The worst broker on the planet or competing for that place, flash/web-based platform with outages and non-realtime quotes, highest spreads around and margin policy set out to make positions to stoploss , crazy high leverage built for one purpose to sap out money from whoever puts them there.
Next nice thing is that if you tell any other broker that you've used etoro, they start treating you like moron and repeat basic facts forever ....
Not just me would reccommend to stay out of this and look for stable platforms like MT4 and lower leverage :-)

random disconnects and downtime is a huge turnoff. Charting options and technical analysis are a joke at best--basically nonexistant. Leverage is sky high.

Use eToro if you have money to burn, or if you really want firsthand experience in bankruptcy court.

Platform is flashy and looks nice, but completely unusable for the technical or experienced trader.

I have to agree. Very fancy flash platform impressed me until I couldn't find decent chart options or any ability to analyse the data better.

You can only really use it to chat to other players real time - which is different.

First and foremost I would like to thank you for taking an interest in eToro and use this opportunity to address some of the issues that rose in the previous comments.
Our trading platform is designed in an easy-to-use way but has all the features an experienced trader is looking for.

In addition to the online- flash version (Webtrader) you can find downloadable software that contains advanced charts with many different Indicators and studies. Regarding leverage - eToro is one of the only platforms that offer such a wide range of leverages. Starting from 1x5 and up to 1x400 on currency trading and traders can choose a different leverage on each position they open.

As mentioned here above, we have unique features in the community aspect (like the chat and a few other new features that will be released soon ) that make the trading experience a new and exciting world!

If you have any doubts, questions or suggestions, please contact Support@eToro.com and we will do our best to assist you.

Best regards and successful trading,
Valeria - eToro

I am sorry, but I had to put zero to all scores. I was thinking of puting higher number to Customer service, but I just couldn't. I used it for a few weeks. Stay away, people. You never know when it will have gliches. Unability to log-in, live open trades dissapearing just to re-appear some time later, sometimes not being able to close/modify orders, charting is a disaster compared to MT4 and so is automaticion of things. Spread is big. The only thing that I like is nice looking enviroment.

Stay cool no matter the weather!

They say that you can start form 1x5.. yes, until you want to trade seriously mean not few dollars. Good social network, chat, etc. .. but for really trading not a good option for me.

eating pips!
