Transparency About Our Relationships

Trading Barrio is a review and educational site that recommends brokers, prop firms, and trading platforms. We earn affiliate commissions when you sign up through our links.

How It Works

When you click "Open Account" or "Get Started" on our site, you're directed to a broker/prop firm with our affiliate code
If you sign up, we receive a commission (typically 20-40% of their acquisition cost)
You pay the same amount whether you use our link or go directly
Our commission does not increase your trade costs or spread

Our Review Process

Despite earning commissions, we conduct honest reviews:

We test platforms ourselves
We track withdrawal speeds and customer service quality
We remove platforms from recommendations when they show signs of scams or poor execution
We flag regulatory issues clearly

Conflict of Interest

Yes, we have a financial incentive. We make more money recommending platforms with higher commissions. To mitigate this:

We prioritize safety and trading quality over commission rates
We publicly track which platforms we've had to stop recommending
All affiliate relationships are clearly labeled on this page

No Endorsement of Trading

Recommending a platform is NOT an endorsement of its profitability or safety. Past returns do not guarantee future performance.
