About BrokerDeck

BrokerDeck is a small, independent review site for forex brokers, prop firms, and trading bonuses. It is written by an active multi-broker trader, not by a marketing agency.

Why we exist

Most broker "review" sites are ranking pages with affiliate links at the top. The broker that pays the most sits at number one, and the ratings are written by people who have never placed a real trade. We started BrokerDeck because we wanted a place that reads like a trader talking to another trader: what actually matters, what the marketing copy hides, and where the real risk sits.

We focus on the things an active trader cares about — raw spreads versus advertised spreads, commission per lot, swap-free options, EA and algorithmic friendliness, and how a prop firm actually treats you at payout time.

Why we're independent

  • No pay-for-play. Brokers and prop firms cannot buy a rating, a position, or a "Best for" slot. Rankings are decided by our own criteria, not by whoever pays the most.
  • We test with real accounts. Where we can, we open live accounts and verify spreads, slippage, and withdrawal behaviour ourselves. Data that we cannot verify is marked as reported.
  • We disclose how we make money. Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you open an account through one, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. That never changes a rating, and we say so in every relevant review.
  • We correct mistakes. Broker terms change constantly. If a number is wrong, tell us and we will fix it.

What you'll find here

  • Broker reviews focused on real execution, not the sales page.
  • Prop firm comparisons that spell out the rules before you pay for a challenge.
  • Bonus breakdowns with the fine print, not just the headline number.
  • A plain-language disclaimer of what we are, and what we are not.

What we are not

We are not a licensed financial adviser, and we do not give investment advice. Nothing on this site is a recommendation to buy or sell any financial instrument. Trading foreign exchange on margin carries a high level of risk and can result in losses greater than your deposit. If you need advice, speak to a licensed professional in your country.
