Comment by Reviewer
"eToro's social trading platform leads the pack with a terrific user experience and active community chat that can help beginners find opportunities. There are also competitive fees on thousands of CFDs and real stocks, plus excellent rewards for experienced strategy providers."	"FXTM is a good pick for day traders seeking low forex commissions on the MetaTrader 4 platform. That said, the range of other assets is not extensive for those looking to diversify, especially stocks and cryptocurrencies."

Cons
The lack of additional charting platforms like MT4 will reduce the appeal for seasoned day traders accustomed to using third-party software There are no guaranteed stop loss orders which would be a useful risk management feature for beginners There is a $30 minimum withdrawal amount and a $5 fee, which will affect novices with low capital Traders will face currency conversion fees for account denominations other than USD There are limited contact methods aside from the in-platform live chat	It’s a shame that ETFs and bond products are not available, and the selection of stocks is not extensive compared to competitors like AvaTrade Spreads are mediocre in the commission-free accounts, with typical EUR/USD spreads around 1.9 pips - the industry average is around 1.2 pips Withdrawal fees apply, including a 30 EUR fee on bank wire withdrawals There are limited e-wallet payment options compared to alternatives
