Summary
A CySEC and FSA regulated CFD broker with no dealing-desk intervention, Errante offers trading on cryptocurrencies, shares, energies, metals, indices, and over 50 Forex pairs. Errante supports MT4 and MT5 platforms, and it allows both hedging and scalping. Forex education and analysis materials are limited compared to Errante’s larger competitors, but we put this down to the company’s relative youth.
The entry-level account offers comparatively poor trading conditions, with a minimum deposit of 50 USD, and EURUSD spreads at 1.5 pips but makes up for it with lower trading costs on the VIP and tailor-made accounts, where EURUSD spreads are as low as 0.0 pips in exchange for much higher minimum deposits.
A global CFD broker with over 20,000 clients worldwide, Errante was founded in 2019 and is headquartered in Cyprus. It is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority (FSA) of Seychelles and the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission CYSEC. See below for details:

On this basis, we consider Errante a safe and dependable broker.
A market maker with ECN account options, Errante offers trading on six asset classes, including cryptocurrencies, shares, energies, metals, indices, and over 50 Forex pairs. Errante offers full support for both the MT4 and MT5 platforms on four live accounts and an unlimited demo account. All accounts are commission-free accounts, except the Tailor-Made Account, and commissions are dependent on trading volumes. All accounts feature a maximum leverage of up to 500:1 and a minimum order size of 0.01 lots. Errante allows hedging and scalping, and according to customer service, will be adding a copy trading service to its repertoire in the near future. Lastly, accounts are only denominated in two base currencies, namely EUR and USD.
It should be noted that disappointingly, neither the average nor the minimum spreads are published on Errante’s website.
The Standard Account has a minimum deposit requirement of 50 USD, with spreads averaging at 1.5 pips on the EUR/USD, which is wider than other similar-sized market makers. Account-holders can trade on all available instruments.
Premium Account
The minimum deposit requirement on the Premium Account is 1000 USD, and spreads average at 1 pip on the EUR/USD. Account-holders receive a daily markets summary, personalized customer support, and have access to enhanced educational materials.
VIP Account
In order to open a VIP account, a minimum deposit of 5000 is required. Average spreads hover at 0.2 pips (according to customer service and the information published on the site), which is exceptionally tight, and no commissions are charged. VIP traders will not be charged fees on any deposit and withdrawal methods, and in addition to enhanced educational material access, will receive free VPS services.
Tailor-Made Account
As the name suggests, this is a customisable account with a minimum deposit requirement of 15,000 USD. Spreads start at 0.0 pips on the EUR/USD but lower leverages apply. A commission will be determined based on trading volumes, and margin calls are set upon request.
Demo Accounts
Errante’s demo account mimics the conditions found on the Standard, Premium, and VIP accounts, on both the MT4 and MT5 platforms, and is available with a virtual balance of 10,000 USD. The demo accounts are unlimited and are a good way to test trading strategies before committing with real money.
Spreads and Commissions
Spreads at Errante are wider than similar-sized market makers on its entry-level account, starting at 1.5 pips on the EUR/USD. Premium Account spreads tighten to 1 pip on the same currency pair in exchange for a higher minimum deposit, and VIP account-holders can access an extremely tight spread of 0.2 pips on the EUR/USD. Spreads on the Tailor-Made account start at 0.0 pips on the EUR/USD in exchange for a commission per lot, but this is determined by the trading volume.

Errante for Beginners
Errante’s educational and market analysis materials are very limited, but we put this down to the company’s relative youth. However, the responsive customer service is available 24/5 to answer any technical or account-related questions.
Educational Materials
Errante’s educational materials include a selection of beginner and advanced training videos, and Metatrader 4 and Metatrader 5 platform videos. The videos cover a variety of topics including an introduction to forex, technical and fundamental analysis, and more. While limited, they are of a high-quality, but users will need to register to access the majority of the videos.
Alongside this material, Errante also hosts frequent multilingual webinars, on all aspects of trading including the Basics of Trading, Technical and Fundamental Analysis. Past webinars are stored in an archive, and are available on demand. Webinars are free to all website visitors, but require registration.
Also limited, Errante only offers clients a daily market commentary in written format, which is composed by its in-house team of analysts. Other market analysis tools include margin calculators and economic calendars.
Customer Service
Customer support is available 24/5 in 11 languages via email, telephone, and live chat. For the purposes of this review, we found the customer support extremely responsive (within 20 seconds), polite and very resourceful.
Trading Platforms
Trading is offered on the MT4 and MT5 platforms and their associated desktop, mobile and web-based applications.
Metatrader 4
MetaTrader 4 is one of the world’s most popular and versatile platforms, offering powerful features to help you make educated trading decisions. Though it is now showing its age, MT4 is still popular for its auto trading features that enable algorithmic trading and strategy backtesting with expert advisors (trading robots). Other features of MT4 include:
MQL4 programming language
Single-thread, single-currency backtesting
30 inbuilt technical indicators
31 graphical objects
Nine timeframes
MetaTrader 5
MT5 is at the forefront of trading software and boasts millions of users worldwide, featuring an in-depth qualitative and quantitative analysis. The MT5 trading platform is being adopted by more Forex brokers all the time, it has a more modern interface, allows for an unlimited number of charts to be used, shows Depth of Market, and has a built-in Economic Calendar. It also has a larger number of pending order types than MT4 and features an embedded chat system. In addition, the MQL5 scripting language is more efficient than its precursor and MT5 has more advanced charting tools than MT4.
We value transparency and openness in the way we review the partners. To bring transparency to the forefront, we have published our review process that includes a detailed breakdown of the Errante’s offering. Central to that process is the evaluation of the reliability of the broker, the platform offering of the broker and the trading conditions offered to clients, which are summarised in this review. Each one of these is graded, and an overall score is calculated and assigned to the broker.
Risk Statement
Trading Forex is risky, and each broker is required to detail how risky the trading of Forex CFDs is to clients. Errante would like you to know that: Our products are traded on margin and carry a high level of risk and it is possible to lose all your capital. These products may not be suitable for everyone and you should ensure that you understand the risks involved.
