One of our highest rated brokers, Pepperstone is well-regulated and is globally renowned for its low trading costs and choice of trading platforms. Pepperstone keeps costs low with some of the tightest spreads weโ€™ve seen, averaging 1.00 pips (EUR/USD) on its Standard Account. For those who prefer classic ECN trading, the Razor Account has low commissions and spreads averaging just 0.17 pips on the EUR/USD. Neither account has a required minimum deposit.

More experienced traders will appreciate Pepperstoneโ€™s trading platform options, including a web-based platform, MT4, MT5, cTrader, and TradingView. All are available on desktop and mobile devices. Pepperstoneโ€™s education section is not the most extensive weโ€™ve seen, but it is competent and well-structured, making it a good place to start for beginner traders.
