CommexFX — where it wins, where it loses
CommexFX does not currently take a column outright against this field. It loses on tier-1 cover, published spread, lapsed licence on file. Its cost per ten lots is not confirmed, so it is left out of the cost ordering rather than estimated.
Column by column
The split
Two lists, no averaging. A broker that takes a column outright appears on the left of it; one that gets beaten on a column appears on the right. Nothing is scored into a single number, because a single number hides which side you actually care about.
Wins on
No column where CommexFX takes the field outright.
Loses on
- tier-1 cover
- published spread
- lapsed licence on file
Cost per 10 lots is the EUR/USD spread cost of ten round-turn standard lots at the figure above, commission excluded. Where a broker publishes a "from" spread rather than an average, the comparison inherits that limitation — see the unconfirmed list further down.

Facts the comparison runs on
On the record
- CySEC's register of former investment firms lists CommexFx Ltd (company registration 244012, licence 153/11 issued 18/10/2011) with the licence marked '(Withdrawn)'.
- CySEC's board decided on 25 July 2016 to wholly withdraw CommexFx Ltd's CIF authorisation; the decision was announced on 6 April 2017.
- The MFSA republished CySEC's withdrawal notice, stating the company was no longer authorised to provide investment services and had three months to settle obligations and resolve client complaints.
- Finance Magnates reported a further €100,000 CySEC fine against CommexFX in February 2016, while the broker's own site displayed a 'temporarily suspended' notice.
- The commexfx.com domain served a GoDaddy 'get this domain' parking page when checked on 2026-09-02.

Excluded from the maths
Not verified
Not verified
These fields are not confirmed. They are shown as gaps, not filled in, and they do not feed any column of the matrix:
- founded year not verified
- minDeposit, maxLeverage, spreadEurusd, platforms, accountTypes and instruments not verifiable — the brand's domain is parked and no current legal pages exist
- segregatedFunds and negativeBalanceProtection not verifiable
- no evidence of any current licence found; any directory claim that CySEC 153/11 is current is contradicted by the register
