JustMarkets review

Risk warning: CFDs are complex leveraged products. Leverage can magnify losses as well as gains, and you may lose your invested capital.

JustMarkets gives MT4 and MT5 users four account types, including Standard and Standard Cent with a stated $10 minimum deposit. That choice is useful for traders comparing spread-based pricing with Raw Spread’s separate commission, but Pro and Raw Spread require $200. The more consequential limitation is that client protections and leverage are tied to the contracting entity: Cyprus investor compensation does not automatically extend to offshore accounts. This makes the broker a more considered fit for traders willing to identify their entity and compare full account costs before choosing.

How we reviewed it: This assessment considers the available account terms, fees, regulatory entity distinctions, platforms and product information; it does not present execution or withdrawal claims as first-hand test results. See our review methodology.

JustMarkets Ltd is identified as the CySEC-regulated entity for EEA accounts (licence 401/21), while Just Global Markets (Pty) Ltd is listed with South Africa’s FSCA (licence 51114). Which company contracts with a client determines the applicable regulatory arrangement, protections and leverage rules.

Regulation and Client Protections

Segregation separates client funds from company operating funds; negative balance protection is intended to limit eligible clients’ liability to their account balance. Neither removes trading risk or guarantees recovery. The Cyprus ICF may compensate eligible retail clients for valid claims up to the lower of 90% of the claim or €20,000; it does not cover trading losses or automatically apply to offshore accounts.

The pricing choice is between spread-only FX pricing on Standard, Standard Cent and Pro, and Raw Spread’s separate commission alongside its quoted spread. For total cost, the relevant comparison is the spread plus any commission for your trade, with overnight financing particularly relevant to positions held past rollover. Non-trading charges can also matter if an account remains inactive or a payment provider applies its own fees.

Spreads, Commissions and Total Trading Costs

Minimum quoted spreads indicate the account’s starting point, not the cost a trader will necessarily pay: floating spreads vary, and Raw Spread’s commission must be added to its spread. Standard and Pro have no separate FX lot commission; Raw Spread lists a $3-per-side, per-lot FX commission, while metals may be charged at $3.50 per side. Compare both components for the instrument and trade size rather than treating the 0.0-pip minimum as a complete cost.

Other Trading and Non-Trading Fees

The $5 monthly inactivity fee applies after 150 consecutive days without activity when the account has a positive balance. JustMarkets says it charges no internal deposit or withdrawal fees, though banks or payment providers may charge separately; conversion costs may also arise through a provider or when trading an asset quoted in another currency.

For a $10 entry point, Standard Cent and Standard both use variable spreads from 0.3 pips without a separate FX lot commission; the Cent account is the smaller-denomination option. Pro raises the minimum to $200 and lists spreads from 0.1 pip, still without a separate FX lot commission. Raw Spread also requires $200, but combines spreads from 0.0 pips with a $3-per-side, per-lot FX commission. The practical choice is therefore not simply the lowest quoted spread: traders should weigh the commission against their expected spread and trade size. All four account types are listed for MT4 and MT5; leverage and availability depend on entity, instrument and applicable restrictions.

Platform choice depends on whether the workflow requires automated execution. Desktop MT4 and MT5 support Expert Advisors, while the WebTerminal does not run automated MQL strategies; it is therefore not a substitute for desktop access when using those systems. The JustMarkets app provides a mobile route for trading and account monitoring, rather than a documented environment for developing bots.

Desktop, Web and Trading Platforms

JustMarkets lists forex alongside index, commodity, stock, crypto and ETF CFDs. These contracts provide price exposure without ownership of the underlying asset; the table’s market-specific restrictions matter when comparing that exposure, including leverage limits and regional exclusions.

The listed range includes 70 forex pairs, 13 indices, 10 commodities, 165 stock CFDs and 17 crypto CFDs. UK retail clients cannot trade crypto derivatives, and ETF CFD availability is not confirmed consistently, so the latter should not be assumed for a particular account.

JustMarkets describes its execution as market execution and notes that news and fast markets can cause slippage or wider floating spreads; this is a description of possible conditions, not a measured execution result. For automated trading, MT4 supports Expert Advisors and MQL4 scripts, while MT5 supports MQL5 automation and a Strategy Tester; these strategies require desktop MT4 or MT5, locally or on a third-party VPS. The broker does not offer a proprietary API. Its copy-trading service includes a Risk Score and proportional copying options for users following or sharing strategies. Market analysis, forecasts, news, charts and an economic calendar support market monitoring, while short videos, forex terminology and trading articles provide introductory education.

Identity verification is required: JustMarkets says clients must submit personal details, a valid photo ID and proof of residence to unlock full account functionality, including deposits, uninterrupted trading and withdrawals. Payment methods and account conditions can vary by location, so confirm the options available to your account before funding.

Account Opening and Identity Verification

Complete the client profile and submit a valid photo ID and proof of residence for KYC verification. The contracting entity and applicable account conditions depend on your location and the account offered to you.

Deposit and Withdrawal Methods

Customer Support

Support is listed as available 24/7 through live chat, the Help Center and Support Hub, Telegram, Instagram, iMessage, Messenger, WhatsApp, phone and email. Listed support languages include English, Indonesian, Malaysian, Spanish, Portuguese, Vietnamese and Arabic. The published contact email is [email protected]; phone contacts are +248 4632052 and +230 2158180.

The key choice is whether low entry cost or a different pricing structure matters more: Standard and Standard Cent list a $10 minimum, while Raw Spread costs more to open and adds commission in exchange for a lower quoted spread. MT4/MT5 account choice is broad, but traders who need a particular investor-protection regime should first establish which entity will hold their account.

For automated MQL trading, the practical dividing line is desktop MT4/MT5 versus the browser terminal; for occasional mobile access, the JustMarkets app is the documented alternative.
