Good choice for me
January 15, 2026

There are a few brokers that could boast of such a wide variety of services in the EU region. Ya know, most brokers have limited benefits, so stumbling upon Activtrades was like a gulp of fresh air because they offer much more than you could imagine. U want a modern platform? Here you go, ActivTrader with tradingview's user interface, u want to know more about markets? There you go, market analytics and online webinars are in your hands. U want to have fast support? Any time I reach out to them, they always answer me in a few minutes. U want to have fast deposits and withdrawals? E-wallets can be handy here. I could continue further and further. I'd especially like to highlight their background, they've been in the bizz for more than 25 years, big numbers, aren't they? So yeah, I'm satisfied with my choice. :)

Deposit
January 13, 2026

Making a deposit using just a crypto wallet was something new for me. Just copy and paste address and money is lands on time.

Impressed by MT5
January 8, 2026

They offer tradingview too, but I just got used to making my research and my trades at one place. I think it's a nice platformn overall, and they offer many and one is not better than the other, it's just how you specifially like it. I enjoy the functionality of mt5, and I enjoy the costs by activtrades on this platform.

Tight trading fees
January 6, 2026

I traded both during high and low volatility for most major forex currencies. Honestly, I'm not afraid to trade chaotic charts as I believe in my strategy and expertise. However, the only thing that can ruin my day is huge spreads or commissions. That's why I chose to stay with activtrades in the end. The fees are stable, and don't widen much even when the cash flow is insane. Like the spreads stay below 1 pips, whereas commissions are zero. Have Allowing me to trade how I really want to.

Market buzz

If you know how to interpret what's going on around the market, what announcements, why - consider yourself a prudent trader. The market buzz offered here is a nice tool. Been handy!

Auszahlungen sind das Wichtigste

Und bei ActivTrades hatte ich nie Probleme. Man verifiziert sein Konto, und sie verlangen nichts zusätzlich, und keine einzige Überweisung wurde verzögert

From access to the most powerful trading platforms and reasonable spreads to webinars and Italian support. At last I can learn and communicate without trying the best to pronounce a single English word: XDD Next month will have 2 year anniversary with activtrades, never let me down in these years.

Opened an account with their activtrader platform. To be honest tho, I don't think it's bad at all. Still, it's not comparable to tradingview because I just think it's more pleasing to work in and look at. But still I think their own prop platform can give a fair fight to MT5 even, but tastes differ so I won't be saying one is better than the other.
Just offering tradingview itself is a great feat by activtrades, I think you can't find anywhere better, well at least when it's about cost/quality ratio.

Pretty educated
December 24, 2025

3 months how I started somehow my trading endeavor, and the pick was activtrades. TBH It wasn't a calculated decision with lots of prior reading and going through reviews and so on. It was, a move of a complete dummy who knew nothing and just wanted to make money hahah yep, just to make money quickly and get out. Just clicked on these webinars, was written Paul Wallace, kinda big brain in trading, watched the stuff, managed to understand NOTHING hahahah then stopped, googled terminology, got back, contunued wathcing, then repeated, for several days. In parallel went to toher websites to get the meaning of some words. But the more I stayed on the activtrades website, the deeper i felt being engaged there, slowly grew my apparatus, started demo trades, just copied what I'd leatn before from seminars and webinars, started to feel less dummy hahaha And you know what... I liked the experience, they changed me through this education stuff. If they impacted my previously unimpacted brain, i imagine they're doing great for other clients.even more. And I am still in the process of educating myself, and now thinking of not how to make quick money but how to stay disciplined and think strategically

Crypto payment
December 17, 2025

I was aghast to seeing a crypto payment there, anyway, gave it a try and it really worked, quite unusual for a broker that is headquartered in the UK. xD

Excellent service
December 15, 2025

The trading conditions are okay. Nothing flashy, but nothing short of what a trader needs to trade profably. I started slowly here, deposited $200 to check how everything works, chatted with support, made a withdrawal, and tested various engines. All went well, the support surprised me how knowledgeable they are about their platform and about trading in general.

It's a legitimate broker
December 14, 2025

I made sure that I doubt that in the title... because I think legitimacy comes first, no matter what the condiitons are, because if you have doubts about your money being safe- then forget it, nothing would make you trade. In case of activtrades, 2 decades in the market and multiple regulations are the foundation of their credibility.

Few remarks about the education,. It's one of the best here. Mr Maxwell and Paul Wallace are two geniouses in their sphere, and I have ever seen a webinar on SMC, they dont miss any trends and always ready to share some information, I guess a huge part of my trading result I owe it to them.

But just outside this they dont make any innovation I want to see some new promos and campaings they have, its gonna be great, like swap free for a month or something haha.

Just better than everybody else
December 12, 2025

Activtrades could do what others couldn't, keeping a great and credible service, under the convenient trading environment. I mean for day trading, super effective! Spread are lower than 1 pip for fx majors and they don't charge any commission, regardless of assets I trade. By the way, they've done a pretty good job to give an access to all kind of cfds, even etf and crypto.
With platform and payment, I can just keep silent! Versatile, fast, stable… Hard to beat these qualities. Just using an opportunity to appreciate their solid service.

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.
