Markets4you review.

Overview

TrueBroker is a free broker safety checker, and this page is our review of Markets4you, scored 6.8 out of 10 across regulation, fees, platform, support and reviews.

The name Markets4you sits over more than one company, and which one a visitor deals with depends on which language or country version of the site they land on. English-language pages we checked name the operating entity as E-Global Trade & Finance Group, Inc., incorporated in the British Virgin Islands and, per the firm’s Australian legal page, licensed by the BVI FSC under SIBA/L/12/1027. The Indonesian-language pages we checked instead name E-Global Trade & Finance SVG LLC, registered in St. Vincent and the Grenadines under 1440 LLC 2021, described there only as a member of The Financial Commission. The BVI FSC register confirms E-Global Trade & Finance Group, Inc. as regulated for Arranging Deals in Investments and Dealing as Principal, though the export carries no licence numbers, so “SIBA/L/12/1027” remains the firm’s own figure rather than a confirmed one, and that snapshot is 35 days old. The St Vincent and the Grenadines FSA entity search confirms E-Global Trade & Finance SVG LLC as registration 1440, LLC-Continued, status Active, incorporated 2021-09-27, that register incorporates companies and does not license forex or CFD brokers, so it confirms the company only, not a financial licence for it. The Financial Commission member check table lists Markets4you (E-Global Trade & Finance SVG LTD) as a member with compensation fund cover of EUR 20,000, but the Financial Commission is a private dispute-resolution body brokers pay to join, not a regulator. A third name, Trade4you International, appears in the firm’s Australian legal page as holding Mauritius FSC licence GB21026460; the FSC Mauritius Online Public Register lists Trade4you International as holding SEC-2.1B Investment Dealer (Full Service Dealer excluding Underwriting), licensed 06/09/2021, though the register itself does not publish a licence number, so GB21026460 is likewise the firm’s own figure. We searched 1441 warning-list entries mirrored from CYSEC, the FCA and FSC Mauritius, running a positive control on 7 registers first so an empty result means absence rather than a broken search, and Markets4you appears on none of them, a result that covers only those three lists, not every regulator.

Overview Table

Facts List

• English-language pages name E-Global Trade & Finance Group, Inc. (British Virgin Islands) as the operating entity; Indonesian-language pages name E-Global Trade & Finance SVG LLC (St. Vincent and the Grenadines) instead.
• The BVI FSC register confirms E-Global Trade & Finance Group, Inc. as regulated for Arranging Deals in Investments and Dealing as Principal, though it does not publish the licence number itself, and our snapshot of that register is 35 days old.
• The FSC Mauritius register confirms Trade4you International holds an SEC-2.1B Investment Dealer licence dated 06/09/2021, again without a published licence number to check against GB21026460.
• The St Vincent and the Grenadines FSA register confirms E-Global Trade & Finance SVG LLC as an active company, registration 1440, but that register does not license financial firms.
• The Financial Commission lists Markets4you as a member with EUR 20,000 compensation fund cover; membership there is bought, not licensed.
• We searched 1441 warning-list entries mirrored from CYSEC, the FCA and FSC Mauritius and found no match for this firm.

Key Takeaways

Markets4you scores 6.8 overall, pulled down hard by a regulation score of 4.5 against a fees score of 8.3 and a platform score of 8.3. The gap between those numbers is the story here: the trading conditions are competitive, but who is actually on the other side of the trade depends on which version of the site opened the account.

Why Markets4you’s regulation score sits at 4.5

• The BVI FSC register confirms E-Global Trade & Finance Group, Inc. as regulated for Arranging Deals in Investments and Dealing as Principal, but the export publishes no licence numbers, so the firm’s own cited number, SIBA/L/12/1027, is not itself verified by the register. The snapshot is 35 days old.
• The FSC Mauritius Online Public Register confirms Trade4you International holds an SEC-2.1B Investment Dealer licence dated 06/09/2021, but again without a published licence number, so the firm’s quoted GB21026460 is not confirmed by the register.
• A third entity, E-Global Trade & Finance SVG LLC, is confirmed on the St Vincent and the Grenadines FSA register (registration 1440 LLC 2021, status Active, incorporated 2021-09-27), but the SVG FSA registers companies and does not license forex or CFD brokers, so this confirms the company exists, not that it holds any trading licence.
• That SVG entity is also listed as a member of The Financial Commission, per that body’s own member check table, with compensation fund cover of EUR 20,000. The Financial Commission is a private dispute-resolution body brokers pay to join, not a regulator, and it publishes no membership numbers.
• Which entity a client actually contracts with changes by page language: English-language pages for GB, AE and AU name the BVI-licensed E-Global Trade & Finance Group, Inc. in the footer, while Indonesian-language pages name the SVG LLC and describe it only via its Financial Commission membership, with no financial regulator or licence stated for it on those pages.
• The BVI company registry entry for E-Global Trade & Finance Group, Inc. (1384287) and the Mauritius company registry entry for Trade4you International (GBC 182286) are both unchecked, those registries require a browser lookup nobody has performed yet, which is a gap in our checking rather than a finding about the firm.
• We searched 1441 warning-list entries mirrored from CYSEC, the FCA and FSC Mauritius, and Markets4you matches none of them. That result covers only the lists we mirror, not every regulator worldwide.

What Markets4you charges

• The firm’s own fee page states a 0% deposit/withdrawal transfer fee on standard transfers, with a separate cryptocurrency withdrawal fee of 0.00% to 0.50%.
• The Classic Pro and Cent Pro accounts carry commission (7$ per lot and 7¢ per cent lot respectively) with floating spreads from 0.1 pip, per the account comparison page; Classic Standard and Cent Standard carry no commission but wider floating spreads from 0.9 pip.
• The swap-free account page describes an Order Maintenance Fee applying only to orders open more than three calendar days, calculated as the fee for 1 Standard Lot multiplied by the number of opened net lots, but the per-lot rate itself is not published on that page, so a swap-free client cannot see the actual cost before it is charged.
• The deposits and withdrawals FAQ states the firm can impose extra fees at its own discretion: “If the Company identifies that client trading activity, considering the amount deposited, does not meet anticipated standards, or if a client is found to be exploiting the Deposit/Withdrawal system, then said client may be subject to relevant fees for deposit and withdrawal transactions.” That is undefined, unilateral discretion over what counts as exploiting the system.
• The same FAQ states that any conversion to or from US dollars or euros is “executed according to the internal Markets4you currency rates,” meaning a client funding or withdrawing in another currency has no external market rate to check the conversion against.

