International rating of brokers. Rating: brokers of the Moscow Exchange

Despite the elaboration of the scheme of functioning of stock exchanges, work on them still requires a significant share of the element of trust. The fact is that literally anyone can not take part in organized trade. In Russia (as in the rest of the world), access to stock exchanges is available exclusively to its professional participants, who, in turn, provide this access to private individuals or legal entities. In this case we are talking about broker companies and this article is devoted to identifying the TOP-10 best brokers in the Russian stock market.

But what about trust? And this is where the main difficulties start, because before getting to the trading floor, the funds of private investors first fall into the "purse" of the broker. Of course, since the latter is actually an aggregator large funds a large number of private investors, its activities become similar to banking. And this means that the brokerage company falls under the multi-stage control of both the Central Bank and the FSFRM (the successor to the Federal Securities Commission). Its liquidity (that is, the sufficiency of funds on all possible correspondent accounts) is monitored by special controller programs, the broker is regularly checked by inspections of the Ministry of Finance and the Central Bank (prevention of laundering and legalization), but the essence remains the same:

A broker is the same private office as any bank or even a simple small business LLC (just larger). His assets are no more insured than everyone else's. economic entities on the market. This means that a brokerage company, both theoretically and practically, is capable of declaring a default (in other words, going bankrupt)!

Therefore, the comparison of brokers stock market It makes sense for Russia to carry out in the first place in order to try to avoid losses associated with the possible loss of liquidity of such a company (at any level) with subsequent problems with the acceptance of orders ... And let the situation described in the anecdote-slogan pass you by: OtkazotaktseptBank: your problems are our concern; our problems are your concern!

Brokers of the Russian stock market - who should not be friends with?

A huge number of epithets can be cited in an attempt to describe all the qualitative and financial characteristics brokerage companies. You can even add specific turnover indicators here. But this is not the main thesis of this section. First of all, you need to separate the "flies from the cutlets" - to identify those organizations that are not actually full-fledged brokers in the stock market. Moreover, for greater clarity, it makes sense to give the most obvious parameter that allows an investor inexperienced in the market not to stumble.

In general, from what positions is it permissible to compare brokerage companies? After all, they all have one main functionality - to provide private investors with access directly to the bidding process. (For this they receive their commission, according to the tariff). But tell me which broker you yourself would prefer to work with:

with the one that is a banal "gasket", an intermediary who simply charges his own percentage;
or with a full-fledged financial company that has a reserve of its own liquidity and (in which case) will be able to support your deposits with its own funds, if with its professional activity suddenly there will be trouble.

The answer here is obvious - everyone would like to deal with a serious financial partner, a reliable broker in the stock market. And here there is one sign that allows you to distinguish obviously frivolous companies from the general array of specialized legal entities.

Oddly enough, but the watershed runs along the FOREX line. Recently, a huge number of brokers have appeared who build the main line of their earnings on providing access to the international market currency transactions. They are distinguished by the following characteristics:

Providing a monstrously high margin - 1:100.
The real contract is drawn up not between the company (Russian resident) and the client, but between the supposedly “parent” foreign (most often, offshore) company and Russian investor. This is explained, as a rule, by the fact that the parent company has a large set of its own assets and the client himself should be interested in signing an agreement with it.

In fact, this is done in order not to bear any responsibility for actions performed within the Russian jurisdiction: not only will you not expect any assets, but you will not be able to make any claims.

Often, as part of a set of tools and services for access to the complex financial platforms(exchanges) includes binary options. This is definitely a red light. If the emphasis on FOREX does not yet mean that you will lose your funds with a guarantee, then binary options are simply created to “shake off” their extra money from gullible investors (such a tool). Your final guaranteed win will be negative.

It's like playing slot machines, where the probability of winning is programmed to 0.

In other words, those who are professionally engaged in FOREX and binary options should be subtracted from the total number of Russian stock market brokers. It is far from a fact that the remaining financial intermediaries are conscientious and reliable companies, but at least, those who remained on the list clearly do not represent a “kitchen” (when access to the market is not actually provided, and the result of quotes is “pulled up” to target values similar to the original ones, depending on the set of stop orders placed) and are not professional scammers.

How to choose a broker in the stock market?

