Libertex — where it wins, where it loses
Libertex does not currently take a column outright against this field. It loses on no tier-1 entity. 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 Libertex takes the field outright.
Loses on
- no tier-1 entity
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.
Licensing
Which entity, which regulator, which number
Tier decides how much weight a licence carries in any safety column. Each row links to the page it was read from.
| Regulator | Number | Jurisdiction | Tier | Entity | Read from |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CySEC | 164/12 | Cyprus | Tier 2 | Indication Investments Ltd | cysec.gov.cy |

Facts the comparison runs on
On the record
- One line that changes the comparison: libertex states that in Europe the Libertex trading platform is used by Indication Investments Ltd, a Cyprus Investment Firm regulated by CySEC under CIF licence 164/12.
- Worth knowing when you compare: libertex's terms-and-fees page states maximum retail leverage of 1:30, consistent with ESMA/CySEC retail limits.
- One line that changes the comparison: the Libertex platform charges a commission-based rather than purely spread-based fee model on its CFD account.

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:
- the founding year (brand launch year vs group founding year not separated from a primary source) is missing, so it is excluded from every comparison on this page.
- a typical EUR/USD spread is missing, so it is excluded from every comparison on this page.
- whether client money is held in segregated accounts is missing, so it is excluded from every comparison on this page.
- whether the group is publicly listed is missing, so it is excluded from every comparison on this page.
- non-EU Libertex entity, if any is missing, so it is excluded from every comparison on this page.
