Review	Review
Founded in 2011, Orbex is an award-winning offshore forex and CFD broker, licensed in Mauritius and the Seychelles. This NDD broker aims to provide clients with transparency, security and market-leading technology. With low trading costs, PAMM accounts and vast education resources, this broker is a popular choice among beginners and expert traders.	EagleFX is an ECN/STP broker that offers spot forex and CFD trading on a small collection of 170+ assets to active traders worldwide. The catch is that it’s registered in the weakly regulated jurisdiction of the Commonwealth of Dominica, providing limited safeguards.
Pros
Access additional trading tools to help you make informed decisions, including integrated Trading Central analysis and a free VPS Excellent monthly webinars aimed at various experience levels plus comprehensive educational hub 24/5 multilingual customer support via telephone, email and live chat Instant deposits and withdrawals via the secure Orbex wallet, with no fees Orbex prepaid card and mobile app allows you to fund, trade and transfer directly from your wallet Member of the Investor Compensation Fund to compensate clients if the broker fails to meet its obligations	EagleFX offers high leverage up to 1:500 on forex trading, which is particularly advantageous for traders seeking higher potential returns, though it also entails increased risk. EagleFX has introduced Bitcoin deposits and expedited withdrawals, which can be processed in under 30 minutes, significantly faster than the majority of brokers we’ve evaluated. EagleFX offers 24/7 support (no phone option) that performed well during testing and 30+ cryptos, making it well-suited for traders navigating volatile crypto markets. EagleFX requires only $10 to open an account, making it accessible for beginners or those who want to start trading with minimal risk. EagleFX offers an unlimited MT4 demo account and zero inactivity fees, making it attractive to traders seeking a risk-free environment to develop trading strategies.
Cons
Prepaid card only available to clients in the Gulf Region and Palestine No copy trading solution No top-tier regulation	EagleFX is not regulated by any major financial authority, which could leave traders without protections such as compensation schemes in case of disputes or insolvency. EagleFX still only offers MetaTrader 4 (MT4) and lacks support for other increasingly popular platforms like MetaTrader 5 (MT5), cTrader, or TradingView, limiting flexibility for traders with specific preferences. EagleFX seriously needs to step up its education with extremely basic guides and no learning articles added since 2022, made worse by the lack of market insights from analysts. The range of 170+ instruments on the EagleFX platform will be extremely limiting for advanced traders, especially compared to category leaders like Blackbull with its 26,000+ tradable assets.
