Leveraged slashed from 200:1 to 20:1.

"Unlike ESMA, ASIC said that it would not distinguish between major and minor currency pairs. Instead, the watchdog proposes a single leverage ratio limit for all currency pairs 20:1.

For equity indices, ASIC suggests a ratio of 15:1, commodities excluding gold 10:1, Gold 20:1, crypto-assets 2:1, and equities 5:1. The implementation of these measures has so far been reportedly delayed as the Aussie watchdog received a high volume of responses to its consultation paper."

don't expect the consultation responses to change anything, certainly didn't in the EU when the same thing happened back in the beginning of 2018.
ASIC claimed they did this because of the losses people experienced during the pandemic, but I am not buying that, This must have been in the works way before that, since ESMA did the same in Europe, and I distinctly remember that happaned before the pandemic.

yes it was, right from the start ASIC set out to introduce regulations that were even more stringent than the over-reaching ESMA did back in early 2018.

Regulator one up-man-ship, it must be a competition, but lucky they didn't go for the full CFD ban as they did in the US.

I'm a spammer for hankotrade. I flood sites with false recommendations and tell people that I started with a $100 Ecn account for EUR/USD and the commission structure for that was $2 per $100k, but I don't actually trade at all.

Is Hankotrade a scam? Most likely.

PS: I'm actually a spammer working for Hankotrade. Do not trade with these bums.
Warning: Do not trade with Hankotrade.

Do you mean my suggestion?
Well, I already compared tons of Brokers for the spread, no one can beat ICMarkets actually, and I used it for quite few years already. Their withdrawal without any issue.
and the most important is the price feeds! Many brokers used poor quality of price feeds, if the price feeds inaccurate with the current market price, then your indicator & your analyse will goes wrong. I had seen a prop firm using their own server and price feed, the price can goes more than 100 pips difference! It is ridiculous!

I had compared their price feeds, all these brokers have similar quality of price feeds.

I opened an account with CedarFX, initially because they had a low minimum deposit requirement and also because prices seemed competitive since they don’t charge commissions, withdrawals fees, or fees for inactivity. I was also happy that they support the MT4 platform. At first I was only trading pairs like EURUSD but I decided to branch off into cryptocurrencies and realized that they also had a lot to offer there. I know there are a lot of brokers out there to choose from but I’m happy so far and don’t have plans to leave because I think their costs and offers are pretty good.
