Trading.com

Pros: Trading.com is one of those brokers where you get access to short-term CFD trading and long-term investments in the stock market. That flexibility is rare in this industry. That’s why I signed up without a doubt.
The onboarding process was smooth, customer service verified my account on the same day. There are two accounts, one for CFD, and another for investments. Guess what? I opened both.
Getting a welcome bonus of $50 was a good starting point. I explored the platform and bought some small stocks. Then after depositing $10000 bucks, getting a deposit offer of up to $5000 worth of shares was a big surprise to be honest. I took full advantage of it and made my investment portfolio effective enough, diversifying it by US and Spanish stocks. While the portfolio is growing month by month gradually, other parts of the money I use for short-term trading, and it’s going pretty well.

Cons: In my opinion, a broker of such a level could offer more platform options and make the UI more user-friendly. It takes a while until you get used to functionality and the rest. Of course, once you are used to it, it’s easy to use, but if you’ve never used it before, it becomes challenging.

Overall: I tested my pending and market orders, they went through clean and without having big slippage. Also, before that, I checked withdrawals, because I didn't want surprises later. Everything went smoothly. You just fill in all the information and provide necessary documentation, and the broker will always approve your requests quickly. The timing of the transaction fully depends on your payment provider, that’s what I realized while proceeding a bunch of withdrawals.

Pros: Their very own custom trading platform offers robust, tradingVIEW charting that is considered as one of the best in the trading world for technical analysis. On top of that, I noticed seamless integration between desktop and mobile interfaces which streamlines workflow for monitoring positions across multiple devices efficiently.

Cons: Not sure about the cons. I started trading with them only 4 months ago and didn’t notice anything bad so far.

Overall: I will be honest, trading.com delivers professional grade reliability with transparent pricing and responsive execution that aligns well with my scalping strategy. Apart from trading, I can invest in the stock market, which diversifies my trading experience. I already invested in stocks, and they gave me a welcome bonus of €50 in the beginning, which is not bad.

Pros: Been with trading.com for 2+ years right now, their conditions are their strong side. I sometimes just buy the stocks and check them once a week or less, and those are adding up nicely. On trading Im everyday, leverage is fine 1:30 and spreads are tight.

Cons: Education can be a con, not too bad though. But some of their lessons are really basic and short, and for better education a trade will still need to go online.

Overall: Soon as I saw the US and UK licences, it was really obvious for me that they are extremely legit. Perhaps they are not here for like decades, but you need those if they have sufficient regulation, and they surely do.
Right when I first became a client, I liked their accounts very much. One is for long-term investments without any swap and only long option, great for buying and holding on to stocks. Other is for trading with 1:30 leverage, I do intraday with it on some instruments including stocks, thats the approach which has been working out pretty okay for me.