Surprisingly, the choice of a stock broker is best done in combination. Moreover, this complex should have the choice of a bank as the second component. And at the same time, you need to start from the last. Now almost all reputable banks have long become diversified financial companies. banking here, in many respects, only a "signboard".

Any reputable bank provides access to the stock market. And the larger its size, the wider the range of services provided and access to unusual tools.

One of the most solid, of course, is Sberbank. However, one cannot ignore the activities in this field of VTB Bank, Alfa-Bank, or KIT-Finance Bank.

It seems correct to rank brokerage companies using such a parameter as the number of clients on service (that is, the principle is exploited that many people cannot be wrong). So, TOP-10 stock market brokers in Russia at the beginning of 2018:

Table 1.

No. p / p	Name of the organization	Number of clients (thousand people)

	Financial group "BCS"
	Sberbank
	JSC "FINAM"
	FC Otkritie Bank Group
	JSC "Alfa-Bank"
	ATON LLC
	ALOR BROKER
	KIT finance

So, this table confirms the thesis that a brokerage company is a profile structure of the bank of the same name.

Frankly, it is not recommended to look for other brokerage houses, simply because reliance on colossal bank capital and liquidity provides the broker with the very reliability that underlies all the parameters for choosing the right company.

In general, the choice based a priori on an alloy with bank capital, and in addition, on the choice of hundreds of thousands of other independent clients, can be said to be quite objective.

Choosing a broker on the Russian stock market based on financial performance

In addition to relying on the opinions of many thousands of others who have accounts in the companies in question, it seems reasonable to analyze brokers for their financial stability. And it is proposed to take as a basis the volume of turnover, as the most objective indicator characterizing the complex liquidity of the business of a financial company.

Table 2. (data as of the beginning of 2018)

No. p / p	Name of the organization	Turnover in billion rubles
	Group "BK REGION"
	FC Otkritie Bank Group
	UNIVER Capital
	Financial group "BCS"
	Renaissance Broker
	Promsvyazbank

	Sberbank
	ALOR BROKER
	Investment company VELES Capital

In essence, the volume of turnover is a parameter that speaks much more about the reliability of the company than the number of (grateful) clients, because a satisfied client always votes in rubles and will never change a broker if he likes everything in his work (even more increasing, while , its capitalization).

However, the total turnover is a very vague indicator. Of course, it is more than suitable for assessing the reliability of a company, but from the point of view of assessing professionalism in the market and satisfying the most pressing needs of customers, specificity is required here.

We live in Russia and for domestic investors, the most important indicator is how the broker is represented on domestic sites. In particular, on the Moscow Exchange (according to MICEX). Here is a list of brokerage companies sorted by their trading volumes on the Moscow Exchange (which is one of the most significant performance criteria operating activities on the Russian stock market).

Table 3

No. p / p	Name of the organization	Turnover on the Moscow Exchange in billion rubles

	FC Otkritie Bank Group

	ZERICH Broker
	Investment group ATON

Actually, the activity of a Russian broker can be assessed precisely by the efficiency of the activity on the Moscow Exchange, because this organized market was formed by the merger of the RTS and the MICEX, the two main trading floors in Russia.

Rating of stock market brokers: how to make a choice?

To draw the resulting conclusion (taking into account all the above analysis), you should first understand what exactly does a brokerage company do? The answer - providing access to an organized market - is too general. It would be more reasonable to parse specifically:

The broker company switches all customer requests and broadcasts them directly to the site. Of course, this happens by synchronizing the software and setting up profile software clients for users, or via an online connection.
The broker provides various financial services of a credit nature. In particular, interested clients are provided financial leverage(outside the scope of futures trading) when making transactions on the bond market (for example). Lending from a broker differs from banking, first of all, by the speed of the decision made: there is no credit committee (that is, it exists, but the decision is made in a framework, as the client satisfies the internal financial standards broker).
The broker provides clients with analytical materials, on the basis of which investors make decisions on transactions. And that broker is more popular, whose recommendations are more likely to hit the target.

How to combine the indicated functional features of brokerage companies with the above analysis? How to understand which companies from the TOPs presented above are better, for example, in lending to their investor clients? Or which of them has a more efficient analytical unit?

