As the name suggests City Index started out as an indices broker, as remarkably indices have always been more popular than forex trading with UK traders. City Index are towards the top of the range when it comes to indices on offer, mid-range when it comes to index spreads and one of the best brokers for index trading signals (as they provide their own rather than buying them in from a firm like Acuity Trading).
