Comment by Reviewer
"After opening an account, I think Equiti is a pretty good option for experienced traders looking for ECN pricing with high leverage rates on the feature-rich MT5 platform. That said, the offshore regulation doesn't give me a great deal of confidence and the lack of educational tools is frustrating."	"IQ Option is a good broker for beginners with a slick platform and low minimum investment. New users can also open an account in three easy steps."
Pros
I'm pleased that there's a strong range of accessible payment methods, including bank wire, cards, e-wallets and cryptos The free demo with unlimited usage is a game-changer for those who want to continuously test their strategies DeFi enthusiasts can speculate on an impressive range of 80+ cryptocurrency CFD products I appreciate the 24/6 customer support available in 6 languages, via email and live chat High leverage rates of 1:2000 are on offer for experienced margin traders	User-friendly platform for beginners Excellent range of payment methods Reliable 24/7 multilingual support Access to IQ Option community High payouts on binary options iOS & Android compatible app
Cons
I think retail clients should look elsewhere for robust regulatory oversight since Equiti's main brokerage branch is regulated offshore Equiti falls short in terms of educational material and extra tools, with one of the most basic offerings I have seen I'm disappointed that bank transfer and e-wallet withdrawals are subject to a fee of 1% up to $30	€10 inactivity fee after 90 days No MetaTrader 4 integration

CFD Trading
The broker's CFD range encompasses all my favorites: forex, US, UK and European stocks, international ETFs, energy commodities, global stock indices and cryptos. They're all available with competitive ECN conditions from within the MT4 or MT5 trading platforms.	IQ Option deals primarily in CFDs, which are available on stocks, forex, cryptocurrencies and several other markets. The leverage available is in line with EU restrictions, to a maximum of 1:30 on major forex pairs but with less available on more volatile assets. Trades are commission-free with floating spreads and clients can use the award-winning platform.

Forex Trading
During my testing, I uncovered nearly 70 foreign exchange CFDs - not a bad line-up compared to other brokers I review. The broker’s STP execution model means that execution times for me are generally quite low and spreads are competitive, starting from 0.0 pips.	IQ Option offers CFD trading on 24 forex assets, including major pairs and some minors. EU traders can access a maximum of 1:30 leverage in line with local regulations. The broker offers commission-free trades but spreads are on the high side so the brand does not excel in this area.

Cryptocurrency
I’m pretty happy with Equiti’s 1:10 leverage and spreads from $5 on popular crypto pairs like BTCUSD. Savvy clients can also utilize the broker's signals and market news to get crypto trade ideas and keep abreast of industry developments.	IQ Option is a leading crypto broker. They offer multipliers and a huge range of digital currency markets, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Cardano. Leverage of up to 1:2 is available with a variable spread and no commission. Newer traders will also rate the intuitive trading software.
