Daniel Hartley
Broker Reviews Writer
Daniel writes broker reviews and comparisons for ForexArc. He tests brokers firsthand by opening live accounts, checking licences against regulators’ official registers, and recording spreads, commissions, swap rates, and deposit and withdrawal times. Rather than relying on marketing claims, he focuses on what traders can expect in practice. Daniel also trades forex and CFDs himself since 2017, mainly on MetaTrader 5 and cTrader. That experience informs his coverage of the details that matter to active traders: overall costs, execution, platform options, and how straightforward it is to withdraw funds. Each review is fact-checked before publication.
