Risk warning: CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. Most retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money.

What Is JustMarkets?

JustMarkets traces its roots back to 2012, when it launched as JustForex. The company adopted the JustMarkets brand in 2021 by extending its trading offering. The broker now offers forex and CFD trading across multiple asset classes.

JustMarkets operates through multiple regulated entities. It serves clients in different markets with stronger focus on retail traders outside the UK, EU, and US in 190+ countries. JustMarkets focuses its offering on low entry requirements, high leverage for eligible traders, and automatic swap-free trading on all live accounts.

JustMarkets assigns each client to a specific entity based on their country of residence. Just Global Markets Ltd is licensed by the Seychelles FSA under Securities Dealer license. It handles most of JustMarkets' international clients outside the EU, UK, and South Africa.

JustMarkets keeps its account lineup simple with four options: Standard Cent, Standard, Pro, and Raw Spread. Traders can start with as little as $10, while the Raw Spread account targets scalpers and active traders who prefer commission-based pricing.

JustMarkets removes swap charges from the equation by making all live accounts swap-free across its entire instrument range.

Most brokers require a separate Islamic account application. They often restrict swap-free trading to a limited instrument list or apply a widened spread instead. JustMarkets applies it universally, without an application process, which is rare in this market segment.

For this review, BrokersProfile opened a Standard account and a Raw Spread account under the FSC (Mauritius) entity, the jurisdiction our test team's country of residence is routed to. We tested JustMarkets live for 26 consecutive trading days from June through July 2026. We recorded all spread, execution, deposit, and withdrawal results directly from these funded accounts, using real capital throughout the testing period.

How We Reviewed JustMarkets

We conducted this JustMarkets review over a 26-day live testing period from June to July 2026. BrokersProfile opened a Standard account and a Raw Spread account. We funded accounts with $300 via a combination of card deposit and USDT (TRC20), registered under the FSC Mauritius entity at Just Global Markets (MU) Limited. We collected all spread, execution, deposit, and withdrawal data under live market conditions using real capital.

BrokersProfile maintains full editorial independence. Any affiliate relationship with JustMarkets does not influence our scores, findings, or conclusions.

Spread Monitoring

We kept both JustMarkets accounts open and checked their pricing throughout the trading day over the 26-day test. We revisited the MT5 trade ticket every five minutes during the Asian, London, and London–New York sessions. We tracked how spreads moved on EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY, Gold, and US30. This let us see the spreads traders actually experience during different market conditions, and not just follow the broker’s advertised pricing.

Execution Speed Testing

We placed 280 live market orders across forex majors, Gold, and index CFDs on the live Raw Spread account. For each order, we recorded the fill time in milliseconds. We carefully noticed whether slippage worked for or against us and by how much, and kept track of any requotes.

Customer Support Mystery Shopping

We contacted support via live chat, email, and in-app messaging with five standardized queries: minimum deposits by account type, Raw Spread commission structure, the swap-free policy, copy trading fund allocation, and dormancy fee conditions. We rated each response for speed, accuracy, professionalism, and whether they resolved the issue on the first contact.

Regulatory Verification

We manually checked JustMarkets' active licenses against official public registers in July 2026 – CySEC, FSA Seychelles, FSCA, and FSC Mauritius. We checked each entity separately to confirm its license status and whether a compensation scheme covers client funds.

Our Testing Methodology

We looked beyond the broker's advertised features and tested the areas that directly affect the trading experience. Our review covered regulation, live pricing, execution, costs, platforms, support, and user feedback.

Testing Pillar

What We Measured and How

1. Regulatory Verification

We checked every JustMarkets license against the relevant official public register. We recorded the license number, current status, and verification date, then reviewed enforcement records and regulatory warnings.

2. Live Spread Monitoring

We followed spreads for 26 trading days, checking prices every five minutes across the Asian, London, and London–New York sessions. We recorded the minimum, maximum, and average spread for each tested instrument on funded accounts.

3. Execution Speed Testing

We placed 280 live market orders during periods of strong liquidity. For every trade, we measured fill time in milliseconds and recorded the direction and size of slippage, along with any requotes.

