Empowering Forex traders worldwide with independent broker reviews, unbiased prop firm evaluations, and advanced trade analytics. The FxScouts Group AB owns and manages all brands and domains within the FxScouts network, ensuring a global presence and reach. Discover more about our expertise below.
Founded in Stockholm, Sweden, in 2011, the FxScouts Group was born out of a clear, singular mission: to help retail Forex traders navigate the financial markets safely, avoid bad actors, and launch their trading careers with absolute confidence.
Over the years, the trading landscape has expanded dramatically. Today, successful traders aren’t just looking for the right broker—they are looking for trusted prop firm funding and sophisticated tools to optimise their performance. To help traders bridge the gap between practising and becoming truly profitable, we launched the FxScouts Trading Journal – a powerful, free analytics tool designed to help traders eliminate emotional errors and build a verifiable track record.
The FxScouts network has evolved from an independent broker review site into a comprehensive trading ecosystem. FxScouts Group AB owns, manages, and operates a world-class network of domains dedicated to protecting a trader’s capital, vetting the industry’s top players, and providing actionable performance data.
