The Bad
Asides from stocks and ETFs, their asset offering lacks variety Their web platform is completely impractical to use for professional trading They don’t let you enjoy your demo trading experience in peace, there is a constant pop-up asking you to fund your account at all times	No proprietary platforms or technology Expensive spreads and trading fees Lack of asset variety when compared to other brokers in the same range
