Advantages and disadvantages
Every Broker has its pros and cons, let's have a look at the ones that elevate & denounce HighCapital.
To sum up the HighCapital Review
HighCapital adheres to strict regulatory guidelines of the CySEC. Unfortunately, the company is not particularly transparent about the spreads so I cannot compare the biggest fee that brokerages charge. I was attempting to find any info on the spreads for popular forex pairs but without any luck. What, however, the HighCapital website informs its visitors is that they can open a free demo account and trade with MT4. So I suppose you scan the spreads there.
HighCapital offers a good amount of deposit and withdrawal methods, which is a good advantage. That said, there is a withdrawal fee of €25 to €40 on most funding methods.