What can the turnover rating tell us (Table 2)? About how satisfied the clients of these brokers are with the services provided. If investors lose their money, then the turnover of the broker will fall. TOPs have no problems with this, which means that users, through the mediation of these brokerage companies, mostly earn. And this means:

availability of effective analytics;
intensive lending activity.

What do the ratings in Table 1 (by number of clients) say? This is not even a rating of companies, but a rating of satisfied customers. Investors do not leave, which means that brokerage companies effectively carry out their very first function - providing access to an organized market (orders are always executed, there are no delays or breaks).

We can confidently say that since customers are only being added, it means that they are mostly earning. That is, all together:

these companies demonstrate reliability in the technical performance of their primary duty;
companies (most likely) provide correct analytics;
it's obvious that customers like it credit policy broker data.

And finally, table 3. She testifies to financial efficiency activities of a broker on Russian stock exchanges. A large turnover indicates that clients tend to work on the Moscow Exchange with this particular broker. This may be due to a number of factors:

more favorable credit policy (with a broker) in this segment of the organized market;
some exclusive features that the broker can broadcast to its clients (for example, an administrative resource).

Summary

Summarizing the above analysis, it is possible to make one TOP-3 of the best brokerage companies out of the three TOP-10 based on objective characteristics:

Table 4

No. p / p	Broker name	Place in the table. one	Place in the table. 2	Place in the table. 3
	Financial group "BCS"
	FC Otkritie Bank Group
	Sberbank

In general, of course, choose the best broker thus, it is like trying to prove that the crocodile is longer than the green one (because it is long all the way, and the green is only on top). Probably the best choice brokerage company focus on the stability and liquidity of the associated bank; then you should pay attention to the technical side of working with this broker (so that the orders do not freeze corny); and in the end, you should pay attention to lending and analytics (because lending is not a defining feature, because you can, in which case, switch to futures, and analytics is always available from competitive sources).

And do not forget that after you start working with a broker, all sorts of subtleties will inevitably appear that distinguish it from the list of other companies (at least on the basis of the exclusivity of these nuances). And most likely, the choice to move or stay will be made on the basis of these nuances. Little things decide everything!

Who are brokers? We see them in Hollywood films, ambitious and daring, easily concluding profitable deals and getting rich before our eyes. But we meet brokers not only in the movies. This is a very real profession, which consists in mediation between seller and buyer. And since we are interested in transactions on the exchanges, then we will talk about stock brokers.

stock broker working in the stock market on behalf of and at the expense of private clients and companies. He helps them buy profitably and then even more profitable to resell assets and make money on the difference. Of course, not for free: brokers work for a commission.

If you are a novice investor and decide to open your first account on the exchange, for a successful start you need to find stable and reliable investment broker.

You need a partner who will help you navigate the flow of information, understand how the market works and what points to pay special attention to.

There are a lot of those who provide brokerage services on the market now. But the choice of honest brokers, focused not on their own benefit, but on the profit of customers, not so wide. And since the geographical factor narrows this choice even more, the ability to open an account online is key for residents of small remote cities.

Which broker is the best - it's impossible to say for sure. The top 10 best brokers for trading on the Moscow Stock Exchange (MICEX) are compiled based on many criteria. So, there is an independent rating of brokers by the number of clients. As of January 2018, the first place on the list was taken by the VTB broker, which had 275 thousand clients.

It is necessary to choose an intermediary for the purchase of shares and other exchange-traded assets based on individual requirements.

Which broker to choose and how to find Better conditions of the existing this moment on the market, we will tell in our review and dwell in detail on the rating of the most reliable intermediaries for profitable exchange transactions.

You have decided to open your first account on the stock exchange and now you are faced with the task of choosing the right broker. Which intermediary you choose, so your investment ship will sail. Therefore, before investing money, it is worth paying due attention to the issue. How to find a good broker?

There are several basic criteria that a good broker should have. Reliability financial organization, which provides brokerage services, is primarily based on high trading volumes, the number of clients and the period of existence in the stock market. These are basic, but the most important parameters that appear in all manuals “ How to find a good stock market broker”.

However, in addition to these basic requirements, there are more subjective parameters. So, for one user it is important to get access to foreign stocks and bonds, while the second focuses on commissions and tariffs.

Which broker is best for you depends on your experience with exchange-traded assets and the goals you are pursuing.

There are 3 types of market participants: beginners, active traders and investors.

