Most offshore brokers stick to forex, metals, and maybe a handful of indices. A smaller group goes further, offering genuine access to US stock CFDs and a wide range of crypto CFDs on the same account. This article ranks five brokers by product-range breadth, with XChief standing out for a specific reason.
Ranking criteria
This list ranks brokers on (1) total number of tradable instruments beyond core forex and metals, (2) specifically whether US stock CFDs are available, (3) crypto CFD variety, and (4) whether this expanded range is accessible without an unreasonably high minimum deposit.
#1 — XChief: 95 US stock CFDs and 17 crypto CFDs on one account
XChief‘s xPRIME account offers access to 9 metals, 17 crypto CFDs, and 95 US stock CFDs — the widest single-account product range documented anywhere in this comparison, per our XChief account-ranking article. The trade-off is a $500 minimum deposit and MT5-only availability, meaning a trader has to commit both more capital and a platform choice upfront just to unlock this breadth. For someone who specifically wants this combination of US equities and digital-asset exposure sitting under one account alongside standard forex and metals, no other broker on this list matches it in a single unified account the way xPRIME does.
#2 — EBC Financial Group: 200+ CFDs across both of its accounts
EBC offers access to more than 200 CFDs spanning forex, indices, commodities, US stocks, ETFs, and digital assets, per our EBC overview — a wider raw instrument count than XChief’s xPRIME account above. It ranks second rather than first because, unlike XChief’s single concentrated account concept, EBC’s range is distributed more broadly across index and ETF products rather than weighting as heavily toward individually named US stocks specifically. Whether that’s an advantage depends on your strategy: traders who want broad index exposure may prefer EBC, while those who want to trade specific named companies may still find XChief’s narrower but deeper stock-CFD list more useful in practice.
#3 — DooPrime: the widest platform range, a more modest instrument range
DooPrime supports MT4, MT5, its own InTrade platform, and TradingView integration — genuinely the most diverse platform lineup documented anywhere in this series, as covered in our DooPrime overview article. Its underlying instrument range, however, is less clearly and specifically documented in public materials than either XChief’s or EBC’s above, which is exactly why it ranks third here specifically on instrument breadth for US stocks and crypto CFDs, even though it would likely rank first on a differently scoped list built around platform diversity instead of product-range depth.
#4 — Alpari: stock CFDs and ETFs, but only on one MT5-only account
Alpari‘s Pro ECN account expands into stock CFDs and ETFs with more than 250 total instruments claimed, but as detailed in our Alpari account-comparison article, this expanded range sits behind a $500 minimum deposit and is only accessible on MT5 — a broadly similar trade-off to XChief’s xPRIME account above, but with a less specific public breakdown of exactly how many stock CFDs versus other instrument types actually make up that headline 250+ number, which is why it ranks below XChief and EBC on this specific comparison despite a comparable deposit threshold.
#5 — Markets4you: crypto trading available broadly, but no stock CFDs
Markets4you supports crypto trading across most of its six account types, a genuine plus for accessibility since it doesn’t require opening a separate premium tier the way XChief or Alpari do, but doesn’t offer stock CFDs at all based on currently available public information, per our Markets4you comparison article. This ranks it lower on this specific list despite otherwise competing well on account-lineup breadth and low deposit thresholds elsewhere in our coverage — for a trader specifically prioritizing US stock CFD access alongside crypto, Markets4you simply isn’t the right fit regardless of its other strengths.
Quick comparison table
- XChief: 95 stock CFDs, 17 crypto CFDs, 9 metals — $500 deposit, MT5-only.
- EBC: 200+ CFDs across stocks/ETFs/digital assets — accessible on both of its two accounts.
- DooPrime: widest platform range (MT4/MT5/InTrade/TradingView), less documented instrument count.
- Alpari: stock CFDs + ETFs, 250+ instruments claimed — $500 deposit, MT5-only.
- Markets4you: broad crypto access, no stock CFDs.
Why does XChief edge out EBC despite EBC’s higher raw instrument count?
EBC’s 200+ figure is a real number, but it’s distributed across a broader mix of indices and ETFs rather than concentrating as specifically on individually named US stocks the way XChief’s 95-stock figure does. For a trader whose specific interest is trading recognizable individual companies as CFDs rather than index-level exposure, XChief’s more concentrated stock offering can be the more directly useful breadth, even at a smaller total number — which is why this ranking weighs relevance to a specific use case, not just raw count.
The common trade-off across every broker offering this kind of breadth
Every broker on this list that offers genuinely wide product access gates it behind either a higher minimum deposit (XChief and Alpari both require $500) or, in EBC’s case, applies it across a simpler two-account structure that doesn’t require an upgrade decision at all. There’s no broker here offering this breadth at a $10 entry point — which makes sense, since supporting stock CFDs and a wide crypto range involves real infrastructure and liquidity-provider relationships that cost more to maintain than a basic forex-only offering.
A note on what CFD access actually means here
Every product on this list — stock CFDs, crypto CFDs, index CFDs — is a contract for difference, not real asset ownership. You’re trading price movement, not acquiring shares with voting rights or dividends, or coins held in a wallet you control. If your goal is genuine asset ownership rather than speculative price exposure, a traditional stockbroker or a crypto exchange serves that purpose in a fundamentally different way than any broker on this list.
How to verify a broker’s stock CFD list before opening an account
Rather than relying solely on a headline number like “95 stock CFDs,” the more useful check is confirming the specific companies included match your actual interest — one broker’s list might lean heavily toward US tech names while another’s covers a broader mix of sectors and geographies. Most brokers publish a full instrument specification sheet (contract sizes, margin requirements, and the underlying symbol list) somewhere in their help center or trading conditions page, and it’s worth pulling that list up directly for your top one or two candidates before assuming a large headline number means your specific interests are covered.
Frequently asked questions
Is a wider product range worth paying a higher minimum deposit for? Only if you’ll actually use it — a trader who only ever trades forex gains nothing from XChief’s stock CFD range and would be better served by a lower-deposit account elsewhere in that broker’s own lineup.
Does product-range breadth say anything about regulatory quality? No — these are entirely independent factors, covered separately in each broker’s own overview article. A wide product range doesn’t substitute for evaluating licensing.
Can you test this range before committing the full minimum deposit? Most brokers on this list offer a demo account matching each real account type — testing the specific instruments you care about on demo first is worth doing before depositing $500 anywhere.
How stable is this kind of ranking over time? Instrument counts and account minimums can change — treat this as a snapshot reflecting each broker’s lineup at the time of writing and confirm current offerings directly.

Trading stock and crypto CFDs involves leverage and carries a high risk of capital loss, distinct from owning the underlying asset. This is not investment advice. Learn more at FXM680’s Forex Academy.
