Research notes: Max leverage 1:200 is for CMC Markets Bermuda (global site). FX Active commission stated as '$2.50 per $100,000 notional' - per side vs round turn not stated, so commission_rt_usd left null (likely ~$5+ RT per EUR/USD lot). Standard (spread-only) account EUR/USD spread not captured (pair page failed). Regulation page, EUR/USD page and FX Active page (en) failed to load. ASIC/MAS/other entities not captured. Payment methods, fees, min deposit not confirmed.
