Having traded for years, I approach cost considerations with a critical eye, especially for indices like the US100. My experience with FX Broadnet is primarily focused on their forex offerings, as their main platform is tailored deeply toward foreign exchange—specifically over-the-counter FX and Japan's Click 365, with an emphasis on pairs like USD/JPY. According to all the research I could gather, FX Broadnet’s fee structure is most transparent for major FX pairs, where the published spread for USD/JPY is as low as 0.2 sen. However, when it comes to index products like the US100, I could not find explicit cost details—no public mention of spreads, commissions, or overnight financing rates for such CFDs. This lack of clear, accessible information on index trading costs leads me to exercise heightened caution. In my opinion, unless the broker explicitly discloses the spread, commission, and any related swap charges on indices, it's difficult to properly evaluate your trading expenses and risk ahead of time. As a risk-averse trader who prioritizes transparency and planning, I personally would require full cost disclosure before executing any trades in US100 or other indices with FX Broadnet. For now, based on what’s verifiably published, I would only consider them for forex, where the costs and structure are clearly documented and regulated by Japan’s FSA.