Platform and support

• MT4 and MT5 are offered alongside a Markets4you-branded mobile app and a WebTrader described in the firm’s FAQ as needing no downloads, plus TradingView chart tools referenced on the platforms page, a wide spread across the platform score of 8.3.
• Support runs a 24/7 live chat and phone line per the contact page, with the global phone number marked as a toll call rather than toll-free, alongside geo-specific toll-free numbers for markets including India, Malaysia, Laos, Indonesia, Vietnam and Bangladesh.
• A Complaints page and downloadable Complaints Policy PDF are linked from the firm’s legal documents footer.

Terms worth reading before funding an account

• The risk disclosure states: “The Company is not responsible for client’s losses sustained as a result of an incorrect trading strategy choice or his/her disregard of the rules of capital management,” and separately disclaims responsibility for losses tied to not following the MetaTrader user guide.
• The same risk disclosure holds a client bound to trades executed with their password “even if the password was used by a third party,” meaning stolen-credential trades remain the client’s obligation.
• Swap-free status can be revoked by the firm “at any time without prior notice” if account activity does not meet its terms, and an existing account cannot be converted to or from swap-free status, a new account is required instead.
• The risk disclosure page covers only Marginal Trade Risk, Technical Risks and Force Majeure; negative balance protection, margin call level, stop-out level and segregated client funds are not addressed anywhere on that page.

A contradiction worth flagging

The AU-localized pages (au-root, au-accounts, au-fees, au-contact) are built to market to Australian traders and describe account conditions for them, yet the footer disclaimer on those same pages states the service is “not available for residents in: US, Japan, Canada, Russia, Iran, North Korea, Myanmar, Australia and European Economic Area.” A dedicated country landing page marketing directly to the audience its own disclaimer excludes is the kind of detail worth noticing before funding an account through it.

Licenses & Regulation

E-Global Trade & Finance Group, Inc., the British Virgin Islands entity that carries the Markets4you brand on its English-language country versions of the site (gb, ae, au), states on those pages that it is authorised and regulated by the BVI FSC under the Securities and Investment Business Act, 2010, quoting licence number SIBA/L/12/1027 (rendered as “SIBA/ L/12/1027” on one page). The BVI FSC register confirms the company itself is regulated there for Arranging Deals in Investments and Dealing as Principal. It does not, however, publish licence numbers, so the register confirms the company and its permission but not the specific number the firm quotes. That snapshot is 35 days old at the time of writing and should be refreshed before anyone relies on it.

Markets4you also names a company registration number for the BVI entity, 1384287. Nobody has looked this up yet: the BVI company registry (VIRRGIN) only answers a person working through a browser, so this number is an unchecked gap in our own work, not a finding about the firm.

The Mauritius entity behind the “Trade4you International” brand

Some of the same pages also invoke a second licence, held by “Trade4you International” under the Financial Service Commission of Mauritius, quoting number GB21026460. The FSC Mauritius Online Public Register confirms Trade4you International holds an SEC-2.1B Investment Dealer (Full Service Dealer excluding Underwriting) licence, dated 06/09/2021. As with the BVI entry, the register publishes the licence type and date but not the licence number itself, so the company and its permission are confirmed while the number GB21026460 remains the firm’s own claim. A Mauritius company number, GBC 182286, is also quoted for this entity; the Mauritius Corporate and Business Registration Department’s online search likewise only answers a human user, so that number has not been checked either.

A third entity on the Indonesian-language pages, with no financial licence shown

The Indonesian-language country versions of the site name a different operating entity altogether: E-Global Trade & Finance SVG LLC, registered in St. Vincent and the Grenadines under number 1440 LLC 2021. The SVG FSA entity name search confirms this company: registration number 1440, status Active, incorporated 2021-09-27, registered agent EURO-CARIBBEAN TRUSTEES LTD. But the SVG FSA registers companies, it does not license forex or CFD brokers, so this confirms the company exists, not that it holds any financial-services permission. The only oversight claimed for this entity is membership of The Financial Commission, where the member check table lists “Markets4you (E-Global Trade & Finance SVG LTD)” with compensation fund cover of EUR 20,000. The Financial Commission is a private dispute-resolution body that brokers pay to join, not a regulator, and it publishes no membership numbers to check against what the firm quotes.

This split matters because it is not disclosed to the visitor as a choice. A client using the Indonesian version of the site is contracting with a St. Vincent entity backed only by private-body membership, while a client on the English-language pages is shown the BVI FSC-licensed entity. The two carry different regulatory standing, and the brand name gives no signal of which one applies. On top of that, the excluded-country wording changes between the two: the English pages exclude Russia, Iran, North Korea and Myanmar residents alongside the US, Japan, Canada, Australia and the EEA, while the Indonesian pages drop the first four countries from that list entirely.

Separately, the Australia-localised pages market account conditions specifically to Australian traders while the same pages’ own footer disclaimer states the service is not available to Australian residents. We note that contradiction on its own pages without drawing further conclusions from it.

Warning-list search

We searched 1,441 warning-list entries mirrored from CySEC, the FCA and FSC Mauritius, and Markets4you appears on none of them. We ran a positive control against seven registers first, searching for a firm known to be listed, so an empty result here means absence rather than a broken search. That result covers only the three regulators we mirror, not a global sweep.

The firm’s footer also states that its annual audit is carried out by “one of the Big Four accounting firms” and that insurance is “provided by Lloyd,” without naming the specific audit firm, the Lloyd’s syndicate, a policy number or a coverage limit. We hold no register or document that lets us check either claim.

How to Trade

The broker’s own account pages set out four ways to trade: Classic Standard, Classic Pro, Cent Standard and Cent Pro. On Classic Standard, the firm’s accounts page gives a floating spread from 0.9 pip with no commission, a standard lot of 100,000, minimum trade of 0.01 lot and a maximum of 500 lots, leverage from 1:10 to 1:4000, margin call at 100% and stop out at 20%. Classic Pro carries the same lot and leverage terms but a floating spread from 0.1 pip plus a commission of $7 per lot. The two Cent accounts run on a 1,000 unit lot instead, with Cent Standard priced the same way as Classic Standard (spread from 0.9 pip, no commission) and Cent Pro priced like Classic Pro (spread from 0.1 pip, commission of 7 cents per cent lot), but with a lower margin call of 50% and stop out of 10%. All four accounts allow hedging and carry a Share4you option, according to the same accounts page.

