LegacyFX launched way back in the year 2012 and, with that in mind, it is safe to conclude that it has a decent user feedback score. Since its launch, it has received plenty of reviews from customers – with positive ones outweighing the bad.

A.N. (All New Investments Limited) is the corporate operator behind the LegacyFX brand. This company got registered as a CIF (Cyprus Investment Firm) and is also a member of the investor compensation scheme.

The permanent office address of LegacyFX is Q Tower, 5th floor, Ioanni Kondylaki 47, 6042, Larnaca, Cyprus​.

LegacyFX is a regulated broker, primarily under the CySEC body, with a licence number of 344/17. This means that the operator is biddable with MiFID, which gives it the theoretical right to peddle its financial services all through the EEA. On a practical level, though, the broker took its time to register and complete its regulatory processes with most of the national regulatory agencies of the EEA.

To give traders more security and insurance, LegacyFX took their regulation umbrella further by aligning with other reputable bodies in Europe. For the UK, they got regulated by the FCA with the license no: 797343. For Germany, they have been given the registration no. 348194 by BaFin. LegacyFX even went as far as getting regulated by the Belarus NBRB with a license no: 193180778. Additionally, the broker is regulated by the VFSC and has the license no. 14579.

With that being said, the broker cannot allow all traders from the EEA. Also, traders from the US and Canada are not accepted either.

So, why will a trader want to use the LegacyFX brokerage firm?

First off, the broker provides an easy withdrawal and deposit system for all its clients. As a trader, you know this feature isn’t negotiable. Also, you stand a high chance of having access to over 80 trading videos, webinars, and other educational resources—all hosted by LegacyFX academy.

You are open to making good profits, whether you are a newbie or professional trader with LegacyFX, thanks to its market insights and exclusive professional trading tools. Plus, traders that have used their service have given great reports about their customer service and support system. Many traders have spoken highly of the “dedicated support staff that is always willing to help all through trading hours.”

The broker boasts of its low trading costs, as well as its matchless liquidity. The trading conditions of the broker are undeniably very competitive. However, these competitive streaks are only on the higher-tier account types. Those with the cheapest accounts cannot expect to trade under industry-best conditions.

The Different LegacyFX Account Types

The broker has a total of three account types that cover the needs of every single trader that registers.

The handiest trader account is the Silver one, which features a minimum deposit requirement of just $250. This seems to be decent enough for a newbie trader when compared to the minimum deposit requirements.

Surprisingly, the Silver account is generous when it comes to features: it covers everything higher-tier accounts do, except for Dealing Room direct line, advanced analysis, and 1-on-1 support.

All the account types of the broker are 0-swaps. The Silver account provides access to all trading platforms of the broker. Technical analysis and educational bonuses are also included in the Silver category.

The maximum leverage on the silver category is 1:200.

Traders that want to register for the (supposedly) most popular account option of the broker will have to be ready to spend up to $5,000 without looking back.

The Gold package takes the trading game to a whole new level, delivering a Dealing Room hotline, analysis insights, and 1-on-1 support. It also comprises all the features of the Silver package.

While the Silver account holders get spreads starting from 1.6 pips (depending on the major currency pair), Gold account holders, get spreads starting from 1.0 pips.

The maximum leverage on the gold category is 1:200.

To further enhance trading conditions, traders can resort to the Platinum account, which drives spreads as low as 0.6 pips.

The maximum leverage of the Gold package remains the same, and all the possible incentives and features are part of the “VIP” package. To get such mouth-watering trading conditions, though, traders need to be ready to spend up to $25,000.

LegacyFX Trading Platform Software

This broker runs on the MT5 trading platform that supports both mobile and computer users.

The MT5 is, without doubt, the world’s most cutting-edge trading platform and it represents a significant upgrade on the MT4 platform. It also offers features that cannot be contested that most of its competitors.

Its charting capabilities are simply outstanding. It covers a vast range of chart types, technical indicators and time frames. MT5 is a fully customizable trading environment. It comes with 50+ technical indicators that come pre-installed with the downloadable platform. Plus, traders can freely install their technical indicators, acquired from other third-party creators. Much more, traders can even generate their own technical indicators via the platform.

The same thing goes for the EAs, which are some of the most valued assets of MT5. Through such custom scripts and expert advisors, traders can set up their trading methods to a point where their direct intervention is hardly needed.

Mind you; EAs have nothing in common with auto-trading scams that used to be the rage a year or two ago. They execute strategies defined by traders, in a manner specified by traders, without outside intervention.

MT4 also supports multiple order types, such as market orders, trailing stops, and Stop limits.

Conclusion

Whether you are a newbie or a professional forex trader, you can rest assured that you will be experiencing decent trading conditions with LegacyFX – plus the broker allows traders to choose from three different account types.

If you are a professional or amateur trader that wants to enjoy the experience of using professional trading tools that will enhance your trades, then it’s advisable to go for LegacyFX. It also represents a good choice for those looking for a regulated broker that runs ECN accounts with a maximum leverage of 1:200.

However, if you are looking for a broker with high leverage of up to 1:1000 – 1:300, which is riskier, then this broker may not be suitable for you.

Please be advised that some specific products and/or multiplier levels may not be accessible for traders from EEA countries due to strict legal restrictions.
