Based on my thorough research into Point72, I have to emphasize that, as of now, there is no clear or official information available regarding the typical spread for the EUR/USD pair on a standard retail trading account with this broker. Point72 is primarily a global investment firm with an emphasis on discretionary long/short equity, global macro, systematic, and venture capital strategies. According to regulatory disclosures, the firm is licensed in Hong Kong and generally only serves professional investors who meet strict financial criteria, not standard retail forex traders who require transparent pricing such as spreads. From my professional experience, when a broker does not make core trading conditions—like spreads for major forex pairs—publicly available, it indicates that direct forex trading might not be part of its primary offerings to individuals. Moreover, absence of fee information and standard account details, as shown in Point72’s disclosures, is a significant consideration for anyone concerned with transparency and risk. For me, this lack of clarity would be a red flag if I were seeking a typical brokerage for spot forex trading rather than an institutional or managed investment service. Given the specialized focus and the unavailability of retail trading condition disclosures, I cannot recommend Point72 as a standard forex broker for those seeking to trade major currency pairs like EUR/USD on a conventional account.
