Demo account вђ“ A demo account is available for new traders and will remain open until there is no login for seven consecutive days.


Classic account вђ“ this entry-level account requires a minimum deposit of 100 USD, and, like all tickmill accounts, offers a swap-free islamic account option.

Welcome Account, support@tickmill.com.


Pro account вђ“ this account, also with a swap-free islamic option, requires a 100 USD minimum deposit and is the entry-level account for professional traders. Tighter spreads are available in exchange for a commission of 2 USD per side per 100,000 (a standard lot) traded. This commission pricing and structure is an industry-standard and is in line with what other STP brokers offer clients for the same services.

Welcome Account, support@tickmill.com.


Deposit and withdrawal fees


Tickmill takes deposits through a variety of global and local methods, under a zero fees policy. They include:



  • Visa/mastercard

  • Bank transfer

  • Neteller/skrill

  • STICPAY

  • Fasapay

  • Unionpay

  • Nganluong.Vn

  • QIWI

  • Webmoney



The zero fees policy means that tickmill will reimburse traders for any fees charged up to 100 USD. If you were charged, submit a copy of the bank statement showing the charge, and the amount will be credited. Should the trading account become inactive, tickmill reserves the right to start reimbursing transfer fees.


Tickmill for beginners


Tickmill does not have a traditional introductory course, but they do publish webinars and seminars to help new traders get their footing. They have also made available a detailed ebook which many new traders will find useful. Additionally, while the analysis blog and tradingview analysis tools do not explain the basics of trading, they do offer new perspectives on currency markets.


Educational material


For new traders, tickmillвђ™s main resource is its downloadable ebook, but the webinars and seminars are also of great assistance.


The 46-page ebook, titled the majors вђ“ insights & strategies, is well illustrated and a suitable replacement for an online course for beginners. The ebook covers forex trading basics and how forex trading works, an introduction to the major currency pairs, trading strategies and the major types of forex analysis. The ebook ends with a section of top tips which will give traders more confidence in their decisions.


Welcome Account, support@tickmill.com.


Webinars are run in four languages (english, arabic, italian and german), and all previous webinars are available in an archive. The webinar subjects vary from more fundamental concepts like news trading strategies to technical analysis and chart theories like standard elliot wave models.


Tickmill has a schedule of free seminars around the world, which introduce traders to new areas of learning and also allows clients to meet brokers in person and create relationships.


Analysis material


The tickmill research team runs a regular blog which covers topics that relate to both fundamental and technical analysis. Research often covers different currency pairs and encourages traders to learn about market-moving events outside of conventional news sources.


The blog is open to all readers and tickmill allows traders to contact the author with questions about their article. This is unique among brokers, who typically shy away from one-to-one contact with traders when it comes to discussing specific investments.


Tickmill is also active on their tradingview pro account where analysts are continually marking up charts. Even if traders are not going to take advantage of these trading opportunities, they are a great way to learn technical analysis from the pros.


Trading platforms


Tickmill supports metatrader4 (MT4) and the associated web and mobile applications. MT4 is the industry leader and the most common trading platform for CFD traders.


Welcome Account, support@tickmill.com.


There are many advantages of signing up with an MT4 broker and using MT4 for trading:



  • The MT4 community is vast, as is the amount of the text and video resources to support both new and experienced traders.

  • The MT4 EA (expert advisor) community of developers is very active, so renting or buying algorithmic trading software is very easy.

  • MT4 has very low system requirements, so a new device or computer is not necessary to get started.



Trading tools


Tickmill also provides a number of useful trading tools.


Autochartist is a third-party automated chart analysis tool which scans the markets for volatility and notifies traders of relevant trading opportunities. Since it integrates into MT4, information is available inside the trading view and adds little complication to the platform while providing additional analysis. Autochartist is a common technical analysis tool among traders, so training videos are easy to find online. Tickmill offers autochartist free of charge to all live accounts and the demo account on a delay of five candlesticks.


Another common third-party trading tool available on tickmill is myfxbook autotrade, which is a cross-broker social trading platform that allows for copy trading without the need for additional software.


The one-click trading MT4 expert advisor (EA) is designed to make common trading mechanisms more accessible, which facilitates trading and removes unnecessary navigation between windows and charts. This EA does not overly simplify MT4, but it does make trading on the platform less complicated.


