Price source matters more than an OTC badge.

This ranking separates real-market symbols, broker-priced OTC instruments, and proprietary synthetic markets. Trading-hour limits remain visible so always-on access is not confused with a market-derived price.

How we rank this category

This ranking compares price source separately from the overall score.

Price source shows whether a broker offers real-market symbols, broker-priced OTC instruments, proprietary synthetic markets, or a mixture. Compare the quote source, timestamp, trading session, and settlement rule before trading.

What to compare

Terms
Compare the value and the rules behind it

Platform values, product controls, payment rules, and stated conditions are assessed together.

Scoring
Apply the same rule to every broker

Rows rank higher when the published product setup uses market-reference symbols and clearly separates broker-priced OTC or proprietary synthetic instruments.

Scope
Read category rank separately

A higher position in this category is not a safety, legality, or suitability verdict.
