Pros and cons
Anzo Capital
Pros
- Supports both MetaTrader options for charting and order management.
- Provides mobile trading alongside demo access for flexible preparation.
OANDA
Pros
- No minimum deposit: $0 means the account opens without putting money in first, and OANDA sits at the top of our minimum deposit ranking, ahead of Vantage and its $5.
- Regulated in Britain and the US: FCA and CFTC covers an FCA licence 542574 and a CFTC registration 0325821.
- UK balances sit under protection of FSCS up to GBP 85,000, which pays compensation if the firm cannot return the money.
Cons
- Support runs on email and phone only, which leaves anyone wanting a live chat desk looking at other brokers.
- A retail loss rate of 72% is no better than the site figure of 70.15%, so the risk sits at the sector norm.
- Retail leverage of 1:30 magnifies losses as quickly as gains, and a $0 entry point makes it easy to size positions too large.
Who each suits
Anzo Capital
Who it suits
- Traders who prefer MetaTrader layouts on desktop.
- Traders who want app use with time to practise first.
OANDA
Who it suits
- Traders who want to open an account and start small: the minimum deposit of $0 removes the barrier to funding later.
- Anyone who checks regulators before depositing, since FCA and CFTC and protection of FSCS up to GBP 85,000 are both on record.
- Forex traders who also want shares, ETFs, CFDs, crypto and bonds under one roof: stocks, etfs and forex.
Who should look elsewhere
- Futures traders, who get a longer list at eToro, where stocks, etfs and forex adds futures to the stocks, etfs and forex on offer here.
- Traders who want nothing beyond shares, ETFs, forex, CFDs and crypto, since CFI's stocks, etfs and forex covers that core without the bonds.

How is my money protected if something goes wrong?+
