Comment by Reviewer
"eToro is a great pick for traders who want to trade CFDs with copy trading and other social investing features. The brand is hugely respected with a string of awards and strong regulatory oversight."	"Robinhood is aimed at traders looking for stocks and crypto investing opportunities with additional perks. However, the brokerage's recent business practices mean the brand isn't a good option if you want a reliable and trustworthy broker."
