Our verdict on each
Errante
Errante suits active traders who want one account spanning equities, currency, contracts for difference, crypto and metals, and who can work with leverage of 1:1000. EU clients sit under CySEC, and the retail loss share of 40.3% runs below the field, though the starting balance is higher than the cheapest accounts around.
FXTM
FXTM suits traders who want forex, CFDs, futures, crypto and shares under one account, with retail leverage of 1:2000 and dual regulation behind the money. Costs are the compromise: entry is light, but support runs on help centre only, and a dormant account is charged rather than left free.

Pros and cons
Errante
Pros
- One account covers stocks, etfs and forex, so there is no need to hold positions across separate brokers.
- Protection is listed as EU ICS up to EUR 20,000 for clients of the CySEC entity, which is the EU regulated side.
- Copy trading and a mobile app both sit in copy trading and mobile app, so the phone works as a full route to the account.
Cons
- The opening balance of $50 sits well above $0 at CFI and $5 at Vantage, so small accounts start in the wrong place.
- Leverage of 1:1000 is high for a retail account and it cuts both ways on a losing position.
- Retail accounts here lose money at a rate of 40.3%, below the 70.15% across the field but a real part of the account base.
FXTM
Pros
- One account spans stocks, etfs and forex.
- The FCA and CySEC both appear under FCA and CySEC, with FSCS up to GBP 85,000 for UK clients.
- Trading runs on Desktop, Mobile App and MetaTrader 4, and demo account, copy trading and mobile app adds a demo account and copy trading.
Cons
- Dormant balances are charged $5, a cost active traders never meet.
- Support runs on help centre only.
- Leverage of 1:2000 magnifies losses, and 88% of retail accounts lose money.
Who each suits
Errante
Who it suits
- Active retail traders who keep positions in several asset classes and prefer one account and one platform set
- EU clients who want a CySEC licence and EU ICS up to EUR 20,000 rather than an offshore only setup
- Copy trading users who want charts, orders and the mobile app in one place, with MetaTrader 5 and TradingView behind the account
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone starting with a small balance, since CFI opens at $0 and Vantage at $5 against Errante's $50
- Traders who want futures in the same account, since eToro covers stocks, etfs and forex and Errante's list does not carry them
- Traders who want a low leverage ceiling, because 1:1000 leaves the sizing decisions entirely with the client
FXTM
Who it suits
- Traders who want forex, CFDs, futures, crypto and shares in one place from a $10 start.
- Newcomers who want a demo account and copy trading through demo account, copy trading and mobile app.
- Clients who want regulation in the UK and Cyprus under FCA and CySEC.
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone who wants to open with nothing: CFI has a $0 minimum.
- Traders focused on shares, ETFs and crypto rather than bonds and metals: eToro's markets are stocks, etfs and forex.
- Small accounts wanting a cheaper opening: Vantage starts at $5.
Questions about each
Errante
What is the minimum deposit at Errante?+
The minimum deposit is $50. That is a real starting point for an account rather than a token amount, and it sits well above the free entry at CFI, $0, and above Vantage at $5. Anyone funding with a small sum should check whether the broker's own minimum leaves enough room to trade with leverage.
Which regulators licence Errante?+
Errante lists CySEC and FSA (Seychelles). The CySEC licence covers the EU entity and the Seychelles FSA licence covers the offshore entity, so a client should confirm which of the two the account sits with before funding. Both licences sit in different countries, which makes that check worth doing.
FXTM
What does it cost to open and keep an FXTM account?+
Opening an account starts at $10, and the deposit and withdrawal terms read No deposit fees; withdrawal fees vary by method. The fee to watch is the inactivity charge of $5, which bites once an account sits idle, so running costs stay low only while you keep trading.
Is my money protected at FXTM?+
FXTM is regulated by the FCA and CySEC, and the investor protection stated is FSCS up to GBP 85,000. That cover sits with the regulated entity holding the account, so check which one your account is opened with before treating the protection as your own.
