JustMarkets Review 2026: Costs, Safety, Platforms and Who It Suits

What materially distinguishes it?

Tested directly

• We could not complete registration because the liveness check stalled. The account was then shown as blocked, despite no live trade.
• We deposited by card.
• One withdrawal requested in the morning arrived very quickly. On other occasions, withdrawals were paused until trading details were requested; they were released after we provided the information.
• The mobile app felt very slow in our test.
• We used the support hub chat, where we could send screenshots, and were usually attended to quickly.

Verified from primary sources

The legal-entity table below includes regulator and licence details for JustMarkets Ltd under CySEC and Just Global Markets (Pty) Ltd under the FSCA, with links to the relevant registers. The remaining account, product, fee and protection terms in this review are presented as broker terms, not as results independently confirmed through live trading.

Not independently verified

We did not independently measure typical execution speed, slippage rates, rejection rates or liquidity-provider arrangements. The account application did not progress to a live trade, so our direct observations do not establish how trading conditions perform across accounts, instruments or market conditions.

Test environment

Account type: Unverified application; no deposit/live trade
Testing period: 2026; 18 Jan 2026

Account Pricing

All account spreads are floating. The account minimums are entry requirements, not a guarantee that a quoted minimum spread will be available at all times. The broker’s average-spread figures include 0.9 pips for EUR/USD, 1.3 pips for GBP/USD, 2.4 points for gold (XAU/USD) and 0.7 points for the S&P 500 CFD; these are averages, not the minimums in the account table.

Standard and Pro use spread-only pricing, with no trading commission. Raw Spread combines spreads from 0.0 pips with a commission that is typically around $3–$4 per side per standard lot. The total cost therefore depends on the instrument, account, position size and whether the spread is close to its minimum when you trade. JustMarkets’ maximum leverage and product terms can also vary by jurisdiction and legal entity.

What the Headline Number Doesn't Tell You

Raw spreads from 0.0 pips

Advertised spread: From 0.0 pips on Raw Spread.

What that doesn't tell you:
The 0.0-pip figure is a minimum. Raw Spread also typically charges around $3–$4 per side per standard lot, so compare commission and spread together.

Non-Trading Costs

Eligible positions held past the daily rollover can incur or receive overnight financing. The amount depends on the instrument, position size, direction, rates and number of nights held. Swap-free arrangements are available, but instrument-specific administrative or storage fees may apply; the fee schedule should be checked for the relevant account and instrument.

Cost most worth watching

For frequent traders, compare the Raw Spread commission with the floating spreads on Standard or Pro. For anyone who may leave an account unused, note the $5 monthly inactivity charge after five months under the stated conditions. Overnight financing can also affect the cost of positions held past rollover.

Legal Entity Map

Why the entity matters

The entity named in your client agreement determines which regulatory framework and protections apply. JustMarkets identifies regulatory jurisdictions in Seychelles, Cyprus, South Africa, Mauritius and the British Virgin Islands, but the two entity-register entries above illustrate why a brand-wide leverage or protection statement is not enough. Eligible retail clients under the Cyprus entity may be covered by the Investor Compensation Fund, typically up to €20,000; offshore entities do not offer the same scheme.

JustMarkets lists licence references SD088, 401/21, 51114, GB22200881 and SIBA/L/24/1177. The applicable entity and licence should be checked against the account contract, rather than assumed from the brand name.

Client Protection

JustMarkets says it segregates client funds from company operational capital and provides negative balance protection for retail clients. The broker says eligible retail accounts are reset to zero if extreme market volatility takes the balance below zero. These protections do not remove market risk, counterparty risk or the possibility of losing the funds deposited. Compensation eligibility is entity-specific and should not be assumed for offshore accounts.

Forex, indices, commodities and crypto exposure is through leveraged derivatives. Stock exposure is mainly through CFDs: traders do not own the underlying shares or receive voting rights, and short positions and overnight financing can apply. Crypto exposure is generally through leveraged derivatives rather than ownership of coins in a wallet. Product availability can depend on the legal entity and jurisdiction.

Where the range is strongest

The stated instrument counts are largest in stocks, with 165 share CFDs, and forex, with 70 pairs. The breadth is therefore primarily derivative exposure rather than direct ownership of shares or crypto assets.

Where it is limited

Bonds are not offered, and no standard retail options product is identified. ETF availability and leverage depend on the entity and platform.

Available Platforms

Core Experience

MT4 and MT5 cover desktop, browser and mobile access, with desktop terminals serving as the main environment for automated strategies. MT5 supports strategy testing and optimization through its Strategy Tester; both MetaTrader platforms support Expert Advisors written in their respective languages.

