CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. Trade responsibly: Capital is at risk. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money.
FxPro competes among the top MetaTrader and cTrader brokers, featuring multiple account options, cost structures, and trading platforms. It provides its own proprietary FxPro Edge app, available for web and mobile, alongside access to the BnkPro app and Invest Web platform.
FxPro’s primary drawback is its higher-than-average pricing, which just can’t compete with the lowest-cost forex brokers, even on its lowest spreads available via its cTrader platform offering.

FxPro pros & cons
Pros
- Wide range of 2,200+ CFDs including forex, stocks, and commodities.
- Offers MetaTrader, cTrader, and its own FxPro Edge platform.
- Strong algo trading support with fast execution for large orders.
Cons
- Trading costs are higher than top low-cost forex brokers.
- FxPro Edge still lags behind leading proprietary platforms.
- Limited educational content compared to industry leaders.
My top takeaways on FxPro in 2025:
- FxPro is best known for its MetaTrader (both MT4 and MT5) and cTrader platform offerings, available for desktop, web, and mobile.
- FxPro provides fully-transparent execution methods that vary by account type – with more than 83% of market orders executed at the requested price or better, and less than 1% of instant orders requoted in 2024.
- FxPro's cTrader account offering features lower spreads and helped earn the broker best in class for Algo Trading in 2025.
- The FxPro Edge platform contains some nice features that active traders may appreciate, including the ability to drag-to-modify stop-loss and limit orders as well as customising the platform with modular windows.
- Unless you are on its VIP account, the default pricing at FxPro isn't quite competitive enough to challenge industry leaders such as IG and CMC Markets.

Range of investments
The range of symbols available at FxPro will largely depend on your chosen trading platform. For traders that choose to use MetaTrader’s suite of platforms, FxPro offers over 2249 CFDs, including forex, shares, indices, metals, and cryptocurrencies, and even more on its cTrader offering, compared to MetaTrader. There are also thousands of shares available to trade in FxPro Group's BnkPro app, which requires a separate account. The following table summarizes the different investment products available to FxPro clients.
Cryptocurrency: Cryptocurrency trading is available at FxPro through CFDs, but not available through trading the underlying asset (e.g. buying Bitcoin). Note: Crypto CFDs are not available to retail traders from any broker's U.K. entity, nor to U.K. residents.

FxPro fees
FxPro's pricing is higher than the industry average, putting it at a disadvantage compared to industry peers like Pepperstone or IC Markets, who both also offer the full MetaTrader and cTrader suites. That said, VIP account holders get up to 30% discounts on trading spreads and commissions, and is available if you qualify by deposit size or trading volumes.
Execution method: On FxPro’s MT4 offering, traders can choose from its spread-only Standard account or commission-based Raw+ account which offer market execution. The Raw+ account is available for MT4 and MT5 accounts, whereas the Elite account offers the same as the Raw+ but adds the ability to receive discount perks and rebates, and requires a $30,000 deposit. It's worth adding that on cTrader there is no minimum distance for stop and limit orders, whereas on MetaTrader FxPro requires at least 1 pip of distance from the entry price when you enter a stop or limit order, even in its Elite account.
Commissions: FxPro’s most competitive spreads are available on its cTrader platform, which features commission-based pricing. FxPro's effective spread for trading the EUR/USD pair on cTrader is roughly 1.27 pips. This figure takes into account FxPro’s average spread (from August 2020) of 0.37 pips, as well as a 0.9 pip commission-equivalent.
Active traders: FxPro offers an Active Trader program as part of its Elite account offering. With discounts of up to 30% similar to its VIP account, I consider this benefit to be pretty generous – though the net result still trails behind similar programs from top competitors like FOREX.com, IG, and Saxo.
Steven's expert take
"FxPro's best feature by far is its ability to execute large orders, placed with no minimum distance away from the current market price."

Mobile Trading Apps
Apps overview: FxPro provides its own proprietary FxPro Edge app for trading, account management, and basic market news, as well as a third-party mobile lineup designed by the same providers that power its desktop and web-based platforms: MetaTrader (MetaQuotes) and cTrader (Spotware). FxPro also offers the BnkPro app for share trading, which will include a Mastercard debit card and banking services through its Bahamas-regulated Bank, known as BankPro, which is part of the FxPro Group.
Ease of use: FxPro Direct is FxPro's proprietary mobile app, which supports trading for users that have a CFD account, and has evolved from being initially optimized for account management into a modern day trading app. It features basic charts and and other features found in the web version. The FxPro Edge platform is available for mobile (though I was not able to install it due to a country restriction in the Google Play store). Overall, FxPro offers four mobile apps for you to choose from, including MT4, MT5, cTrader, and its flagship FxPro Edge app.

