We checked which brokers let people living in Jordan trade forex: 4 of the 7 we follow do. XTB does not accept residents of Jordan, so XM leads.
By Broksal Team, investing in forex and CFD markets since 2017. Updated . How we test
How we score
Each broker gets five sub-scores out of 5:
Regulation and safety (30%), trading costs (25%), platforms and tools (20%), range of markets (15%) and ease of use (10%). The overall score is the weighted average, rounded to one decimal.
Availability is checked against each broker's published country lists. The ranking order is editorial and reflects our commercial agreements, so it does not always follow the scores. Full methodology
Advertiser disclosure
Broksal is free to use because some brokers pay us a commission when you open an account through our links. This can influence which broker we feature and the order in which brokers appear.
Commissions never change the facts we publish about regulation, fees or country availability, and they cost you nothing.

CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. Most retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs. Consider whether you understand how CFDs work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money. Each broker publishes its own current loss percentage on its website.
Forex from Jordan: the rules
Brokers usually serve Jordan through offshore entities where forex leverage can be far higher than in the EU. Higher leverage magnifies losses as much as gains. Locally, financial services are supervised by the Jordan Securities Commission.
Best time to trade currencies from Amman
Major currency pairs are usually most liquid while London and New York are both open: 16:30–18:30 local time (UTC+3, early October 2026). The forex week runs from Monday 00:00 to Saturday 00:00 local time.
