About EQ Markets
EQ Markets (also referred to as EQ Markets Global, domains eqmarketsglobal.com and eqmarkets.com) operates without any recognised financial regulation; it is not authorised by any regulator such as FCA, CySEC or ASIC. The broker’s previous membership with the Hong Kong‑based Financial Commission (Finacom) was permanently revoked: the Financial Commission expelled EQ Markets Ltd effective March 7, 2017, following failure to abide by dispute resolution rulings, and emergency compensation was provided to two affected clients under Finacom’s Compensation Fund (). Subsequent independent reviews affirm its unregulated status and express concerns about safety of client funds and transparency ().
Available trading conditions (from dated but referenced sources) include a minimum deposit reportedly set at USD 10 000 for a standard account, with fixed spreads (approximately 1.8 pips), leverage up to 1:400 (with VIP tier possibly up to 1:500), and access to MetaTrader 4 platform, operating in an STP model covering forex, commodities, indices and bonds (). Another overview (for “EQ Markets Global”) cites minimum deposit USD 500, leverage up to 1:500, and spreads around 1.6 pips, plus use of both MT4 and MT5 ().
