ACY Securities is a forex and CFD broker founded in Sydney in 2011. ACY Securities Pty Ltd holds a real ASIC license, and a related firm in Johannesburg holds an FSCA license. Most other clients instead use ACY Capital LLC, based in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines with no regulator at all.
Traders get MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5, or the ACY Trading Platform, covering 2,200+ markets in forex, shares, and crypto. Minimum deposit is just $50. ACY advertises spreads from 0.0 pips, but that only applies to ProZero and Bespoke accounts with added commission. The free Standard account often runs near 1.0 pips.
On Trustpilot, ACY scores near 4.5 of 5 from about 690 reviews, and many buyers thank named support staff. Still, independent sites report real complaints about slow withdrawals. Spain's CNMV and France's AMF both added ACY to their unauthorised firm lists in 2024 and 2023, and Malaysia flagged it in 2022.