For BEGINNERS who have not yet formed their own strategy of behavior, come to the fore qualification and professionalism of the staff able to provide competent and fast assistance at the stage of getting to know the market.
For ACTIVE TRADERS, which include medium-term and short-term traders, the main criterion for choosing the best broker is low active commission, that is, the commission that is taken from the turnover on transactions, low cost of margin lending, as well as various tools focused on speculative work.
For INVESTORS priority indicators are no fixed fees, access to the maximum number stock exchanges and financial instruments, as well as the possibility operational transfers.

So, when choosing a broker in 2019, we pay attention to the main 9 criteria:

Availability current license to carry out brokerage and dealer activities in the stock market. The absence of a license indicates that the broker operates outside the legal field;
Leading position on the market. A reliable broker is distinguished by the scale of its activities. The more clients a broker has, the more trading volumes on the exchange pass through it, thus allowing it to have the status of a large and strong market participant. In addition to large trading volumes, it is right to pay attention to the period of work of the broker company and the unsullied history and reputation.
Minimum starting amount especially important for beginners operating on large sums. Some brokers specifically create high entry thresholds to the market in order to work only with large clients. And novice investors are interested in the opportunity to open an account with a small amount of money and pay minimum commission for account maintenance;
Opening an account online is a critical parameter for users from remote regions, for whom the possibilities of cooperation with reliable brokers are geographically limited.
Qualified staff and operational support especially significant for novice investors in the early stages of market development. In the course of work, technical issues may arise that require competent assistance and a quick solution.
Availability of the Quik program and mobile application . Quik is a universal program for working with a broker, which has a wide range of options and is widely used in Russia and the CIS countries. Having studied it, the user will be able to work with any broker, and having decided to change the intermediary, start cooperation without the need to study specialized program. The presence of a mobile application for a broker expands the possibilities of clients and allows you to manage your accounts directly from your smartphone.
Access to foreign shares and Eurobonds, which is now gaining more and more popularity, allows you to enter promising foreign markets without additional costs and the absence of high starting thresholds.
As we have already noted, brokers work for Commission remuneration and have their own tariff policy, on the basis of which they charge a certain fee for their services. When choosing a broker, you should consider not only overall size commissions (broker + depository commission), but also pay attention to threshold commissions and monthly account maintenance fees, which may not be noticeable for an investor with millions of capitals, but are essential for a user with a small investment account.
Such a criterion as cost of margin lending, is more interesting for experienced market participants who actively use the brokerage leverage during the trading process, thus having access to larger amounts than on their account. But since transactions with borrowed funds are highly risky, novice investors should treat them with great caution.

TOP 10 reliable brokers

Broker rating is a visual and convenient tool necessary for choosing a reliable exchange platform. TOP best brokers formed on the basis integrated assessment service operation: year of foundation, license, terms of cooperation, user rating, reliability, reviews, etc. Comparison of brokers is necessary to objectively reflect their activities and provide users with the opportunity to choose the best of them.

Hello! In this article we will talk about forex brokers.

Today you will learn:

Why is it important to choose a good broker;
On what to base your choice;
Top 7 best brokers.

Why is it important to choose a good broker?

It would seem that everything is simple: with a good broker, the conditions for playing are better, the commissions are lower, and in general the game is more pleasant. Yes, that's right, but more importantly, a good broker will allow you to withdraw the money you earn and will not put spokes in the wheels like limiting the withdrawal of money, limiting the use of leverage and other conditions that reduce your earnings.
Forex brokers can be compared to casinos. Playing through forex brokers online, you do not enter the real market. All transactions take place within the system. And this means that the main struggle is between the player and the institution. Therefore, each institution is interested in its winnings.

And now about why the institution will always win, regardless of whether you specifically play with profit or not.

There are 2 probabilities to play on the stock exchange: you will make a profit, you will incur a loss. Over a long distance, for the average player, all of these decisions will be in the proportion of approximately 50/50.

And it would seem that every average player should go to zero. But it's not. There is one more "but" - the commission for the transaction. It is she who brings the same income that brokers live on.

This is a somewhat simplified scheme, but it will allow you to understand why competent brokers will still be calm about their wallet. But, nevertheless, there are dishonest companies that, due to fraudulent schemes, remove players who are profitable, putting a spoke in their wheels.