What Markets4you lets a client trade

The UAE homepage lists Forex, Commodities, Stocks and Indices as tradable markets, plus a dedicated Crypto Trading navigation item. The UK platforms page describes MetaTrader 5 as covering forex currency pairs, stocks, indices, metals and energies, and puts the MT5 instrument count at over 120, against MT4’s stated count of over 150 on the UAE platforms page. Trading runs on MetaTrader 4 or MetaTrader 5, both offered as desktop, mobile and (for MT5) macOS apps, and the firm also offers its own branded mobile app for charting, the economic calendar, two factor authentication and deposit or withdrawal management, separate from the MT4/MT5 mobile terminals. The UK platforms page also states a WebTrader is available “without the need for any downloads” and credits “Powerful chart tools by TradingView” as part of the platform’s benefits.

The swap free option and its real cost

Markets4you offers a swap free, or Islamic, account option, but the UK accounts page restricts eligibility to clients from Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, India and Nigeria, and to Cent and Standard MetaTrader 4 based accounts plus Pro Affiliate accounts. It is not simply fee free. Under the same page’s Key Conditions, a position held open for more than three calendar days is charged an Order Maintenance Fee, calculated as the fee for one standard lot multiplied by the number of opened net lots, and this applies to net order volume only, so hedged positions in the same instrument are not charged. The per lot rate itself is not published on the page we read. Markets4you also reserves the right to deny, revoke or change a client’s swap free status at any time without prior notice if account activity does not meet its terms, and an existing account cannot be converted to or from swap free status; a client who wants the other arrangement has to open a new account.

Where liability sits once a trade is open

The risk disclosure we read states that “the Company is not responsible for client’s losses sustained as a result of an incorrect trading strategy choice or his/her disregard of the rules of capital management,” and separately that it is not responsible for losses tied to non observance of the MetaTrader user guide. The same document states that a client remains bound by trades executed with their password “even if the password was used by a third party,” so credentials compromised by someone else do not shift responsibility for the resulting trades back to the firm. A further clause disclaims responsibility for losses from a broad list of force majeure events, naming acts of war, terrorist attacks, natural disasters, trading stops on financial markets, currency interventions, government decisions, and rapid liquidity drops. Notably, that risk disclosure page covers only Marginal Trade Risk, Technical Risks and Force Majeure; reading it, we found no mention of margin call level, stop out level or segregated client funds, even though the margin call and stop out percentages are published separately on the accounts page, and negative balance protection appears only as a one-line feature on the firm’s legal page.

Deposits, withdrawals and currency conversion

The fee page we read states a 0% fee on standard deposit and withdrawal transfers, with cryptocurrency withdrawals charged separately at 0.00% to 0.50%. The same page sets out a rule that funds must move through an account in the client’s own name: “we do not accept any third party deposits. The account used for depositing or withdrawing funds must be registered in your own name.” It also reserves the right to impose extra fees at the firm’s own discretion: “if the Company identifies that client trading activity, considering the amount deposited, does not meet anticipated standards, or if a client is found to be exploiting the Deposit/Withdrawal system, then said client may be subject to relevant fees for deposit and withdrawal transactions.” For deposits or withdrawals that involve converting to or from US dollars or euros, the same page states these are “executed according to the internal Markets4you currency rates,” meaning the conversion rate applied is the firm’s own rather than one the client can check against an outside market quote.

Account Types

Markets4you’s own accounts page lists four live account types: Classic Standard, Classic Pro, Cent Standard and Cent Pro. Each keeps the same leverage range and lot cap; what changes across them is the spread, the commission, and how much of a loss it takes to close a client out.

The four accounts Markets4you sells

The firm’s own accounts page gives the leverage band for all four as 1:10 to 1:4000, the minimum trade size as 0.01 lots, and the maximum as 500 lots on the Classic pair or 1,000 on the Cent pair. Cent Pro also carries its own limit-and-stop rule: orders can’t be placed closer than two pips from the market. All four permit hedging and list “Share4you” access, the broker’s copy-trading feature, as a standard inclusion rather than an add-on tier.

The margin call and stop-out figures are worth sitting with, because they set how much room a client has before a position is force-closed. On the Classic pair, Markets4you issues a margin call at 100% margin level and stops trading out at 20%. On the Cent pair, those triggers sit at 50% and 10% instead, meaning a Cent-account client can be run down to a much thinner equity cushion before the platform intervenes.

What the two tiers actually cost

The split within each pair is the standard no-commission-versus-commission trade-off: Classic Standard and Cent Standard charge no separate commission and build the cost into a wider quoted spread (from 0.9 pip), while Classic Pro and Cent Pro quote a tighter spread (from 0.1 pip) and add a per-lot commission instead, $7 per standard lot on Classic Pro and 7 cents per cent lot on Cent Pro. Markets4you’s fee page states the deposit and withdrawal transfer fee itself is 0%, with the asterisk that cryptocurrency withdrawals are charged separately at 0.00% to 0.50%.

Markets4you’s swap-free option

All four accounts are listed on the firm’s accounts page as carrying an “Islamic option,” but a separate accounts page narrows who can actually use it: swap-free eligibility is stated there as available only to clients from Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, India and Nigeria, and the same page separately states the service itself is limited to Cent and Standard MetaTrader 4-based accounts and to Pro-Affiliate accounts. Swap-free is not free of ongoing cost once a position runs long: under the “Key Conditions” on that page, positions held open more than three calendar days draw an Order Maintenance Fee, calculated as the fee for one standard lot multiplied by the number of opened net lots, charged only on the net order volume so a hedged position in the same instrument is not charged twice. The page does not publish the per-lot rate that feeds that formula.

Two conditions attach to swap-free status that bind the client rather than the firm. First, Markets4you “reserves the right to deny, revoke, or change a client’s Swap-free status at any time without prior notice if account activity does not meet the specified terms,” so the zero-swap setting can be pulled mid-relationship and ordinary swap charges resume. Second, an existing account cannot be converted to or from swap-free status; a client who wants to switch has to open an entirely new account rather than flip a setting on the one they already fund.

Negative Balance Protection

The firm’s own Risk Disclosure page, covering Marginal Trade Risk, Technical Risks and Force Majeure, does not cover margin call level, stop out level, or segregated client funds; negative balance protection is named only as a one-line feature on the firm’s legal page, with no terms attached. That is what the document does not say, not a claim that no such protection exists.

What the account tables do say

The account comparison table on the firm’s accounts page gives margin call and stop out levels that differ by account type. Classic Standard and Classic Pro list a margin call level of 100% and a stop out level of 20%. Cent Standard and Cent Pro list a margin call level of 50% and a stop out level of 10%. None of these figures appear on the Risk Disclosure page itself; they come from the separate accounts comparison table.

