In short you have to look for the broker which is being regulated by local authorities like FINMA in Switzerland, FSA in Denmark, AMF in France, CNWV in Spain,FMA in Austria, MFSA in Malta, CySEC in Cyprus etc. Similarly if a broker needs to undertake financial services in the UK, it has to be authorized by FCA.

It’s crazy how some brokers take only 2 or 3 days to process withdrawals while some can take a whole week. Better obviously to use ones that are speedier in this regard, fxview and XTB imo are fast when it comes to withdrawals.

This is the first thing that every professional is recommending me, are there specific regulations for Europe I need to keep in mind?
The biggest ones are ESMA in Europe. Cysec is regulated under ESMA as far as I know.
But you always need to make sure that the broker who's offering accounts under EU-regulation also must give you a proper account then. The broker is not allowed to give you an account with T&C's out of Europe. A lot of offshore and ASIC brokers are known for giving accounts that are not regulated in Europe, although on their pages it is said they also have a Cysec license. How do you know that? Just have a look on the registration-link; it usually contains something like '.eu', 'com/eu', '.eu.xyz.com'.
patience is the key

Apart from the regulations and withdrawal, you should also check out transaction costs and execution speed when you are choosing a platform. Trying the demo account of a broker before you sign up for a real account might also be a good idea.

Always go with a broker that gives you the option of a free demo account. This will not only give you exposure to the forex market (if you are starting anew) but will make you familiar with the broker and its platform.
Demo accounts do tell a lot about a broker. I spent 4 months on Schwab before going live with them. Found their customer service and order execution quite all right. Never ever choose a broker before practicing on them with virtual money.

Easy deposits and withdrawals are an important part of my trading. I feel so restless when I can withdraw my money quickly.

Different funding and withdrawal methods should also be taken into consideration. For instance not all brokers accept crypto, or credit cards.

People also know that third parties sometimes cause the delay, like your concerned bank. From broker’s end processing happens very fast. But why is this such a big issue. If you are using a regulated licensed broker, like the one in question here pepperstone or fxview, you can be rest assured.

1 Regulation
2 Trading conditions
3 Online reviews
I look for all these things while choosing a broker.
