Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • - transparency of model parameters - selection of several model types - user-friendly interface - excel feature allows flexibility for market data inputs - can price several products
  • The add-in is really detailed and well designed so that it can be easily adapted for purposed large and small. My use case was very specific and likely not very common with typical users but between the add-in's functionality and the excellent support from the developer I was able to achieve the functionality I needed very easily and quickly.
  • Flexible and easy to use, spot on pricing, direct line with Ioannis to fix problems and developing new features.
  • Deriscope provides a suite of Excel-based derivatives pricing and analysis tools - after trialing and researching various products in the market (Bloomberg MARS, FINCAD, Murex to name a few) it became clear that Deriscope provided the greatest degree of customisability and therefore insight. Another advantage over competitors is the vast range of products and functions that are available. It avoids being a black-box pricing system unlike rival products and it is possible (if one wants and if one is brave!) to delve deep into the fundamentals of how the software works. Its user-friendly, object oriented nature makes it an excellent Excel-embedded solution that I would highly recommend. I would specifically recommend the premium version that makes available custom solutions and consulting - Ioannis has been extremely helpful in implementing new, more niche features.

Cons

  • None.
  • I do not really have anything negative to say about the product. Maybe the only thing would be that there is a bit of a learning curve at first use of the product but one you adapt it and become more familiar it is much easier to use. Also, some of the learning curve comes from the fact that the functionality is very robust and flexible.
  • At times it can be hard to run on a live / auto-refresh excel sheet.
  • There are very few negative points that I have encountered in my time using Deriscope - perhaps due to its far more involved and customisable nature, it will take slightly longer to onboard than, for example, Bloomberg MARS.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • i liked that xs support handles my questions fast and provideds clear details. It was so about my account registration.
  • The platform is a whole trading ecosystem, imo. Good infrastructure, many accounts and educational resources
  • what i pay for spreads is really low, same for gold and fx (including minors). dunno about other instruments, but my portfolio costs are really low, thats my biggest appreciation for them
  • I've been with the broker for four years, and it's good that recently they added a proprietary mobile application. It's definitely better than MT4, and when it comes to MT5, it still wins with a user-friendly interface. Execution is fine, no slippage. And another advantage is that I have many assets to trade - good for hedging in volatile sessions
  • shifted to this broker just around three months ago, and I'm surprised I didn't hear about them quite much. But as per my analysis, this is a very credible broker with huge history. One of the things that caught my attention was the Australian regulator.... yeaaaps, it's regulated by so many watchdogs, and Australia's ASIC is one of them. Apart from that, I really like that you can trade here on MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5, and the proprietary XS mobile application.

Cons

  • can't say very much so far since i started not long ago, so after a month or so i think i'll notice something
  • I think now they should put more focus on creating some interesting trading tools
  • not that rich in features, like i'd be happy if they add more ways to get withdrawals and to pay too.
  • Well, I don't see major minuses to complain - it might sound maybe too good, but that is as per my xp
  • maybe it's the website. I was quite surprised about the old design of the website. It does not match with the aesthetics of 2026, so I think they need to redesign their website
