As a regular Malaysian trader, I chose Tickmill for its advertised advantages of "FCA regulation and low spreads." However, my actual experience has been mixed. The platform does hold a Labuan FSA license, and funds are segregated in a Malayan bank account, which initially reassured me. However, during my trading from March to May 2025, a series of hidden issues gradually emerged. While these didn't result in significant losses, they severely impacted my trading experience. The official website boasts "spreads on major currency pairs as low as 0.1 pips," but in actual trading, the EUR/USD spread remained stable at 1.2-1.5 pips during off-peak hours. This selective execution repeatedly caused my strategy to fail.
