InvestingFox is an online broker headquartered in Bratislava, Slovakia, with a registered address at Slávičie údolie 106, 811 02 Bratislava - Staré Mesto. The company was founded on 21 March 2024 and operates under the brand of CAPITAL MARKETS, o.c.p., a.s., a securities trader established in 2007.

As a multi-asset broker, InvestingFox targets a broad range of traders, from beginners to high-net-worth individuals, by offering tiered account structures with high minimum deposits for premium tiers. The broker provides trading in forex, commodities, indices, and contract for differences (CFDs) on shares.

InvestingFox states on its website that it is regulated by the National Bank of Slovakia (NBS) under permit No. OPK-2297/2007-PLP, granted on 30 October 2007. The company claims membership in the Securities Dealers Association and the American Chamber of Commerce.

However, FXCanary's internal regulatory records do not currently list a specific licence for InvestingFox or its parent entity. Traders are advised to independently verify the regulatory status with the NBS before engaging with the broker. The absence of a confirmed licence in our database warrants caution, as regulatory oversight is a critical factor for investor protection.

InvestingFox provides six account tiers: Beginner (€0 minimum deposit), Basic (€20,000), Advanced (€100,000), Professional (€500,000), Platinum (€1,000,000), and VIP (€10,000,000). All accounts offer access to over 1,000 instruments, no deposit or withdrawal fees, no account maintenance fees, and interest on available funds.

Higher-tier accounts include additional benefits: Advanced accounts provide spreads 20% lower than Basic, access to educational courses (Axil Academy), and a personal relationship manager. Professional accounts offer spreads 40% lower than Basic and include Autochartist. Platinum and VIP accounts are reserved for very high net worth clients, but specific benefits for these tiers are not detailed on the website.

The broker exclusively offers the MetaTrader 5 (MT5) platform, a widely used multi-asset trading platform known for its advanced charting tools, technical indicators, and support for automated trading via Expert Advisors. MT5 is available for desktop, web, and mobile devices.

Trading instruments include forex pairs, commodities (e.g., gold, oil), indices (e.g., S&P 500, FTSE 100), and CFD shares. The broker does not offer physical shares or options, focusing on derivatives. Leverage is advertised up to 1:30, compliant with ESMA rules for retail clients, though professional clients may receive higher leverage.

Fund transfers at InvestingFox are free of charge for bank transfers (both deposits and withdrawals). Credit card deposits incur a 1% fee, while withdrawals are free. The minimum deposit via bank transfer is €1, while credit card deposits require a minimum of €500 and a maximum of €10,000 per transaction. Withdrawals have no minimum or maximum limits.

The broker supports multiple currencies: EUR, CZK, USD, JPY, CAD, AUD, CHF, GBP, and PLN. This multi-currency feature allows clients to trade and hold funds in their preferred currency without conversion fees. The website emphasises that there are no account opening or maintenance fees.

InvestingFox charges spreads and commissions on trades. For physical shares (CFDs), the commission is 1% of the trade volume, with a minimum of 5 EUR/USD/CZK per side. Spreads are advertised from 0.01 pips for forex and 0.01 EUR for shares. The broker also applies swaps (overnight financing) on positions held after the daily rollover.

There are no fees for account opening, account maintenance, or deposit/withdrawal by bank transfer. However, credit card deposits carry a 1% fee. Inactivity fees are not mentioned, but traders should review the full price list on the broker's website for any hidden charges.

InvestingFox appears to target both retail and professional traders, with a strong emphasis on high-net-worth individuals given the significant minimum deposits for advanced tiers. The Beginner account with a €0 minimum deposit lowers the barrier for new traders, but the premium accounts cater to experienced investors who can benefit from lower spreads and dedicated support.

The broker's offering of educational resources (Axil Academy) and tools like Autochartist suggests a focus on traders who value analytical support. However, the lack of independent regulatory confirmation may deter risk-averse traders.
