CFDs and leveraged forex are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. Most retail accounts lose money when trading CFDs. Consider whether you understand how these products work and whether you can afford the high risk of losing your money.
A browser-based charting platform with a large community; a growing number of brokers let you trade directly from its charts.
TradingView began as a charting and social platform and now connects to brokers so that orders can be placed from the chart. Its strengths are the charts themselves, the Pine Script language for custom indicators and strategies, and the size of its community.
Who it suits
Chart-first traders who already use TradingView for analysis. Automated execution is more limited than on MetaTrader or cTrader, and not every instrument a broker offers is available through the integration.
What to check with a broker
Confirm that the integration is available for the entity that serves your country, and which account type it connects to.
Dossier Score, entity and regulator are shown for the company that would serve your country. Buttons marked “Affiliate link” may earn us a commission. Unmarked buttons go to the broker's own site and earn us nothing.
