EFX advertises that it offers 108+ products to trade, including forex, index, commodities, stock and cryptocurrencies.

Account Types

Apart from demo accounts, EFX claims to offer 3 types of live trading accounts - Standard, Islamic and VIP, with minimum initial deposit requirements of $50, $5,000 and $50,000 respectively.

Leverage

The specified leverage for different account types at EFX varies between 1:200 and 1:400. Specifically, 1:200 for the demo, Standard and Islamic accounts, and 1:400 for the VIP account. It is important to keep in mind that the greater the leverage, the greater the risk of losing your deposited capital. The use of leverage can both work in your favour and against you.

All spreads with EFX are a floating type and scaled with the accounts offered. For example, the spread starts from 1.5 pips on demo, Standard and Islamic accounts, while from 1.2 pips on the VIP account. As for the commission, there is no commission charged on demo and VIP accounts, while the Standard and Islamic accounts have to pay some unspecified commissions.

Trading Platform Available

The platform available for trading at EFX is one of the most notable and preferred trading platforms the market offers - MetaTrader4 for PC, Mac, Android, iPhone, iPad and WebTrader. This trading terminal is highly praised by traders and brokers alike due to its ease of use and great functionality. The MT4 offers top-notch charting and flexible customization options. It is especially popular for its automated trading bots, a.k.a. Expert Advisors.

Deposit & Withdrawal

From the logos shown at the foot of the home page on EFXs official website, we found that this broker seems to accept numerous means of deposit and withdrawal choices, consisting of Visa, Skrill, MasterCard and Neteller. The minimum initial deposit requirement is $50.

Bonuses

EFXs website claims to offer a 20% deposit bonus for a live account. In any case, you should be very cautious if you receive a bonus. Bonuses aren't client funds, they're company funds, and fulfilling the heavy requirements that are usually attached to them can prove a very daunting and difficult task. Note that brokers are prohibited from using bonuses and promotions by all leading regulators.