4. Cost Analysis

We calculated the costs traders actually face rather than looking at spreads alone. Our comparison covered commissions, swap charges, deposit and withdrawal fees, and inactivity costs for two different trading profiles.

5. Platform Evaluation

We spent at least two weeks using MT4, MT5, and the JustMarkets mobile app. We tested charting, order types, Expert Advisor support, mobile functionality, and copy-trading features during normal trading.

6. Customer Support Testing

We contacted support with five standardized questions through live chat, email, and in-app messaging. We then rated each interaction based on response time, accuracy, professionalism, and whether the agent solved the issue on the first contact.

7. User Sentiment Review

We reviewed 120+ verified customer reviews from Trustpilot and independent forums. We grouped the feedback by rating level to identify the issues and strengths customers mentioned most often.

What We Found During Our Testing

Spreads

Spread cost at JustMarkets differs meaningfully by account type, and the gap is one of the more important findings from our testing window. On the Raw Spread account, we recorded a 0.10 pip average on EUR/USD during the London session and the London–New York overlap. With the flat $3 per lot per side commission, that produces an all-in cost of approximately $5.10 per standard lot on EUR/USD — a genuinely competitive figure for a broker in the offshore/multi-jurisdiction tier, sitting close to what mid-tier ECN specialists charge.

On the Standard account, we recorded a 0.90 pip average on EUR/USD during the London session, which is wider than JustMarkets' published "from 0.3 pips" marketing figure but broadly consistent with independent third-party testing of the same account type. For active traders placing 10 or more standard lots per week, the Standard account costs roughly $70–$90 more per month on EUR/USD alone compared with the Raw Spread account, even after accounting for the commission. The Standard account's no-commission structure suits infrequent traders who value simplicity; it becomes an expensive way to trade at any meaningful frequency.

During the June 2026 US CPI release, the Raw Spread account’s EUR/USD spread briefly jumped to 2.9 pips then it returned to normal levels within about 35 seconds.

The Standard account reached 5.4 pips on the same event window. it is common to get wider spreads during major economic releases with hybrid and market-maker-style execution models, as markets often become more unstable and available liquidity drops. This is a consistent behavior we recorded while testing other brokers with same liquidity setup.

Execution

We placed 280 live market orders on the Raw Spread account across forex majors, Gold, and the US30 index CFD.

JustMarkets averaged 165ms during the London session. This puts it around the middle of our 2026 results for offshore-regulated multi-asset brokers. It was visibly slower than ECN brokers such as IC Markets (~28ms) and Pepperstone (~37ms). However, its results were significantly similar to XM (~150ms) and FBS (~180ms).

JustMarkets recorded slightly more negative than positive slippage in our test (7.5% vs 6.1%). The difference is small, but it shows that fills were not completely balanced. The actual slippage on individual trades remained low. Three requotes across 280 orders is a low but non-zero figure, occurring during the London–New York overlap on GBP/USD.

Account Opening

Our registration process took approximately 11 minutes. We entered personal details, selected our country of residence (which automatically routed us to the FSC Mauritius entity), uploaded KYC documents (passport and a recent bank statement), and selected our account type and platform. Verification was confirmed within 6 hours, a reasonable turnaround though slower than the fastest brokers in our 2026 review series. Our $300 deposit, split between a card payment and a USDT (TRC20) top-up, cleared and appeared in the MT5 account within 4 minutes for the card portion and under 15 minutes for the crypto portion.

Withdrawals

1 - $150 via USDT (TRC20): We submitted the request on a Wednesday at 11:05 UTC. JustMarkets processed it same day; funds arrived in our external wallet within 48 minutes, including blockchain confirmation time. This was among the faster crypto withdrawal experiences we recorded in our 2026 testing series.

2 - $100 via Visa card: We submitted this request on Thursday. JustMarkets processed the request within 24 hours internally. Card network settlement added a further 3 business days. Total time: 4 business days. JustMarkets charged no fee on either transaction, which matches the broker’s policy of charging no internal fees.

We tested five queries through live chat, email, and in-app messaging during the London session.

