From my own experience and after carefully examining Tradition’s offerings, it appears that the broker does not provide the sort of varied account types that many retail traders might expect elsewhere. Instead, Tradition’s focus is on institutional and professional trading, with its main regulated entity—T.F.S. Derivatives HK Limited—primarily providing access to products like FX forwards, commodities, Japanese index derivatives, securities, swaption, and non-deliverable forwards. I could not find clear mention of differing account tiers or features such as “standard,” “pro,” or “VIP” accounts. Instead, access seems structured around the specific needs of the client and the instruments traded. For me, this signals that Tradition is not targeting the everyday retail forex trader, but rather sophisticated participants who require custom solutions or high-level interdealer broking. The TRADe platform, for example, is purpose-built for certain derivatives, and not the familiar all-purpose trading platforms usually associated with multi-account setups. The takeaway, in my view, is that here, account differentiation is not about leverage, minimum deposit, or spread differences as at retail brokers, but rather relates to institutional access and product specialization. Anyone considering Tradition should approach with clarity about their own needs and the appropriateness of such a broker for their strategy, given its emphasis on regulated, professional-grade products and less on retail account perks.
