CDO Markets ain’t the cheapest broker out there, but it’s the fastest by far. They claim millisecond execution, and it’s legit! No commissions on forex and CFDs, but yeah, spreads still gotta pay. Another plus? They got MT4 and inhouse platform for both computers and phones, pretty swanky. Been trading here for 6 months, mainly gold and oil CFDs. Plus, no hidden fees – withdrawals are free and usually take 1-2 days. Not bad, truly.

I have been trading with this company for 1 month and so far I am satisfied and will continue to trade. Your transaction costs are within reasonable limits. The amount of spreads and commissions are not very high, which I really like. The customer service they offer is fantastic. I get a quick response and my issues are resolved quickly.

While their spreads and customer support service are decent, the lack of support for MetaTrader 5 is a major downside for me. I expected a more comprehensive platform offering. The live chat is fast, but I’m not fully satisfied with my overall experience.

I’m disappointed with CDO Markets. The withdrawal process has been a hassle, taking longer than expected. Additionally, I found the high minimum deposit for certain accounts to be unappealing. Overall, I feel like I cannot rely on this broker for my trading needs.
