Head-to-head
IC Markets vs Tickmill
A measured comparison, not an opinion piece: we sample both brokers’ demo feeds around the clock and compare 7-day average spreads for every symbol in our catalog. Data is still being collected for this pairing — the tables fill in as history accrues. Demo conditions may differ from live accounts.
Session scoreboard
symbols won per UTC session, 7-day averagesCollecting data… the session scoreboard appears once both feeds have recorded enough history.
The session split is the part most comparisons skip — and the part that matters for EAs. A broker that wins the London session can lose badly during Asian hours or around rollover, when spreads widen unevenly.