Charting

MetaTrader 5 includes 21 timeframes, market depth and six pending-order types. The WebTerminal is suited to browser-based manual trading and monitoring rather than running automated strategies.

Advanced Features

JustMarkets supports copy trading through a dedicated service and app. Investors can copy strategies across forex, indices, commodities, stocks and cryptocurrency; proportional copying options and a Risk Score are among the stated tools. Copy trading is not available in all jurisdictions, including the UK. MT4 and MT5 automated strategies can also be run using third-party VPS hosting; JustMarkets does not provide an in-house VPS.

Mobile Experience

The JustMarkets Trading App is available on iOS and Android for manual trading, position monitoring, alerts and account management. MT4 and MT5 also have mobile versions, while the full Expert Advisor and custom-code workflows remain desktop/VPS-centric.

Main Platform Trade-Off

Best aspect: The choice of MetaTrader desktop, browser and mobile access, with desktop Expert Advisor support for traders who automate.

Main friction point: Browser and mobile clients do not provide the full desktop automation environment.

Account Opening

JustMarkets requires KYC verification to unlock full account functionality, including deposits, uninterrupted trading and withdrawals. The broker asks for personal details, a valid photo ID and proof of residence. A demo account is available.

JustMarkets does not accept clients from Afghanistan, Australia, Austria, Belarus, Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, Croatia, Cuba, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Haiti, Hungary, Iceland, India, Iran, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Latvia, Libya, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Myanmar, Netherlands, Nicaragua, North Korea, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Somalia, Spain, Sudan, Sweden, Syria, United Kingdom, United States, Venezuela or Yemen.

Deposits and Withdrawals

Deposit and withdrawal methods include Mastercard, Visa, wire transfer, Airtm, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Ripple, Skrill, Tether, USD Coin, Bitcoin Cash, Dogecoin, Neteller, Sticpay and Tron. The methods available to an individual client can depend on region. JustMarkets lists USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, MYR, IDR, THB, VND, KWD, CNY, ZAR, AED, NGN and USC as base account currencies.

The minimum deposit is $10 for Standard and Standard Cent accounts, and $200 for Pro and Raw Spread. No minimum withdrawal amount is stated here. JustMarkets says it charges no internal deposit or withdrawal fee, but banks, e-wallets, payment processors and blockchain networks may charge their own fees. Broker processing time is not the same as payment-provider or blockchain settlement time.

JustMarkets is classified as an STP/ECN broker and says all accounts use market execution, filling orders at the best available price. This does not guarantee a particular fill: slippage is possible, and spreads may widen during volatility, including major news releases.

Scalping, hedging, news trading and algorithmic trading are allowed according to the broker’s stated conditions. Hedging is supported on MT4 and MT5. MetaTrader Expert Advisors and scripts can be used for automated strategies, and third-party VPS hosting is supported.

The broker lists a 40% margin-call level and a 20% stop-out margin level. Maximum leverage depends on client jurisdiction, account and instrument. JustMarkets advertises up to 1:3000 for international clients on major forex pairs and metals; retail leverage under CySEC or European rules is capped at 1:30. The instrument-level retail maximums listed here are 1:30 for forex, 1:20 for indices and commodities, 1:5 for stocks and 1:2 for crypto.

During news releases, floating spreads can widen and slippage can occur. The broker’s permission to trade during such events does not remove these execution risks.

Research and Tools

JustMarkets provides market analysis and forecasts, an economic calendar, price charts, a currency converter and market news. These tools can support routine market monitoring alongside a trader’s own analysis.

Education

Educational resources include articles and guides, videos and tutorials, a glossary and platform guides. This mix can help newer users with terminology and platform basics.

Customer Services

Other support channels include a Help Center, Support Hub, Telegram, Instagram, iMessage, Messenger and WhatsApp. Stated average response times are one minute for live chat, five minutes for WhatsApp and Telegram, 15 minutes for iMessage and Instagram, one to three minutes for phone and within 24 hours for email. Some users report unclear communication during support cases and slow resolution of technical issues; the recurring concern is follow-up and final resolution rather than initial response speed.

Check these three things first

1. Your legal entity: Confirm the contracting entity, regulator and licence in your account documents. Cyprus/EEA and South African entities operate under different frameworks; Cyprus compensation eligibility is not a brand-wide protection.
2. Your likely trading cost: Compare floating spreads with Raw Spread commission, and factor in overnight financing and any applicable inactivity charge.
3. Your product/account requirements: Match the minimum deposit and instrument leverage to your needs, and confirm that your preferred products and payment methods are available in your jurisdiction.

Bottom line

JustMarkets is primarily suited to traders seeking low entry deposits, MetaTrader and a choice of spread-only or commission-based accounts. Entity-specific protections and leverage limits are the main details to establish before funding an account.
