As someone who has spent years navigating the forex space, one of my primary concerns before trading with any provider is understanding not only their regulatory status but also their transparency regarding trading conditions—especially spreads. With U.S. Bank, I was unable to identify any clear information on whether they offer fixed or variable spreads, which immediately stands out as a red flag for me. In my experience, it’s vital to know exactly how your costs can fluctuate, particularly during periods of heightened volatility when spreads commonly widen, sometimes dramatically, around major news events. This can impact trade execution and risk management. Because U.S. Bank does not specify their spread structure in the information I reviewed, I cannot make any assumptions about their behavior during volatile periods. Furthermore, having no regulatory oversight increases the importance of full transparency, which is unfortunately lacking here. For traders like myself who prioritize cost predictability and risk control, not knowing whether spreads are fixed or variable makes it all but impossible to plan for market-moving events with confidence. For this reason, I consider the lack of disclosure on this fundamental point a significant barrier, and personally, I would not proceed without absolute clarity on these details.
