We could not verify any regulatory licence for The Ridge. Trading with an unregulated broker is high-risk — your funds are not protected by any authority, and there is no official body to turn to if withdrawals are blocked or the broker disappears. We strongly recommend a regulated alternative from the list on this page.

The Ridge provides access to Forex, Shares, Cryptocurrencies, Commodities. Published conditions include a minimum deposit of $10 and leverage up to 1:1000. No complaints are currently on record. Overall, The Ridge carries a high-risk profile. Only consider it with money you can afford to lose, and verify everything independently first.

Our verdict on The Ridge

Editorial · updated 27 Jun 2026
Our analysis · editorial 3.5/10

High-risk profile

The Ridge does not hold a verified regulatory licence on record. Based in Ukraine, it has been operating for about 20 years. We have no complaints on record against it. Weighing regulation, track record and complaint history, our Trust Score is 3.5/10 — a high-risk profile.

Strengths
  • Long 20-year operating track record
  • No complaints on record with us
  • Supports MT5 trading
  • Accessible minimum deposit ($10)
Watch-outs
  • No verified regulatory licence on record — funds may lack protection
  • Very high leverage available (1:1000) — amplifies risk
Bottom line: High risk — we would avoid depositing significant funds until its regulation improves.

Frequently asked

Is The Ridge a safe broker?
The Ridge scores 3.5 / 10 on our Trust Score, above the 3.3 industry average. It has no verified tier-1 licence, raising risk. It has no complaints on record. Trade only with funds you can afford to lose.
How is the The Ridge trust score calculated?
The score weighs five factors: regulation tier, transparency of disclosures, operating footprint, user sentiment, and complaint history. Each is scored out of 10 and combined into the overall figure shown at the top. Read our methodology.
What does "offshore regulated" mean?
It means the broker's licence comes from a jurisdiction with lighter requirements than tier-1 regulators like the FCA or ASIC. There's usually no compensation scheme, so recovering funds can be difficult if the broker fails.
Can I withdraw funds easily from The Ridge?
The Ridge publishes some trading terms, but always confirm withdrawal fees directly. Test with a small amount first and document every transaction.
