify or close their own positions and apply volume controls.Source 17 |
Share4you costs and execution limits
| Issue | What to establish |
|---|---|
| Commission | The agreement refers to a separate commission list and can charge both copied and directly opened trades in the relevant account. No single universal follower price is established here.Source 17 |
| Replication | Execution attempts to match the leader, subject to liquidity and slippage; follower fills and results may differ.Source 17 |
| Stopping | Stopping following prevents subsequent copying. The reviewed wording does not justify assuming every existing position closes automatically.Source 17 |
PAMM structure
| Feature | Published model |
|---|---|
| Manager accounts | MT5 Classic Pro and Classic Standard are advertised for managers.Source 14 |
| Allocation | A manager trades pooled exposure, with allocation to participating investors. Manager offers set entry, fee and withdrawal conditions.Source 14 |
| Investor decision | Review the offer’s dealing interval and withdrawal rules before subscribing; a PAMM investment is not interchangeable with an immediately accessible wallet.Source 14 |
PAMM agreement safeguards and limits
| Topic | Legal description |
|---|---|
| Performance fee | The agreement defines a high-water mark adjusted for cash flows; inspect the manager’s actual fee schedule and performance period.Source 15 |
| Responsibility | The broker describes a technology service, including third-party integration, and disclaims acting as the asset manager, fiduciary or investment adviser.Source 15 |
| Manager conduct | Managers must disclose relevant strategy and risk information; trading solely to generate commissions is prohibited.Source 15 |
| Losses | Neither manager selection nor the high-water-mark method removes investment loss or liquidity risk.Source 15 |
IB, automation and connectivity
| Service | Published scope |
|---|---|
| Introducing brokers | Individuals and businesses can apply. Advertised maximum remuneration is 60% of relevant spread/commission revenue; actual tier and qualifying activity govern.Source 25 |
| Partner tools | Partner reporting, marketing material, automated rebates and loyalty features are advertised. Payout calculators are illustrations rather than earnings forecasts.Source 25 |
| Retail API / VPS | The infrastructure page’s FIX connections refer to liquidity providers. A public retail FIX/REST entitlement or complete broker-funded VPS schedule was not established.Source 24 |
Partner remuneration and disclosure
| Item | Published programme detail |
|---|---|
| Payout cycle | IB programme advertises recurring payouts every four hours, subject to qualifying commissions.Source 25 |
| Loyalty and status | Five status levels and a loyalty addition of up to 20% of monthly commissions are advertised; the qualifying schedule controls.Source 25 |
| Referral economics | Rewards depend on referred trading activity, including copying. Identify the partner relationship and any client rebate before treating a referral as independent product analysis.Source 25 |

Additional Information
Sections ↑Records, security and document control
Information worth retaining with the account
| Record | Reason |
|---|---|
| Account-specific application and terms | The legal index publishes several BVI policies with different update dates. Save the accepted versions alongside the final contracting-entity confirmation.Source 5 |
| Two-factor settings and access history | The own application advertises 2FA. Check enrolment and recovery controls before relying on the account for live trading.Source 18 |
| Privacy requests | The privacy page gives a thirty-day response period for rights requests, while legal retention can limit immediate deletion.Source 26 |
| Data retention | The AML policy retains records for five years after the relationship ends. Closing an account does not imply immediate erasure of identity records.Source 11 |
Items that still need account-specific confirmation
Material unresolved details
| Item | Why it is not filled with a global default |
|---|---|
| Instrument pricing | A dated pair-level average spread, exact WTI specification and non-FX commission schedule were not established across accounts.Source 27 |
| Routing and protection | Mauritius group disclosure does not establish that an applicant receives that company’s contract or benefits.Source 24 |
| Copy trading platform | The service page emphasises MT4 and the own application, while the company timeline adds MT5. Confirm eligibility for the intended server and account.Source 16 |
| Swap-free and payments | Applicable platform, maintenance-fee table, payment method and verification level must be confirmed in the actual account.Source 10 |
