Choice of MT4, MT5 and cTrader platforms gives traders great flexibility Reputable broker with years of awards makes FXPrimus a credible broker High leverage available up to 1:1000, or 1:500 on the higher-tier raw spread account Copy trading support through a PAMM function allows beginner or time-poor traders to earn money from experienced pros Good range of account types with a $15 minimum deposit on the cent account through to an achievable $1000 minimum for the PrimusZERO account Excellent range of accepted funding methods with 12 accepted currencies, e-wallet and international banking options, and fees covered by the broker
Cons
There’s no simplified proprietary trading platform, nor are there any social trading features, which could be a disadvantage if you are new to day trading. Pepperstone’s demo accounts are active for only 30 days, which may not be not long enough to familiarize yourself with the different platforms and test trading strategies. Pepperstone does not support cTrader Copy, a popular copy trading feature built into the excellent cTrader platform and available at alternatives like IC Markets. Despite enhancements to its range of markets, crypto offerings are relatively limited compared to other brokers such as eToro, with no option to invest in real coins.	Relatively small range of assets, with just 45+ forex pairs High $8 MT5/$10 MT4 commissions on the Primus Pro account This broker does not accept traders from the US

Copy Trading Platform
Pepperstone facilitates the replication of experienced traders' strategies through MetaTrader Signals and DupliTrade. However, it lacks support for cTrader Copy and does not offer a proprietary social trading network similar to those found on platforms like eToro or Vantage, which foster lively social trading communities for aspiring traders.	Replicate the success of other traders via the cTrader platform or the FXPrimus MAM solution. Traders retain control over their capital and can get started in a few easy steps.

Cryptocurrency
Pepperstone continues to prove itself as one of the most trusted crypto brokers. Although its selection of digital tokens is average, you can trade popular cryptos like Bitcoin and altcoins like Ripple with up to 1:10 leverage, while its crypto indices provide a holistic view of the digital currency markets not found on most day trading platforms.	Trade a small selection of CFDs on crypto tokens in USD pairs. While the selection of cryptocurrencies is very limited, the 1:5 maximum leverage is higher than many similar brokers, making this a decent option for forex traders to dip into if not for dedicated crypto traders.
