RoboForex is an international forex broker that has been in the market since 2009 and works with retail traders. The company operates through a single legal entity - RoboForex Ltd (Belize), which is regulated by the local FSC under licence 9759600, and has no oversight from a major European or British regulator. Services are not provided to residents of the EU, the UK, the USA, Russia, Canada, Japan, Australia and a number of other countries.

The basic conditions look modest on entry but broad in scope: a minimum deposit from $10, leverage up to 1:2000, eight asset classes and more than 12,000 instruments, several platforms and well-developed copy trading.

ℹ INFO RoboForex is an offshore platform with a low entry threshold, a wide range of instruments and a large number of services such as copy trading, VPS and analytics. Legally it is a single jurisdiction with no European oversight, and the main protection rests on negative balance and membership in The Financial Commission.

About the broker​

RoboForex is part of the RoboForex Group, whose history dates back to 2009. This is a CFD broker, so you trade contracts for difference rather than the assets themselves, and a losing trade can wipe out a significant part of or your entire deposit.
  • In business since 2009 - more than 17 years on the market;
  • Clients around the world, but not in the EU, the UK, the USA, Canada, Japan, Australia and other restricted countries;
  • Minimum deposit - from $10;
  • Maximum leverage - up to 1:2000 on Pro and ProCent accounts;
  • Platforms - MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5, R StocksTrader, WebTrader and mobile apps;
  • A large client base with millions of accounts opened.

Regulation and legal structure​

The broker has a single, but clearly defined, jurisdiction. RoboForex Ltd is registered in Belize and regulated by the local Financial Services Commission (FSC) under licence 9759600 and registration number 000001272 in accordance with the Securities Industry Act 2021.
  • The Belize FSC is the country's non-bank financial regulator, without European or British MiFID standards;
  • RoboForex is a member of The Financial Commission (category A) with dispute resolution and a compensation fund of up to EUR 20,000 per case;
  • A civil liability insurance programme is in place for up to EUR 2.5 million;
  • Negative balance protection and the Verify My Trade execution-quality certificate are enabled.
⚠ IMPORTANT RoboForex is an offshore broker in a single jurisdiction with no European oversight. The compensation fund here is limited to membership in The Financial Commission and does not cover the amounts familiar from the UK's FSCS or the European ICF, so the level of protection should be weighed up before you deposit.


A separate limitation is geography. The company explicitly states that it does not operate in, or promote services to, a number of countries.
  • Not for EU and UK clients - the broker does not target these markets;
  • Not available in the USA, Canada, Japan, Australia, Russia, Ukraine, Belarus and other restricted jurisdictions;
  • Marketing is not aimed at Malaysian residents and several other countries;
  • The list of restricted countries is not exhaustive.
The official website carries a risk warning: 75.85% of retail client accounts lose money when trading CFDs with this provider. For Belize this is a standard formulation, but it directly reflects the high share of losing accounts.


Trading accounts​

The account lineup is built around the MetaTrader platforms and the proprietary R StocksTrader, plus a cent version for beginners. The main types differ in spread, commission and leverage.

ProCent10 USDfrom 1.3 pipsnoneup to 1:2000MT4 / MT5

Prime10 USDfrom 0 pipsper symbolup to 1:300MT4 / MT5
ECN10 USDfrom 0 pipsfrom 20 USD per 1 mlnup to 1:500MT4 / MT5

Spreads and commissions are shown at their base values; exact figures depend on the instrument. The minimum deposit on all main account types is 10 USD.

ℹ INFO The professional accounts split by the principle of "spread or commission". On Pro and ProCent there is no commission, but the spread is higher; on Prime and especially ECN the spread is lower and a commission appears. For testing strategies, the cent ProCent is convenient, where the value and risks are a hundred times smaller.


There is also an R StocksTrader account on the platform of the same name: more than 12,000 instruments (stocks, indices, ETFs), leverage up to 1:500 and spreads from 0 pips. It suits those who want to trade the stock market, not just forex.

