Cons
£10 monthly inactivity fee after a year of no trading Not available to residents in the USA and Canada	There are no additional charting platforms available, such as MT5 or a proprietary solution The lack of regulatory oversight is a concern, although the broker does claim to use segregated accounts and balance protection It's a shame that there's no copy trading platform for beginners or experienced strategy providers Market research tools and educational resources are very limited compared to top brands like IG