And some brokers, despite the fact that the authorities of European countries are already actively fighting this, prefer to carry out the procedure and keep all the money for themselves.

Doyle Brunson - one of the most famous poker players said an interesting phrase:

In my time it was hard not to win - almost anyone could do it. It was hard to walk away with my winnings, so I always took a gun with me.

We don’t have any pistol, especially since we play on the Internet, but the main point is clear: it doesn’t matter what you win. You won only when you took your winnings for yourself.

Alpari

A very popular platform both in Russia and in the world.

Pros.

The advantage will be the minimum spread, many ways to deposit and withdraw, as well as an additional way to earn in the form and binary options. On Alpari, everyone can find a trade to their liking.

Minuses.

But despite all its advantages, Alpari's activities raise some doubts. The broker is registered in offshore zone, and is still trying to obtain a license from the central bank to conduct operations on the territory of the Russian Federation.

Despite this, the company remains as reliable as before, which is only worth advertising on television, on one of the most expensive channels. But to figure out what Alpari really is is very difficult.

Roboforex

A New Zealand company that has been conquering European and Russian tops since the launch of its program.

Pros.

The most important thing about RoboForex is its educational materials and constant video conferences that help you learn how to trade in a short time. The spread starts from 0 pips, which is good news. A huge selection of trading accounts makes the site even more attractive for both beginners and professionals.

Big choice trading platforms, as well as analysis tools make trading more and more convenient. And a loyalty program in the form of bonuses for replenishment up to 50% can accelerate a trading account to high turnover, with a minimum investment.

The minimum deposit amount is $1.

insta-forex

A true leader in the Asian market. This is a company that puts the development of culture and helping newcomers in the first place.

Pros.

A large range of trading leverage allows both conservative traders (1:1 - the minimum value) and risk lovers to trade - a maximum of 1:1000. Catching a trend once, you can earn a huge amount of money by spending a minimum.

A large selection of currency instruments for analysis, coupled with a bonus system, allows you to receive additional funds through successful play in the currency market. A plus, additional yield ensures the accrual of interest on the balance on the trading account.

Minuses.

Of the minuses, one can single out the complexity and intricacy of the site. It will be very difficult for a beginner to understand what and where is on the portal.

Alpha Forex

Subsidiary of Alfa-Bank.

Pros.

Alfa Forex still focuses on beginners, creating everything for them profitable terms. There is no minimum entry threshold, and the parent bank affects the services provided by the broker only for the better.

Forex club

Pros.

One of the oldest companies operating in the Russian Federation. Obtained an official license Central Bank to carry out their operations in Russia. Reliability is the best word for this broker.

But besides reliability, there is nothing special to note.

Average starting capital - from 50 US dollars.

Rating Conclusion

It is better to check several times and spend several days choosing a reliable company than to lose all your money not because of your own mistakes, but because of fraud.

One important point! brokers with a simple customer identification (verification) system deserve much less trust than their more corrosive counterparts. Since in Russia and most countries of the world there are laws that counteract the legalization of proceeds from crime, all companies working with finance are required to control their clients so that they cannot launder their money in this way.

Therefore, the better, more detailed and to some extent more annoying the verification system, the more knowledge will be gained about you, and the better company performs its duties to the state.

How to evaluate a broker

Now let's talk about what you need to look at first when choosing a broker for long-term cooperation:

1. Minimum deposit amount.

The first thing to pay attention to is minimum size deposit. It can be different, from 10 to 1,000,000 dollars.

Depending on this parameter, you can identify the target audience of this broker: a small amount - designed for beginners and inexperienced players, who in most cases lose their deposit; average amount - designed for richer players, or for more experienced ones; and a large amount shows the professionalism of the broker and his willingness to bring transactions to the real market.

Brokers for beginners are more characterized by the presence of a large number of educational materials, demo accounts and other "charms" that lure newbies into their network.

They are good first of all because they give you a chance to try your hand at such an unpredictable forex market with minimum investment. Perfect for those who are ready to part with a small amount and gain invaluable experience.

Medium Brokers are already more interesting for those who have gained at least a little experience. Professional traders prefer to overclock their trading accounts from 3-5 thousand dollars, and this is the minimum deposit that a medium-sized company should have.