What the Risk Disclosure page does cover

Under Marginal Trade Risk, the document states that the company is not responsible for a client’s losses sustained as a result of an incorrect trading strategy choice or disregard of the rules of capital management. Under Technical Risks, it states that the company is not responsible for a client’s losses sustained due to non observance of instructions included in the MetaTrader client terminal user guide, and separately that a client remains subject to trading obligations executed using their password even if that password was used by a third party. Under Force Majeure, the document states the company is not responsible for a client’s losses sustained due to force majeure, and it lists acts of war, terrorist attacks, natural disasters, financial market trading stops, currency interventions, government decisions, instability on financial markets with rapid drops of liquidity, and other significant changes of counteragent working process.

Each of these clauses shifts a category of loss onto the client rather than the firm. None of them addresses what happens to an account balance that goes negative, or whether the firm caps client losses at deposited funds.

Markets4you’s swap free accounts and the maintenance fee that replaces swap

The account terms describe a related mechanism that affects how losses accrue over time on open positions, though it is a fee structure rather than a loss limit. On Cent Standard, Cent Pro, Classic Standard and Classic Pro accounts, a client can hold a swap free (Islamic) position, but the terms state a maintenance fee applies once an order has been open for more than three calendar days, charged only on the net order volume, with no fee on hedged positions in the same instrument. The formula given is Order Maintenance Fee equals the Fee for 1 Standard Lot multiplied by the Number of Opened Net Lots; the per lot rate itself is not published on the page we read. The terms also state that Markets4you reserves the right to deny, revoke or change a client’s swap free status at any time without prior notice if account activity does not meet the specified terms, and that an existing account cannot be converted to or from swap free status, meaning a client who loses that status must open a new account to get it back.

What this leaves unanswered

Margin call and stop out levels tell a reader when the firm will begin closing positions on Classic and Cent accounts, at the percentages given above. The legal page names negative balance protection as a feature but gives no terms, so the pages read do not say whether stop out at those levels is reliably fast enough, in fast moving markets, to prevent an account balance from going negative, or exactly how a negative balance that does occur would be handled. Given the force majeure clause’s broad list of disclaimed events, including instability on financial markets with rapid drops of liquidity, a client relying on stop out alone to cap losses at their deposit has nothing in the firm’s own Risk Disclosure page confirming that outcome.

Trading Instruments

Markets4you’s own pages list four tradable groups across the geo variants we fetched: forex, commodities, stocks and indices on the AE homepage, plus a dedicated “Crypto Trading” navigation item on the same page. The MT5 platform page for the GB variant repeats forex currency pairs, stocks, indices, metals and energies as tradable through that terminal, and the AE platforms page states MT4 carries “150+ instruments”. None of the pages we fetched break those counts down into an actual instrument list, so what “150+” or “120+” cover in practice, which specific pairs, which named stocks, which metals beyond the ones named, is not something we can check from what we read.

Account tiers and what each one changes about trading conditions

Markets4you’s AU-localized accounts page sets out four tiers, and the differences between them affect the instruments traded as much as the fees. Classic Standard and Classic Pro both trade in standard lots of 100,000 units, minimum trade 0.01, maximum lot 500, with leverage stated as running from 1:10 to 1:4000. Classic Standard carries a floating spread from 0.9 pip with no commission; Classic Pro carries a floating spread from 0.1 pip plus a $7 commission per lot. Cent Pro and Cent Standard instead run in cent lots of 1,000 units, minimum trade 0.01, maximum lot 1000, with the same 1:10 to 1:4000 leverage range; Cent Pro adds a 7 cent per cent lot commission on a from 0.1 pip spread, Cent Standard has no commission on a from 0.9 pip spread. Margin call and stop out levels differ by lot type too: 100% and 20% on the Classic tiers, 50% and 10% on the Cent tiers. All four tiers are described as offering hedging and an Islamic (swap free) option, and all four carry Share4you access, per the same AU accounts page.

Swap free trading and the fee Markets4you charges instead of swap

The GB accounts page states that the swap free option is available only on Cent and Standard MetaTrader 4 based accounts and on Pro-Affiliate accounts, and that eligibility for it is restricted to clients from Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, India and Nigeria. The same page describes what replaces the swap: an “Order Maintenance Fee” that applies only to orders open for more than three calendar days, calculated as the fee for one standard lot multiplied by the number of opened net lots, charged on net volume only so hedged positions in the same instrument are not charged. The per lot rate itself is not published on the page we read. The same page states Markets4you can revoke or change a client’s swap free status at any time without prior notice if account activity does not meet its terms, and that an existing account cannot be converted to or from swap free status, a client who wants the other status has to open a new account.

Where the instrument list and the risk disclosure fall short of each other

The dedicated Risk Disclosure page we read covers three headings only: Marginal Trade Risk, Technical Risks and Force Majeure. It does not address negative balance protection, margin call level, stop out level or segregated client funds anywhere on that page, matters a trader in leveraged CFD instruments would normally expect a risk disclosure to cover. Under Technical Risks, the same page states that trades executed using a client’s password bind the client “even if the password was used by a third party,” and under Force Majeure it lists the broker as not responsible for client losses from a broad set of events including “acts of war, terrorist attacks, natural disasters, financial market trading stops, currency interventions, government decisions, instability on financial markets with rapid drops of liquidity, and other significant changes of counteragents working process.”

Platforms carrying the instruments Markets4you lists

The instruments above are traded through MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5, both offered with iOS, Android, macOS and Windows apps per the AU fees page, and the AE platforms page adds that MT4 carries 30 plus built in indicators, expert advisors, a strategy tester and an indicators marketplace, while the GB platforms page describes MT5 with market depth, 50 plus technical analysis tools, nine timeframes and three chart types. Markets4you also runs its own branded mobile app, described on the ID and GB pages as separate from the MT4/MT5 mobile terminals, with charting, an economic calendar, two factor authentication and deposit/withdrawal management, plus a WebTrader the GB platforms page describes as needing “no downloads.” The same GB page credits “Powerful chart tools by TradingView” as part of the platform’s charting.

Education & Analysis

The pages we fetched name three platform layers for Markets4you: MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5 and the broker’s own branded mobile app, plus a browser terminal and a third party charting credit. There is no dedicated market analysis, research or signals product named anywhere in the pages we read.

MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5

The UAE platforms page fills in the MT4 detail: 150 plus instruments, one click trading, more than 30 built in indicators, automation scripts, expert advisors, a strategy tester, market alerts and an indicators marketplace, available as MT4 Mobile through an Android APK and MT4 Desktop for Windows.

