The ForexBrokers.com annual forex broker review (six years running) is the most cited in the industry. With over 50,000 words of research across the site, we spend hundreds of hours testing forex brokers each year. Here's how we test.

Trading forex (currencies) in Israel is popular among residents. While recommended, forex brokers are not required to become authorised by the Israel Securities Authority (ISA) to accept residents of Israel as customers.

The Israel Securities Authority is the financial regulatory body in Israel. Website: http://www.isa.gov.il. We recommend Israel residents also follow the ISA on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/IsraelSecurities/.

The ISA was established in 1968 and works to combat securities fraud, insider trading, and activities that could be harmful to Israel’s marketplace. The ISA works hard to combat unregulated offerings and keep investors safe. For a historical breakdown, here's a link to the Israel Securities Authority webpage on Wikipedia.

CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. Between 65% and 82% 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.
