Recommended
Online Forex Brokers
The forex brokers who make our
Recommended
Forex Brokers List are those brokers who missed
out on making our
Best Forex Brokers List
by not meeting just one of the criteria or those forex brokers who
received a rating of 6.0 or above in our independent trader ratings.
The only other requirements for making this list is that they must have
an independent trader rating of at least 4.25 and must have provided us
with most of the information presented in our broker snapshots below.
There are 29 online forex brokers on this list. Including those forex
brokers who are on our
Best Forex Brokers List
there are a total of 38 recommended forex brokers on this site. That is
approximately on 17% on the total number of approximately 220 online
forex brokers identified on this site, certainly a select group.
While the forex brokers on our
Recommended
Forex Brokers List
may have a flaw here or there, they are minor in comparison to the
majority of forex brokers out there on the Internet. No matter what
your trading style, you should be able to find a broker on this list
that will meet your needs.
(The number
in parenthesis behind the broker name is their independent trader
rating)
