Valutrades
We opened the file on Valutrades the way we open every file: register first, marketing never. Trading since 2012, run out of London, UK, and carrying 2 licence entries on the public record, 1 of them tier-1.
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. | not verified |
|---|---|---|
| Safety score | Weighted on licence tier and on how many of the entries we could re-read at source. | not verified |
| Cost per 10 lots | Ten round-turn EUR/USD lots priced at the spread basis, commission excluded. | $not verified |
Spread basis. . 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.
Licence entries, one row per entity
Every row links to the document we read it from.
| Regulator | Licence no. | Jurisdiction | Tier | Licensed entity | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| FCA | 586541 | UK | T1 | Valutrades Limited | register.fca.org.uk |
| FSA Seychelles | SD028 | Seychelles | T3 | Valutrades (Seychelles) Limited | fsaseychelles.sc |
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.
What we were able to confirm

- The broker's account page advertises no minimum deposit, which is a marketing claim rather than a figure taken from a legal document.

Other records open on the desk
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.