We waited 11 hours for an email reply to our inactivity fee question. It took longer to response as compared to their live chat, but in the end, they gave us the correct information.

Our Honest Take at BrokersProfile

JustMarkets focuses on making trading accessible to everyday traders. this review represents the areas where the broker focuses well, but it also highlights where the broker falls short.

The broker offers the $10 minimum deposit on Standard Cent and Standard accounts, with leverage up to 1:3000 for eligible international clients. This makes JustMarkets one of the easiest entry points for new traders into live forex and CFD trading we have tested in 2026. The Raw Spread account's 0.10 pip EUR/USD average and ~$5.10 all-in cost per lot in our live testing is competitive. JustMarkets applies automatic swap-free policy to every account and instrument without requiring an application, a feature few brokers of this size offer.

When you look beyond the broker’s marketing the drawbacks become clearer. Our 165ms average execution during the London session is good but not fast by ECN standards. The slightly higher rate of negative slippage we recorded is may be important for traders running high-frequency strategies, even when there is a small difference.

CySEC provides EU-level, MiFID II-grade protection with ICF coverage up to €20,000, However, most JustMarkets clients fall under the FSA Seychelles, FSC Mauritius, or BVI FSC entities, where investor protections are more limited. Some JustMarkets-related entities have appeared on a regulator’s warning list over unauthorized solicitation. This does not automatically mean the broker’s regulated entities are unsafe. However, we recommend traders should check the relevant entity and license before depositing funds.

The 260+ instrument range is satisfactory for a forex-and-gold-focused trader. The range is more limited outside forex, especially for stocks, indices, and crypto, where brokers such as Exness and XM offer broader coverage.

The in-house Copytrading platform is a useful addition for traders who prefer a more hands-off approach. The Risk Score ranking system is a sensible filter. Any trader using it should independently verify a provider's track record before investing capital.

Our Verdict: JustMarkets earns its BP Score™ of 79/100 on the strength of its extremely low entry barrier, competitive Raw Spread pricing, universal swap-free policy, and multi-jurisdictional regulatory coverage that includes a CySEC/MiFID II license. It is best suited to beginner and intermediate traders who want to start with minimal capital. It is also suitable for swing or position traders who benefit from the no-swap structure. Traders who prefer the fastest execution, the deepest possible instrument library, or exclusively Tier-1 regulatory protection will find better-matched options elsewhere in our broker database.

Is JustMarkets Safe? – Regulation & Safety

JustMarkets holds four active regulatory licenses across four distinct jurisdictions. It is a significant regulatory coverage for a broker in this market segment. However, the strength of protection varies by entity. Before opening an account with JustMarkets, check which entity will hold your account. JustMarkets assigns the entity based on your country of residence. This choice determines the level of regulatory protection you receive.

CySEC license 401/21 offers JustMarkets’ strongest level of investor protection. EU/EEA clients receive MiFID II protections. It allows access to the ICF with coverage of up to €20,000, and a 1:30 retail leverage limit.

The FSA Seychelles, FSCA South Africa, FSC Mauritius, and BVI FSC entities serve most of JustMarkets’ international clients. However, they do not provide the same statutory compensation protection as the CySEC entity.

This is standard for offshore-licensed multi-jurisdiction brokers and not limited to JustMarkets. However, it's a different risk profile that traders should consider when deciding how much to trade.

A note on regulatory warnings: A national regulator has previously listed a JustMarkets-associated entity in a public warning over unauthorized solicitation in its jurisdiction. This is common among offshore brokers that target international clients. It doesn't necessarily indicate misconduct by the licensed entities. However, traders should independently verify current regulatory standing before depositing funds. We recommend checking that the payment channel is officially authorized in your country before funding an account.

Security Practices

Client Fund Segregation

JustMarkets states that it holds client funds in separated bank accounts at reputable, well-capitalized institutions, separate from the company's operating capital, across the group's regulated entities. We always expect such behavior from any broker we recommend as a baseline safety feature

Negative Balance Protection

JustMarkets provides negative balance protection across all retail accounts, regardless of the entity. This means traders should not lose more than the funds they have if extreme market moves or price gaps push a position deeply into loss. That protection matters even more on international entities, where leverage can reach 1:3000.

