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.
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.
