Cons

Decode Global trades as DecodeFX. The main company, Decode Global Limited, is registered in Vanuatu since July 2020. A related group firm, Decode Capital Pty Ltd, holds an Australian licence and serves Australian clients on its own site.
Traders get MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5, plus a web platform and app, for forex, metals, energies, indices, and crypto CFDs. Spreads start from 0.0 pips on the commission based Pro account, and the minimum deposit is $100. Marketing pages advertise leverage up to 1:2000, far above limits set for retail clients in the UK, the EU, or Australia.
The Vanuatu regulator gives light oversight, and trackers such as BrokerChooser do not recommend Decode Global because it lacks a top tier licence. The site also markets over 20 years of trust, yet its Vanuatu entity was only registered in 2020, so check current terms before funding an account.
