traderpublic Ratings · Low-spread brokers
Brokers with low spreads
A spread figure means nothing without its qualifiers — which pair, which account type, and over what window it was averaged. A page that prints "EUR/USD 0.1" beside a broker's name and stops there is showing you a number nobody can verify.
Checked: the licence trail per published record, read from each regulator's own register on the date shown, plus the perk and desk-score rows from our research desk. The spread, commission and deposit values are written in per broker and labelled wherever they appear — placeholders for fields our research hub does not publish yet, not checked facts about those firms.
Broker records we publish

What a spread figure needs before it means anything
The licence rows are verified. The cost rows are written-in examples, and each names the qualifiers a real figure would have to carry.

Frequently asked questions
Why not just publish the spreads brokers advertise?
Because an advertised "from" spread is a best case, not an average, and it is usually quoted without the account type or the window. Republishing it would hand you a marketing figure with our name on it.
What would you need to publish a real spread?
The average, the pair, the account type, and the start and end of the measurement window — the field path beside each written-in row names exactly that.