The UK platforms page covers MT5 in similar depth: more than 120 instruments spanning forex pairs, stocks, indices, metals and energies, an advanced market depth view, more than 50 technical analysis tools, nine timeframes, three chart types and expert advisor support, with MT5 Mobile and MT5 Desktop apps for Windows and macOS. Where the two terminals diverge on paper is largely the instrument count and the depth of book feature, which the pages attribute to MT5 only.

Markets4you’s own mobile app and web terminal

Separate from the MT4 and MT5 mobile apps, the Indonesian markets page and the UK platforms page both describe a Markets4you branded mobile app, distinct from the MetaTrader terminals, offering a simpler trading interface alongside charting tools, an economic calendar, two factor authentication and deposit and withdrawal management, for iOS and Android as well as a direct Android APK.

The UK platforms page also lists a WebTrader, and its FAQ text describes it as reachable “without the need for any downloads,” usable from any device with an internet connection. No further detail on what that browser terminal actually contains, order types, chart count, indicator library, is given on the page we read.

The TradingView charting credit

The same UK platforms page states, as a platform benefit, “Powerful chart tools by TradingView.” The page gives no further specification of where that TradingView integration sits, whether it is the charting layer inside WebTrader, a separate standalone chart view, or something else. We read the phrase as published; we did not open a live account to see which of Markets4you’s platforms actually carries it.

What Markets4you’s risk disclosure and terms leave out

The dedicated risk disclosure page we read, covering Marginal Trade Risk, Technical Risks and Force Majeure, includes a clause specific to platform use: it states the company is not responsible for a client’s losses “due to non-observance of instructions included in the MetaTrader client terminal user guide,” which puts the burden of understanding MT4 and MT5’s own mechanics on the client rather than the broker. The same page, under Technical Risks, states that trades executed with a client’s password bind the client “even if the password was used by a third party,” a term worth reading in full before relying on the platform’s login security.

None of the platform pages we fetched publish a demo account policy, a market analysis or signals section, or an economic calendar beyond the one folded into the branded mobile app’s feature list. Where a reader wants confirmation of research tools, calendars or analyst content beyond what is described above, that is a gap in the pages we fetched rather than a confirmed absence on the firm’s part.

Special Offers

We found nothing on Markets4you’s pages that describes a promotion, bonus, deposit match, or cashback offer. That is a statement about what we fetched, not a finding about the firm: the pages in our evidence set are account pages, fee pages, platform pages, risk disclosure, terms, and contact pages, and none of them is a promotions page.

What the account pages describe instead of promotions

The four account types on Markets4you’s Australia pages (Classic Standard, Classic Pro, Cent Pro, Cent Standard) are priced through spread and commission structure, not through anything framed as a limited time or promotional offer. Classic Standard carries a floating spread from 0.9 pip with no commission; Classic Pro carries a floating spread from 0.1 pip with a 7 dollar per lot commission; Cent Pro carries a floating spread from 0.1 pip with a 7 cent per cent lot commission; Cent Standard carries a floating spread from 0.9 pip with no commission. All four show a minimum deposit of 0 dollars on that page. None of the four is described as a welcome tier, a trial tier, or tied to a deposit bonus.

The Share4you reference

Each of the four accounts lists “Share4you access” among its features. The evidence we hold does not include a Share4you terms or pricing page, so we cannot say here what Share4you costs, what it requires, or whether it carries any promotional element. That is a gap in what we fetched, not a claim that Share4you is free or that it is a promotion.

The swap free option is a fee waiver with conditions, not a promotion

Markets4you’s UK style account page describes a Swap free (Islamic) option available on Cent Pro, Cent Standard, Classic Standard and Classic Pro, restricted to clients from Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, India and Nigeria, and available only on Cent and Standard MetaTrader 4 based accounts and Pro Affiliate accounts. The page states the firm “reserves the right to deny, revoke, or change a client’s Swap free status at any time without prior notice if account activity does not meet the specified terms,” and that existing accounts cannot be converted to or from Swap free status, meaning a client who wants the terms changed has to open a new account. The same page sets out an Order Maintenance Fee that applies once a position has been open for more than three calendar days, calculated as the fee for one standard lot multiplied by the number of opened net lots, and charged only on net order volume, not on hedged positions in the same instrument. The per lot rate for that fee is not published on the page we read. None of this is presented as a promotional offer; it is a fee structure with an opt out that the firm can revoke unilaterally.

What we checked to reach this

Nothing in the register searches we ran (BVI FSC, FSC Mauritius, the St. Vincent and the Grenadines company registry, The Financial Commission) touches promotions, since registers record licensing and company status, not marketing terms. Our warning list search, covering 1441 entries mirrored from CYSEC, the FCA and FSC Mauritius, returned no match for this firm; that result speaks to sanctions and warning notices, not to whether a bonus programme exists. The terms and conditions and risk disclosure pages we read cover deposits and withdrawals, marginal trade risk, technical risk, and force majeure, and make no mention of bonus terms, minimum volume requirements to unlock a bonus, or withdrawal restrictions tied to promotional credit.

Given the pages available to us, the only offer like feature on record is the swap free fee waiver described above, and it is a conditional exemption from a fee, not a deposit bonus, a cashback scheme, or a time limited promotion.

Opening an Account

What the evidence does establish is which of two legal entities actually takes on a new client, what nationalities and account combinations are turned away, and the funding rule a client is bound by from the first deposit.

Which entity a Markets4you client actually signs with

The English-language country versions of the site (the UK, UAE and Australia versions) name the operating entity as E-Global Trade & Finance Group, Inc. of the British Virgin Islands, citing licence “SIBA/L/12/1027.” We searched the BVI FSC register directly and it confirms E-Global Trade & Finance Group, Inc. is regulated there for Arranging Deals in Investments and Dealing as Principal, though the register’s export does not publish licence numbers, so the number itself remains the firm’s own claim. The same pages also name an affiliate, Trade4you International, licensed by the Financial Service Commission of Mauritius; we checked the FSC Mauritius Online Public Register and it confirms Trade4you International holds an SEC-2.1B Investment Dealer licence dated 06/09/2021, again without a published licence number to match against “GB21026460.”

The Indonesian-language pages tell a different story. Their footer names the operating entity as E-Global Trade & Finance SVG LLC, registration number 1440 LLC 2021, incorporated in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. We searched the SVG FSA entity registry and it confirms the company: E-Global Trade & Finance SVG LLC, status Active, incorporated 2021-09-27, registered agent Euro-Caribbean Trustees Ltd. The SVG FSA registers companies and does not license forex or CFD brokers, so that entry confirms the company exists, not that it holds a trading licence. The Indonesian pages describe this entity only as a member of The Financial Commission, which our register check separately confirms as a membership listing with a EUR 20,000 compensation fund, and which is a private dispute-resolution body brokers pay to join, not a regulator. A client who signs up through the Indonesian-language site is therefore contracting with an entity we hold no financial-services licence for, while a client on the English-language site is contracting with the BVI FSC-licensed entity.

