Brokers for Scalping — What We Can and Cannot Tell You, November 2026

Written by traderpublic research deskReviewed by traderpublic research deskFact-checked by traderpublic research deskRecords last updated

Editorial note: every figure on this page comes from the broker's hub record and names the source it was checked against (our methodology). Where nobody has checked a field we say "not published" rather than guess. Nothing here is investment advice (risk disclosure).

  • Min deposit: Not published

Below: every record on this page in one table, then each broker in turn.

Brokers on this page (6 records with a published score)

Scalping opens and closes many positions inside seconds or minutes, so the cost of one round trip — spread plus commission — matters more than anything else on a broker's brochure. A page that ranks brokers for scalping should therefore rank them on those costs.

We do not publish those costs yet. Rather than invent them, this page shows the records we do hold, ranked by our published desk score, and names every scalping fact that is still missing so you can see the gap instead of guessing at it.

This order is our published desk score. It is NOT a scalping ranking: no spread, commission or execution figure on this page has been measured, so nothing here says one broker scalps better than another.

Warning:

Leveraged products such as forex and CFDs carry a high level of risk. A large share of retail accounts lose money trading CFDs. Make sure you understand how they work and whether you can afford the risk.

Scalping side by side

6 records as columns. Every cell is a record field; a field nobody has checked yet is shown as unpublished, never guessed.

What decides a scalping account — and what we have not measured

Each row is a fact a scalper decides on. None is published on our records yet, so each is marked unpublished rather than left blank.

Licences we checked ourselves

This is the part of the page that rests on evidence: each licence number was read from the regulator's own public register on the date shown.

Frequently asked questions

Does every broker allow scalping?

No. Some prohibit it outright and others impose a minimum holding time in the account terms. We do not yet publish this per broker, so check the account terms before you deposit.

Why is the cost table empty?

Because traderpublic renders only what our research hub publishes, and the hub does not send trading-cost fields yet. We will not type numbers in ourselves.

Is the order on this page a scalping ranking?

No. It is our published desk score, which covers licensing and the broker overall. Treat it as a starting point, not a scalping verdict.
