Based on my research and direct experience evaluating brokers, I can share that the minimum exchange amount to start using KnightsbridgeFX is typically $2,000 CAD per transaction. This requirement strikes me as relatively high when compared to most retail forex brokers, which often allow much smaller initial deposits. The rationale behind such a minimum, in my view, is closely tied to KnightsbridgeFX's business model: they primarily focus on currency exchange services for individuals and small businesses rather than catering to active retail forex traders. In practice, this means you’ll need at least $2,000 CAD ready to begin, although KnightsbridgeFX has indicated there may be rare flexibility depending on specific circumstances. Such flexibility, however, shouldn’t be relied upon as a guarantee. Importantly, there are no specific deposit or withdrawal fees charged by KnightsbridgeFX, but I would urge caution regarding any potential charges from intermediary or receiving banks, especially with international payments. For me, the high minimum transaction size, combined with the absence of proper regulation, is a significant factor to weigh. If your trading plan or currency exchange needs fit this higher entry point, KnightsbridgeFX might be technically accessible. However, I cannot stress enough the importance of fully vetting your options and understanding the risks before moving forward, particularly when a firm is not regulated by recognized authorities.
