Comment by Reviewer
"StormGain is a good option for day traders who want to focus on digital assets because it offers 60+ crypto futures with high leverage as well as DeFi functions including mining and staking. However, the usual lack of regulation raises concerns about safety so this is riskier than crypto brokers. " "Libertex will appeal to both beginner and experienced traders thanks to its easy-to-use platform and low fees. The brand is also a good pick for share dealing with commission-free stock investing."

CFD Trading
CFD trading not offered Libertex's list of CFDs covers a decent range of tradeable underlying assets, but there isn't much depth with only around 250 in total. Leverage up to 1:30 for retail clients is available in accordance with CySEC regulations, and traders can choose between three excellent trading platforms. Best of all are the tight spreads available on all markets and the zero commissions on investments in stocks.