Semi-Automated Monitoring

JustMarkets uses automated and manual checks to monitor customers and transactions, identify potential risks, and meet its AML requirements across the jurisdictions where it operates.

Risk Management Tools

JustMarkets supports stop-loss, take-profit, and trailing stop orders across MT4, MT5, and the mobile app. Margin call and stop-out levels determine how much room a leveraged trade has before the broker closes it. Traders should confirm the stop-out level for their specific account and entity before trading at high leverage.

All JustMarkets accounts include MetaTrader’s built-in risk tools, such as position sizing, margin level tracking, and one-click order changes. JustMarkets also provides pip and margin calculators on its website. This can be particularly useful for Cent account traders working with smaller lot sizes.

Live-Tested Spread Data – 26-Day Average (June–July 2026)

We monitored JustMarkets' live spreads across 26 consecutive trading days from mid-June to mid-July 2026. All data was sampled at 5-minute intervals across three daily sessions. We recorded this data directly from the MT5 trade ticket on live funded accounts under the FSC (Mauritius) entity.

We recorded an average 0.90-pip EUR/USD spread on the Standard account over 26 days. That is wider than JustMarkets’ advertised “from 0.3 pips”, but the two figures measure different things – where the 0.3-pip figure is a minimum. Our figure reflects the spreads we actually saw during regular trading over 26 days. This is a practical spread experience for infrequent or swing traders holding a no-commission account. However, it is not a competitive figure for active intraday trading.

The Raw Spread account EUR/USD average of 0.10 pips matches Exness Raw and XM Zero in our live testing. With the $3-per-lot-per-side commission, the total cost comes to about $5.10 per standard lot, which keeps JustMarkets competitive among brokers offering low deposits and high leverage.

JustMarkets delivered a 1.60-point Gold (XAU/USD) spread on its Raw Spread account in our test. That was tighter than XM Zero at 1.80 points and HFM Zero at 1.70 points. The result stands out because gold is also one of the markets JustMarkets heavily promotes to its clients.

Real Cost of a Trade – Two Trader Profiles

Profile A – Beginner Trader, EUR/USD, Standard Account, 1 Standard Lot

Average spread (London session): 0.90 pips | Commission: $0.00 | Total cost per lot: approx. $9.00 | Swap: $0 (swap-free by default).

At ~$9.00 per standard lot, the Standard account sits in a reasonable middle range for commission-free trading. The automatic swap-free policy removes a variable that beginners often overlook when calculating overnight holding costs.

Profile B – Active Day Trader, EUR/USD, Raw Spread Account, 1 Standard Lot

Average spread: 0.10 pips | Commission (round-turn): $6.00 ($3/side) | Total cost per lot: approx. $7.00 | Swap: $0 (swap-free by default).

At around $7 per standard lot, the Raw Spread account offers good value, especially for traders holding positions for several days. The swap-free policy can further reduce costs for traders who hold overnight positions, compared with brokers that charge daily financing fees.

A trader placing 15 lots/day (~300/month) pays approximately $2,100/month in commission — The pricing holds up well against other high-leverage brokers. However, traders with larger volumes should compare it with dedicated ECN brokers before deciding.

JustMarkets Trading Platforms

JustMarkets supports the two industry-standard MetaTrader platforms – MT4 and MT5. It also supports a browser-based WebTrader and a proprietary mobile app for iOS and Android. The platform choice is standard for this type of broker. However, JustMarkets does not offer cTrader or native TradingView integration, both of which are available with some competitors.

MetaTrader 4 (MT4)

MT4 remains available across all four live account types. It supports the full MQL4 algorithmic environment with no restrictions on strategy type, including scalping, hedging, and grid-based approaches. It runs on Windows desktop, WebTrader, and iOS/Android. JustMarkets applies the same primary execution infrastructure to MT4 as MT5. Therefore, the fill quality does not differ between the two in our testing.

