Accounts and eligibility
Sections ↑This profile describes OQtima’s current international website offer under Oqtima Int. Ltd in Seychelles. The separately licensed Oqtima EU Ltd is identified in the entity section; its Cyprus permission does not make the international leverage or contract terms available to EU retail clients.[15][25]

Account choice and qualification
| Consideration | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Pricing structure | One embeds the primary FX charge in its spread; ECN+ adds a currency-specific commission. Frequency alone does not determine which costs less on a given instrument.Source 1 |
| Eligibility | The legal page limits the international offer to permitted jurisdictions outside the EEA. Acceptance is subject to the actual onboarding and verification process.Source 15 |
| Appropriateness | The risk notice requires an assessment during application. A marketing invitation or successful demo registration does not guarantee live-account approval.Source 18 |
| Demo | The website offers demo access on both account routes. A fixed expiry and a public funded-account conversion requirement were not established.Source 12 |
Markets and products
Sections ↑The product pages describe leveraged CFDs across currencies, stock indices, individual shares, metals, energies, cryptocurrencies and ETFs. Exposure to a share, ETF or cryptocurrency through a CFD does not establish ownership of the underlying security or coin.[4]
Market coverage by product family
| Market | Published scope | Practical distinction |
|---|---|---|
| Forex | 80 currency pairs | Major, minor and exotic FX exposureSource 5 |
| Indices | 20 indices in the overview | Index-level exposure rather than a portfolio of owned constituent sharesSource 4 |
| Individual shares | 91 share CFDs | Examples include Apple, Tesla, Netflix and MetaSource 8 |
| ETFs | 100+ ETF CFDs | Sector, country and market-theme exposure; examples reference Vanguard and SchwabSource 9 |
| Precious metals | Three metals in the overview | Dedicated page highlights gold and silverSource 6 |
| Energy | Three energy contracts in the overview | Published symbols include XBRUSD, XTIUSD and XNGUSDSource 7 |
| Crypto | 45+ cryptocurrency pairs | Leveraged exposure with no wallet ownership impliedSource 10 |
Product-specific qualifications
| Product | Condition that matters |
|---|---|
| Shares | The dedicated page advertises zero commission for share CFDs on both accounts. This is distinct from ECN+ FX commission. Financing and spreads can still apply.Source 8 |
| ETF positions | The dedicated page establishes CFD exposure, including long or short trading. A fund’s own characteristics do not supply this CFD’s margin, financing or corporate-action treatment.Source 9 |
| Cryptocurrencies | The risk notice highlights volatility, discontinuation and regulatory restrictions. The page’s instrument range is not a promise of weekend execution in every symbol.Source 18 |
| Headline instrument count | The account page contains both 300+ and 900+ totals. The family-specific descriptions are used here; a reconciled platform inventory was not established.Source 1 |
Spreads, commissions and other costs
Sections ↑Published FX spread observations
| Pair | ECN+ minimum / average | One minimum / average |
|---|---|---|
| EUR/USD | 0.00 / 0.12 | 1.00 / 1.12Source 2 |
| GBP/USD | 0.00 / 0.36 | 1.00 / 1.36Source 2 |
| AUD/USD | 0.00 / 0.14 | 1.00 / 1.14Source 2 |
| EUR/JPY | 0.00 / 0.80 | 1.00 / 1.80Source 2 |
| GBP/JPY | 0.00 / 1.61 | 1.00 / 2.61Source 2 |
| USD/CHF | 0.00 / 0.60 | 1.00 / 1.60Source 2 |
ECN+ FX commission: 100,000 base-currency units
Incomplete pip and sampling definitions prevent a reliable spread-cost calculator input.[2][1]
Other benchmark instruments
| Instrument | Evidence position |
|---|---|
| USD/JPY | An exact spread observation was not present in the inspected FX table.Source 2 |
| Gold | The metal page markets gold exposure without a complete current XAUUSD lot, spread and tick-value specification.Source 6 |
| XTIUSD oil | The energy page lists minimum/average ECN+ values of 4 / 4.01 and One values of 5 / 5.01, but does not define their unit or cash/futures multiplier. No cash WTI cost is inferred.Source 7 |
Financing and exceptional charges
| Charge | Published condition |
|---|---|
| Overnight financing | The spread page describes daily swap charges, with annualised rates shown in the platform. Its displayed formula lacks an explicit contract multiplier; a metal or energy cash calculation needs the terminal specification.Source 2 |
| Minimal-trading withdrawal | 6% may apply: deposits below USD 500 require two lots; otherwise three.Source 16 |
| Frequent withdrawals | Above five monthly requests: 6% may apply.Source 16 |
| Whole balance below USD 50 | Below one lot: USD 20; above: 6%. Exactly one lot/USD 50 is unresolved.Source 16 |
Platforms, execution and risk controls
Sections ↑Platform comparison
| Attribute | MT4 | MT5 |
|---|---|---|
| Access | Desktop, mobile/tablet and WebTrader | Desktop, mobile/tablet and WebTraderSource 12Source 13 |
| Analysis | Custom charts, news and OQtima indicators | 21 time frames; 38 built-in plus OQtima indicatorsSource 12Source 13 |
| Automation | Expert Advisors supported | MQL5 Expert Advisors supportedSource 12Source 13 |
| Position tools | One-click trading and notifications | Hedging and advanced orders; advertised capacity up to 500 ordersSource 12Source 13 |
Execution policy and trading risk
| Mechanism | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Execution model | The policy allows agency or market-maker capacity and describes automated processing without manual dealer intervention. A no-dealing-desk label does not eliminate the contractual counterparty relationship.Source 17 |
| Liquidity routing | Orders may be aggregated across institutional counterparties and execution venues; venue arrangements are reviewed for pricing and execution quality.Source 17 |
| Slippage | The policy describes symmetric slippage: an execution can improve or worsen relative to the requested price.Source 17 |
| Specific instructions | A client’s instruction can prevent the firm from applying parts of its usual best-execution arrangements.Source 17 |
