Overall Rating

Vantage FX pros and cons Vantage FX has low forex fees and the non-trading fees are also very favorable (e.g. there is no inactivity fee). Opening an account at Vantage FX is a very rewarding experience as the process is super fast (under 5 minutes) and fully digital. The broker offers a great variety of deposit and withdrawal options and most are free of charge.On the flip side, the product portfolio at Vantage FX is rather limited as the broker only offers forex and some CFDs. The customer service could be improved, especially with respect to the relevance of e-mailed responses. Lastly, Vantage FX does not provide any investors protection to its clients.
