Vortex FX is a forex & CFD broker based in United Kingdom, established in 2017. On Trust Broker Hub it holds a Trust Score of 2.9 out of 10, which we rate as Poor — below the 4.9/10 average for brokers that hold a verified licence. High-risk profile — proceed only with caution and small amounts.

We could not verify any regulatory licence for Vortex FX. 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.

Vortex FX provides access to Commodities, Indices, Metals, Stocks. Published conditions include a minimum deposit of $200 and leverage up to 1:500. No complaints are currently on record. Overall, Vortex FX carries a high-risk profile. Only consider it with money you can afford to lose, and verify everything independently first.

Our verdict on Vortex FX

Editorial · updated 03 Aug 2026
Our analysis · editorial 2.9/10

High-risk profile

Vortex FX does not hold a verified regulatory licence on record. Based in United Kingdom, it has been operating for about 9 years. We have no complaints on record against it. Weighing regulation, track record and complaint history, our Trust Score is 2.9/10 — a high-risk profile.

Strengths
  • Operating for 9 years
  • No complaints on record with us
  • Supports MT4 & MT5 trading
  • Accessible minimum deposit ($200)
Watch-outs
  • No verified regulatory licence on record — funds may lack protection
  • Very high leverage available (1:500) — amplifies risk
Bottom line: High risk — we would avoid depositing significant funds until its regulation improves.

Frequently asked

Is Vortex FX a safe broker?
Vortex FX scores 2.9 / 10 on our Trust Score, below the 4.9 average for brokers that hold a verified licence. It has no verified tier-1 licence, raising risk. It has no complaints on record with us, though that is not proof of good conduct. Trade only with funds you can afford to lose.
What is the Vortex FX MT5 server name?
Vortex FX is listed in the MetaQuotes MetaTrader 5 directory under the server name "VortexFX". In MetaTrader 5, add an account and search for that name, then choose the exact server shown in your account details from the broker. Read our methodology.
Is Vortex FX regulated?
MetaQuotes lists Vortex FX Ltd. with the status "Non-regulated". That is the broker's own declaration to MetaQuotes, not a licence we have checked. We hold no verified licence for it, so check the regulator's own register before depositing.
How is the Vortex FX 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.
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 Vortex FX?
Vortex FX publishes some trading terms, but always confirm withdrawal fees directly. Test with a small amount first and document every transaction.