| Margin changes | The risk notice permits changed margin requirements; a client may need additional funds or smaller positions to avoid forced closure.Source 18 |
| Stop-out | 50%; numeric margin-call threshold unestablished.Source 16 |
Keeping automated trading operational
| Issue | Published condition |
|---|---|
| EA server load | Excess messages: warning, then possible position closure/account disabling.Source 16 |
| Terminal connectivity | A VPS allows an EA to keep running while the user’s local device is offline; it does not remove strategy or market risk.Source 14 |
| Platform payment wording | The MT5 page advertises instant withdrawals. Use the funding page’s business-day timetable and contractual charges when planning a payout.Source 13Source 3 |
Deposits, withdrawals and cash
Sections ↑International deposit channels
| Method | Currencies or assets | Published deposit timing |
|---|---|---|
| Cards | USD, EUR | InstantSource 3 |
| International bank transfer | Twelve listed currencies including USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, CAD and AUD | 3–5 business daysSource 3 |
| UK bank transfer | GBP | Instant within UK banking hoursSource 3 |
| Local bank channels | JPY, THB, MYR, IDR, VND, SGD, PHP | About 10 minutes within banking hoursSource 3 |
| STICPAY | CAD, GBP, JPY, USD | InstantSource 3 |
| Crypto | Includes BTC, ETH and USDC; confirm exact network | InstantSource 3 |
Withdrawal workflow and cash distinction
| Topic | Treatment |
|---|---|
| Broker processing | Listed withdrawal routes show within one business day; finance hours are Monday–Friday 09:00–15:00 in the page’s Eastern European Standard Time wording. Bank arrival can take longer.Source 3 |
| Ordinary transfer charges | The page advertises zero broker fees, while external providers may charge. Contractual activity and small-balance exceptions are shown in Costs.Source 3 |
| Rebates and bonuses | Rebates nonwithdrawable; bonuses require qualifying volume.Source 16 |
| Destination and funds | Verified own-origin details and sufficient remaining margin required.Source 16 |
Regulation and client protection
Sections ↑Regulated entities and territorial scope
| Entity | Authority | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| Oqtima Int. Ltd | Seychelles FSA; SD109 | International CFD provider; the FSA register confirms the entity and oqtima.com domain.Source 15Source 24 |
| Oqtima EU Ltd | CySEC; 406/21 | Separate Cyprus investment firm, approved domain oqtima.eu. This profile does not assign the international tariff to its customers.Source 25 |
| Payment affiliate | Ipso Facto Ltd, Cyprus HE445939 | Payment-processing affiliate identified in the privacy policy; this role is not a brokerage licence.Source 20 |
Client protection and compensation boundaries
| Protection | Established position |
|---|---|
| Segregation | The company says client funds are held in segregated trust accounts separate from its operating money. The page does not name each current bank or publish individual balances.Source 21 |
| Negative balance protection | Risk Notice v3 says losses cannot exceed funds available in the trading account when positions close. Losses can still exceed the margin initially assigned to a position.Source 18 |
| Insurance | No current private insurance certificate with insurer, insured entity, policy dates and per-client/aggregate limit was established. No numerical cover is asserted.Source 21Source 15 |
| Entity-specific rights | Seychelles account terms do not establish a Cyprus compensation entitlement. Identify the contract and regulator before relying on a protection associated with another group company.Source 15Source 25 |
Support, dealing and complaints
Sections ↑Published service and complaint routes
Trading interruption and dispute handling
| Issue | Procedure |
|---|---|
| Order channel during an interruption | Platform or telephone instructions permitted.Source 16 |
| Contact is not execution confirmation | The public contact page does not identify a dedicated emergency dealing number. Obtain an authorised dealer’s acknowledgement before treating a requested close as completed.Source 22 |
| Evidence for a complaint | Give the incident date, relevant account/order details, factual grounds and supporting records; an authorised representative needs written authority.Source 19 |
| Acknowledgement | Within five business days.Source 19 |
| Response timetable | Normally within 21 business days; complex cases can extend to 90 business days with written explanation.Source 19 |
| External escalation | The policy permits escalation to the Seychelles FSA, including [email protected].Source 19 |
Research, tools and additional services

| Copy exit | Disconnection and existing-position treatment unspecified.Source 16 |
| Introducing brokers | The partner page describes daily commissions, referral tracking, multilingual materials and a multi-tier structure. Actual rates require the partner agreement.Source 23 |
| Illustrated referral income | The interactive partner illustration is an estimate, dependent on referred clients and their activity; it is not a salary or assured investment return.Source 23 |
Company, entities and history
Sections ↑Corporate identity and changes
| Item | Finding |
|---|---|
| International company | Oqtima Int. Ltd; Seychelles corporate registration 8430031-1, securities-dealer licence SD109.Source 15 |
| Cyprus company history | CySEC records the former name Nordskov Capital Ltd and authorisation on 2 November 2021 under licence 406/21.Source 25 |
| Payment services | Ipso Facto Ltd is described as an affiliate supplying payment processing. A merchant descriptor can therefore differ from the regulated broker’s name.Source 20 |
| Website and account migration | The inspected oqtima.eu route redirected to the international website. A redirect does not establish a transfer of client contracts, money or compensation rights.Source 25 |
| Experience claims | The company refers to its team’s 30+ years of industry experience; this is not used as the broker’s incorporation or launch date.Source 21 |
