Pros
The web platform delivers a fantastic user experience with advanced charting tools for day trading and customizable features, catering to both beginners and experienced traders. MT4 (but not MT5) is also supported. CMC offers excellent pricing, including tight spreads and low trading fees for all but stock CFDs. The Alpha and Price+ schemes also offer perks for active traders with up to 40% discounts on spreads. CMC Markets is heavily regulated by reputable financial authorities and maintains its stellar reputation, helping to ensure a secure and trustworthy trading environment. The brokerage continues to stand out with its wide range of value-add resources, including pattern recognition scanners, webinars, tutorials, news feeds, and research from respected sources like Morningstar.	The broker is accessible for beginners with low minimum deposits from $10 and flexible payment methods Experienced strategy providers can open social trading accounts, with monthly commissions up to 50% There's a strong range of account types for all experience levels and requirements, including Cent, Pro and Raw spread solutions Top-tier licensing with the FCA and CySEC and a strong reputation with over 10 years in business Exness is the first brokerage to pass the $1 trillion and $2 trillion marks in monthly trading volumes Highly competitive spreads are available from 0.1 pips and low commissions from $3.50 per side There's excellent 24/7 multilingual customer support via telephone, email and live chat Local payments are available, plus deposits in BTC and USDT Unlike many other brands, Exness doesn't charge any account maintenance or inactivity fees The broker offers fast execution speeds for short-term traders, averaging under 25ms
Cons
Despite improvements, the web platform still requires enhancements to make it as intuitive to trade on as software from rivals like IG. While CMC offers an above-average suite of assets, there is no support for trading real stocks and UK clients can’t trade cryptocurrencies. Trading stock CFDs incurs a relatively high commission, especially compared to the cheapest brokers like IC Markets. An inactivity fee of $10 per month is applied after 12 months of inactivity, which may deter casual investors. The CMC Markets app offers the complete trading package but the design and user experience trails category leaders like eToro.	There are no promotional deals or loyalty schemes for high-volume day traders There are several regional restrictions for retail traders including the USA, Europe and the UK Unlike most competitors, Exness doesn't provide its own education section