Traders are less likely to enter the real market with their transactions, but at the same time, such brokers prefer to play a more honest game, because their margin calmly covers losses and brings the broker into a big plus.

Brokers with a large minimum deposit- companies that are focused on professionals. They allow them to enter the real market and live on% from transactions. They have the most advanced trading terminals, the best advisors and an excellent support service that will explain and prompt absolutely all the moments, up to the choice of a strategy.

But there is a significant disadvantage - a large ($10,000+) down payment and expensive trading software. Suitable only for those who have already managed to make a profit on the forex market and are engaged in it on a regular professional basis.

Summarizing the above: if you are a beginner, feel free to choose a broker with minimum deposit, briefly look at the training material, make several transactions, click on different keys of the trading terminal - the output will be minimal, as well as the losses, but the experience will increase significantly.

2. Spread value.

As part of the forex game, the spread will be an additional obstacle to making more profits.

Spread - the difference between the purchase price and the sale price for a specific period of time. Consequently, we have: the purchase price of a dollar for rubles is 58.72, the selling price of a dollar for rubles is 59.05.

59.05 - 58.72 = 0.35 kopecks - this is the spread value.

For beginners, the spread should be as small as possible. Pay attention to this when you first meet a broker, because a large spread can eat up almost all earnings.

3. The amount of commission.

Despite the fact that most brokers do not take a commission and make a profit according to the scheme described in the first part of the article, some companies still prefer fixed income from every transaction.

At the same time, it is worth remembering that for the transition to the next day when trading with leverage, each operator will take a commission, as for the loan provided. This is quite logical, because you use borrowed funds for more than 1 trading day.

The amount of commission is one of the most important parameters, which is still worth paying attention to. Too little commission - a reason for suspicion, too much - a blow to the pocket. Try to choose the average for the market.

4. Trade restrictions.

Some brokers put some restrictions on trading for successful or just profitable traders. They can be expressed in a decrease in the number of transactions, the size of transactions and various smaller conditions.

If the broker sets limits for you after your successful game, this is the best signal to withdraw money as soon as possible and look for a new partner to earn money.

5. The procedure for depositing and withdrawing funds.

Find out how you can deposit and withdraw money from the system in advance. If you are provided with a wide range of ways to deposit and withdraw funds, you should not assume that this is the best broker. This is often what scammers do.

After all, according to federal law"On counteracting the legalization of proceeds from crime and the financing of terrorism" the broker has the right to transfer funds only in the same way that the client entered them.

Therefore, if the broker violates the direct Russian legislation, otherwise he may be dishonest. Of course, this may cause some inconvenience, but the price for reliability is low.

6. Availability of licenses.

Perhaps one of the most interesting and important points. On the one hand, licenses are a defining document that shows the trust of the state (or states) in this company. But on the other hand, most fly-by-night companies easily forge documents.

Which licenses exactly indicate the reliability of a broker: permission to conduct operations on the territory of the Russian Federation, issued by our Central Bank, is one of the main documents.

The Central Bank is an independent and quality-oriented structure that will release only proven companies to our market. And also all European licenses and permits will do.

In the EU countries, the activities of forex brokers are monitored very closely, and if a broker that positions itself as a European does not have a license to enter Europe, it is worth considering why.

7. History of the company.

The most controversial point of all. On the one hand, the history of the company can give a lot of its potential client. Of the important points will be: how many years on the market, what are the goals, objectives, scope of activities, coverage of the territory, the number of positive and negative reviews, and many other information that will directly or indirectly make it clear whether the company is reliable, or another scam company.

But the network is now a real battlefield among competitors. It costs nothing to order an angry article and another stuffing on the topic of fraud by one of the top brokers. On the other hand, start-up companies often invent legends for themselves, non-existent activities, order testimonials about themselves, and much more.

To deal with all the information, you will have to tinker a lot and be able to distinguish custom reviews from real ones.

But if you still learn and spend enough time, with the help of reliable information about the history of the broker, you can get all the information about its reliability.

Russian companies against foreign

Now let's compare Russian forex brokers and foreign ones. We will understand which companies are better for the Russian user - domestic or European brokers.