Who Markets4you turns away

The UAE-language pages state the service is “not available for residents in: US, Japan, Canada, Russia, Iran, North Korea, Myanmar, Australia and European Economic Area.” The same English-language exclusion list, naming Australia, appears on the Australia-localized pages (au-root, au-accounts, au-fees, au-contact) that are themselves built to market to and describe account conditions for Australian traders, the page telling an Australian visitor how to open an account is the same page whose own disclaimer says the service is not available to Australian residents.

Islamic (swap-free) accounts carry a further nationality test: the UK-language accounts page restricts swap-free eligibility to clients from Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, India and Nigeria only, and even within that group swap-free is only available on Cent and Standard MetaTrader 4-based accounts and on Pro-Affiliate accounts, not on every account type Markets4you offers.

The account types on offer once signed up

Australia’s account-types page lists four accounts, each with a stated minimum deposit of $0: Classic Standard (floating spread from 0.9 pip, no commission, leverage from 1:10 to 1:4000, margin call 100%, stop out 20%), Classic Pro (spread from 0.1 pip, commission $7 per lot, same leverage range, same margin call and stop-out levels), Cent Standard (spread from 0.9 pip, no commission, margin call 50%, stop out 10%) and Cent Pro (spread from 0.1 pip, commission 7 cents per cent lot, margin call 50%, stop out 10%). All four carry MT4 and MT5 access, hedging, an Islamic option where the nationality and account rules above are met, and access to the firm’s Share4you copy-trading feature.

Funding is bound by a rule stated on the fees FAQ: “Please note that we do not accept any third-party deposits. The account used for depositing or withdrawing funds must be registered in your own name.” The same page reserves the right to impose extra deposit and withdrawal fees at the firm’s own discretion where it judges that “client trading activity, considering the amount deposited, does not meet anticipated standards” or that a client is “exploiting the Deposit/Withdrawal system”, a standard the page does not itself define.

Swap-free status is not fixed once granted

The UK-language accounts page states Markets4you “reserves the right to deny, revoke, or change a client’s Swap-free status at any time without prior notice if account activity does not meet the specified terms,” and that existing accounts cannot be converted to or from swap-free status, a client who wants to switch has to open a new account rather than change the existing one. Once an order under swap-free terms has been open more than three calendar days, the same page describes an Order Maintenance Fee charged on the net open lot volume, calculated as the fee for one standard lot multiplied by the number of net lots open; the per-lot rate itself is not published on that page.

Deposits & Withdrawals

The deposits and withdrawals picture depends entirely on which language version of the site a client lands on, because the legal entity behind that page changes with it. The Arab Emirates, Australia and UK pages name the operating entity as E-Global Trade & Finance Group, Inc. of the British Virgin Islands, which the BVI FSC register confirms is regulated for Arranging Deals in Investments and Dealing as Principal, though the register’s own export does not publish licence numbers, so “SIBA/L/12/1027” remains the firm’s own claim rather than something we could read off the register. The Indonesian-language pages name a different company, E-Global Trade & Finance SVG LLC, registered in St. Vincent and the Grenadines under number 1440 LLC 2021, an entry the SVG FSA company registry confirms exists and is Active, incorporated 2021-09-27, with EURO-CARIBBEAN TRUSTEES LTD as registered agent. That confirms the company was incorporated; it does not confirm a financial licence, because the SVG FSA registers companies and does not license forex or CFD brokers. The Indonesian pages describe this SVG entity only as a member of The Financial Commission, and our register check found the same body lists Markets4you (E-Global Trade & Finance SVG LTD) as a member with compensation fund cover of EUR 20,000. The Financial Commission is a private dispute-resolution body brokers pay to join, not a regulator, and it publishes no membership numbers to check. A client who funds an account through the Indonesian entry point is putting money with the SVG company under that private-membership cover, not the BVI-licensed one the English-language marketing leans on elsewhere.

What Markets4you charges to move money

The Australia-geo fee page states the deposit and withdrawal transfer fee itself is 0%, with an asterisk pointing to a separate cryptocurrency withdrawal fee of 0.00% to 0.50%. The same page sets Electronic Payment Systems deposits at a minimum of 10 USD and a maximum of 10,000 USD, processed instantly, and Local Payment Solutions at a minimum of 25 USD and a maximum of 5,000 to 10,000 USD, processed instantly to one working day. The Indonesia fee page gives separate local-currency figures for IDR: a minimum deposit of 15,000 to 100,000 IDR and a maximum up to 500,000,000 IDR, processed instantly, and lists cryptocurrency deposits (USDT, USDC, BTC, ETH, XRP, LTC, TRX) at a minimum of 10 to 50 USD and a maximum of 200,000 USD, also instant, with that same 0.00% to 0.50% withdrawal fee applying to crypto.

The fee page’s own FAQ carries a clause worth quoting exactly, because it hands the firm room the 0% headline doesn’t mention: “If the Company identifies that client trading activity, considering the amount deposited, does not meet anticipated standards, or if a client is found to be exploiting the Deposit/Withdrawal system, then said client may be subject to relevant fees for deposit and withdrawal transactions.” Nothing on the fee page defines what “anticipated standards” means or what those fees would be; the decision sits with the firm. The same page also states that “Whenever a transaction involves currency exchange to/from US dollars or euros, please be aware that these are executed according to the internal Markets4you currency rates”, a non-USD/EUR deposit or withdrawal is converted at a rate Markets4you sets itself, with no market benchmark published alongside it for a client to check against.

Who can move funds, and whose name has to be on the account

The same FAQ states plainly: “Please note that we do not accept any third-party deposits. The account used for depositing or withdrawing funds must be registered in your own name.” That closes off a common workaround (funding from a spouse’s or business account) and means a mismatch between the payment account name and the trading account name can block or delay a transaction.

Swap-free accounts: the maintenance fee that replaces the swap

The UK-geo accounts page describes the swap-free (Islamic) option as available only on Cent and Standard MetaTrader 4 based accounts and Pro-Affiliate accounts, and only for clients from Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, India and Nigeria. It is not simply fee-free: once a position stays open for more than three calendar days, an Order Maintenance Fee applies, calculated as the Fee for 1 Standard Lot multiplied by the number of opened net lots, charged only on the net volume and not on hedged positions in the same instrument. The per-lot rate itself is not published on the page we read. The same page states Markets4you “reserves the right to deny, revoke, or change a client’s Swap-free status at any time without prior notice if account activity does not meet the specified terms,” and that an existing account cannot be converted to or from swap-free status, a client who wants to switch has to open a new account rather than adjust the one they have.

