eToro earns 4.5/5 stars for commissions and fees and ranks #23 out of 63 brokers, while FxPro scores 4/5 stars and ranks #33. For the popular EUR/USD pair, eToro lists a typical variable spread of 1.0 pip, which is slightly above the industry average but still generally tighter than most FxPro setups. FxPro’s most competitive pricing is on cTrader with an effective EUR/USD cost of about 1.27 pips (spread plus commission). On MetaTrader, FxPro’s variable spreads are higher, around 1.58 pips (market execution on MT4, 1.51 on MT5) and about 1.71 pips with instant execution.
eToro is a market-maker and doesn’t try to win on spread alone; many traders choose it for its social copy trading. Its eToro Club VIP program spans five tiers (Silver to Diamond) for balances from $5,000 to $250,000 and can reduce some non-trading costs with perks like discounted deposit and withdrawal fees, access to Trading Central, and a dedicated account manager.
FxPro’s pricing sits above the industry average overall, but it offers multiple models. On MT4 you can choose variable or fixed spreads (note: MT5 has no fixed-spread option), and you can pick instant execution (no slippage but possible requotes) or market execution (no requotes but possible slippage). The cTrader account uses commission-based pricing and is FxPro’s sharpest option at roughly 1.27 pips all-in on EUR/USD. Active traders can apply for the Elite program with discounts up to 30%, though the net pricing still trails top low-cost rivals.

Dive deeper: Best Copy Trading Platforms.
eToro and FxPro both provide free demo (paper) trading and each offers a proprietary, in‑house trading platform. Both brokers have convenient web-based platforms and support trading directly from charts, plus both include copy trading. One key difference is desktop access: eToro does not offer a Windows download platform, while FxPro does. In independent reviews, eToro earns 4.5/5 stars for Trading Platforms and Tools and ranks #8 out of 63 brokers at ForexBrokers.com, whereas FxPro scores 4/5 stars and ranks #17.
Platform choice also differs when it comes to MetaTrader. eToro does not support MetaTrader 4 (MT4) or MetaTrader 5 (MT5), while FxPro supports both MT4 and MT5 alongside its own platform. The exact number of built-in technical indicators and the number of watchlist columns are not specified here and can vary by platform. In short, eToro suits traders who want an easy web platform and social copy trading, while FxPro is a better fit if you need a Windows desktop platform and full MT4/MT5 access.

eToro and FxPro both check the core boxes for mobile trading: each offers an iPhone app and an Android app, plus price alerts and watchlist syncing between the app and your online account. Both earn 4.5 stars for Mobile Trading Apps, though their standings differ slightly on ForexBrokers.com—eToro ranks #10 out of 63 brokers, while FxPro ranks #15.
For charting, eToro packs 104 technical studies, compared with 65 on FxPro. However, FxPro lets you draw trendlines on charts and automatically saves those drawings, while eToro does not support trendline drawing or auto-saving. If you want more built-in indicators, eToro has the edge; if you value drawing tools and saved annotations, FxPro is the better fit.

Dive deeper: Best Forex Trading Apps.
Both eToro and FxPro are strong for market research. Each broker publishes daily market commentary and streams forex news from top-tier sources like Bloomberg, Reuters, or Dow Jones. You’ll find Trading Central tools, sentiment gauges that show long vs. short positioning, and clear economic calendars on both platforms. Neither broker includes Autochartist or research from Acuity Trading.
The key difference is eToro’s added TipRanks research, which FxPro lacks. That extra layer helps eToro earn a higher Research score: 4.5/5 and ranked 13th out of 63 brokers by ForexBrokers.com, compared with FxPro’s 4/5 and 26th place. If TipRanks and a slightly higher research rating matter to you, eToro has the edge; if you mainly want daily commentary, trusted news, sentiment data, and a calendar, both brokers deliver.

Dive deeper: Best Brokers for Forex Research.
For beginners, both eToro and FxPro provide a clear starting point with video-based learning; each offers at least 10 beginner-focused videos. eToro goes further by hosting online educational webinars at least once a month and by offering a deeper catalog for experienced traders, including 10+ advanced videos. FxPro does not run monthly educational webinars and does not match eToro’s depth at the advanced level.
Independent ratings back this up: eToro scores 4.5 out of 5 stars for Education and ranks #5 out of 63 brokers on ForexBrokers.com, while FxPro earns 4 stars and ranks #18. If you want ongoing webinars and room to grow with more advanced lessons, eToro is the stronger pick; if you mainly need beginner videos to learn the basics, FxPro can still fit the bill.
