Fees

Comparing commissions and fees, FxPro earns 4 stars and ranks 29 out of 63 brokers at ForexBrokers.com, while Questrade earns 3.5 stars and ranks 33 out of 63. In real-world costs, FxPro’s platform choice and execution type can change your total spread, and its best pricing on cTrader generally beats Questrade’s published target spread for a popular pair like EUR/USD.

FxPro overview: Pricing is generally above the industry average, but its cTrader account uses commission-based pricing with an effective EUR/USD cost of about 1.27 pips (0.37-pip average spread plus a 0.9-pip commission-equivalent, based on August 2020 data). On MT4/MT5 with variable spreads, EUR/USD was about 1.58 pips on MT4 (market execution), 1.51 pips on MT5, and 1.71 pips with instant execution; MT5 does not offer fixed spreads. Execution choices matter: instant execution can requote but avoids slippage, while market execution can slip but avoids requotes. Also, cTrader has no minimum stop/limit distance, whereas MetaTrader requires at least 1 pip. FxPro’s Elite/Active Trader discounts can reach up to 30%, though overall pricing still trails top low-cost rivals.

Questrade overview: The target spread on EUR/USD is 1.9 pips, which is steep versus the industry average and higher than FxPro’s best cTrader rate. That helps explain Questrade’s lower placement for commissions and fees compared with FxPro (3.5 stars and #33 vs. 4 stars and #29).

Forex trading apps

FxPro and Questrade both deliver full-featured mobile trading apps for iPhone and Android.

Independent reviews echo that gap: ForexBrokers.com rates FxPro’s mobile trading app 4.5 stars and ranks it 15th out of 63 brokers, while Questrade earns 4 stars and ranks 28th.

Market research

Comparing FxPro vs Questrade for market research, FxPro stands out for day-to-day insights: it provides daily market commentary, top-tier forex news (from sources like Bloomberg/Reuters/Dow Jones), Trading Central tools, a sentiment indicator showing long/short positioning, and an economic calendar. Questrade skips daily commentary, premium forex news, sentiment data, and an economic calendar, but it does include Autochartist for pattern recognition, Trading Central, and TipRanks for stock research (features FxPro lacks). Neither broker offers tools from Acuity Trading.

If you value live news flow, daily analysis, and sentiment to guide timing, FxPro is the stronger pick. If you prefer chart pattern alerts and equity-focused insights, Questrade’s Autochartist and TipRanks are appealing. According to ForexBrokers.com, FxPro earns 4 stars and ranks #23 out of 63 brokers for Research, while Questrade earns 3.5 stars and ranks #34.

Beginners and education

FxPro vs Questrade: For beginners learning forex and CFDs, FxPro offers more help out of the gate thanks to at least 10 beginner-focused trading videos. Questrade doesn’t reach that video count. Neither broker runs monthly client webinars, and neither provides 10 or more advanced video lessons, so live sessions and deep-dive videos are limited at both.

Ratings back up the gap for new traders: FxPro earns 4 out of 5 stars for Education and ranks 17th out of 63 brokers at ForexBrokers.com, while Questrade scores 3.5 stars and ranks 28th. If you want a larger beginner video library to start learning quickly, FxPro is the stronger pick; if you’re fine with fewer videos and self-guided reading, Questrade can still be a fit.
