What FxPro Is and Who Runs It

FxPro dates from 2006 and keeps its headquarters in London. The brand is operated by FxPro Group Limited and, according to FxPro, is privately owned and not publicly listed. Group offices are listed in South Africa, the UAE, the Bahamas and Cyprus, and clients are spread across more than 170 countries.

The site is independent of FxPro and built as an information and comparison resource for traders in Kenya; the broker does not run it. Where a detail is described by FxPro itself, the answer says so.

Accounts, Deposits and Payouts

Funding a live account starts at $100, and no deposit is needed for the demo. Spreads on Raw+ and cTrader begin at 0.0 pips, with a commission of $3.50 per lot per side ($7.00 round turn) added; Standard carries no commission and a spread from 1.2 pips. Leverage is listed at up to 1:200.

Cash is requested from the Withdrawal section of FxPro Direct once the account has been verified, and the amount cannot be larger than the free margin. Money normally goes back to the payment method used for the deposit; if that is not possible, an alternative is agreed with FxPro directly.

Platforms, Demo Trading and Automation

MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5, cTrader, FxPro Edge and TradingView are the platforms FxPro runs. MT4 works on both Standard and Raw+ accounts, with desktop, browser and mobile versions, and Expert Advisors can run continuously on it. Windows gets a native desktop build, iOS and Android have dedicated apps, and Mac or browser users go through WebTrader.

Every platform has a demo funded with virtual money: nothing to pay and nothing to deposit, and FxPro describes it as unlimited. Expert Advisors work on the MT4 and MT5 demos, which lets a strategy be tested the way it would run live. An unused demo may in time be archived, so it is worth checking the current terms.

Help and Access from Kenya

There is no FxPro branch in Kenya; traders here are served through the international operation, so contact happens inside the FxPro Direct account area or the FxPro app rather than at a local office.

FxPro describes its support as running 24/5, in multiple languages, while markets are open. Live chat in the account area usually gets a reply sooner, and email suits questions where documents need to be attached.