MetaTrader 5 (MT5)

MT5 is JustMarkets' recommended platform for new accounts. It offers a richer feature set than MT4: 21 timeframes versus 9, a built-in economic calendar, a depth-of-market display, and expanded pending order types. It also offers MQL5 support with a multi-threaded strategy tester. It also carries the full 260+ instrument library, including stock CFDs. MT5 is the more capable choice for traders without a specific reason to stay on MT4.

WebTrader and Mobile App

WebTrader offers browser-based access with no download. It is useful for checking positions without installing software. The dedicated mobile app integrates Copytrading, biometric login, and an in-app economic calendar. EA trading works only through MT4 or MT5 desktop. Therefore, traders who use WebTrader or the mobile app need a VPS or desktop setup to run automated strategies.

JustMarkets Standard Cent Account

The Standard Cent account is JustMarkets' entry-level offering. It is designed for trading real market conditions with real money at a fraction of standard position sizing. Trades use cents instead of whole-dollar amounts. A $10 deposit can still give beginners meaningful market experience without taking on the same level of risk that standard-lot trading would create with such a small balance. It's a useful, low-friction way to move from demo to live trading without a large capital commitment.

JustMarkets Standard Account

JustMarkets' most popular tier applies a no-commission, spread-inclusive pricing model. Our 26-day live test recorded a 0.90 pip average on EUR/USD during London hours. We found it wider than the marketing figure, but it remained practical for traders who do not trade frequently.

It works well for daily-chart traders and more measured intraday strategies. It's not the right account for scalping, where the Raw Spread account's cost advantage becomes significant.

JustMarkets Pro Account

The Pro account offers a middle ground between Standard and Raw Spread. It offers tighter spreads (from 0.1 pips) with no commission at all. That setup is less common because tighter spreads usually come with a separate commission at other brokers.

It's a reasonable middle-ground for traders who dislike commission math but want tighter pricing. It is particularly suitable for gold traders holding positions across multiple hours.

JustMarkets Raw Spread Account

Raw Spread is JustMarkets’ main account for active traders. It replaces the former ECN Zero account. It targets scalpers and day traders who want tighter spreads and commission-based pricing.

It applies a flat $3 per side ($6 round-turn) commission on top of spreads from 0.0 pips. Our live testing showed an average EUR/USD spread of 0.10 pips, matching JustMarkets’ published pricing. It offers a comparatively accessible route into ECN-style trading on a $200 deposit. However, the entry requirement is higher than the $10 minimum on Standard and Standard Cent.

JustMarkets Demo Account

Demo account is available on MT4 and MT5 with a configurable virtual balance up to $5,000,000. This account replicates live pricing. This gives traders plenty of room to test strategies without putting real money at risk.

JustMarkets Markets & Instruments

JustMarkets provides access to 260+ tradable CFD instruments across five asset classes. The selection covers most retail trading needs. However, it becomes less competitive outside forex and gold, where larger multi-asset brokers offer more stocks and indices.

The 60–70 forex pairs cover all majors and minors plus a reasonable selection of exotic pairs. The 65+ stock CFDs give traders a useful selection. It still offers less as compared with brokers that offer hundreds of stocks. Traders whose strategy depends on a wide stock universe should verify JustMarkets' specific list against their target names. JustMarkets offers 8 precious metals and 3 energy markets, which is a strong selection for a broker of its size. Gold stands out in particular, with our live testing showing tight and competitive spreads. JustMarkets offers 14–16 crypto CFDs, which covers the major coins but leaving out many of the smaller altcoins.

JustMarkets does not offer real stock ownership, ETFs, bonds, options, or futures – everything is a CFD. Traders who need direct asset ownership rather than derivative exposure should look elsewhere.

JustMarkets Execution & Speed

Live Execution Data – 280 Market Orders (June–July 2026)

We placed 280 market orders across forex majors (EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY), gold (XAU/USD), and the US30 index CFD on the live FSC-entity Raw Spread account during peak liquidity hours across the London and London–New York overlap sessions.

JustMarkets’ 165ms average EUR/USD fill time during the London session was slower than Exness (95ms), HFM (89ms), and XM (150ms), but faster than FBS (180ms). This places it around the middle of its peer group rather than among the fastest brokers. This difference is irrelevant for most swing and position traders. However, high-frequency scalpers should consider the gap versus Exness and HFM.

