Advantages and disadvantages

Every Broker has its pros and cons, let's have a look at the ones that elevate & denounce BP Prime.

To sum up the BP Prime Review

BP Prime adheres to strict regulatory guidelines of the FCA. The broker offers tight spreads on most assets and features a free demo account for practise trading. The amount of available CFDs is solid, but I am missing CFDs on stocks.

What is, however, strange is that if you take look a the PM Prime FAQ, you can notice that the minimum deposit is for a standard account is $/€/£100, for a pro account $/€/£1 000 and for a prime account $/€/£ 10 000. If you, however, look at the page account type, the minimum deposit for the standard and pro account is $/€/£5,000. So, I am not really sure which one is true. I guess you will have to contact their customer support if you want to trade with the broker.
