Our review
Eightcap keeps the choice to two accounts and puts the numbers on the page. Standard prices from 1.0 pips with no commission except on shares. Raw prices from 0.0 pips with a commission of $3.50 per standard lot per side, quoted in AUD, USD, NZD, SGD or CAD, or 2.25 in GBP and 2.75 in EUR. Both open from $100, both allow scalping, both run from 0.01 to 100 lots.
Risk settings are more forgiving than most offshore brokers: margin call at 80% and stop-out at 50%. Platform choice is a strength, with TradingView and TradeLocker available as well as MetaTrader 4 and 5, and the instrument list passes 800 CFDs across forex, crypto, shares, commodities and indices.
The pages we read belong to the Bahamas, Seychelles and Mauritius entities, each named with a licence number; Eightcap also has an Australian company for Australian residents. Leverage is not printed on the account page, so confirm it for your entity. For a trader who charts on TradingView and wants a simple raw account, Eightcap is a clean choice.