We recorded a 1.1% requote rate across 280 live orders, including trades placed during the June CPI release and a later rate decision. That is a low rate, although requotes did occur. Traders using latency-sensitive strategies should keep in mind that requotes can still occur when markets become highly volatile.

Opening an Account with JustMarkets – Step-by-Step

JustMarkets' account opening process is fully digital and completed in approximately 10–15 minutes in our testing.

Step 1: How to Register Your Account

Visit justmarkets.com and click "Open Account." Enter your email address, or register via Google/Facebook single sign-on. Your country of residence, entered during registration, determines automatic routing to one of JustMarkets' four regulated entities — EU/EEA residents to CySEC (JustMarkets Ltd), South African residents to FSCA, and most other jurisdictions to FSA Seychelles or FSC Mauritius depending on internal routing rules. Confirm your email via the verification link sent immediately after registration.

Step 2: How to Provide Personal Information

Enter your full name, date of birth, residential address, and phone number. CySEC-entity applicants will additionally complete a trading knowledge and experience questionnaire required under MiFID II to assess CFD product suitability.

Step 3: How to Upload KYC Documents

Upload a government-issued photo ID (passport, driver's license, or national ID card) and proof of address (a utility bill or bank statement dated within the last three months). Our FSC-entity KYC verification was confirmed within 6 hours; CySEC-entity verification, which involves additional suitability checks, has been reported by other reviewers to take slightly longer.

Step 4: How to Choose Your Trading Account

Select your account type among Standard Cent, Standard, Pro, or Raw Spread. Traders should note that this choice is normally permanent for that specific account. Though, they can open additional accounts of a different type later. Choose your base currency and preferred platform (MT4 or MT5).

Step 5: How to Fund and Begin Trading

Minimum deposit is $10 for Standard Cent and Standard accounts, and $200 for Pro and Raw Spread accounts. These limits may differ by entity or promotion, so check the current figure in your Personal Area before making a deposit. Deposit via card, bank wire, e-wallet, or cryptocurrency. Card and crypto deposits generally process quickly. Log into your chosen platform once funds appear and begin trading.

JustMarkets Deposit & Withdrawal

JustMarkets applies a zero internal fee policy on standard deposit and withdrawal methods. The broker doesn’t apply any charges on either direction of a transaction under normal circumstances. Though third-party payment processors or card networks may apply their own charges outside JustMarkets' control.

Our Live Withdrawal Test

Our USDT (TRC20) withdrawal of $150 processed fee-free within 48 minutes end-to-end, including blockchain confirmation. This was one of the faster crypto withdrawal experiences we have recorded across our 2026 broker review series. Our Visa card withdrawal of $100 was processed by JustMarkets within 24 hours internally. The card network settlement added a further 3 business days for a total of 4 business days. JustMarkets didn’t charge a fee on either transaction.

Dormancy Fee

JustMarkets charges a $5 monthly inactivity fee if your account has been inactive for 150 consecutive days.

This is a moderate policy relative to peers. JustMarkets starts charging sooner than Tickmill, which uses a 12-month threshold, but later than brokers that charge after just 90 days. If you plan to stop trading for a while, consider withdrawing your remaining funds or checking whether logging in resets the inactivity period before the 150-day mark.

Bonuses and Promotions

JustMarkets has offered a $30 no-deposit bonus and deposit bonuses of up to 120% in various promotional periods. Though availability depends on the client's regulated entity. For example, CySEC-regulated EU clients are generally not eligible for deposit bonuses under MiFID II inducement rules. On the other hand, clients on the FSA Seychelles or FSC Mauritius entities may see different offer availability. Always read the specific terms and conditions attached to any live promotion before opting in. Bonus funds typically carry trading-volume conditions before they (or associated profits) become withdrawable.

JustMarkets Leverage

JustMarkets' leverage structure is determined primarily by the regulatory entity a client is registered under, with CySEC-regulated EU clients subject to the MiFID II retail cap and international entity clients eligible for substantially higher leverage.