Trading conditions​

The basic conditions depend on the account type, but there are common features too. Execution is market-based, and on the ECN account it follows the ECN model with interbank routing.
  • Execution - Market Execution on Pro, Prime and ProCent; ECN execution on the ECN account;
  • Spreads - from 1.3 pips on Pro and ProCent, from 0 pips on Prime and ECN;
  • Commission - none on Pro and ProCent, from 20 USD per 1 mln of turnover on ECN, per symbol on Prime;
  • Leverage - up to 1:2000 on Pro and ProCent, up to 1:500 on ECN, up to 1:300 on Prime, but dependent on the instrument;
  • Scalping, hedging and Expert Advisors - allowed;
  • Order size - from 0.01 lots on standard accounts, from 0.1 cent lots on ProCent;
  • Asset leverage is lower than on forex: stocks and ETFs up to 1:20, indices and energies up to 1:100, crypto up to 1:500;
  • A Swap-Free option is available - trading without swap charges.
ℹ INFO The stated leverage of up to 1:2000 is an option, not a universal value. On stocks and ETFs it drops to 1:20, on indices and energies to 1:100, and on crypto the broker sets fixed levels. When calculating risk, you should base it on the instrument rather than the maximum figure.


Instruments​

RoboForex gives access to eight asset classes, and on the R StocksTrader platform to more than 12,000 instruments. The classic set on MT accounts is more compact.
  • Forex - 28 currency pairs, including majors and crosses;
  • Metals - gold, silver and other precious metals;
  • Stocks - real stocks and CFDs on US and European stocks;
  • Indices - CFDs on the world's major indices;
  • ETFs - more than 1,000 exchange-traded funds;
  • Cryptocurrencies - CFDs on Bitcoin, Ethereum and other coins;
  • Energies - oil, natural gas and others;
  • Soft commodities - CFDs and ETFs on grain, coffee, sugar.
The crypto and especially the equity segment are broad here, but all of it is CFD rather than ownership of the assets themselves. Crypto trading is available almost around the clock.

Platforms​

  • MetaTrader 4 - the forex classic with a wide choice of Expert Advisors and indicators;
  • MetaTrader 5 - a more modern terminal with extra timeframes and asset classes;
  • R StocksTrader - the proprietary platform for stocks, indices and ETFs, more than 12,000 instruments;
  • WebTrader and MobileTrader - browser and mobile versions, including access to MT accounts from your phone.
The broker also develops Telegram trading and its own iOS and Android apps, so you can keep an eye on the market from any device.

Deposits and withdrawals​

The company states 0% commission on deposits and withdrawals, but with a caveat on free cash-outs - three times a month. There are dozens of deposit methods.
  • Deposit - bank cards (Visa, MasterCard), bank transfers, e-wallets (Skrill, Neteller), cryptocurrencies;
  • Deposit fee - 0% according to the company;
  • Withdrawal - 0% three times a month, after which a fee per method may apply;
  • Speed - 93.2% of withdrawal requests are processed within one minute;
  • Account currencies - USD, EUR and others;
  • Minimum deposit - 10 USD; the minimum withdrawal may differ by method.
⚠ IMPORTANT Free withdrawals apply three times a month, not permanently. If you withdraw more often, the broker may charge a fee for each method. For active traders who take profits frequently, this should be taken into account when calculating costs.


Additional services​

  • Copy trading - more than 2,000 strategies from experienced traders with risk control;
  • Analytics - Acuity auto-analysis, market forecasts, an economic calendar and calculators;
  • Free VPS - a remote server for round-the-clock Expert Advisor operation;

  • VIP client - extended conditions and a personal manager;
  • Education - resources for beginners, a glossary, help and demo accounts;
  • Partner programme - Infinity Program for attracting clients with volume-based payouts.
There is no classic discretionary management here - instead of PAMM there is copy trading, where the investor controls funds and risk themselves.

Strengths​

  • More than 17 years in business - a long history and resilience across market cycles;
  • Wide coverage - eight asset classes and more than 12,000 instruments on R StocksTrader;
  • Low entry threshold - from $10, plus a cent account for testing;
  • High leverage up to 1:2000 and professional account types (Prime, ECN);
  • Notable protection - negative balance, a compensation fund of up to EUR 20,000 and EUR 2.5 million insurance;

Much of this is genuinely valuable for an experienced trader. But the same features create risks that are worth remembering before opening an account.
