FP Markets is a well-regulated Forex broker with two low-cost, low minimum deposit accounts, and a range of excellent trading tools. We were also impressed with how easy the FP Markets Trading App was to use and the quality of FP Markets' customer service. Regarding fees, FP Markets has an “ECN pricing” model, which it claims provides “extremely competitive” costs. Unfortunately, we found that the fees on its standard trading accounts were higher than most of its ECN competitors. But FP Markets does make it easy for beginners to get started, with 100 AUD minimum deposits and unlimited demo accounts. We are also impressed that in addition to MT4 and MT5, cTrader is also available. FP Markets is now one of a handful of brokers with such a good platform offering.

Octa will be a difficult choice for many Tanzanian traders. On the one hand, it has very low trading costs, charges no fees for deposits and withdrawals, and has a great copy trading service. On the other hand, Octa is essentially unregulated in Tanzania and has a limited range of instruments to trade compared to other brokers: 35 Forex pairs, 150 stocks, 5 commodities, 10 indices, and 30 cryptocurrencies. If you can look past these issues, you will find a low-cost broker with a fairly standard setup: Two accounts with minimum deposits of 25 USD, a slick mobile app, and a good range of trading tools. Octa also heavily promotes its wide range of bonuses, and it can offer leverage of 1:500 on Forex pairs. Finally, both accounts are swap-free for Muslim traders, and Octa always runs competitions and promotions for Tanzanian clients.
