Vestle UK is a trading name of Black Pearl Securities Limited (Company number 08823678). Black Pearl Securities Limited is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). They offer traders the opportunity to trade an unusually wide range of CFDs (Contracts for Difference), even including a selection of ETFs (exchange-traded funds). Access to such a wide-ranging investment universe is unusual in the retail online brokerage industry. In addition to ETFs, Vestle offers CFD trading on commodities, indices, shares, cryptocurrencies, and Forex currency pairs across both major and minor financial markets. A total of over 800 instruments can be traded with Vestle.

Accounts

Vestle currently offers only an Elite Account and a Demo Account through which traders can test the brokerage’s service. There is also an Islamic Account available.

Vestle’s Elite Account offers excellent spread on many instruments. For example, on the EUR/USD currency pair, the spread is 0.7 pips. No commissions are charged in addition to the spread, overnight financing and rollover. As an FCA regulated broker, Vestle guarantees, legally binding negative balance protection, which ensures clients cannot under any circumstances be liable for an amount greater than they deposit with Vestle.

A maximum leverage of 30:1 is available in Forex trading, in line with current regulations. Lower maximums apply to most of the non-Forex instruments which are offered. All accounts offer a minimum trade size of 1 micro-lot (0.01 full lots).

A $5,000 Demo Account is available for those who want to train risk-free, as is typical with nearly all spot Forex and CFD brokers.

An extremely wide range of CFDs of over 80 Forex currency pairs, 18 commodities (including softs), 28 global stock market indices, hundreds of major stocks and shares, 48 ETFs, and more than 10 cryptocurrency pairs. This allows for portfolio diversification and risk management, as well as exposure to new markets and instruments.

Scalping is not allowed, and automated trading is not possible.

Education

Vestle focuses on independent trading and so, there is no wonder it offers a wide variety of educational tools such as video tutorials, PDF guides and more. While the materials are updated and well-made, they will likely not contribute a lot to highly experienced traders. Clients can also benefit from limited-time, free trading signals as well as full access to an updated Economic Calendar.

At the time of completing this review, Vestle also advertises free trading courses from the Knightsbridge Trading Academy that will become available to active clients.

Bonuses and Promotions

Bonuses and promotions have been prohibited under FCA regulations and since Vestle is a regulated broker, it offers no bonuses or promotions.

Deposits/Withdrawals

Depositing funds into a Vestle account is an easy and secure process. Funding can be done using a few different methods, including Visa MasterCard, Maestro and wire transfers. Withdrawals are generally made through the same channel that deposits have been made through.

The Vestle support centre enables you to post public questions or email a representative, and you can also communicate via live chat or request remote technical assistance. You are also invited to check out the detailed Frequently Asked Questions – they cover many popular topics and are quite helpful.
