Comment by Reviewer
"After exploring the broker, I think Tradeview is a good choice for experienced traders looking for a no-frills brokerage service with rapid ECN execution, tight spreads and feature-rich software. Conversely, with the lack of top-tier regulation and educational materials, beginners may want to look elsewhere."	"Qtrade is a good match for Canadian traders who are looking for a reputable and regulated broker to make longer-term investments as well as leveraged trades."
Pros
The main thing that stands out for me is the wide range of platforms available at Tradeview, including the MetaTrader terminals, cTrader and Currenex, plus several software options for the broker’s real stocks trading service Through STP/ECN execution, the broker is able to achieve raw pricing on popular assets. Tradeview also charges very low commissions from $2.50 per lot per side My tests uncovered a strong range of 60+ currency pairs, which is above the industry average and should allow serious forex traders to explore plenty of opportunities I found a decent range of payment methods available at Tradeview, with no deposit fees and same-day processing times	One of the best investment platforms on offer in Canada Easy to use and award winning platform and customer experience Good range of US and Canadian stocks as well as funds, ETFs and other assets Offers a range of accounts to suit standard investments or various types of pension Simple investor/member login process Trailing stop loss risk management tool 100+ commission-free ETFs No deposit or withdrawal fees
Cons
A key drawback for me is the lack of top-tier regulatory oversight. The broker’s offshore regulation with CIMA may mean that traders won’t receive robust fund protection measures Compared to other brokers, I find the educational materials at Tradeview a little underwhelming. For example, it would be nice to see some webinars, ebooks or forex trading courses available for beginners I was a little disappointed to find a $35 fee for bank wire withdrawals and a 1-1.5% fee for Skrill and Neteller	Transfer out fee CAD to USD exchange charge Commissions of $8.75 per equity can stack up Limited funding options and no credit/debit card deposits Only available to residents of Canada. So if you are residents of Dubai, the UK or Lebanon, you will not be eligible

I’m happy with Tradeview’s strong range of 60+ currency pairs spanning majors, minors and exotics with competitive spreads from 0 pips in the $1000 ILC account. Traders can choose from several platforms, but I was particularly impressed with the feature-rich Currenex platform which is designed specifically for currency trading.	Forex trading not offered

I found 5 crypto products at Tradeview: BTCUSD, ETHUSD, LTCUSD, XRPUSD and BTCJPY. Whilst this isn’t the widest range, beginners should have enough opportunities to explore the market. Plus, with STP/ECN execution, traders should be able to access relatively competitive prices.	Crypto trading not offered
