🧠 Rating Categories & Weighting

🔐 How We Calculate Broker Trust Score
At EazySignals, trust is everything. To quantify it, we created our Trust Score—a unique 1–99 rating that evaluates how secure and reputable a broker truly is.
A high Trust Score means the broker is well-regulated, established, and safe to use. A low score means traders should be cautious.
🔍 Trust Score Factors
Here’s what we analyze to calculate a broker’s Trust Score:
- Years in Operation
- Regulatory Licenses (tiered by jurisdiction)
- Ownership Structure (public vs private, is it a bank?)
- Expert Assessment (reviewed by our founder, Vincent Nyagaka)
Each regulatory license is weighted based on its credibility. For example, a broker regulated by the US CFTC ranks significantly higher than one licensed in a Tier-3 country.