Restricted markets

The English-language pages (UK, Australia, Arab Emirates entity pages) list the service as unavailable to residents of the US, Japan, Canada, Russia, Iran, North Korea, Myanmar, Australia and the European Economic Area. Notably, that list includes Australia on the same site that runs a dedicated Australia-localized page describing account conditions for Australian traders. The Indonesian-language version of the same disclaimer, tied to the SVG entity, is shorter: it drops Russia, Iran, North Korea and Myanmar and excludes only the US, Japan, Canada, Australia and the EEA.

Where the risk disclosure is silent

Our read of the dedicated Risk Disclosure page found it covers Marginal Trade Risk, Technical Risks and Force Majeure only. It does not address negative balance protection, margin call level, stop-out level or segregated client funds anywhere on that page, a client looking there for how their deposited funds are held, or what happens if a position goes deeply negative, will not find it answered in that document. The same page disclaims the firm’s responsibility for losses tied to a client’s own strategy choices, for losses from not following the MetaTrader user guide, and for trades executed with a client’s password “even if the password was used by a third party”, meaning stolen-credential trades remain binding on the client’s account.

Customer Support

Markets4you publishes a long list of contact channels rather than a single support desk. The firm’s contact page gives a global phone line (+44 330 027 1824, described as a toll call), a global email (support@markets4you.com) and live chat, with customer care stated to run 24/7. On top of that global line, the same contact page lists separate phone numbers and dedicated email addresses for India, Malaysia, Thailand, Laos, Indonesia, Vietnam, Bangladesh and Africa, plus additional emails for China, Taiwan and Hong Kong. There are also separate addresses for the partnership department and the marketing department, both stated to respond within 24 hours, and a feedback@markets4you.com address.

What Markets4you’s own pages say about hours

The hours claim is not consistent across the pages we fetched. The Australia contact page and the platforms page both describe support as available 24/7, and one platforms page repeats the phone number +44 330 027 1824 under the label “Support 24/7.” The Indonesian language risk page, however, lists the same style of toll free phone number with hours given as Senin, Jumat, 09:00 to 18:00, which is Monday to Friday, 09:00 to 18:00. We did not find anything on the pages we read that reconciles a 24/7 claim on one country version of the site with office hours on another.

Live chat and self-service

A live chat widget appears on the platforms page with the greeting “We’re Online! How may I help you today?” The contact page directs users to “Start a chat” as one of its listed channels. Beyond chat and the phone and email list, the evidence we hold does not describe a ticketing system, help center or FAQ search separate from the individual FAQ text embedded in pages like the deposits and withdrawals section.

Complaints handling

A “Complaints” page and a downloadable Complaints Policy PDF are linked from the footer and legal documents section of the site. We did not read the content of that policy, so we cannot report what timeframe or escalation steps it sets out, only that Markets4you publishes one.

Terms that shape what a complaint can actually recover

Several clauses in the firm’s own terms and risk disclosure bear directly on what a client can raise with support and what they can expect back. The deposits and withdrawals page states plainly: “Please note that we do not accept any third-party deposits. The account used for depositing or withdrawing funds must be registered in your own name.” A client disputing a blocked withdrawal on those grounds is disputing a rule the firm has stated in writing, not a support error.

The same page gives the firm open-ended discretion over fees tied to complaints about account activity: “If the Company identifies that client trading activity, considering the amount deposited, does not meet anticipated standards, or if a client is found to be exploiting the Deposit/Withdrawal system, then said client may be subject to relevant fees for deposit and withdrawal transactions.” No definition of “anticipated standards” or “exploiting” appears on that page, which means a client contesting an added fee through support is contesting a judgment call the firm reserves entirely to itself. The same page also states that currency conversion on USD or EUR transactions is “executed according to the internal Markets4you currency rates,” so a support query about a conversion amount is checked against a rate the firm sets rather than an external benchmark.

The risk disclosure page, under Marginal Trade Risk, states that “the Company is not responsible for client’s losses sustained as a result of an incorrect trading strategy choice or his/her disregard of the rules of capital management,” and under Technical Risks that “the Company is not responsible for Client’s losses sustained due to non-observance of instructions included in the MetaTrader client terminal user guide.” The same section states that the client remains bound by trades executed with their password “even if the password was used by a third party,” meaning a support complaint about unauthorized trading is met with a clause that assigns that risk to the client rather than the firm. A separate Force Majeure clause disclaims liability for losses tied to a broad list of events, including “acts of war, terrorist attacks, natural disasters, financial market trading stops, currency interventions, government decisions” and “instability on financial markets with rapid drops of liquidity,” so a complaint tied to any of those events falls outside what the firm accepts responsibility for by its own wording.

On the swap free account line, the terms state that Markets4you “reserves the right to deny, revoke, or change a client’s Swap free status at any time without prior notice if account activity does not meet the specified terms,” and that an existing account cannot be converted to or from Swap free status, meaning a client who loses that status has to open a new account rather than have it restored on the existing one through support.

Which entity a complaint actually lands with

Which legal entity handles a complaint depends on which language version of the site the client used to sign up. English language pages for the UK, UAE and Australia name E-Global Trade & Finance Group, Inc., which the BVI FSC’s own register confirms is authorised for Arranging Deals in Investments and Dealing as Principal, a finding we made by searching the BVI FSC register directly. The Indonesian language pages instead name E-Global Trade & Finance SVG LLC, a St Vincent and the Grenadines company we confirmed in the SVG FSA entity search, registration number 1440, status Active. That entity is described on those pages only as a member of The Financial Commission, which we confirm is a member listing but which is a private dispute resolution body brokers pay to join, not a financial regulator. A client routed to the SVG entity is raising a complaint with a company whose regulatory backing, on the evidence we hold, does not extend beyond that membership. We also searched 1,441 warning list entries mirrored from CySEC, the FCA and FSC Mauritius, and Markets4you appears on none of them, though that check covers only the regulators we mirror.

Prohibited Countries

Markets4you publishes more than one version of its excluded-country list, and which one a visitor sees depends on which language and legal entity the page is built around. Two lists, two entities, two sets of readers.