Tickmill VPS has partnered with beeksfx to provide discounted VPS services to clients. While many brokers will include VPS as a free service for active traders, VPS has chosen to partner with a leading 3rd party provider and asks clients to take on the additional cost.


Mobile trading apps


Metatrader4 (MT4) is also available on IOS, android and windows mobile phone and tablets. The app will connect to the same account as the desktop software, keeping the trading experience synchronised, and traders mobile.


Evaluation method


We value transparency and openness in the way we review the partners. To bring transparency to the forefront, we have published our review process that includes a detailed breakdown of the tickmill offering. Central to that process is the evaluation of the reliability of the broker, the platform offering of the broker and the trading conditions offered to clients, which are summarised in this review. Each one of these is graded, and an overall score is calculated and assigned to the broker.


Tickmill risk statement


Trading forex is risky, and each broker is required to detail how risky the trading of forex cfds is to clients. Tickmill would like you to know that: cfds are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. 73% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading cfds with tickmill ltd.


Overview


Tickmill is an award-winning and trustworthy STP broker that relies heavily on industry-standard platforms to enable fast execution. With a strong education section, additional premium tools offered to traders for no extra cost, and good trading conditions, tickmill should be a top choice in forex brokerage.

    Complaints about tickmill


    Tickmill is a startup forex broker, yet has enough various references in internet.

Traders trust the company, recommend it.


    There are also negative comments concerning withdrawal issues, inconvenient personal account, no contact with technical support, terminal deadlocks, slippages. Besides, the broker’s agent is rarely to see on forums, to resolve the negative issues and users problems. To avoid the negative dealing with the company, ask your account manager about the account verification terms, guideline for using bonuses and withdrawal aspects. Please point also that the broker has yet to find and win its audience, which means there will be more references about it and its early to draw any conclusions now.


    If we find complaints about tickmill, we will post it on social media. Follow us to be well informed:

    Tickmill broker regulator


    Tickmill possess some solid licenses, which make trading with the company safe and secured. The broker is a member of the company tmill UK limited, which is subject to regulation of the financial supervision agency of UK (FCA, № 717270). The company possesses also the FSA license of seychelles (tickmill ltd seychelles, № SD008), is registered in estonian ministry of economic affairs (№ VVT000289).


    Is tickmill a scam?


    Despite the fact that tickmill is a startup company in the market of forex-services and has yet to show its potential and capacities, it already won the user’s trust, has the image of safe and stable company, which differs it from paper brokers (truth about forex). There is a large number of references about the broker in internet, besides they are more positive, this proves the commitment of the company, which main concern is to provide its user with the best conditions only (low spreads, accurate quotations, automated trading option, low entry threshold etc.). Traders recommend the broker, point the company as one of the main lowcosters of trading, which also describes it positive. Please note also that there is a company representative working on negative feedback, he is inactive though.


    The quality service issue is of great importance for the company. So the broker offers for trading the terminal metatrader 4, tested by millions of traders, securing the stable trade, which got positive references from the company customers. Among the advantages of the broker are provision of trading tools, services, bonuses, professional technical support, this is to say about the well considered strategy of cooperation with the customer.


    Also worth noting is that the tickmill official website, which is user friendly, contains a lot of helpful materials about the company, trading terms, licenses, analytics and training information. The solid certification of tickmill is also a significant point of confidence for a user.


    Shall we say that tickmill is a scam lottery and a bucket shop? Despite of the fact that the broker is the one of the startup brokers in forex market, it managed to give a solid performance already, proving its stability and commitment to stated aims. And yet, at this stage of the company growth it is too early to draw conclusions, if tickmill is a scam artist or not, but you can protect yourself properly dealing with your account manager.


    Summary


    The forex broker tickmill is a startup, rapidly growing company with all chances for the leadership among its competitors. Even now it has the image of a successful and stable company, numerous positive comments (about favorable trading terms, quality service, professional support service etc.) and references from customers, this is in a lot of ways to say that the broker is on the right path of development.


    The safe terminal, gainful bonuses, quality analytics, training option – all this also describes the broker in a positive way. The company has negative references, too, not that much though, besides there is a broker’s agent working on forums. It is to be hoped that the company plans to attend to customers references and enhance its service keeping the pace of its successful start. It is fair to say that tickmill didn’t yet profile itself at full breath, it is early to appraise it as a reliable or a fraudulent company. Yet the feedback from traders, which we expect to this review, may not only change broker ratings significantly, but caution users against possible problems, too.

