CFD
10TradeFX offers 200+ CFDs available to trade on the MT5 terminal. This is a relatively small range compared to most competitors I've reviewed. That said, the minimum deposit requirement to get started is only $50, which is great news for beginners.

My tests uncovered an average range of 40+ major, minor and exotic currency pairs with spreads as low as 0.1 pips and leverage up to 1:500. I like that the broker offers flexible contract sizes between 0.01 and 1 lot.

Cryptocurrency
There are 10+ crypto instruments available, including Bitcoin, Ethereum and Litecoin. Again, this is pretty limited for active crypto traders but I am glad to see some popular altcoins available 24/7 including Polkadot and Chainlink.	Take positions on dozens of leading cryptocurrencies with low fees and 24/7 investing. Traders need just $1 to start speculating on popular tokens like Bitcoin. Clients can also buy cryptos instantly in a few straightforward steps.