The exclusion list on Markets4you’s English-language pages

The UAE-facing homepage and the GB terms page, both built around the BVI FSC-licensed entity E-Global Trade & Finance Group, Inc., state that “the service is not available for residents in: US, Japan, Canada, Russia, Iran, North Korea, Myanmar, Australia and European Economic Area.”

A shorter list on the Indonesian-language pages

The Indonesian-language root and terms pages, which name a different operating entity in the footer, E-Global Trade & Finance SVG LLC, registered in St. Vincent and the Grenadines as 1440 LLC 2021, give a narrower exclusion: AS (US), Jepang (Japan), Kanada (Canada), Australia, dan Wilayah Ekonomi Eropa (EEA). Russia, Iran, North Korea and Myanmar, all named on the English-language pages, are absent from this version. A reader who lands on the Indonesian pages sees a disclaimer that does not exclude those four countries; a reader on the English pages sees one that does. Both pages belong to the same brand.

Markets4you’s Australia pages market to the country its own disclaimer excludes

The site runs a dedicated set of Australia-localized pages, a homepage, an accounts page, a fees page, a contact page and a legal page, describing account conditions for Australian traders. The footer disclaimer on those same pages states the service is “not available for residents in: US, Japan, Canada, Russia, Iran, North Korea, Myanmar, Australia and European Economic Area.” Australia appears in both places: as a market the localized pages are built for, and as a country the eligibility notice on those pages excludes.

Swap-free accounts carry their own, narrower list

Separately from the general country exclusions, the GB accounts page limits eligibility for the Swap-free (Islamic) option to clients from Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, India, and Nigeria only, and further restricts it to Cent and Standard MetaTrader 4-based accounts, plus Pro-Affiliate accounts. A client outside those five countries, or holding an account type outside that list, is not eligible for Swap-free terms regardless of where they otherwise qualify to trade with Markets4you.

Deposits and withdrawals must match the account holder

The fees FAQ states: “Please note that we do not accept any third-party deposits. The account used for depositing or withdrawing funds must be registered in your own name.” This is not a residency restriction but a funding restriction that applies across all clients: money moving in or out has to come from and go to an account in the client’s own name, regardless of country.

What we did not check

We read the restriction wording as published on the country versions of the site listed above. We did not test how the site behaves for a visitor connecting from an excluded country, and the evidence here covers the English-language and Indonesian-language versions we fetched, not every localized version Markets4you runs.

Conclusion

Markets4you scores 6.8 overall, dragged down by a 4.5 on regulation against fee and platform scores above 8. That gap is the review in one sentence: the trading conditions are competitive, but who is actually holding the client’s money depends on which page they signed up through.

What backs the Markets4you name

The BVI FSC register confirms E-Global Trade & Finance Group, Inc. as regulated for Arranging Deals in Investments and Dealing as Principal, which is the entity named on the English-language country versions of the site (gb, ae, au) and quoted there as holding SIBA/L/12/1027. The BVI FSC’s own export does not publish licence numbers, so the register confirms the company and its permission, not the number “SIBA/L/12/1027” itself; that figure remains the firm’s own claim, and the snapshot behind it is 35 days old. Separately, the FSC Mauritius Online Public Register confirms Trade4you International holds an SEC-2.1B Investment Dealer licence from 06/09/2021, again without publishing the quoted number GB21026460. Both are real, checkable licences held by real entities in the group.

What sits behind the Indonesian-language pages is different. Their footer names E-Global Trade & Finance SVG LLC, an entity the St Vincent and the Grenadines FSA registry confirms as an active company (registration 1440, incorporated 2021-09-27), but the SVG FSA registers companies, it does not license forex or CFD brokers, so that confirmation covers the corporate shell, not a trading permission. The Financial Commission’s member list also shows this SVG entity as a member, with a stated compensation fund of EUR 20,000, but the Financial Commission is a private dispute-resolution body brokers pay to join, not a regulator, and it publishes no membership numbers to check. A client onboarded through the Indonesian site is dealing with a company we can confirm exists, backed by a private ADR scheme, and nothing we hold shows a financial-services licence attached to it.

The eligibility pages don’t match their own disclaimers

The site’s Australia-localized pages build out account tables, fee schedules and contact details for Australian traders, while the same pages’ own footer disclaimer states the service is “not available for residents in: US, Japan, Canada, Russia, Iran, North Korea, Myanmar, Australia and European Economic Area.” The Indonesian and Thai versions of that same disclaimer drop Russia, Iran, North Korea and Myanmar from the excluded list. We did not test what happens if someone from those countries tries to register; we can only report that the pages contradict each other on paper.

What the terms and risk pages commit a client to

Markets4you’s fee FAQ states that if the Company identifies that client trading activity… does not meet anticipated standards, or if a client is found to be exploiting the Deposit/Withdrawal system, it may impose extra fees at its own discretion, with no definition of “exploiting” given. The same page states that currency conversions to or from USD or EUR are “executed according to the internal Markets4you currency rates,” a rate the client has no external way to check. On swap-free accounts, the terms let the firm “deny, revoke, or change a client’s Swap-free status at any time without prior notice,” and separately impose an Order Maintenance Fee on any net position held open more than three calendar days, calculated as the fee for one standard lot multiplied by the number of open net lots, a mechanism that replaces the swap it was meant to avoid rather than removing a cost. The risk disclosure page, covering only Marginal Trade Risk, Technical Risks and Force Majeure, states the client remains bound by trades placed with their password “even if the password was used by a third party,” and disclaims responsibility for losses tied to force majeure events described in broad terms covering war, government decisions and liquidity drops. Margin call level, stop-out level and segregated client funds do not appear anywhere on that risk page, and negative balance protection appears only as a one-line feature on the firm’s legal page.

What actually works

We searched 1,441 warning-list entries mirrored from CYSEC, the FCA and FSC Mauritius, and Markets4you appears on none of them, a clean result, though it only covers the lists we mirror. The account structure itself is genuinely varied: Classic and Cent tiers pairing commission-free spreads from 0.9 pips against a 7 dollar-per-lot commission tier from 0.1 pips, leverage running from 1:10 to 1:4000, and both MT4 and MT5 alongside the firm’s own branded mobile app and a WebTrader. Deposit and withdrawal transfers carry no stated fee beyond cryptocurrency withdrawals at 0.00% to 0.50%, and support runs country-specific phone lines and email addresses across more than a dozen regions plus 24/7 live chat.

Markets4you runs confirmed BVI FSC and FSC Mauritius licences behind its main brand, real trading tools, and a clean warning-list check, but scores 6.8 overall because a second entity behind its Indonesian pages carries no confirmed financial licence and its own terms hand it wide discretion over fees and swap-free status.
