Für mich waren die Vibes beim Handeln hier gut, mit minimaler Slippage und zuverlässiger Auftragsausführung.

It was understandable what to do from the beginning. Knowing that this broker has direct access to Metatrader and trading view platform, at the same time, being regulated, tbh, it was an easy decision to make. I'm glad that they didn't try to overcomplicate things and offered only one account with tight spreads, cool analytics and even no swaps, after the confirm

Einfach gesagt
May 1, 2025

ActivTrades hat mich mit der Qualität seiner Services überrascht. Ich hatte wieder einen Broker wie all die anderen erwartet, aber sie sind auf einem absolut anderen Level. Ich weiß gar nicht, was vorher los war, oder warum ich nicht schon früher zu ihnen gewechselt bin. Aber ich muss sagen, dass die Online-Webinare manchmal etwas schwer zu verstehen sind, sie müssten alles auf einfache Weise erklären, wenn wir etwas nicht verstehen.

Letteralmente attivi in tutto
April 19, 2025

Activtrades è stata veramente presente in tutte le mie operazioni di trading, non si è limitata a offrirmi qualcosa per poi sparire. Il team di assistenza era sempre disponibile a risolvere qualsiasi problema, bello sapere che, in caso di emergenza, avevo le spalle coperte :) I pagamenti puntuali e senza errori sono un altro punto a favore.

Ich liiiebe die Services
April 11, 2025

ActivTrades hat sich einen soliden Ruf in der Branche aufgebaut. Es ist gut reguliert und viele Trader vertrauen dem Anbieter. Ich habe ihre Plattform als verlässlich erlebt, mit starken
Risikomanagement-Tools. Der Kundensupport ist professionell und die Auswahl der Trading-Instrumente ist gut. Ich erkenne einen Broker, den jeder in Erwägung sollte, der nach einer vertrauenswürdigen Option sucht.

The platform is stable, order execution is fast, and spreads are fair. Support is responsive and actually helpful, which isn't always the case with brokers. Withdrawals process without hassle, and the range of trading instruments keeps things interesting. The educational resources are a nice touch too.

A full package
March 24, 2025

Starting with education materials and ending smart tools in the trading platform added by the broker, it's a full package. I am glad to analyze charts in the tradingview layout as well as take advantage of the cryptocurrency trading with the broker. The funding process is transparent with a small fee for depositing with a credit card. But it does not come as a surprise as all terms and conditions are clearly put on a public spot.

Not fully sold
March 17, 2025

The leverage is quite a bit lower than with other brokers, if you are outside of EU just 200 as a max, bit of an insult, especially considering this platform is Great for scalping, with the accs and the platform. Activtrader even has Tradingview. But leverage should be higher to take advantage of it all. Many assets have 50x as a top...
I think they'll improve on this though.

Analytics and insights
March 14, 2025

Analytics of activtrades is on a nother level i think. I have never seen such a professional approach to the analytics at any forex broker I have traded with. It goes without saying that I take the trading ideas for the day from there very often, almost every day.

You have to understand that this type of analytics cost them money to create and they provide it for free to everybody. Big props for that!

The price of accounts make sense
March 13, 2025

ActivTrades user-friendly platform comes solid you get to enjoy decent execution speeds. Although the spreads are competitive, the commission structure and fees starts to make sense over time, especially if you trade frequent. While the broker provides useful educational tools, the cost factor might be a drawback for those on a budget. Still, for traders who prioritize a stable platform and solid support, it's a good option.

ActivTrades individual account
March 11, 2025

Of course, when I joined ActivTrades broker I knew nothing about trading. The support team recommended me to try a demo account to adapt to the platform and conditions on the market.
It was useful and found out all the highlights and recently I started trading on an individual account. Negative balance protection makes me feel relieved cuz I worry I can lose it all

Can't beat the safety
February 11, 2025

I've met more modern brokers that gave me more unique tools, like AI or just a platform that looked slick and impressive. But they, all of them, had no regulations at all. I wonder if there is a connection.
On the other hand, Activtrades its not the best in terms of costs, but it has all the world governments behind it. FCA, SCB, CMVM, BACEN, CVM, you name it.
In the end, I chose the best of both worlds, and my thinking is like this: I hold 70-80% of my trading cash with Activtrades, but have 20-30% with others just to test some tools and see how good they are atm.

Meeting my goals
February 5, 2025

When Ur goal is to have a 20% boost on a real account, this is motivating, what do U think? When it really happens after serial trading with Bitcoin and Doge, correctly spotting their price trends due to penetrating analysis - it's worth a lot. My trading with this broker has been leading me to this goal! Well done on both ends.

Smooth and quick withdrawals
January 14, 2025

I've been trading with ActivTrades for a while, and one thing that I seriously consider when choosing a platform is how they process withdrawals. ActivTrades excels in this regard!
Deposits are processed instantly, and withdrawals are processed faster than I expected. Apparently, their payment system is quite good. Also, it is good to know they are keeping clients' funds in a segregated account.
I've dealt with brokers that had delayed payments before, so this efficiency is refreshing.

The variety is weird with this one
January 10, 2025

The platform variety is definitely there, its prob the best broker (mby second best?) with that. Quality of execution on short timeframes is top-notch, whenever I am locked-in and try to scalp something, this feels amazing. The account variety is not there though. There is no specific account for scalping (at least, I haven't found one). They should create one, because of how good it is in general here. I'm sure more algo traders would flock, because right now, when I'm scalping by hand, its amazing, but with bots, I woulndn't do it.

Only one trustworthy
September 4, 2024

This is the only broker that I can 100% trust that its not scamming me. I trade with 3 of them and 2 honestly have a bit better conditions, but there are some weird trades and weird order executions sometimes. With Activtrades, there's nothing like that, the bugs not present, just works. This is the oldest brokers also from the ones I trade, others are 3-5 years, so maybe they are still figuring it out.
70% of my cash for trading is stored here, others are 20% and 10%, because I can't trust them to not dissappear on me one day. 20-year history isn't built easily.

Situation is not bad here
August 23, 2024

The leverage is low compared to brokers i know, but it's fine, it's less yolo, more stable. I feel like I can grow more stable here, because they also provide so many signals and analytical tools. A lot more information to work with than I had before with just me and the browser. About 30% of the trades I take now I simply wouldn't see before.

Fan of tradingview
August 21, 2024

Integrated TV into their ActivTrader platform is a real deal for me, because it's my favorite type of charting, one of the most intuitive ones.
I tried Metatrader of both versions, but Tradingview has more tools and their placement is more habitual for my hands, so to speak. I even tried to track how much time I spend on analysis of a typical EUR/USD pair, when I need to apply indicators, check some news and place the order.
It's about 2-3 minutes in TV and 5-6 on MT...
Idk guys, but I am a real fan of Tradingviw. Plus, their ativtrades is functional enough.
