Best brokers available in Germany

Germany allows regulated retail forex/CFD services as well as cash-investment brokerage, but product availability depends on the exact legal entity. BaFin product-intervention rules require protections for retail CFD clients, and a BaFin registration of an EEA firm can represent cross-border registration rather than a separate German home-state licence.