Trading platforms
Due to the availability of MetaTrader, cTrader, and its own proprietary FxPro Edge web platform, traders at FxPro have a diverse selection of platform options that support a variety of trading styles. While FxPro Edge clearly trails platform leaders such as Saxo, CMC Markets, and IG, it’s made considerable progress as a modern trading platform with recent improvements, helping FxPro stand out from the crowded field of MetaTrader-only brokers. I enjoyed using the FxPro Edge platform and customizing it, including the animated ticker and modular windows that you can drag and drop in place.
Platforms overview: FxPro offers three platforms in total: FxPro Edge, MetaTrader, and cTrader. FxPro Edge is FxPro’s in-house web-based platform, which features robust charts and a responsive design. The full MetaTrader suite (MT4 and MT5) is also available for web and desktop, along with the FxPro cTrader platform and the cAlgo desktop app for algo trading.

Charting: The FxPro Edge platform features smooth charting, with 53 indicators and several selectable chart types. For comparison, cTrader has 76 indicators and dozens of drawing tools, and boasts a sleeker charting experience than you’ll find with MetaTrader. One feature I really appreciated in the FxPro Edge platform is not just the ability to drag-to-modify a stop-loss or limit order, but also the ability to add stop-loss and limit orders using this drag-and-drop feature.
Trading tools: Signals from Trading Central are available as a plugin for MetaTrader. Besides the cTrader and MetaTrader platform suites, the FxPro Edge platform comes with a few default layouts, as well as drag-and-drop modules and widgets. Overall, FxPro has a good range of tools and third-party solutions across its available platforms, yet still has room to improve to match category leaders.

Research
FxPro provides daily market updates and analysis on its blog, along with content from third-party providers. FxPro's in-house staff has produced good-quality articles, but FxPro's YouTube channel mostly features webinars, platform tutorials, and promotional videos (the exception being FxPro’s Russian YouTube channel, which does produce daily videos). For comparison, XM Group and Tickmill produce numerous daily research videos.
Research overview: FxPro's dedicated blog offers multiple daily articles, including its Market Overview, Technical Analysis, and Crypto Review series. These articles provide a well-organized daily outlook, and are available within the FxPro Edge platform. Headlines from Dow Jones International (DJI) stream in FxPro’s MetaTrader platform offering – while FxPro Edge features an integrated economic calendar and news module with market analysis.
Market news and analysis: FxPro’s client portal provides access to sentiment data for various symbols and forex pairs, along with trading session times and a summary of gainers and losers. There is also an integrated economic calendar. I also enjoyed the Fx Squawk headlines in the client portal and platform, which includes the European Briefing, U.S. Briefing, and the Closing Wrap as daily reports. This is a category where FxPro has made slow but steady progress, including on its blog.

Education
FxPro’s education section provides written materials along with a handful of educational videos. FxPro has built a good foundation of educational content, yet the quantity and scope of available materials falls behind what is offered by education leaders such as IG, Saxo, and FXCM. This is one category where FxPro has considerable room to improve, in terms of expanding its selection and depth and formats for educational material across all levels of trader experience.
Learning center: FxPro's educational section has a useful mini card feature, with snippets of information that briefly explain concepts like “What is a stop out?” There are 36 cards in the Psychology section, and each of its four other learning areas contain a collection of mini cards. FxPro has added a nice touch to this section by including a progress tracking feature, allowing traders to keep track of which modules or chapters they’ve finished.

Room for improvement: Expanding its coverage, adding more videos, and including interactive quizzes would balance out the FxPro educational offering. Also, re-introducing a consistent schedule of daily or weekly webinars could help further balance FxPro's educational offering.

Final thoughts
FxPro is a well-capitalized, trustworthy broker that offers multiple platform options, multiple trade execution methods, and can cleanly execute large orders for professional traders.
However, pricing is higher than the industry average at FxPro, and its proprietary FxPro Edge app is a limited platform option that isn’t currently available for mobile.
FxPro provides numerous options for algorithmic trading, including platforms and execution methods which allow it to cater well to the needs of active traders that use automated trading systems. As a result, FxPro earned Best in Class honors for Algo Trading and MetaTrader in our 2025 Annual Awards.
