You Can Now Choose Your Broker: 8FigureTrader’s Recommended Broker Partners
Published April 2026 · 8FigureTrader Editorial
One of the most common questions we receive from traders — especially those based in the United States — is: “Which broker do I need to use?” Up until now, the answer was limited. That changes today. 8FigureTrader now officially supports seven regulated broker partners, giving every trader the freedom to open an account with the platform that fits them best.
Why Broker Choice Matters
Not every broker works for every trader. Spreads, account minimums, regulation, leverage, and platform availability all vary — and what works for a trader in Europe may not be available or ideal for someone in the United States. By expanding our supported broker list, we’re removing one of the biggest barriers traders face when getting started: not knowing where to open an account.
All seven brokers on our recommended list are independently regulated, support MetaTrader 5 (MT5), and are fully compatible with Expert Advisors (EAs) — meaning whether you trade manually or automate your strategy, you’re covered.
Our 7 Recommended Broker Partners
Each broker below has been vetted by our team. Here’s a quick breakdown of what each one brings to the table:
1. IC Markets — icmarkets.com
One of the most widely used ECN brokers in the world. IC Markets is known for ultra-tight spreads, fast execution, and full MT5 and EA support. Ideal for high-frequency traders and scalpers.
2. OANDA — oanda.com
A globally trusted broker with a strong reputation in the US market. OANDA is fully regulated by the CFTC and NFA, making it one of the few brokers available to US-based traders. No minimum deposit and excellent charting tools.
3. Pepperstone — pepperstone.com
An Australian-regulated broker with multi-jurisdictional licensing. Pepperstone offers razor accounts with some of the lowest spreads available, along with cTrader and MT5 platforms and strong EA compatibility.
4. FXTM — fxtm.com
ForexTime (FXTM) is a well-established multi-regulated broker serving traders in over 150 countries. Known for flexible account types, competitive conditions, and strong educational resources — a great fit for newer traders stepping into live markets.
5. TastyFX — tastyfx.com
Formerly thinkorswim’s forex arm, TastyFX is now an independent broker catering specifically to active forex and CFD traders. It’s a particularly strong option for US residents looking for a modern, no-fuss trading experience with solid execution.
6. Forex.com — forex.com
One of the most recognizable names in online forex trading. Forex.com is regulated in the US, UK, Canada, and beyond — with tight spreads, deep liquidity, and a professional-grade platform. Another solid pick for US residents.
7. TopFX — topfx.com
A prime-of-prime broker offering institutional-grade liquidity to retail traders. TopFX supports MT5 and EAs with deep liquidity pools and competitive pricing — a strong choice for traders running automated strategies.
MT5 and Expert Advisor (EA) Support Across All Partners
A key requirement for any broker we recommend is full MetaTrader 5 (MT5) compatibility. MT5 is the industry standard platform for algorithmic and manual forex trading, and all seven brokers on our list support it. This means:
- You can run Expert Advisors (EAs) without restriction
- Copy trading and signal services are fully supported
- Your strategy works across any of the seven brokers — no need to rebuild or reconfigure
- Automated risk management tools function as intended
US Residents: You’re Included
Forex trading restrictions in the United States have historically limited which brokers American traders can access. We’ve specifically included brokers on our list that are either US-regulated or US-friendly, so that traders based in America are not left behind. OANDA, Forex.com, and TastyFX in particular have strong US market access and regulatory standing.
If you’re a US resident and have been unsure about which broker to use — reach out to our team and we’ll point you in the right direction based on your trading style and account size.
