Brokers, ratings and new transparency with ESMA

It’s important to note that all these percentages apply ONLY to CFD trading.
None of the brokers have shared the win/loss percentages for real stocks trading.
Another thing I’d like to see is the percentages without the inhouse trading accounts.

Of course, no one stock broker will share the P/L info about their clients. Because for the stock market needs a deposit much more then for FX and it is considered that traders are more familiar with the risks and understanding of the stock market (although this is far from true))

Just to update Forex Ninja has posted an up to date and informative post regarding just this topic:

Should we consider this a good news? As I remember that percentage used to be quite higher…

It’s important to note that these percentages are related to CFD trading only… They do not include stocks, ETFs and all other asset classes that are not CFDs… so, yeah. In essence - they tell us nothing.
