Review of Broker Saxo Bank

Many currency reviews of Saxo Bank or reviews of Saxo Bank, in general, have expressed concern about the broker's reliability. Despite winning several awards in platform, research and brokerage areas in general, some Saxo Bank reviews hinted at disadvantages when registering with the broker.

This broker has a rate of 3.7 on Trustpilot, which, in a way, suggests that it offers good services. However, some reviews suggest that Saxo Bank scams traders, highlighting the cases in which Saxo Bank cheated on its customers. The broker reported that some reviews on Trustpilot are "spam".

However, in our review, it seems that the broker is really fine considering their confidence rate between customers and their licenses from various regulatory bodies. One disadvantage of this broker is the high minimum deposit, which starts at $10,000. But in general, its platform and commercial services are among the best in the market today.
