Range of platforms

MetaTrader 4 and 5: are among the world's most popular trading platforms for retail traders. Trade from the charts, manually or through trading robots. If you're new to MetaTrader, we suggest downloading MetaTrader 5, which supports a wider range of markets and order types. It's also much faster than its predecessor.

Exness Terminal: is Exness' in-house web trading platform. We like its sleek and user-friendly interface built around TradingView charts. However, unlike MetaTrader, it doesn't support trading robots.

Trading conditions

For beginners: Exness offers trading accounts for beginners, experienced and professional traders alike. Its Standard account, designed for beginners, has no minimum deposit. You may also qualify for unlimited leverage (see terms and conditions).

For experienced traders: Exness also offers Pro, Raw and Zero accounts for advanced users. These trading accounts offer highly competitive trading conditions but require a US$3,000 minimum deposit.

Swap-free trading: is available across most currency pairs, cryptocurrencies, stocks and indices for all users.

Copy trading

You may copy other traders on the MetaTrader platform through third-party apps available on the MetaTrader Marketplace. However, Exness has also built its own social trading platform. You can search and filter traders based on their risk profile and return on investment, as illustrated in our second screenshot.

Trading tools

Trading Central: Exness has partnered with Trading Central to provide daily trading signals across Forex, cryptocurrencies, stocks, indices and commodities. We particularly like the ability to embed these signals directly within MetaTrader 4 through Trading Central's 'Technical Analysis Indicator' (Windows only). They're also available through the client portal, as illustrated in our third screenshot.

VPS: if you have an interest in automated trading, we suggest hosting your Expert Advisors on a virtual private server. You can apply for a free VPS strategically located near Exness' own servers if you meet relatively low deposit and/or trading volume requirements. Visit Exness.com for more information.

With Exness, you can open a trading account in one of 44 currencies. These include USD, EUR and GBP as well as currencies from many Asian, Middle Eastern and African countries. Open an account in your currency to avoid foreign exchange fees. You'll find the full list of currencies on this page.

Exness accepts bank transfers, card payments, electronic wallets and cryptocurrencies. Exness supports over 70 cryptocurrencies through BinancePay, as well as direct Bitcoin, USDT and USDC payments. As payment options vary from one country to the next, open an account on Exness.com to see what's available to you.

Exness charges no fees on deposits, but third-party fees may apply. Exness charges no fees on withdrawals either, and will even pay any third-party fees so you don't have to. Deposits and withdrawals are processed automatically, without manual intervention, 7 days a week.

The choice of payment methods depends on the company that you open an account with, and your country of residence. Please visit the company's website for a list of all payment methods.

Exness holds its clients' funds in segregated accounts with tier-1 banks. This means that your funds will be totally separate from the bank accounts it uses for its business.

In addition, you'll enjoy negative balance protection. This means that you cannot lose more money than the funds you've deposited in your Exness account, as stated in its risk disclosure document.

The Exness brand is shared by several affiliated institutions, licensed with regulators in Cyprus, the UK, South Africa, Kenya and offshore jurisdictions. However, you won't be covered by an investor compensation scheme. The Exness Group is a member of the Financial Commission, but no payouts are available in the event of insolvency.
