Not every forex broker has the best PAMM account. Some of them lack statistical service and others don’t have enough volume of both investors and managers.
People who are looking for forex brokers with the best PAMM accounts are divided into two categories. Either they are managers looking for a broker with a lot of PAMM clients or they are investors seeking a forex broker with the best PAMM managers and the reliable statistics of managers’ accounts.
If you are a trader who wants to attract investment, a good PAMM forex broker for you is the one that provides you as much exposure as possible so it should have an active PAMM community who can be informed and have access to PAMM managers easily.
On the other hand, the best PAMM forex brokers for an investor are the ones that provide reliable information and statistics about PAMM accounts and managers so that they can analyze and decide which one is better and bring them more profits.
I looked into a lot of forex brokers to see which ones have strong PAMM community and reliable statistical tools and data.
There are some brokers that are very good in general but they don’t have the mentioned factors related to PAMM accounts.
However, there are still some standard forex brokers with high-quality PAMM accounts both for traders and investors.
One common aspect among them is they all have a long history of PAMM accounts so they’ve built a strong active community over time and enhanced their quality of service.

The Bottom Line
There are lots of forex brokers offering PAMM accounts, however, lots of them can’t bring you enough investors or managers and/or provide you standard statistical tools.
You may not need those conditions if you are an investor who wants to invest in your friend or a trader you know well, or if you are a trader who knows enough investors. That way, you can choose from whichever broker, offering PAMM service, that you think it’s a good broker in general.
But if you don’t have that condition and want to find the best PAMM forex brokers with the best PAMM accounts, you should look for the ones with a large network of PAMM managers and investors and the brokers that provide a standard PAMM service.
I tried to find the best ones by checking lots of forex brokers and list the ones that not only do they have high-quality PAMM service but they are also standard forex brokers with good trading conditions.
Thank you for very deep research of PAMM investment possibilities.
You’re welcome Igor
