About BrokerObserver

Who we are, how we test brokers, and why the comparison covers Vantage, VT Markets and BullWaves.

BrokerObserver is an independent comparison site for regulated forex and CFD brokers, published in English and Russian with further languages on the way.

How we test

We open real accounts, check conditions against the brokers' legal documents, measure spreads in the terminal at different times of day, test deposits and withdrawals from several countries and assess support quality. Reviews are refreshed monthly.

Why these three brokers

Vantage, VT Markets and BullWaves are licensed brokers that accept clients from the countries our readers live in, offer multilingual support and publish their conditions. Vantage and VT Markets hold tier-1 and tier-2 licences; BullWaves is regulated offshore in Seychelles, and we say so on every page where it appears rather than hiding it. We do not compare unregulated brokers and do not sell ranking positions.
