FP Trading

FP Trading 소개

FP Trading is a multi‑asset forex/CFD brand that operates a group structure spanning several jurisdictions. The broker highlights platform breadth (MT4, MT5, cTrader), copy trading, and an instrument list that covers forex, indices, commodities, metals, shares, and digital currencies. Accounts follow a familiar Standard (spread‑only) versus Raw (tight spreads plus commission) model, with a stated maximum leverage of up to 1:500 depending on instrument and entity.

From a market access standpoint, FP Trading says clients can trade 70+ FX pairs and over 1,000 symbols from a single account. That scope matters to discretionary and systematic traders who prefer to diversify signals and hedges across asset classes without switching brokers or platforms.

In terms of oversight, the website lists a Mauritius entity (Investment Dealer license), a South African entity (FSCA authorisation), and registrations in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and Saint Lucia. The firm is also an Approved Member of The Financial Commission (an external dispute resolution body) and advertises a $1,000,000 insurance program underwritten via the Lloyd’s market. These frameworks are not identical to Tier‑1 protections (e.g., FCA/ASIC), but they add defined complaint‑handling and operational‑risk layers that traders should understand before funding.

Overall, FP Trading may suit traders who prioritise platform choice (MT4/MT5/cTrader), want the option of copy trading or MAM/PAMM, and are comfortable with a non‑EU/non‑UK regulatory setup with leverage up to 1:500. Active day traders and scalpers may find the Raw account’s $3 per side per lot commission compelling, while newer traders may prefer the Standard account’s spread‑only pricing.

Safety and Regulations

Trading Regulators

According to the broker’s legal and regulation pages, FP Trading operates multiple entities: (1) FP Trading (MU) Limited – licensed by the Financial Services Commission of Mauritius (Investment Dealer, license GB26205878; reg. 231866 GBC); (2) FPK Trading (Pty) Limited – authorised by the Financial Sector Conduct Authority (FSCA) of South Africa (license no. 52858); (3) FP Trading LLC – registered with the Financial Services Authority of Saint Vincent & the Grenadines (SVG) under 126 LLC 2019; and (4) FP Trading Ltd. – registered in Saint Lucia (FSRA no. 2026‑00106).

FP Trading is also an Approved Member of The Financial Commission, an independent external dispute resolution (EDR) organisation that offers complaint handling and a compensation fund of up to €20,000 per eligible complaint. Membership was announced on March 16, 2026.

Client Fund Protection

The broker states that client money is held in segregated accounts separate from company funds. Segregation helps reduce commingling risk and facilitates client money reconciliation — important if a firm becomes insolvent. Additionally, FP Trading advertises a $1,000,000 insurance program underwritten via the Lloyd’s market, designed to add an extra layer of protection for specific operational risks (e.g., fraud, operational error, system failure). This insurance is not the same as statutory investor compensation but may complement existing safeguards.

Security measures

The website references periodic external audits, corporate‑governance controls, and the use of established trading platforms (MT4/MT5/cTrader). Platform‑level encryption and established vendor ecosystems are relevant for operational resilience and order‑routing stability. As with any multi‑entity broker, conditions and protections can vary by jurisdiction; traders should verify the entity that will service their account and confirm details on the official regulator registers (e.g., FSCA FSP search; FSC Mauritius licensee search) before depositing funds.

거래 가능한 상품

Account Types

FP Trading offers two live account profiles across its platforms — Standard and Raw — plus Islamic (swap‑free) variants and demo access via the portal.

Islamic (swap‑free) versions of both accounts are available on MT4/MT5/cTrader; swaps are replaced with an administration fee (with limited no‑fee nights on selected pairs). Both accounts support EAs/algos, 0.01‑lot minimum trade size, and are accessible on desktop, web, and mobile.

지원되는 플랫폼

Traders can choose among MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5, and cTrader. MT4 remains popular for FX algos and legacy indicators; MT5 expands symbols/timeframes and adds depth‑of‑market; cTrader focuses on transparency, advanced order management, and native automation/APIs. Selecting a platform largely depends on your strategy, indicator/EAs library, and whether you value cTrader’s native features or MetaTrader’s broader third‑party ecosystem.

• MetaTrader 4 (MT4)
• MetaTrader 5 (MT5)

MetaTrader 4: Suits traders who want a lightweight interface, one‑click trading, custom indicators, and EAs with straightforward backtesting. FP Trading quotes floating spreads, up to 1:500 leverage (entity/instrument‑dependent), and supports mobile apps for iOS/Android.

MetaTrader 5: Adds more order types, improved tester, more symbols/timeframes versus MT4. It’s a practical path if you trade multi‑asset beyond FX or prefer newer tooling while keeping compatibility with many MT5‑native algos.

cTrader: Emphasises fast execution, advanced charting, cTrader Copy for social strategies, and cTrader Algo/cBots for automation, plus an Open API for custom workflows. Good fit for discretionary day traders and quants who want more control over order routing and analytics.

Mobile platforms: All three platforms are available on iOS/Android and support push notifications, interactive charts, and full order management, which helps manage risk and entries from anywhere. WebTrader access is provided via the client portal.

Trading Features

Commission and Fees

Pricing depends on the chosen account and platform. The Standard account embeds trading costs into variable spreads (e.g., from 1.0 pip on major FX), making cost calculation simple for newer or lower‑frequency traders. The Raw account targets tighter quotes (from 0.0 pips) plus a commission per side per standard lot. On MT4/MT5, the commission schedule is shown in the fees table with currency‑based equivalents (e.g., USD 3.00, EUR 2.75, GBP 2.25, etc. per side). On cTrader, FP Trading lists USD $3 per lot each way (converted to the account base currency). This structure is generally attractive for scalpers and high‑volume strategies because the bid‑ask component can be minimised.

For equity and ETF CFDs, the broker publishes exchange‑specific commission tiers (e.g., US NYSE/Nasdaq 2 cents/share, UK 0.10% with a £2 minimum, EU 0.10% with a €2 minimum, AU 0.05% with a A$5 minimum, HK 0.20% with a US$2 minimum). These charges matter if you frequently trade single‑stock CFDs where per‑share or percentage fees can add up quickly relative to position size and holding period.

Swap/overnight financing applies when positions are held past the platform’s daily cutoff; the broker maintains a live swap‑rates page and notes that values can differ by symbol and direction (long/short). Understanding swap behaviour is crucial for trend/carry strategies and for deciding whether to hold or flatten before rollover. Islamic (swap‑free) accounts replace swaps with an administration fee.

Non‑trading fees: The FAQ specifies that FP Trading does not charge withdrawal fees, though third‑party processors may. The site does not list an inactivity‑fee policy on the pages we reviewed; confirm in legal documents if this is material to your use case.

Deposits and Withdrawals

Deposits

Funding methods include bank transfer, Visa/Mastercard, and cryptocurrencies. The FAQ indicates deposits can be in USD, EUR, GBP, or PLN, with timing dependent on method (bank wires typically 1–3 business days; card is usually fastest once verified).

Withdrawals

Withdrawal requests are submitted via the Client Portal and, if all information is correct, are usually completed within 2–10 business days. FP Trading does not charge withdrawal fees, but your bank or payment provider may. Initial deposits must be returned to the original funding methods before alternative payout routes can be used for profits.

Methods

• Bank transfers (local/international)
• Visa/Mastercard
• Cryptocurrencies (including USDT) — useful for speed and reduced intermediary fees

Minimum first deposit for live accounts is advertised as USD 100 (or equivalent). Always confirm the servicing entity and applicable funding rules during onboarding.
