GO MarketsStock Broker ReviewHas commissions

GO Markets offers share CFDs under ASIC and CySEC regulation across three platforms, MT4, MT5, and cTrader, providing equity market access with institutional-grade execution. GO Markets is an Australian and Cypriot-regulated multi-asset broker with over a decade of operation in the ECN forex and CFD space, extending its execution model to global equity CFD markets. The EDGE account's raw spread plus commission structure brings equity CFD pricing closer to what institutional traders would see on direct market access platforms.

Share CFD range

GO Markets provides share CFDs on major US, UK, and Australian equities. EDGE accounts offer raw ECN spreads with per-trade commission, providing transparent equity CFD pricing. Dividend adjustments are credited or debited on equity CFD positions that remain open past the ex-dividend date, reflecting the underlying stock's dividend cash flow in the CFD account.

Platform

MT4, MT5, and cTrader are all available. The cTrader platform offers native ECN connectivity and superior depth-of-market visibility, particularly useful for equity CFD position management.

Regulatory position

ASIC regulated (Australia) with negative balance protection and segregated funds. CySEC regulated (Cyprus) with ICF compensation fund coverage up to EUR 20,000. The dual ASIC and CySEC framework means Australian and European clients both operate under Tier 1 regulatory protections, with client money held in segregated accounts at major banks.

Limitations

$200 minimum deposit is higher than zero-deposit ASIC competitors. Share selection is limited vs dedicated equity platforms. No real ownership or tax wrappers.

Bottom line

GO Markets suits multi-platform traders who want ASIC/CySEC-regulated equity CFD access with the flexibility to trade across MT4, MT5, or cTrader.