The 1:3000 leverage available to eligible clients on the FSA Seychelles and FSC Mauritius entities is among the highest offered by any broker in our 2026 database. It exceeds even Exness and HFM in some categories. High leverage can increase buying power while also making losses much larger. Negative balance protection helps ensure that a losing trade cannot push the account below zero. Traders should treat maximum leverage as a ceiling to use carefully, not the main choice.

First contact (email)

Our average live chat response time across the applicable queries was 2 minutes 40 seconds. It was a strong and faster result than several brokers we have tested in the same competitive tier. They handled our swap-free policy and Raw Spread commission queries accurately and confidently. JustMarkets’ support team showed a good understanding of the broker’s main products and features. The copy trading query required a follow-up message before they provided a complete answer. We consider it a minor but notable gap for a broker that markets Copytrading as a signature feature. The 11-hour email response is fine for routine questions, but it is too slow for anything time-sensitive.

JustMarkets Education & Research

JustMarkets maintains an educational content library covering forex fundamentals, CFD basics, technical analysis introductions, and platform tutorials for MT4 and MT5. The broker also publishes market analysis and a free trading tools section. It also has pip and margin calculators plus an economic calendar, accessible from its website and mobile app.

Educational Resources

The educational content covers the basics well and is available in several languages, which suits JustMarkets’ international audience. However, the content is not as detailed or structured as the multi-course academies offered by larger brokers. Traders who want live webinars or guidance from instructors will likely need to use outside resources as well. We noticed that independent reviewers have also pointed out this limitation.

JustMarkets Copytrading

JustMarkets' in-house Copytrading platform lets clients automatically copy other users' trades. Each signal is ranked using a proprietary Risk Score based on past instability and drawdown. It can be useful for traders who prefer a passive strategy. It becomes convenient to have it built directly into the platform. As with any copy trading system, past results do not guarantee future performance, and your money is still exposed to market risk. Traders should use the Risk Score as a guide, not as a replacement for their own research.

JustMarkets Mobile Trading

JustMarkets offers mobile trading through both MetaTrader mobile apps (MT4/MT5) and its own proprietary app, available on iOS and Android. The proprietary app includes account management, deposits and withdrawals, Copytrading, and an economic calendar into a single interface, alongside biometric login.

We placed a sample of live orders via the JustMarkets app during the London session. We found execution broadly consistent with desktop MT5 performance, without adding clear delays to mobile orders. The proprietary app offers a simpler and more streamlined experience than MetaTrader’s mobile app. It is ideal for traders who manage their positions from their phone instead of using automated strategies. It is particularly best for monitoring Copytrading allocations across multiple accounts.

JustMarkets Overnight Funding / Swap Rates

The broker's approach differs structurally from almost every competitor covered elsewhere on BrokersProfile: every JustMarkets live account is swap-free by default, on every instrument, with no application process.

Most brokers charge an overnight swap as a fee or credit. This fee is charged based on the interest-rate difference between currencies or the cost of holding commodities and indices. Swap-free treatment usually requires a separate Islamic account. It is often available only on a limited range of instruments.

JustMarkets instead applies swap-free status automatically to all account types, across the full instrument range. It is equally applicable for all clients irrespective of religious association or stated reason.

This is an advantage for swing and position traders who hold multi-day or multi-week positions. It removes an entire category of ongoing cost. Traders should keep in mind that brokers offering universal swap-free trading may recover some of the cost through wider spreads instead of a separate fee. Our 0.90-pip average EUR/USD spread on the Standard account is important to consider alongside the swap-free policy.

The “no swap” benefit is real, but it does not always make long-term trading cheaper once you consider the total cost.

JustMarkets VPS Hosting & Algorithmic Trading

JustMarkets does not provide its own free or discounted VPS service, unlike some competitors that offer VPS access to qualifying traders. Traders running latency-sensitive expert advisors should plan to use a third-party low-latency VPS provider positioned near JustMarkets' trade servers. They should confirm current server location with support first, as co-location decisions affect round-trip latency for high-frequency strategies.

