Comment by Reviewer
"RoboForex is great if you want a vast range of 12,000+ day trading markets with ECN accounts, powerful charting and loyalty promotions. It also stands out for stock traders with its user-friendly R StocksTrader platform, featuring 3,000+ shares, fees from $0.01 and sophisticated watchlists."	"AAAFx is best for forex traders seeking ECN conditions with spreads from zero and MetaTrader access. It’s also suitable for social traders with ZuluTrade support. However, AAAFx seriously falls short for newer traders with minimal research features and no educational tools."
Pros
RoboForex is known for its tight spreads starting from 0 pips and low minimum deposits from $10, making it accessible to those on a budget. The ability to trade with micro lots further lowers the barrier to entry for new traders. The broker offers leverage up to 1:2000 for certain account types, which is among the highest in the industry. This high leverage allows day traders to maximize their trading potential, albeit with a corresponding increase in risk. The R Stocks Trader platform rivals leading solutions like MT4, with netting and hedging capabilities, comprehensive backtesting, Level II pricing, and a flexible workspace. RoboForex offers over 12,000 instruments, providing more short-term trading opportunities than the vast majority of online brokers, with forex, stocks, indices, ETFs, commodities, and futures. The broker offers two commission-free withdrawals each month in the Free Funds Withdrawal program, helping day traders to minimize transaction costs.	There are sophisticated MT4 and MT5 charting platforms for advanced day traders, featuring a huge selection of indicators, drawing tools, chart types, and analysis features. You get fast execution speeds from 10 milliseconds with no restrictions on strategies, creating a flexible environment for day traders. AAAFx supports a wide range of payment methods with near-instant funding and zero transfer fees, ensuring convenient deposits. Fast and dependable 24/5 support is available following hands-on testing across live chat, telephone and email. The minimum deposit is low and opening an account is fast, taking less than 5 minutes.
Cons
Despite 15+ years in the industry and registering with the Financial Commission, RoboForex is authorized by one ‘Red-Tier’ regulator – the IFSC in Belize, lowering the level of regulatory protections for traders. While RoboForex offers competitive spreads, some of its account types come with high trading commissions up to $20 per lot, trailing the cheapest brokers, such as IC Markets. RoboForex now restricts base currency options to USD and EUR. This limitation may inconvenience day traders preferring to manage their accounts in other currencies, while potentially leading to conversion fees. RoboForex provides a variety of account types, which, while offering flexibility, can be overwhelming for newer traders trying to choose the most suitable option for their trading style. Alternatives, notably eToro, provide a smoother entry into online trading with one retail account. Despite offering a range of platforms, RoboForex still doesn't support the increasingly popular cTrader. This might deter traders who prefer this specific platform for their day trading activities and is available at firms like Fusion Markets.	By discontinuing ActTrader and lacking a proprietary platform, traders are limited to MetaTrader, which is outdated and less ideal for newcomers. You can’t make deposits and manage your AAAFx account through an app, meaning you have to sign in to the website, dampening the mobile trading experience. The selection of currencies is strong but AAAFx lacks depth in its stocks, indices, commodities and cryptos, limiting the range of trading opportunities. There are no proprietary educational tools, relying on ZuluTrade, making AAAFx less attractive to beginners compared to brokers like eToro.

App Review
RoboForex continues to excel with its wide range of iOS and Android-friendly platforms to meet short-term trading needs, including MT4 and MT5. The R StocksTrader app performed particularly well during testing, with a vast selection of stocks and ETFs, portfolio analytics, customizable watchlists, an events tracker, plus a fast and dependable mobile trading environment. The only notable absence in the RoboForex offering is the increasingly popular cTrader app, that’s favored by many day traders.	AAAFx does not offer its own app, but you can trade forex, stocks, indices, commodities and crypto on the MT4 and MT5 platforms. The apps offer a reliable environment for experienced mobile traders with robust charting tools. However, clients of AAAFx can’t manage their accounts, so you still have to log into the client area online to make deposits and withdrawals, making for a less complete mobile trading experience.

Copy Trading Platform
RoboForex’s CopyFX service is designed specifically for currency traders with flexible control over your funds. The ‘Rating’ view provides helpful metrics on master traders, notably profit/loss, maximum drawdown, balance and number of trades spanning time intervals from 1 week to 6 months. That said, the joining process and resources are convoluted, which may confuse newer investors, while the interface trails the smooth user experience provided by category leaders like eToro.	AAAFx offers automated copy trading through ZuluTrade, one of the largest social investment networks globally. More than 90,000 strategy providers can be followed with helpful performance metrics and graphs to help you find a trader that matches your objectives and risk tolerance. However, with no formal vetting process, manually weeding out traders can be time-consuming.

CFD Trading
RoboForex offers a growing suite of over 12,000 CFDs, encompassing forex, stocks, indices, commodities, futures and ETFs. With an initial deposit of $10 and micro lot trading through to very high leverage up to 1:2000, RoboForex caters to a broad range of derivative traders. On the downside, analysis reveals execution speeds of 1-3 seconds, noticeably slower than IC Markets at 0.35 seconds, and suboptimal for fast-paced strategies like scalping.	AAAFx provides CFDs on forex, stocks, indices and cryptocurrencies through the MT4 and MT5 desktop, web and mobile platforms. Leverage up to 1:30 is available in the EU and up to 1:500 for global clients.

Forex Trading
RoboForex offers trading on 30+ currency pairs, trailing category leaders like Pepperstone with its 90+ forex assets. That said, the Prime and ECN accounts feature competitive average spreads of 0.1 pips on the EUR/USD. Additionally, with a minimum investment of $100, traders can utilize the CopyFX system to replicate the strategies of seasoned currency traders.	AAAFx shines for its forex offering with over 70 currency pairs and spreads from 0.1 pips and low commissions from $0.99. Forex traders also get access to MetaTrader 4, alongside impressive execution speeds, a free VPS and zero restrictions on day trading strategies.
