What are the drawbacks of using Fusion Markets?
While Fusion Markets offers a lot of advantages, there are a few things I don't like. The fact that it operates under offshore regulation with the Seychelles FSA, while legitimate, doesn’t provide the same level of investor protection as ASIC. I prefer brokers that are fully regulated by reputable bodies, so the offshore regulation is a bit of a concern for me. Also, Fusion Markets imposes regional restrictions, meaning some countries, such as the United States, Canada, and parts of Europe, cannot access its services. This limits its accessibility for some traders, which I find a bit frustrating. Finally, while the Zero Account offers excellent spreads starting from 0 pips, it charges a commission of AUD $4.50 per trade. For traders who prefer commission-free accounts, this might not be ideal, and they might opt for the Classic Account, which has no commissions but higher spreads. These factors are not necessarily deal-breakers for me, but they are something to keep in mind.
