What these checks prove

  • ASICWe could not find this firm on ASIC's register. ASIC removes cancelled licensees from this dataset when it refreshes it weekly, so a licence shown here was current at the last refresh rather than at this moment.

Frequently Asked Questions

TradeDirect365 operates under the Trade Nation group, which holds licences from three regulators. Trade Nation Australia Pty Ltd is authorised by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) under licence AFSL 422661. Trade Nation Financial UK Ltd is authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) under licence FRN 525164. TRADE NATION FINANCIAL (PTY) LTD holds licence FSP 49846 with the Financial Sector Conduct Authority (FSCA) in South Africa. A separate entity branded as "Tradedirect365" could not be independently verified on ASIC's register.

Based on this TradeDirect365 review, the broker operates under verified licences from ASIC, the FCA, and the FSCA through the Trade Nation group. These are credible regulatory frameworks. However, the "Tradedirect365" brand name itself is not independently listed on ASIC's register, and independent review coverage remains thin. Traders should verify the brand-to-licence relationship on ASIC's public register and confirm their account is held under Trade Nation Australia Pty Ltd.

TradeDirect365 provides four live account types: Personal Account, TradeDirectPro (Professional) Account, Trust/SMSF Account, and Corporate Account. A free demo account is also available.

No minimum deposit amount is specified on TradeDirect365's account opening page for any of its four account types. Contact the broker directly to confirm whether any deposit threshold applies.

TradeDirect365 markets itself as offering "low cost, tight fixed spreads," but no specific numeric spread values are published. The broker promotes fixed spreads rather than variable spreads. Regarding commissions, TradeDirect365's content advises traders to seek brokers with no added commissions, though the site does not explicitly confirm that TradeDirect365 itself charges zero commissions. Swap and overnight rate information is also absent.

Yes. The TradeDirectPro (Professional) Account provides higher leverage and margins than the retail Personal Account, though exact leverage figures are not specified. Some retail client protections are not available to professional account holders.

The level of protection depends on which entity holds your account. Clients under the FCA-regulated entity are eligible for the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS), providing statutory cover of up to £85,000 per eligible claimant. Australian clients have no equivalent statutory investor-compensation scheme for OTC derivatives.

TradeDirect365 itself offers only its own proprietary CloudTrade platform with limited functionality. It does not directly provide MT4, MT5, cTrader, or TradingView. The parent group Trade Nation offers MT4, MT5, TradingView, TN Trader, and Trade Copier through its broader infrastructure. Account login and platform access route through Trade Nation's infrastructure at tradenation.com, so traders should confirm which platforms are available under their specific TradeDirect365 account entity. For a full td365 CloudTrade platform review, refer to the Platforms section above.

TradeDirect365 appears to operate as a white-label or referral arrangement with Trade Nation. The "Open Account" links redirect to go.tradenation.com, and the login portal directs to tradenation.com/login. The underlying regulatory licences are held by Trade Nation entities in Australia (ASIC (AFSL 422661)), the United Kingdom (FCA (FRN 525164)), and South Africa (FSCA (FSP 49846)). This is why many sources reference Trade Nation formerly TradeDirect365. Verify which specific Trade Nation entity will hold your account and funds, as protections and leverage limits differ by jurisdiction.

When evaluating Trade Nation vs TradeDirect365, the key distinction is that TradeDirect365 appears to funnel into Trade Nation's infrastructure. Account creation, login, and platform access all route through tradenation.com. Trade Nation offers a wider platform selection including MT4, MT5, TradingView, and TN Trader, while TradeDirect365's own CloudTrade platform is more basic. Both operate under the same regulatory licences, so the core protections are identical. The practical difference lies in which platforms and features your specific account entity grants access to.
