MTCook Financial Review
Overview
MT Cook Financial is a brand of financial services Atlantic Pearl Ltd., based in Australia and regulated by ASIC, FSB in South Africa and FSC in Vanatau. The boutique brokers offer single accounts for institutional and professional traders, hedging, and good execution on Meta Trader 4. While trading regulations in South Africa are not the strictest, local brokers are required to keep funds in segregated trust accounts.
Account
Single account with minimum trade of 0.01 lots and average spreads of 0.3 pips for EUR/USD pair, which means trading costs are less than 1.0 pips per lot. Leverage is not high, which means your winning trades will not be as quickly offset by a few losing trades. Maximum leverage is set at 100:1 but may be increased in some cases. Pricing is competitive and managed accounts are available.
