No third-party trading platform is named anywhere on the site: TEFS buys the order-execution technology and terminal from a third party as a white-label solution, so 'platforms' is recorded as not published. Expert Advisors are not blanket-permitted or blanket-banned: the agreement voids accounts using prohibited methods 'including certain Expert Advisors (EAs)' without defining which, so the field is left unstated. Trading fees are $0.007 per share/CFD with a $1.50 minimum ticket on US stock CFDs, plus spreads and swaps.
