Cost comparisons only hold when the account types are the same, so this compares like with like.

Spreads from 1.0 pips suggest an all-in account, where the broker's fee is built into the price rather than charged separately. There is usually no commission on top, which makes the cost easier to predict.

Quoted spreads are best-case figures on the most liquid pair, in normal conditions. What you actually pay widens around news and at the session open.

Webull lists a minimum deposit of $0. Treat it as the cost of opening an account, not the cost of trading one - position sizing on a small balance is what tends to cause damage.

Leverage is capped at 1:4, which is the retail limit under tier-one regulation. It is a protection rather than a restriction: it caps how quickly a position can move against your balance.

Webull covers stocks, etfs, options, futures, otc securities, adrs, cryptocurrencies, fixed income. A wider range matters less than depth in the instruments you actually trade.

Funding options: ach bank transfer, wire transfer, brokerage account transfer. Check withdrawal routes as well as deposit ones - they are often not the same, and the difference only becomes apparent when you try to take money out.

This is the comparison where brokers separate most sharply, and it is rarely close.

Webull holds a tier-one authorisation from CFTC/NFA. That matters more than any headline spread: it determines your leverage cap, whether losses can exceed your deposit, and what happens to your money if the firm fails.

US retail forex is jointly overseen by the CFTC and NFA, with leverage capped near 1:50 and no CFD trading permitted.
