Comment by Reviewer
	"AAAFx is best for forex traders seeking ECN conditions with spreads from zero and MetaTrader access. It’s also suitable for social traders with ZuluTrade support. However, AAAFx seriously falls short for newer traders with minimal research features and no educational tools."
Pros
	There are sophisticated MT4 and MT5 charting platforms for advanced day traders, featuring a huge selection of indicators, drawing tools, chart types, and analysis features. You get fast execution speeds from 10 milliseconds with no restrictions on strategies, creating a flexible environment for day traders. AAAFx supports a wide range of payment methods with near-instant funding and zero transfer fees, ensuring convenient deposits. Fast and dependable 24/5 support is available following hands-on testing across live chat, telephone and email. The minimum deposit is low and opening an account is fast, taking less than 5 minutes.
Cons
	By discontinuing ActTrader and lacking a proprietary platform, traders are limited to MetaTrader, which is outdated and less ideal for newcomers. You can’t make deposits and manage your AAAFx account through an app, meaning you have to sign in to the website, dampening the mobile trading experience. The selection of currencies is strong but AAAFx lacks depth in its stocks, indices, commodities and cryptos, limiting the range of trading opportunities. There are no proprietary educational tools, relying on ZuluTrade, making AAAFx less attractive to beginners compared to brokers like eToro.

App Review
	AAAFx does not offer its own app, but you can trade forex, stocks, indices, commodities and crypto on the MT4 and MT5 platforms. The apps offer a reliable environment for experienced mobile traders with robust charting tools. However, clients of AAAFx can’t manage their accounts, so you still have to log into the client area online to make deposits and withdrawals, making for a less complete mobile trading experience.
