Comment by Reviewer
"Deriv is ideal for active traders seeking alternative and unique ways to speculate on global financial markets, from multipliers and accumulator options to its bespoke synthetic indices, which mimic real market movements and are available 24/7, allowing for continuous trading opportunities regardless of market hours."	"Binary.com (now Deriv) is a great pick for beginners and advanced traders interested in short-term trading with multipliers and leveraged CFDs. The broker is also a leader in synthetic indices which simulate real market movements and are available around the clock."
Pros
Deriv stands out with its innovative products, from multipliers and derived indices to its addition of accumulator options, providing exclusive short-term trading opportunities. Account funding is a breeze with a very low minimum deposit of $5 and a huge selection of payment options, plus Tether was added to the cashier in 2023. Although response times trail alternatives in our personal experience, Deriv offers 24/7 support and is one of the few brokers to offer WhatsApp assistance. After integrating TradingView and adding MT5 web trader, Deriv now offers a first-class selection of charting tools across desktop, web and mobile devices.	Access to a range of interesting markets, including Deriv's proprietary synthetic indices which are derived from simulated markets Strong global reputation with decades of experience in the trading industry Beginners can practise strategies in the demo account with unlimited virtual funds Instant deposit methods with minimum funding as low as $5 Variety of risk management tools including trading limits and self-exclusion protocols Responsive 24/7 customer support via live chat, telephone, email or WhatsApp Sign up for a CFD or Multiplier account in minutes
Cons
Apart from the MFSA in the EU, Deriv lacks top-tier regulatory credentials, reducing the level of safeguards like access to investor compensation. Although there’s a basic blog, there's little in terms of technical analysis or market reports which could help active traders identify potential opportunities. While the Academy launched in 2021 is a step in the right direction, there is limited education on advanced trading topics for seasoned traders and no live webinars to upskill new traders. Leverage up to 1:1000 will appeal to traders with a large risk appetite but frustratingly there is no ability to flex the leverage in the account area.	Limited regulatory oversight DTrader platform only available via web browser Narrow range of instruments vs other brokers
