CFD provider notes

ActivTrades

ActivTrades appears once in the WiT Markets CFD workbook, as a brand of ActivTrades Group. The headquarters note is UK. Research status is “Review required” and coverage confidence is “Needs further verification”. The row is not a licence-by-licence register and it is not a recommendation to open an account.

Risk. CFDs are leveraged contracts with the provider. Losses can happen quickly. This note is research, not an invitation to open an account, and a listed supervisor is not a finding that the firm is safe.

Where the workbook names a group rather than the company on the client agreement, that limit stands. Subsidiaries do not automatically share terms, products or protections.

Regulatory and corporate footprint

UK FCA; PT CMVM; Bahamas SCB; Mauritius FSC (entity verify)

Illustrative group licenses ≠ authorization to onboard every resident; confirm contracting legal entity and local restrictions

  • The first source URL matches the brand homepage recorded in the workbook.

Jurisdiction dependent means the class is named and the workbook says availability follows the region. Not verified means this row does not establish the class. It is not a finding that the product is missing.

Key strengths

Proprietary platform; well-established trading brand

Key weaknesses

Availability and fees depend on account domicile

Country and regulatory considerations

Discretionary active traders

That sentence is the workbook’s editorial research-use note. It is not a rating and it does not decide who should open an account.

Sources and how to read them

The underlying research date on this row is 20 October 2026. WiT Markets did not re-open every regulator register on that date. Fees, leverage and eligibility need to be read again on the entity that would actually contract. Corrections can be sent from the corrections page.

Back to CFD Markets. The short definition remains at the CFD glossary entry.
