How A Broker Gets Reviewed
1. Entity Verification

2. Cost Analysis
We evaluate spread, commission, swap, and non-trading charges.
3. Execution Testing
We test fill behavior, slippage profile, and spread stability.
4. Platform Review
We assess usability, order flow clarity, and mobile stability.
5. Funding Cycle
We run deposit and withdrawal checks for operational reliability.
6. Final Scoring
Results are weighted and converted into a final broker rating.
