The average execution speed is according to the HFTrading official website 0,08 seconds.

HFTrading Fees (Spreads)

As any other CFD broker, HFTrading charges a spread fee. For the most current spread charges, please visit the HFTrading.com.au website. The charged spread differs on the traded asset and the account type that the trader has; here is a breakdown of spreads that HFTrading charges on popular currency pairs.

*The screenshot above was taken from the official HFTrading website on 30.07.2020 at 21:00 GMT and informs about the minimum spreads HFTrading charges depending on what account type a trader has. The broker does not specify on the website the requirements traders have to meet to obtain the gold or platinum account. However, when I asked the HFTrading customer support on their live chat how to get the gold or platinum account, they replied that any trader can obtain them and that they usually differ in the starting capital (Which is not set in stone for the gold and platinum accounts).

HFTrading features on the MT4 platform, 19 cryptocurrencies: BTC, BSV, BTG, DSH, ETC, ETH, IOT, LSK, LTC, NEO, QTM, SIC, USDT, XEM, XLM, XRP, XVG, ZEC, ADA, BAB. Every cryptocurrency can be traded against the US dollar, some of them also against the euro or pound sterling. In total, HFTrading supports speculation on 33 cryptocurrency pairs.

To sum up the HFTrading Review

HFTrading adheres to strict regulatory guidelines of the ASIC and FMA. The broker features a good amount of CFDs on which it charges average spreads. The website of the company is modern, light and simple. The broker offers to its traders a popular trading environment - MT4. The biggest disadvantage of HFTrading that I see is that they accept only traders from Australia and New Zealand. Apart from that, HFTrading is a CFD broker to keep an eye on.
