SquaredFinancial has a large range of tradable assets, low admin fees, and an Elite account with very low trading costs. This combination will appeal to many traders, though many beginners may be put off by the high minimum deposit on the Elite account. SquaredFinancial has two trading accounts on both the MT4 and MT5 trading platforms. The SquaredPro Account is an entry-level account with no minimum deposit and trading costs included in its variable spreads, which start at [fxs-broker-property identifier="eur_usd_spread_smallest_account"] pips on the EUR/USD. SquaredFinancial's commission-based Elite account has a minimum deposit requirement of 500 USD, excluding many beginner traders, but offers spreads of 0 pips on the EUR/USD in exchange for a low commission of 5 USD, making it one of the lowest-cost trading accounts in the industry. SquaredFinancial's clients are not charged for making deposits, and withdrawals only incur a fee if there has been no trading on the account. SquaredFinancial offers over 10,000 financial instruments to trade, a much broader selection of assets than is typically available at other brokers, including over 40 forex pairs, 9000 share CFDs, 250 ETFs, commodities, and cryptocurrencies.

Founded in 1999, Spreadex is a large sports and spread betting broker with a CFD division that offers a low-cost trading environment on a wide range of tradable assets. It offers a proprietary web platform that integrates with TradingView. Spreadex offers one live commission-free CFD account with no minimum deposit requirement and spreads starting at [fxs-broker-property identifier="eur_usd_spread_smallest_account"] pips on the EUR/USD, which is significantly tighter than other similar brokers. Spreadex also stands out for the number of financial assets on offer, including over 3000 share CFDs, 200 ETFs, 69 Forex pairs, 31 commodities, indices, and a small range of cryptocurrencies (though under FCA regulations cryptos are only available for professional traders). The only real drawback for traders considering Spreadex is that it offers no demo account. However, it has vastly improved the education and market analysis on offer, which will help traders make better trading decisions. Overall, Spreadex will appeal to traders who value a low-cost trading environment and a vast range of tradable assets.
