About ForexMart
Company Overview
ForexMart is the trading name of Instant Trading Eu Ltd, a Cyprus Investment Firm incorporated in 2020 and regulated by the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC) under license number 266/15. The broker is based in Limassol, Cyprus, and holds an additional offshore registration with the Financial Services Commission (FSC) in the British Virgin Islands. Despite its recent incorporation, the CySEC license dates to 2015, indicating a prior operational history of the legal entity.
Regulatory Environment
ForexMart’s primary regulator, CySEC, provides a framework of investor protection under EU MiFID II rules, including membership in the Investor Compensation Fund (ICF) covering eligible retail clients up to €20,000. The broker also complies with negative balance protection and leverage limits (maximum 1:30 for retail). The additional FSC offshore regulation is less stringent and primarily serves international clients outside the EU.
Account Types and Minimum Deposits
ForexMart offers three account tiers: Basic (€200 minimum), Gold (€300,000 minimum), and Platinum (€1,000,000 minimum). The Basic account is designed for retail traders with fixed spreads from 4 pips and no commissions. Gold and Platinum accounts cater to high-net-worth individuals, offering tighter fixed spreads (from 2 pips) but requiring substantial capital. All accounts use Market Execution and are available in EUR, USD, and CZK.
Trading Instruments and Platforms
The broker provides access to over 100 instruments across forex, shares, metals, and cryptocurrencies, all offered as CFDs. Trading is executed exclusively on MetaTrader 4 (MT4), a widely used platform available on desktop, web, and mobile. ForexMart emphasizes its fixed spreads and claims no hidden costs, though spreads are wider than typical variable-spread brokers.
Fees and Deposits
ForexMart does not charge deposit fees and reimburses client deposit costs, but withdrawal fees vary by method. The broker reserves the right to claw back compensated fees if clients engage in illegal activity or fail to meet trading activity requirements. This policy introduces potential complexity for infrequent traders.
