Our verdict on each
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.
Just2Trade
Just2Trade describes Open API access for integrating third-party trading programs and a demo account for exploring market trading.

Questions about each
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.
How do deposits and withdrawals work?+
The deposit and withdrawal position is summarised as No deposit fees; withdrawal fees vary by method, and funding starts from a $10 minimum. Withdrawal costs vary with the method you pick, so the cost of moving money out, rather than in, is the part to check before funding.
Which platforms can I trade on?+
FXTM offers Desktop, Mobile App and MetaTrader 4, which includes the MetaTrader range alongside its own desktop and mobile app. The feature set at demo account, copy trading and mobile app adds a demo account, so a new trader can practise before risking money on live markets.
