The very first thing that left a positive impression on me was its robust regulation. That is the first thing I check with every broker that I consider trading with. XS excels in this regard, having operational licences from some of the most respected regulatory authorities, such as Cysec and ASIC. This instils confidence and you can be at peace of mind without worrying that you will be dealing with some shady broker. Regarding the trading terms, XS has created an interesting concept of providing many account types that have slightly different trading conditions. It is helpful since they can provide an almost tailored solution depending on your trading style and strategy. I opted for the PRO account. The depo requirement was reasonable and the spreads were much better than the standard.