EA Compatibility and Algorithmic Trading

JustMarkets fully supports MQL4/MQL5 on both MT4 and MT5 across all account types. It doesn’t impose any restrictions on scalping, hedging, or grid-based EA strategies. The MT5 multi-threaded strategy tester is available for backtesting. This makes JustMarkets an effective choice for algorithmic traders who prefer low minimum deposit and high leverage over dedicated VPS infrastructure. Traders should compare JustMarkets’ average speed with faster ECN-focused brokers for strategies where execution speed can affect profits.

Not Suitable For

  • Traders who want the fastest possible execution as our 165ms London-session average trails Exness (95ms) and HFM (89ms)
  • Traders who specifically require Tier-1 regulatory protection (FCA, ASIC) as most international clients sit under FSA Seychelles, FSC Mauritius, or FSC BVI entities without an equivalent compensation scheme
  • Traders seeking real stock ownership, ETFs, bonds, or futures as JustMarkets' entire product range is CFD-based
  • Traders who want the widest range of markets, as JustMarkets’ 260+ instruments are more limited than those offered by the largest multi-asset brokers, especially outside forex and gold.
  • Traders who want a free, broker-provided VPS because JustMarkets does not appear to offer an in-house VPS program
  • EU/EEA clients looking for deposit bonuses or 1:3000 leverage as CySEC retail accounts are limited to 1:30 leverage and are generally not eligible for deposit promotions.
  • Traders who prioritize deep, structured education with live instructor-led courses
  • Traders uncomfortable with offshore regulatory structures, as most of the client base trades under FSA Seychelles or FSC Mauritius rather than Tier-1 oversight

Choose JustMarkets If… / Don't Choose If…

Choose JustMarkets If:

  • You want to start live trading with minimal capital as the $10 minimum deposit is among the lowest entry points we have tested
  • You are a swing or position trader who wants to avoid overnight swap charges, as every account is swap-free by default
  • You are an active gold trader as our testing found competitively tight XAU/USD spreads on the Raw Spread account
  • You want very high leverage and accept the reduced protections of an offshore entity – International clients can access up to 1:3000
  • You want a built-in copy trading solution integrated into the broker's own mobile app with a proprietary Risk Score system
  • You are an EU/EEA client who wants CySEC/MiFID II oversight with ICF compensation coverage

Don't Choose JustMarkets If:

  • You need the fastest possible order execution for high-frequency scalping – dedicated ECN specialists post meaningfully faster fills
  • You require FCA or ASIC-level protection on your specific account – JustMarkets' CySEC entity is the strongest license but not what most clients are routed to
  • You want to trade real shares, ETFs, or futures rather than CFDs exclusively
  • You want a large, deep instrument library spanning thousands of stock CFDs
  • You need a dedicated, broker-provided VPS for latency-sensitive algorithmic trading

Bottom Line

JustMarkets occupies a clear position in the 2026 retail broker landscape. It is an accessible, low-minimum-deposit, high-leverage broker built for traders who want to start with limited capital. it is ideal for traders who value a swap-free structure over the fastest possible execution or the deepest regulatory tier. Our 26-day live test found a Raw Spread account delivering a competitive 0.10 pip EUR/USD average and an all-in cost of roughly $5.10–$7.00 per standard lot. We recorded a 165ms average execution speed. Traders should consider a 1.1% requote rate into expectations for latency-sensitive strategies.

CySEC offers EU-level protection with ICF compensation coverage. On the other hand, the FSA Seychelles, FSC Mauritius, and FSC BVI entities serving most international clients do not provide the same level of protection. Independent reports have also linked a JustMarkets-related entity to at least one regulatory warning about unauthorized solicitation. Prospective clients should verify their assigned entity before depositing. The universal swap-free policy is a real advantage, especially for traders who hold positions for several days or longer.

JustMarkets earns a BP Score™ of 79/100 for its low entry barrier, competitive Raw Spread pricing, and universal swap-free policy. These strengths are balanced by average execution speeds and a regulatory setup that offers stronger protection to some clients than others.

It is a good fit for beginner and intermediate traders with smaller accounts. It is ideal for swing traders who want to avoid overnight charges, and traders focused on gold. Traders who want the fastest execution, the widest range of markets, or stronger Tier-1 regulation may find better options elsewhere.
