To sign up for an XM trading account, you have to fill in some personal information and provide some documents for verification. The documents required for XM registration depend on your country of residence and account type. 

Most of the time, these documents are a valid government-issued ID and proof of your residential address. For some countries, additional documentation may be required such as a bank statement or utility bill. If you are opening a corporate account, you will also need to provide corporate documents such as the company's Articles of Association. XM has a dedicated team of account managers who can help you with the registration process and answer any questions you may have.

Signing up on XM is very easy. You just need a few steps and you're good to go! The process is simple and straightforward, so you'll be up and running in no time.

Step 1 - Go To The Registration Page

The first step to start registering an XM real account is obviously visiting its website. After that, in the upper right corner, you will see the green button labeled “Open an account”. By clicking it you will start the process of setting up an XM real trading account.

Step 2 - Fill in Basic Details

After clicking the button you will go to the next stage where you should fill in some basic personal information:

• First name
• Last name
• Country of residence
• Preferred language
• Phone number
• E-mail address
• Trading platform type
• Account type

Step 3 - Choose The Account Type & Agree To T&C

When moving onto the next stage you have to fill in your date of birth and your address details (city, street number, residential address, zip code). Then it is time to choose your favorable XM account type, then fill out some information about your investment history and trading knowledge. The last step is to set up a password and review all terms and conditions.

Step 4 - Confirm Your Email

All that now remains is to verify your email. This email is sent to you after you fill in all the blank fields and press the green button labeled “Open a real account”. Once you press it you will receive the instructions in the mail and after following the link given, your XM registration will be complete.

Step 1 - Login To Your Account 

After email verification, your account is good to go, but there is one thing you should do before trading just to make sure everything goes smoothly, and that is to verify your XM real account. First, you have to go back to the XM website and log in with your chosen email address and password.

Step 2 - Click on the “Validate Your Account” Button

After logging into your XM account you should find the button marked “Validate Your Account” which will take you to the page where you can upload all the necessary documents.

Step 3 - Upload Necessary Documents

Uploading documents is an easy but vital part of verifying your XM real account. You should simply upload a copy of your ID and proof of address to fulfill the necessary documentation requirements. Follow the uploading process correctly to avoid any complications. 

XM offers four main types of accounts: Standard, Micro, XM Zero, and XM Shares. All of these accounts (except XM Shares) have a 5$ deposit minimum. The main difference 

between the XM account types is the minimum deposit, leverage, and contract size. It depends on your needs, goals, and knowledge when deciding on which XM account type to choose. 

For example, if you're a beginner trader, then the XM Micro account is likely the best option for you. On the other hand, there is the XM Shares account which has a $10,000 minimum deposit and also provides users with higher leverages and larger contract sizes.

The XM broker provides customers with a variety of options when it comes to financial instruments, including Forex, CFDs, stocks, and cryptocurrencies. You can choose from two platforms for trading, namely the MetaTrader 4 (MT4) and MetaTrader 5 (MT5) platforms. 

XM also offers a mobile app for trading on the go. So XM clients can choose to trade on either the MT4 or MT5 platform, or they can use the XM mobile app. XM clients can also trade on multiple platforms at the same time.
