I trade with octa for quite some time and the main reason why I keep trading with them is because they never problematized any of my withdrawals. I started with skrill, and after exceedeig the deposited amount now i only withdraw with a bank wire transfer… evetyhing is standard,, time-wise…

Octa is one of the brokers that provide both nice trading environment and nice conditions with low fees. For instance, the spreads are hovering around 1 pips for EURUSD and other major pairs, whereas commission fees are zero. It means i have to pay only for spreads, but that’s tight. I’m trading through the mt4 as it’s a great platform to trade forex, and the executions are instant all the time. They don’t delay order at all.

Have heard a lot about this feature on different forums, got so interested that i signed up to check it out. ofc, i didn’t have any clue how exactly it works, so i contacted the support team, and they sent all THE detailed information. I didn’t expect them to be so fast in responding to my questions. Well done guys! Then I started using it in practice without any problems. Gotta admit, Octa came up with something great and I’ve not seen something like this in other places.

Octa buys with its transparency and affordability of forex trading. But still I can’t call their spreads the lowest I’ve seen. For example, attached picture from the Asian session I usually trade. 1 pip seems a good deal still expected it lower IDK Still a suitable choice for me. Good platform, fast withdrawal approvals by email, I like my experience here anyway Just opinion

Really one of the best brokers when it concerns costs of trading Basically, only spreads which are lower than market average My theme was swaps, precisely lack of swaps allowing me to trade in swing style for almost free paying small amount for spreads😉 But what about being versatile?! For swing traders is safe heaven but for scalpers… Major problem, no zero spreads accounts. I wanted to expand my strategies there!

Octa provided a good service overall. Smooth deposits and withdrawals, not much of execution problems. Transparency is all about them. Though, for me, it was a significant drawback that I couldn’t control costs of trading. I focus on scalp trades and need some sort of stability, which obviously can’t be achieved by variable spreads. I would be happy if they added zero spreads accounts with fixed commissions.

For some reason, my login info keeps resetting, this is making me upset. I'm not even connecting from other devices, its the same laptop. But about every month, it keeps suggesting I confirm all my info once again. Trading is good, the USD-based pairs, and pairs with NZD/AUD work well, I think Octa has bigger reach in SEA region, and I think the quotes are maybe coming from that region too. They're also good with crypto I've noticed. Just the website logs me out...

Signed up to try out Octa a while back. Setup didn’t take long, but figuring out the extras took some time. Still learning how everything works together. Had a few moments where the charts didn't update as expected but nothing crashed. Support got back, just not fast. Works, but not super smooth for beginners.

For those who don’t have any clue about their reuptation, let me tell you something. This broker is regulated by CySec, one of the most authoritative entities in the world. I trust them 100%!!! Most of all, i like their new AI chart feautre that saves me so much time and I don’t need to analyze anymore on my own. That tool is able to give you the most accurate patterns and support and resistance levels. It showed a triagnle and I made a nice profit.

Octa is actually a very good all round broker which can operate at the level of other top broker in the industry. Offereing 10s of tradeable instruments with very low spread and fast execution. Pretty impressive for me.

I depocited around 110$ in my local currency cause I was expecting the 10 to go to fees. SOmehow I got almost exactly 110, so I guess the conversion rate is pretty good here. Only that it took 3 HOURS to arrive, and even longer when i decided to withdraw the money And the bonus... oh it's not 100% like some other brokers, it's just 50 which is a real shame tbh.

Let’s begin with that octa is a good broker. I’ve been trading with them for 2 years, to prove this fact. But, the ideal one, no I think, is too early to call it with such statements. I liked the conditions- good numbers on leverage, spreads and zero in the graph in swaps graph. Still, something is missing. IDK, maybe some platforms, like tradingview or ctrader, or some pro perks, like super leverage.

Yes, it is a popular platform and it is a no brainer to offer it. However, what matters is that Octa offers MT5 and takes care of good execution and good speed of traders’ actions there. I can test how my EA run here even better than in m4.
