Risk warning and disclosure

We compare only terms we could verify; check each broker's Hong Kong eligibility and price list before you open an account.

This page is general information, not personal advice. CFDs are leveraged; losses can mount quickly and most retail clients lose money. Pepperstone, Capital.com and XS serve Hong Kong residents from offshore entities without an SFC licence, so SFC rules and Hong Kong dispute channels do not cover those accounts. Spread figures are minimums or averages the providers publish and widen in fast markets.

Disclosure: eccrypto.com earns a commission when you open an account through some links. That does not change our cost arithmetic, explained in our methodology.
