Overview

Exness is a large, multi-regulated broker founded in 2008 and best known for very tight XAUUSD spreads and fast, automated withdrawals. It has grown into one of the highest-volume retail brokers in the world, with particular strength across Asia, Africa and the Middle East.

Pros

  • Some of the lowest XAUUSD spreads available, from around 0.10
  • Instant, automated withdrawals 24/7
  • Very high leverage available in offshore regions
  • Regulated by the FCA, CySEC and FSCA among others
  • Low minimum deposit and stable execution

Cons

  • Not available to US clients
  • Bonus and copy features vary a lot by region

Gold (XAUUSD) trading conditions

On the Raw Spread and Zero accounts, XAUUSD typically trades from about 0.10 with a small commission, which is competitive for gold scalpers and intraday traders. The Standard account rolls the cost into the spread. Execution on gold is stable in normal conditions, though like everywhere spreads widen around high-impact news.
