The LSE Directory / CFD and forex brokers
RoboForex is an online retail brokerage, founded in 2009 and headquartered in Belize City, Belize, offering forex and CFD trading across currencies, stocks, indices, ETFs, metals, energies, soft commodities and cryptocurrencies. Clients trade through MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 alongside the company's own R StocksTrader, R WebTrader and R MobileTrader platforms; a cTrader offering was discontinued in August 2023 when balances were migrated to MT4/MT5 and R StocksTrader. The company states it lists more than 12,000 tradable instruments across eight asset classes, sourced through eight liquidity providers, with account leverage of up to 1:2000 on its offshore entity. RoboForex differentiates itself through social and copy trading products aimed at retail traders who want to follow other traders' strategies rather than trade manually: CopyFX, which offers proportional, classic and fixed copy modes across MT4, MT5 and R StocksTrader, and RAMM, a PAMM-style account structure in which strategy providers keep half of the profit generated for investors. Geographic and regulatory scope is split by entity: RoboForex Ltd operates under Belize's Financial Services Commission for clients outside the EU, US, Canada and Japan, while EU residents are served by the separately regulated sister entity RoboMarkets Ltd (formerly RoboForex (CY) Ltd), licensed by Cyprus's CySEC under license No. 191/13, with RoboMarkets Deutschland GmbH, regulated by Germany's BaFin, now handling non-CFD retail stock and ETF business in Europe. RoboForex Ltd is registered in Belize under FSC license No. 9759600 (registration number 000001272) and is a Category A member of The Financial Commission, an industry dispute-resolution body whose compensation fund covers client claims up to EUR 20,000 per case; the company also carries civil liability insurance with a EUR 2,500,000 limit. The company states it has received more than 40 industry awards since 2020 from outlets including Finance Magnates, FXEmpire, Global Brands Magazine and Professional Trader Awards, covering categories such as copy trading, order execution and mobile trading. In 2026 RoboForex extended its cost-reduction push and product range: it rolled out swap-free trading (no overnight financing charges) to all new accounts globally in March 2026, having piloted the model in Latin America the prior year, and in April 2026 it added crypto CFDs on bitcoin, ethereum, XRP, solana, dogecoin and cardano alongside expanded local-currency funding options for MT5 accounts. In July 2026 it launched a MobileTrader mini app inside Telegram for account management and trade execution.
