Below, we will explain the complete step-by-step process, but before that, let's take a quick review of the broker who is the official partner of Real Madrid.

Quick Introduction to easyMarkets

easyMarkets is a global forex broker that has been in operation since 2001 under the name easy-forex, which was later rebranded as easyMarkets in 2016.

This broker has headquarters in Cyprus, Australia, Seychelles, and the British Virgin Islands. It holds major regulations, including CySEC, ASIC, FSA Seychelles, and FSC BVI.

Over time, easyMarkets has expanded its services to not only offer forex but also indices, options, metals, commodities, and cryptocurrencies. It has also improved the quality of its trading tools and trading platform for user-friendliness.

What sets this broker apart are the unique features that you can only find on easyMarkets. Some of them include:

• Deal Cancellation: With this feature, traders have the option to cancel losing trades, preventing their execution. However, it's important to note that easyMarkets charges a substantial fee for each trade cancellation.
• Freeze Rate: The Freeze Rate tool allows users to temporarily lock in the displayed price for a few seconds, theoretically to facilitate trade entry. In practice, this offering is similar to one-click and automated trading, as provided in the MT4 trading platform.
• easyTrade: While the easyTrade tool is a valuable addition for enhancing risk management, it's important to mention that it's only available for a limited selection of 20 assets.