Comparative characteristics	Russian brokers	Foreign brokers
Reliability	Relatively small. On the Russian market there is still no proper control of the forex market	Reinforced concrete reliability It is extremely difficult to go through the licensing procedure in Europe or America
Entry threshold	Minimal Domestic companies prefer to work with beginners and small/medium deposits	Big enough. Foreign brokers prefer wealthier and professional traders
Language	In most cases, English, on some sites there is a switch to Russian	Mainly Russian used
Trading terminals	Due to the complexity of the language, they are quite difficult to learn and are designed for more advanced users.	Designed for beginners, in Russian, but inferior in terms of analysis tools to foreign ones
Withdrawal methods	Foreign banks and payment systems	domestic banks and payment systems, direct transfers to cards

We can also refer American brokers to foreign ones. They are also distinguished by increased reliability, and due to the fact that America is a global financial center, they also have requirements for their clients.

Play on Russian brokers it will be much easier for a beginner. You do not need special skills, knowledge in the operation of trading terminals. You can start playing and get comfortable in just 2-3 days. And in a week, get your first profit on the card.

But if you want 100% reliability and stability, as well as trading with the best and advanced terminals, then your choice should go towards foreign brokers.

Cent and dollar brokers

A few words about cent and dollar brokers. It is impossible not to mention cent brokers as an ideal way to start the forex game. Everything lies not only in the minimum entry value - from a few cents to 10-50 dollars. Cent brokers allow you to trade with much less risk and loss. Let's see how cent brokers achieve this.

If the standard change of one point at a dollar broker with a lot of 0.1 is 1 dollar, then on a cent the change of the 1st point will be equal to 1 cent. Simply put, changing one point will hit the player's pocket 100 times less than when playing for dollars.

But many people have a quite reasonable question: why do we need cent brokers if there are demo accounts and other training manuals. Let's be honest - a demo account with most brokers is only suitable for getting acquainted with the basic functionality of the trading terminal.

Playing for candy wrappers is not connected with reality, it does not allow you to test strategies in real time with network delay, large spreads and other "joys" of online trading.

That is why, in order to see the real behavior of your strategy on real market, it is enough to use a cent broker, which will reduce financial losses to a minimum. The cost of such a basic experience will be relatively small 10-20 dollars for a month and a half of use and knowledge of the intricacies of Forex trading.

Only after the beginner receives the first money on a cent broker, he should switch to the dollar game with high risks, not forgetting that now he will have to risk much larger amounts when the price moves by 1 pip.

Diversification of risks when working with brokers

Everyone has heard about asset diversification and quite often. But in the usual sense, such a division means the following:

We distribute funds among several assets in order to reduce the risks of failure and compensate for the drawdown of one asset by the rise of another.

But the situation with brokers is somewhat different. By diversifying funds, we protect ourselves primarily from fraudulent activities, as well as the bankruptcy of the company.

Redistributing funds between several brokers is a great way:

Reduce risks when working with operations;
Reduce turnover on accounts;
Risk much smaller amounts (after all, operations for 1-2% per account);
Maintain a more accurate statistical picture.

Many forex brokers have already acquired in the terminals not only currency, but securities and raw materials. And therefore, one company can trade in currency, another in raw materials, and in a third one to deal with securities.

Yes, this will require more care - after all, you will have to analyze 9-12 types of charts at once, but once you get used to it, you will be able to increase the scale of your trading in breadth.

As for statistics, it's even easier here. You will be able to work with each broker and see if yours is better there is a trade shares with one partner because of the low spread, and with the other because of the greater leverage, raw materials bring more profit, and in the third, currency prices are updated a little more often, so loose lows are reached on time.

Distributing funds between brokers is the key to successful online trading, especially in this time of constant scandals and scams of unreliable companies.

Conclusion

Summarizing all of the above, several conclusions can be drawn:

When working with a broker, the most important thing is to get your earned money, and only then you should look at additional parameters like minimum amount, spread size, number of currencies, technical support and so on.
It is more reliable to work with foreign brokers, but it is more convenient with Russian ones. Therefore, use the Central Bank website (cbr.ru or banki.ru) and find out which brokers have already received an official license from the Central Bank.
You should diversify not only funds for various assets, but also for different brokers. This will remove once again from scam and dishonest play.

In order to, you need to calculate all the details, because the most important thing is reliability, and only competent planning can save you from unnecessary losses. Therefore, you should not chase high profits - it is enough to receive a yield of 5%, but steadily.
