ScoreCM Review
ScoreCM is ideal for those looking to quickly start on MT5 with a small deposit and high leverage — suitable for beginners testing strategies and active scalpers.

Overall, the broker presents itself as a reliable entry-level 'workhorse' that requires cautious risk management.

- 24/5 multi-channel support.
Cons
- Offshore regulation and no compensation scheme.
- Short operating history (since 2024) and limited public reputation.
- Limited market offering — approximately 60 CFDs; no CFDs on stocks and soft commodities.
- High spreads/swaps on the Standard account and an annual $25 inactivity fee.
- Only one platform available (MT5).
