In this head to head comparison of FxPro vs easyMarkets, we will compare the trading platforms, mobile apps, range of investments, costs, market research, and more. Let's dive in.
CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. Between 51% and 89% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money.
FxPro and easyMarkets are reputable online brokers with years of industry experience. Founded in 2006 and 2001 respectively, both companies have shown longevity, though neither is publicly traded on a stock exchange. FxPro holds a competitive edge as a licensed bank, while easyMarkets does not have this banking status. According to ForexBrokers.com, FxPro achieves a high trust score of 93, placing it in the highly trusted category, while easyMarkets has a trust score of 84, marking it as trusted but slightly behind FxPro in terms of perceived reliability.
When it comes to regulatory licenses, both FxPro and easyMarkets hold two Tier-1 licenses, which are top-tier and signal high trust. Additionally, each broker holds one Tier-2 license, reinforcing their credibility as trusted entities in the forex trading world. These licenses enhance client confidence, ensuring safe and secure trading experiences for their users.

Comparing commissions and fees, FxPro generally sits above the industry average, while easyMarkets can be cheaper depending on the platform you use. For this category, FxPro is rated 4 stars and ranked #33 out of 63 brokers, whereas easyMarkets is rated 3.5 stars and ranked #53 out of 63.
FxPro’s most competitive pricing is on cTrader, where EUR/USD works out to about 1.27 pips all-in (0.37-pip average spread plus a 0.9-pip commission equivalent). On MT4 and MT5, spreads are variable: about 1.58 pips on MT4 with market execution (1.71 pips with instant execution) and roughly 1.51 pips on MT5. Execution matters: instant execution can requote but won’t slip, while market execution avoids requotes but can slip. Order rules also differ—cTrader has no minimum distance for stops/limits, whereas MetaTrader requires at least 1 pip—even on the Elite account. FxPro’s Elite/Active Trader program offers up to 30% discounts, but overall pricing still isn’t among the very lowest.
easyMarkets uses fixed spreads of 0.8 pips for EUR/USD on its own platform and TradingView, a clear, predictable cost that can undercut FxPro’s cTrader all-in rate. On MT4, easyMarkets’ Standard account is 1.7 pips (higher than FxPro’s MT4 market-execution average), while its VIP account drops to 0.7 pips. On MT5, easyMarkets offers variable spreads starting from 0.7 pips, which can be lower than FxPro’s published averages. In short: easyMarkets can be cheaper on its proprietary platform or VIP tiers, while FxPro is most competitive on cTrader but generally pricier overall.

FxPro offers a wider range of investments than easyMarkets. You get 2,249 tradeable symbols at FxPro versus 230 at easyMarkets, along with 70 forex pairs compared with 63. Both brokers support forex trading (CFD/spot), and both provide copy trading. Reflecting the broader selection, FxPro earns 4 stars for Range of Investments and ranks 29th out of 63 brokers, while easyMarkets scores 3.5 stars and ranks 55th.
Neither broker lets you buy actual U.S.-listed shares directly (not CFDs), and neither sells real cryptocurrency. However, FxPro stands out by offering access to international exchange‑traded shares (not CFDs), which easyMarkets does not. Both brokers let you trade cryptocurrency via derivatives. If you want the biggest menu of instruments and some access to real international shares, FxPro is the stronger pick; if you prefer a simpler lineup focused on core markets, easyMarkets fits the bill.

Both FxPro and easyMarkets offer full-featured mobile trading apps for iPhone and Android, with synced watchlists and real-time quotes. Charting is strong on both: you can draw trendlines and switch among multiple time frames. easyMarkets edges ahead on indicator depth with 81 technical studies versus FxPro’s 65. However, FxPro includes price alerts (easyMarkets does not) and auto-saves your chart drawings (easyMarkets does not), which can make day-to-day trading and analysis smoother for many users.
Ratings reflect these trade-offs. FxPro earns 4.5 stars and ranks #15 out of 63 brokers for Mobile Trading Apps at ForexBrokers.com, while easyMarkets holds 4 stars and ranks #32. If you value price alerts and saved chart work on the go, the FxPro mobile app is the safer pick. If a larger library of indicators is your priority and alerts aren’t essential, easyMarkets could fit your needs.
