PORTVILA, Vanuatu, July 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Leading multi-asset broker, Vantage Markets (Vantage), is thrilled to announce a series of exciting enhancements to its Vantage App, aimed at revolutionising the copy trading experience. These new features, designed to offer greater flexibility and accessibility, are set to empower traders at all levels.
Vantage Copy Trading now boasts support for a diverse range of currencies, including EUR, HKD, INR, JPY, US Cents, and USD. This expansion is a game-changer, allowing traders from different regions to participate and diversify their portfolios in their preferred currency. This is coupled with the support for 55 global deposit methods, including credit cards, and bank transfers, to ensure users can fund their accounts with their preferred method.
In addition, Vantage has also introduced multi-account type support to its Copy Trading feature. Users can now copy trade interchangeably between different account types seamlessly. For instance, a copier with a Standard STP account could choose to copy a signal provider using a Swap-free RAW ECN account, even when both users trade in a different currency. This enhancement further breaks down barriers and ensures traders can align their copy trading activities with any signal provider of their choice, enabling them to select providers based on their preferred trading styles and strategies.
These moves are in line with Vantage's continuous effort to democratise access to copy trading, starting with its lowered minimum deposit requirements to US$50, and a further streamlining of its sign up process.
"At Vantage, we are committed to making trading accessible to everyone, and our Vantage App aims to refine and elevate the user experience, offering both flexibility and powerful tools in one comprehensive platform," says Lian J, User Growth Director. "Our new multi-currency support and multiple account types are designed to further break down any geographical and technical barriers for traders, empowering traders to follow and learn from any seasoned trader they choose, supporting accessibility across all experience levels."
"One of our biggest goals of the year is to help our mobile clients develop an instinct for the financial markets and our platform in a shorter time," she added. "With the enhancements to the UI and the launch of various account types, we believe it will streamline our clients journey to capture market opportunities."

ForexBrokers.com has been reviewing online forex brokers for over six years, and our reviews are the most cited in the industry. Each year, we collect thousands of data points and publish tens of thousands of words of research. Here's how we test.
Vantage is considered Highly Trusted, with an overall Trust Score of 90 out of 99. Vantage is not publicly traded and does not operate a bank. Vantage is authorised by two Tier-1 regulators (Highly Trusted), one Tier-2 regulator (Trusted), zero Tier-3 regulators (Average Risk), and two Tier-4 regulators (High Risk). Vantage is authorised by the following Tier-1 regulators: Australian Securities & Investment Commission (ASIC) and the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). Learn more about Trust Score or see where the different Vantage entities are regulated.
Cryptocurrency: Cryptocurrency trading is available at Vantage through CFDs and through trading the underlying asset (e.g. buying Bitcoin). Note: Crypto CFDs are not available to retail traders from any broker's U.K. entity, nor to U.K. residents.
Active traders: The active trader program from Vantage offers rebates ranging from $2 to as much as $8 per standard lot, depending on your balance and monthly volume. The smallest tier starts at $10,000 and the highest tier requires at least $300,000 in equity. However, it is only available on the Standard account, which has the highest spreads from among all the account options available.
Vantage offers its own proprietary trading app, alongside the standard MetaTrader suite of mobile apps. Vantage has built a decent foundation for a new mobile trading application with its Vantage App. However, I am not a fan of the ads, and it is still a long way off from competing with the best mobile apps in the industry.
Apps overview: Vantage offers two mobile apps: its proprietary Vantage App, and the MetaTrader platform suite. The MetaTrader 4 (MT4), MetaTrader 5 (MT5), and Vantage mobile app come standard from their developer for iOS on Apple App Store and for Android on Google Play.
Ease of use: I found the advertisements within the Vantage app to be a distraction from the trading experience. I'd prefer to avoid ads and promotional content when using a mobile trading app. That being said, Vantage has done a good job of integrating research, with newsletter updates, signals, and multiple Trading Central-powered videos per day.
Charting: Charting at Vantage allows for only five time frames, one chart type, and just a handful of indicators and overlays. On the plus side, tapping on the chart launches it into a full-screen landscape view, which is a nice touch. In contrast, charting from Plus500 comes with over 100 indicators and allows for the ability to use multiple indicators at the same time.
Vantage distinguishes itself from other MetaTrader-only brokers by offering a diverse range of additional add-ons and by supporting the integration of compatible third-party platforms and tools, such as TradingView.
Market news and analysis: Also powered by Trading Central is the Pro Trader Tools product, which is offered to clients with at least $1,000 on deposit and is integrated directly within the client portal. Other useful features include its Featured Ideas tool, which is useful for traders looking for trading signals and actionable ideas, while the Analyst Views feature delivers automated analysis.
Video content: Vantage has multiple YouTube channels, each with hundreds of videos that are helpfully organized in dedicated playlists. Vantage produces and uploads several webinars per week, including its "Masterclass" videos that cover a range of trading topics.
Founded in 2009 as MXT Global and formerly known as Vantage FX, today Vantage is a member of Vantage Global Prime Pty Ltd. The Vantage brand holds an Australian Financial Services License (AFSL) with the Australian Securities and Investment Commission (ASIC).
The group also has an entity regulated in the U.K. by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) under Vantage Global Prime LLP, for institutional clients. Vantage also has an entity that holds regulatory status with the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority (CIMA), and by the Vanuatu Financial Services Commission (VFSC) in Vanuatu.
