Expert Advice

Anton Kharitonov
Chief Analytics Officer
  • Based on my observations, understanding the restrictions imposed by different regulatory bodies is crucial for international traders. For instance, US-based traders face strict leverage limits imposed by the CFTC, which may not align with the strategies of traders in Europe or Asia, where higher leverage is permitted under regulators like CySEC or ASIC. Before selecting a broker, carefully consider how these regulatory differences could impact your trading style.
