The phrase beside each name comes from that firm's Singapore record; its place in the list comes from its score.

Broker's Detail

Which MT5 brokers in Singapore also offer MT4 or TradingView?

Among MT5 brokers in Singapore, OANDA and MultiBank Group also name MT4 beside MT5, and OANDA and Phillip Nova name TradingView beside it. Phillip Nova names its own NOVA platform as well, Phillip Securities (POEMS) its POEMS family, and OANDA its own web and mobile platforms. If you prefer MT4, I would point you to our Best MT4 Brokers in Singapore (2026) page. The chart below draws the same marks for the four brokers on this page.

A dot marks a platform each firm's own Singapore site names beside MT5, and a short line marks one not named on the pages read. We read each site from a Singapore connection on the same day as the MAS directory read noted under the comparison module, and the marks are advertised statements, never tested.

Which MT5 broker has the lowest EUR/USD spread in Singapore?

Phillip Securities (POEMS) has this page’s lowest advertised minimum EUR/USD spread, 0.3 pips on its FX CFD account; MultiBank Group’s ECN average, 0.1 pips, is the smaller figure. Fair desk scores mean I make no recommendation on either Phillip Securities (POEMS) or Phillip Nova. Phillip Nova advertises 0.6 pips on its Phillip MT5 account, OANDA 0.8 pips on its Spread only account. MultiBank Group’s Standard and Pro averages, 1.5 and 0.8, are commission-free; the ECN commission rate is unstated.

How much is a pip worth on MT5 in Singapore dollars?

A pip on one standard lot (100,000 units) of EUR/USD is worth US$10, and in Singapore dollars it moves with the USD/SGD exchange rate. The calculator below applies exchange rates from our dated rates file, whose date it prints, so you can check the pip value for any lot size you trade.

How much do you need to open an MT5 account in Singapore?

You need S$0 to open at OANDA, S$0 at Phillip Nova for individual and joint accounts, S$0 at Phillip Securities (POEMS) for a CFD account, and US$50 at MultiBank Group, its minimum initial deposit on the Standard account. I would practise on MT5 with a demo account first: see our Best Forex Demo Accounts in Singapore (2026) page. Our Best CFD Brokers in Singapore (2026) page compares CFD brokers.

How we check that an MT5 broker is licensed by MAS

Every broker on this page is an entity the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) Financial Institutions Directory lists, and its own Singapore site names MT5 on a page that prints that entity. The ”+” row in the comparison module names each entity and its permissions. Our Best Forex Brokers in Singapore (2026) page carries our Singapore list of eighteen brokers, and our MAS-Regulated Forex Brokers in Singapore page covers MAS regulation.

FAQs

Which MT5 broker is best in Singapore?
OANDA is the best MT5 broker in Singapore. I recommend it because it ranks first in our comparison of MAS-licensed brokers whose own Singapore sites offer MT5, with a global score of 88.3 from our global testing. OANDA Asia Pacific Pte. Ltd. is listed in the MAS Financial Institutions Directory for OTC derivatives. You can open with no minimum (S$0), and the Spread only account advertises a minimum EUR/USD spread of 0.8 pips.

Four MAS-licensed brokers support MetaTrader 5 in Singapore: OANDA, MultiBank Group, Phillip Nova, and Phillip Securities (POEMS), in score order. OANDA Asia Pacific Pte. Ltd., MEX Global Markets Pte. Ltd., Phillip Nova Pte. Ltd., and Phillip Securities Pte Ltd are each listed in the MAS Financial Institutions Directory, read on 24 September 2026. OANDA and MultiBank Group carry global scores from our global testing, while Phillip Nova and Phillip Securities carry desk scores, scored from published information, not tested.
Can I trade MT5 and TradingView with the same broker in Singapore?
Yes. OANDA and Phillip Nova both offer MT5 and TradingView, so you can trade both with the same broker. At OANDA, TradingView, MetaTrader 4, and MetaTrader 5 are used from the same OANDA account. Phillip Nova runs Phillip MT5 and offers a connection from the Phillip Nova account to TradingView. OANDA Asia Pacific Pte. Ltd. is listed in the MAS Financial Institutions Directory for OTC derivatives, and Phillip Nova Pte. Ltd. for leveraged forex and OTC derivatives.
How much do I need to start trading on MT5 in Singapore?

MultiBank Group's US$50 is a minimum initial deposit on its Standard account.
Is MT5 trading legal in Singapore?
Yes. A joint Singapore Police Force and MAS media release of 6 June 2025 said the websites of two unregulated trading platforms would be blocked because they were determined to be in breach of the Securities and Futures Act 2001. The SPF and MAS strongly encourage the public to deal only with regulated online trading platforms that hold valid capital markets services licences and are listed on the MAS Financial Institutions Directory.
What leverage applies to MT5 forex trades in Singapore?
For MT5 forex trades, a retail customer posts a 5% (20:1) minimum margin on major currency pairs, under regulation 24A and the Fourth Schedule, Table 18, of the Securities and Futures (Financial and Margin Requirements for Holders of Capital Markets Services Licences) Regulations, read 28 September 2026. Accredited, expert, and institutional investors face 2%. A licensee may require more from you, or take less margin with a stop-loss. MT5 or any other platform does not change these rules.
