| Review | Trade Nation Review | MultiBank Review |
Comparing forex brokers side by side is no easy task. For our 2023 annual forex broker review, we spent hundreds of hours assessing 62 forex and CFD brokerages to find the best forex broker. Let's compare Trade Nation vs MultiBank.

For trading tools, MultiBank offers a better experience. With research, Trade Nation offers superior market research. Finally, we found MultiBank to provide better mobile trading apps.

Trade Nation’s well-designed, easy-to-use trading app is an innovative trading platform that’s great for beginner forex and CFD traders. However, if you’re a seasoned trader, you may find that Trade Nation lacks advanced features compared to the best trading platforms.
MultiBank Group, in operation since 2005, is home to numerous global brands and regulated in jurisdictions all over the world. A multi-asset broker, MultiBank offers forex and CFDs through the MetaTrader and cTrader platform suites (though not all markets are readily available) as well as underlying crypto assets via its regulated crypto exchange. On the negative side, the broker’s market research offering is unimpressive and educational content is entirely absent; MultiBank’s poor performance in these important categories drags down its Overall rating.
