Best VPS for XS

XS is a multi-asset CFD broker that traces its roots to Australia in 2010 and now operates internationally as XS.com across multiple jurisdictions. It offers forex, indices, commodities, and share CFDs on MetaTrader platforms, though its own site discloses that its current retail offering sits outside the EU/MiFID II framework. Public detail on its full regulatory footprint and execution model is limited compared to more transparent, tier-1-regulated brokers.