  • Do we recommend tickmill?


    Tickmill is not a bad broker.


    On the good side, they are a 100% NDD broker that is regulated with FCA. Their overall trading fees is competitive with some accounts. Also, they do not charge any deposit and withdraw fee, which is good.


    But they don’t only offer MT4 platform for now. Also, their instruments other than forex are very limited. Their support also is not the best out there.


    Overall, there are better forex brokers for south african traders to choose from.

    Metatrader 4 is an award-winning trading platform widely recognised as the gold standard for forex trading. It offers 9 time frames and more than 85 indicators. Users can access and share eas (expert advisors) and automated trading systems, and back test their own trading strategies.


    MT4 can be installed on windows and OS X pcs, as well as mobile devices.


    Mobile trading


    As far as mobile accessibility goes, tickmill’s offering is fairly standard.


    The website is reasonably easy to access and navigate using mobile devices. MT4 can be installed as an app on ios and android devices. This allows traders to access their accounts while on the go, with nearly all the functionality of the desktop platforms.


    The browser-based version of MT4 is also mobile friendly.


    Pricing


    Tickmill’s pricing is competitive when compared to other brokers. The spreads charged on the classic accounts are higher, but about average for small accounts.


    Both the pro and VIP accounts are ECN accounts and offer lower spreads but charge commission. The low commission on the VIP account is especially attractive, but a $50,000 deposit is required. The higher commission on the pro account is about average for similar accounts, though spreads can add an unknown factor.


    The typical spreads for ECN accounts on the EUR/USD pairs seems to be 0.2 pips which is toward the lower end of the range when compared to other brokers.


    We didn’t find complaints about the spreads, though some people commenting in online forums complained about slippage.


    Deposits & withdrawals


    Tickmill offers the usual range of deposit and withdrawal options, including credit and debit cards, wire transfers, neteller, skrill, and a few other ewallet solutions. Minimum deposits are generally $100, and minimum withdraws $10. No fees are charged for any deposits or withdrawals apart from wire deposits below $5,000.


    The broker claims deposits are all processed instantly and withdrawals within 1 working day. We did find some complaints online about withdrawals taking longer which tickmill said was due to service providers.


    Customer support


    Customer support is available via email, phone, call back and live chat. The broker can also be reached on social media channels. Support is advertised as being available 24 hours a day on business days.


    Support is available in english, indonesian, italian, chinese, russian, spanish, and polish.


    We did find a few complaints regarding the level of professionalism and knowledge of the support staff.


    Research & education


    Tickmill’s education section consists of an extensive glossary, video tutorials and educational articles. For the most part these are fairly basic and cover the fundamentals clients will need to get started.


    Regular webinars are also hosted to discuss the market, though these all appeared to be in portuguese and german when we checked.


    The educational resources are sufficient for newbies to get started, but to become a competent trader more material will be needed. That’s not necessarily a problem as there are plenty of educational resources available around the web for free.


    Noteworthy points


    For the most part tickmill’s offering is very standard, but there are a few unique features. The broker runs a trader of the month competition with a prize of $1,000. The prize is based not only on profits but on risk management as well.

    Another unique competition is the NFP machine competition in which clients predict the price of a specific instrument 30 minutes after US non-farm payrolls are released. The prize is $500 for an exact match or $200 for the closest guess.


    In 2016 tickmill won the chinese forex expo awards for “the most trusted forex broker” and “the best ECN/STP broker.”


    In 2017 they won the “most trusted broker 2017” award from the UK global brands magazine.


    IN 2017 tickmill was awarded the ‘best forex trading conditions’ prize at the UK forex awards, and in 2018 they won “best forex execution broker” at the same event.


    In general, the broker seems to have a good reputation and most complaints we found seemed to be relatively trivial. They don’t appear to be the subject of any major investigations or disputes


    Conclusion


    Tickmill is a very standard broker in many respects. For newbie traders the range of instruments is good, and the pricing is fair for small account sizes. The UK entity’s low leverage is ideal for those still learning the ropes. The educational resources are enough to get started. Another advantage for new traders is that the offering is simple without an endless range of platforms and instruments which can be confusing.


    More advanced traders may also find the pro account feasible depending on the frequency of their trades. The spreads are very low and the commission reasonable.
