Markets4you (formerly Forex4you)
2 legal entities are on file for this firm, across 2 jurisdictions. The strongest supervision on file is Tier 3.
Caution — watch list means: Every entity we could locate for this firm sits offshore or is a company registration rather than a financial licence. No regulator has published anything about the firm; this is the register flagging the absence of tier-1 supervision, not an allegation.
No live tier-1 licence on file. Supervision listed: FSC British Virgin Islands, FSC Mauritius.
A group can hold a tier-1 licence and still onboard you through an offshore entity in the same structure. The licence protects clients of the entity that holds it — not every client of the brand. Check which company name appears on your own client agreement, then look that company up in the table below.

Not verified at last check
Recorded openly rather than filled with a plausible guess. A blank on this register means we could not confirm it on 2026-09-15.
- not verifiedfounded and hq — not stated on the pages read
- not verifiedminDeposit, maxLeverage, spreadEurusd — advertised figures only
- not verifiedsegregatedFunds and negativeBalanceProtection
- not verifiedaccount type names not confirmed against a legal document
- not verifiedheadquarters

- not verifiedspreadEurusd — the compare page publishes only floating-spread floors (Classic Standard from 0.9 pip, Classic Pro and Cent Pro from 0.1 pip); no typical EURUSD spread is stated on the account or trading-conditions pages
- not verifiednegativeBalanceProtection — the regulations page carries a 'Negative balance protection' marketing bullet, but the BVI Client Agreement (v. 2026, 7 pages) contains no negative-balance clause, and the trading conditions page describes Stop Out only as a measure 'to decrease the risks of clients' negative balance', not as a guarantee — left null
- not verifiedmaxLeverage regional variance — the South Africa regional page advertises leverage 'from 1:10 to 1:2000' while the global (BVI) compare page shows up to 1:4000; the string above reflects the global/BVI spec
- not verifiedaccountTypes — the seeded array ['Cent','Classic','Pro STP','Demo'] predates the rebrand; the live compare page lists Classic Standard, Classic Pro and Cent Pro, and 'Demo' does not appear on it
- not verifiedfounded — 2007 is the brand launch year per the broker's about page; the BVI company's incorporation date could not be independently verified (BVI corporate registry not freely searchable)
- not verifiedaccess — markets4you.com and forex4you.com serve Cloudflare bot challenges to automated clients (curl and headless browser both get 403), so pages were verified via Wayback Machine snapshots of the live URLs; the live pages themselves respond normally to human browsers
