I like to trade with this broker. It attracted me with good spreads on major currency pairs. In addition, I also appreciate their ActiveTtrader web platform. It’s a good combination of convenience and functionality. I mean that it’s an optimal balance. I don’t like when something is sacrificed. This platform doesn’t distract from trading and at the same time I can easily access all the necessary market analysis tools.

Some people have not found their place in life. I believe that you should always be on the lookout. I decided to trade CFDs with ActivTrades. My choice is obvious. I dreamed of trading in the stock market, but trading contracts for differences is easier and more accessible. ActivTrades allows you to trade at home. All you need is the Internet. There are training materials and a demo account that makes it possible to learn how to use it all. I want to open a live trading account soon, but I can't decide on a deposit. How can I best do it? How much do I need to make a deposit for to trade comfortably?
If we talk about the amount you need to start with, they usually say that the amount should not be less than $1000. Probably this sum is necessary for inexperienced traders, but I used to raise account from 30 dollars, sometimes just to help my friends. Of course, I traded in micro lots, but nevertheless. So, if you are able to work out your strategy on a demo account, I think that $500 would be enough for you.

The fact that this broker has been being on the market for more than 20 years makes me think that it's trustworthy enough to start off trading career with it. In addition, I would note that this broker provides traders with its own trading platform, which eases the process of acquaintance with it's conditions and features.

I like trading with Activtrades for the fact that it is an honest and decent broker. I like that all the charges are visible and predictable, there are no unpleasant surprises when you want to withdraw the money from your deposit. It is very important for the overall trust to these guys. I trade for quite a long time and concentrate on trading through mt4, but I am curious to know about Activetrades smart tools. Could anyone tell me which smart tools can be implemented on trading in order to improve trading results?

ActivTrades is a CFD and Forex broker that provides services in the UK, Europe, CIS, Asia and South America. If we talk about trading conditions, they are just great here, low spreads, good leverage. Here there is an opportunity to trade not only currency pairs, but a huge number of instruments: CFDs on shares, ETFs, metals, raw materials and indices. I trade here with the help of Expert Advisors, I am generally a fan of algorithmic trading, because it excludes the possibility of wrong and ill-considered decisions.

I prefer dealing with Forex brokers that take into account traders’ needs. One of the main reasons why I jumped to ActivTrades was the availability of additional tools for technical analysis. The broker has developed several customized indicators and trading algorithms that represent several trading systems. The rest of the conditions are far above average, so I take advantage of online trading with several approaches with ActivTrades. The proprietary trading platform makes the life of a trader easier as it contains necessary functions together with a well thought-out workspace.

This broker carefully treat its traders and it's proved by the fact that there is a pretty low leverage here. The main idea is not to pose traders to high risks, hence there is such solution. However, I believe that it's a bit inconvenient, because there are some traders who are realy passionate about trading with high leverages. There are several account types, to my mind personally, it will only distract traders from their duties, but there are some traders who like this competetive element.

Old and steady.
The broker started its business about 20 years ago and it keeps sticking to the high standards. Trading community is mostly positive about this broker, so, this drives us to the conclusion that working with this broker is absolutely safe. Now it is possible to trade with activetrades using their own platform along with mt lineup which is really great, be it mt4 or mt5, be it mobile version or desktop. As for trading conditions, they are pretty competitive, as the spreads are quite tight. More than that, I'd like to mention their educational center which will be definetely of great use to newbies.

I’m exploring your website with great interest. Some folks recommended me your company. They told me that you have a very rich experience in this sphere. I value experience because I don’t want to lose my money for non-trading reasons. It often happens with young unregulated brokers. I know what I say because I had a gloomy opportunity to lose my money for a reason that had nothing to do with trading. It was pure fraud.
I have nearly made a positive decision about your company but want to make one thing clear. That’s the withdrawal procedure. Can I withdraw money to my Neteller wallet?
Yes, of course, ActivTrades broker provides withdrawals to the Neteller e-wallet, and withdrawals are almost instantaneous.

My main reason to join this broker was their web platform dubbed ActivTrader. It’s very convenient for me. I often use tablets, so I installed this stuff on my gadget. I prefer to trade on the go and the tablet is ideally suited for this.
Now let me tell a couple of words about regulation. Look, it matters nothing for me. I don’t deposit big money and my lots are not big too. So, I’m not afraid to lose and my gut feeling tells me that it’s not a scam.

This broker offers really good trading conditions for classical financial instruments such as currency pairs, metals, etc. I also like their ActiveTrader webtrader. I use this platform on my tablet.
As for downsides, I lack digital coins here. I really hope that the broker will add cryptos soon.

Good Broker !
I can only say that their website is difficult to navigate and find some information! I think they need to improve the Site, to make it more user-friendly.

No problems at all with ActivTrades. I have been trading with them for over three years. There is no dealing desk. Fast execution, very professional.
