Its custom trading app is impressive! Pcked with tools. Initially, I decided to test it with a small account of $100, and I'm glad I did. Now it's my primary trading engine

Professional support
November 8, 2025

I want to praise their support! One of the best that I have interacted with in the industry. I prefer mail communication since it leaves a track record in case something comes up in the future. Here I like that they answer the question directly. Not just direct you to the help center, the faq, and good luck finding the answer you asked for even when it's a simple one, like what is the leverage… no, they respond to your question directly, make sure you can read more if you are interested and give you direction where to find more info, and in the end ask you if you need something more or any other question arises. In short, very professional, and helpful support

Was nice experience.
November 8, 2025

My own experience has been decent here. Stable and intuitive trading, as long as you know the common MT tools. I've tried the ActivTrader, it looks very good, but I'm just not used to it so went on to use MT either way. But there, the execution iss solid and ther was no hidden fees. Appreciate the spreads too, for stocks especially, I'm trading them more and more now with US market being so fun nowadays.
Customer supporrt is top tier. I didnt get my personal manager, I heard some brokers give that to the clients, but outside of that, all was nice.

There is 1 suitable acc
November 3, 2025

It was only an individual acc, but as far as I know, EU traders have access to a wider range of accs. Anyway, I'm not complaining about it. The conditions are pretty good.

The manual that helped me a lot
November 1, 2025

Decided that it was time to learn some scripting with MT5, so was looking for some books on it... and apparently ActivTrades has a manual on MQL language, at first I was a bit doubtful, but after readign first pages I understood how valuble the book was. Thans to that I alreade learned some concepts, not just declaring simpel variables, but more complicated stuff, like backtesting

It suits them very much
November 1, 2025

Making a partnership with f1 suits activtrades because I think tehy are quick and i rarely get any slippage here. I am also never get any requotes which is very good, if you careful with your trades it will be ok. I just wish they had stuff like market overview each so I can get insights about upcoming chances.,

Joking of course, but still gbp/jpy was my most profitable pair here. Leverage by activtrades is nice and spread is always minimal. I just had to buy this pair again and again since april, its pretty staitght forward. I am using tradingview btw, so nice to use something comfortable and you dont need to switch between platforms.

Suits me well
October 23, 2025

I feeling activetrades is the one for beginners, because I had no problems with the registration and getting a demo account. I asked the customer service for help to navigate inside, they recommended their own education, lots of information there, didn't finish it yet, but already starting to get the concepts behind it. I mean it's free, they don't take money for education.

La sua solida e lunga reputazione
October 18, 2025

Broker fondato nella vicina Svizzera 24 anni fa, per forza è stata la scelta più affidabile rispetto ad altri broker. Lo uso da 3 anni e non ho fatto che migliorare come trader. I webinar in italiano mi hanno aiutato a capire i mercati molto di più di qualunque canale su youtube.

Trading View charts…
October 17, 2025

I guess many traders faced this little issue with their own web platform, and it was with the tradingview chart. Basically, when I open position I do a long position projection or short position projection after which I enter from there. However, the tab where I adjust the lot size wouldn't go away, and I contacted support abt it. Can't recall his name, but he helped me instantly and resolved it, so thanks to him. Apart from that activ trades is one of the best, very reliable, low fees and working withdrawals...

Connected and ready to trade
October 16, 2025

Was doing my analysis on tradingview for long time and finaally it was great to find a broket that allows you to trade where you work just signed up here opened the acc and deposited, then connected to tradingview and its been going pretty well it was a bit unique to see controls in tradingview but I got used to it pretty quickly as well conditions - they are good what I can say spreads are tight and its decent broker so it wasnt even a choice when i was looking for a new broker

Broker that met my expectations
October 7, 2025

In terms of everything, to be honest, even spreads was favourable. Below market average. Platform and other processes speak very loud about broker's quality. My best is been direct connection to tradingview platform, where I used to learn trading and continue learning it.

Why even worrying about reliability, I just picked one of the biggest brokkerages out there and the security is by default at the top because of regulations. As I thought really, the withdrawals here gets completed quickly, but it depends on the withdrawal method chosenn.

Integrates advanced charting
September 30, 2025

Platform usability is an esesntial factor that influences execution quality. ActivTrader's user interface is minimalist, it integrates advanced charting without lag or clutter. All my pending orders always execute at the exact price I set, but I cannot say the same about market orders. In any event, I'm striving to use only limit orders, so it's not a big deal.
