Why choose ATFX

NOTE: This review is no longer being updated, as ATFX UK, more formally known as AT Global Markets (UK) Limited, has stopped serving retail clients.

ATFX is the forex/CFD brokerage arm of global financial group AT Group. It has low forex fees. Account opening is seamless and fast. From bank transfers to electronic wallets, you have many options for deposit and withdrawal, and they're all free of charge.

The product portfolio covers only forex, CFD and crypto. Email support is a bit slow, and ATFX's research materials don't include fundamental data.

BrokerChooser gave ATFX a 3.2/5 rating based on analyzing 600+ criteria and testing via opening a live account.

  • Low forex fees
  • Fast and easy account opening
  • Free deposit and withdrawal options
