MetaTrader 5 Brokers, Ranked by Dossier Score
Regulated forex brokers that offer MetaTrader 5, ordered by how well the entity serving your country is regulated.
This list shows the brokers in our database that offer MetaTrader 5 and hold at least one tier 1 or tier 2 licence. The order is set by Dossier Score for your country, not by commission.
What to check before choosing
A platform works the same at every broker; the account behind it does not. Compare the entity that would serve you, the pricing model of the MetaTrader 5 account, and whether the broker allows your trading style. Read our MetaTrader 5 guide for what the platform does well and where it falls short.
How this list is ranked: brokers must match the criteria above and hold at least one tier 1 or tier 2 licence. They are then ordered by Dossier Score. Measured trading cost is not part of the ranking yet. Methodology.
