Regulation and Safety

RoboForex Ltd is registered with the FSC in Belize, an offshore regulator. It adds private protections: category A membership of The Financial Commission, whose Compensation Fund covers up to €20,000 per case, civil liability insurance of up to €2,500,000, and negative balance protection.

IUX Markets (MU) Ltd holds an Investment Dealer licence from the FSC in Mauritius and operates iux.com. A related Australian company holds an ASIC licence but does not serve clients through the site. IUX is a member of The Financial Commission and resets negative balances to zero.

Neither broker holds a top-tier licence such as the FCA’s or ASIC’s for the clients it serves internationally, and neither offers a government-backed compensation scheme. Keep deposits proportionate and check which company your client agreement names.

Trading Costs

On commission-free accounts, RoboForex lists: Pro and ProCent from 1.3 pips. IUX lists: Standard from 0.2 pips; Pro from 0.1 pips. “From” figures are minimums, so expect wider live spreads, especially around news.

Both offer a raw-spread account. RoboForex: ECN and Prime from 0 pips plus a commission per $1 million traded. IUX: Raw from 0.0 pips plus $7 per lot. For frequent traders, a raw account usually costs less per trade than a spread-only one.

RoboForex lists no inactivity fee. IUX lists no inactivity fee. Withdrawal fees: RoboForex: by method (for example Skrill 1%, cards up to 2.6% + $1.30); first withdrawal free on three Tuesdays a month; IUX: none from IUX.

Platforms and Copy Trading

RoboForex offers MT4, MT5 and R StocksTrader. IUX offers MT5, IUX Trade App and IUX WebTerminal.

RoboForex’s copy trading: Copy Trading Service (formerly CopyFX), from $100. IUX has no copy trading service of its own (none of its own (third-party Myfxbook AutoTrade)). Copying another trader doesn’t remove risk: you can lose money as fast as trading yourself.

Leverage

RoboForex’s maximum leverage: 1:2000 on Pro and ProCent; 1:500 on ECN; 1:300 on Prime. IUX’s: 1:3000 (cut to 1:400 around high-impact news).

A higher maximum is not an advantage in itself. Leverage multiplies losses as fast as gains, so beginners should use far less than either broker allows.

Which One Should You Choose?

Go with RoboForex if:

• You want to start from $10, including on a cent account
• You want thousands of stocks on R StocksTrader
• You want copy trading and a free VPS for active accounts

Go with IUX if:

• You want a low-cost MT5 account from $30
• You want no deposit or withdrawal fees
• You live in one of the countries IUX serves

Whichever you choose, test a small withdrawal early, verify your account before you need your money, and risk only what you can afford to lose.
