CMC Markets Reviews
Good broker overall, but I wish they supported MT5. The spreads are competitive, and the app is easy to use.
3/12/2024I love their trading platform! The minimum deposit is reasonable, and withdrawals are processed within 24 hours. Excellent for forex trading!
2/20/2024Their lack of MT5 support is frustrating, and the spreads during high volatility are wider than expected. Not ideal for day trading.
1/15/2024The sign-up process was smooth, and the demo account helped me learn. However, the leverage options could be better, and cashback offers are limited.
4/10/2024Great broker for forex and indices. The trading app is fantastic, and I enjoy the rebates they offer, but the withdrawal time could be faster.
