— the broker does not publish this figure; it is not read as a zero and it is not scored.
Plus500 publishes a retail leverage of 1:30 without naming the entity that grants it, so the figure is marked group and left out of the leverage ranking and median.

How to read this ranking
- Start with the figure this page ranks on.
Every row here is ordered by computed score, highest first; unscored brokers follow. A broker that publishes no figure is shown without one rather than guessed at.
- Check which company would onboard you.
The same brand can take a resident of Australia through a locally licensed entity or an offshore one, and the leverage cap, the complaint route and the protection all follow the entity, not the brand.
- Read the cost beside the deposit.
The median round turn across this country is 6.0 USD and the median minimum deposit 32.5 USD; a low deposit beside a wide spread takes the difference back on every trade.

FAQ
- How many brokers qualify for this ranking in Australia?
- 15 of 76 brokers measured for this country qualify.
- Which broker leads it, and on what basis?
- Fusion Markets leads it with a score of 4.63. The order is computed score, highest first; unscored brokers follow.
- What does a trade typically cost here?
- The median round turn - spread plus commission for one standard lot, in and out - is 6.0 USD across the brokers that publish both parts.
- Why do some rows show a dash instead of a figure?
- Because the broker does not publish that figure for this country. A dash is a statement about what is published, and a figure is never filled in from a group-wide page as if it applied locally.
How this slice is scored
Slice score = 2 + 3 × weighted mean of the six axes; the swap-free fee and availability feed price and reliability. A missing axis drops out and weights are renormalised; group-wide figures never enter. Full methodology

Risk warning and affiliate disclosure
CFDs are complex instruments with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. A swap-free account removes overnight interest, not market risk. We earn a commission on some links; paid rows are marked and never ranked first.
