Axi
We opened the file on Axi the way we open every file: register first, marketing never. Trading since 2007, run out of Sydney, Australia, and carrying 5 licence entries on the public record, 2 of them tier-1. Opened under the ASIC entity.
What the two desk scores say
Both are out of 10 and both are computed, not felt.
| Cost score | Priced off the spread basis below, not off a headline rate card. | 7.6 |
|---|---|---|
| Safety score | Weighted on licence tier and on how many of the entries we could re-read at source. | 8.2 |
| Cost per 10 lots | Ten round-turn EUR/USD lots priced at the spread basis, commission excluded. | $70.00 |
Spread basis. sampled EUR/USD average on the tightest retail account. Nothing on this page is a live quote; a spread printed on a Tuesday afternoon is not the spread you get thirty seconds after a non-farm payroll release.

Which entity actually holds your money is decided at signup, by the country on your application — not by the strongest licence in this table. Read the client agreement you are handed, then match the entity name against the row above.

CFDs are complex instruments with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. A desk file is a record of what the public register said on the day we read it, not a recommendation to open an account.
