TraderVerified.com is an independent, open-source intelligence (OSINT) research publication dedicated to helping retail traders evaluate forex and CFD brokers through transparent assessments and evidence-based insights.
Our editorial perspective draws on more than two decades of experience in brokerage operations, trading infrastructure, risk management, financial market research, and trading technology. Professional relationships across the brokerage and technology sectors provide valuable industry context, while published assessments are grounded in documented evidence and an established methodology.
Our mission is to support a safer, more transparent trading environment through independent broker evaluations, practical research, and constructive engagement with industry participants.
How We Make Money
TraderVerified may generate revenue through advertising from trading-related services and selective referral relationships with brokers or proprietary trading firms. These arrangements may result in commissions. We may also provide advisory services to retail traders seeking assistance with broker disputes, without guaranteeing particular outcomes.
Commercial relationships do not purchase favorable assessments or higher rankings. Brokers, including advertisers and referral partners, are evaluated according to our published methodology using available regulatory records, broker disclosures, trading conditions, and other relevant evidence. Any material commercial relationship is disclosed where relevant.
Read our Broker Ranking Methodology for details of the assessment process.
Strengthening the Industry
TraderVerified also seeks to support constructive connections across the FX/CFD industry, including with compliance professionals, liquidity providers, technology developers, and other service providers. Experience with brokerage operations and industry relationships helps inform this work and provides context for regulatory and operational questions.
Such activities are separate from editorial evaluations and do not determine broker rankings. Where a relationship presents a relevant potential conflict of interest, our aim is to make that relationship transparent.
Collaborative Transparency
We welcome evidence and informed perspectives from traders, brokers, regulators, educators, and technology providers. Documented feedback helps us check facts, identify changing conditions, and distinguish substantiated concerns from unverified allegations.
Broker assessments may be revised when credible new information emerges. We consider documented corrections and responses on their merits while retaining independent editorial judgment over conclusions and rankings.
Our goal is to encourage sound industry practices, identify risks that matter to retail traders, and make broker research more useful and accountable.
