✔️ Information reviewed and updated in April 2024 by Pedro Martínez González
Trading platforms have become a very important tool, both for experienced traders and for traders who are just starting out. Therefore, we will explain some basic concepts so that you understand more the function that an investment platform really fulfills.
What is a trading / investment platform?
The platforms for investing (either in Forex or CFDs, indices, etc.) provide their services to individuals all over the world. Explained in simple words: the platforms allow traders to participate in the financial markets at any time, and allow them to be aware of the most recent updates in the market.
It allows both brokers and investors to operate without problems. Usually the platforms can be web, that is, one can access from the internet, or they can also be downloadable platforms, where it is necessary to download and install the platform before using it.
How do I know if my platform is good?
Here are some data to identify a good platform:
- The platform should be able to let you in and out of the market, without lag, lag or delay.
- As a trader it is necessary that you can operate through the platform in a simple way, although this may be a matter of training and getting used to the platform
- Whether you use the platform at home or on a laptop away from home, it is necessary that the platform allows you to do it from wherever you want and at any time
- A good platform should offer different functions and "addons" (like the option to add indicators, charts, and more)
- A good investment platform will allow you to have access to the platform every day, at any time
- A platform must allow you to carry out multiple transactions, even when it has a lot of web traffic, it is no excuse
- For newbies, the platform should have an interface that is user-friendly, easy to understand
- This point also goes for newbies: The platform must allow entering the market with small amounts of money
Test your platform
Once you have chosen a platform, testing it and its different options and applications is of crucial importance, all this, before using a real account, the best option is to do all kinds of tests with a DEMO ACCOUNT.
What is the best platform?
There is no perfect platform, and there are several factors, we believe that it depends on the mode and strategies of each trader. In our opinion, the most popular, and with the greatest amount of support and resources to learn on the internet, is the MT4 (MetaTrader 4).
Some other platforms widely used by traders are: NinjaTrader, Tradestation, Multicharts, MetaTrader 5, cTrader and ProTrader, among others.
It should be noted that in some cases, the broker has its own platform.

HELLO
YOU CAN GIVE ME REFERENCES FROM FINAMEX CASA DE BOLSA
THANK YOU
DAVID
Hi David, thanks for writing, we are working on a review about FINAMEX Casa de Bolsa in Mexico that will be ready soon.
Greetings.
My broker or manager who says his name is HUGO together with his accomplices who say they are called Diana {[email protected]} and Luissa from CTXPRIME have left me homeless and lifeless by blatantly scamming me. They took advantage of my disability and their infinity of promises and lies, I have nothing to eat, they took everything from me, 60.300 euros and I am unable to work because CTXPRIME and his accomplices have wanted it that way.
Hello Rafael, it is yet another injustice of these SCAMMERS, thank you for sharing your experience with CTX Prime and I am sorry that it was so bad. The CNMV, (Spanish financial regulator), has warned and denounced CTX Prime for carrying out fraudulent activities, it is not advisable to invest money in a broker that is not REGULATED. See CNMV link

Hello, I would like to know how Etoro is, I saw a question asked in 2018, but it is the only one that has not been answered.
I appreciate the answer
Hello, good afternoon I have a question regarding vetorobank withdrawals, in my session he only asks me to fill in to make the withdrawal, without having to print, fill in and sign and scan, resending the document again, as I did in my registration, and how long does it take for them to hit my account?
Thank you very much
Hello Constantino, we recommend you leave your comment in the section on Vetorobank.

Greetings, just to also report to TeadeGF, it is a scam company, with 250 dollars and if the first strategy was to raise the account to 1000 euros, promising that they would help me earn more, it is supposed that by depositing 250 for being a newbie it will help to earn small amounts but the only thing they did was call and call to put in the 1000 euros, by not doing so they no longer wanted to call me and the two strategies they gave me were losers, when they wanted to withdraw my 200 dollars they said that I could not withdraw because I could only withdraw percentage of movements by volume, I do not know what that is but in the end they never returned them to me, I found out that their platform is a demo platform, but they make it pass as a real platform, the money they put is false that is why they say 100% bonuses of what you deposit and they put a clause that if you lose due to their strategies they get the money back, that's why they can do it because there is no real money, once they manage to make you deposit mile What they do is that the platform is designed to make you lose until you have no money to withdraw because you do not have volume, it is a big scam.
Hi Carlos, we recommend you leave your comments in this TradeGF analysis.

Something very similar is happening to me with ALVEXO. Now I am losing my money and I cannot even invest the free margin, it appears to me: “failed action”. Could it be that today Saturday you can not operate?
Please tell me if I can get my money back or even the value that appears as the balance in the account. And what the process would be like.
Thank you very much a hug.
Hi Jeanenette, thank you for sharing your experience with Alvexo. This broker is not to be trusted, it is a SCAM, cancel everything and rescue your money, I don't think they will return it but you always have the option to rescue through our chat.

Good afternoon, do you know something about this web trading: Topinvestus status.topinvestus .co / since I think it is a full-blown scam since they do not answer calls (phone ++ 442037691054) and the website does not support support for Customer Support.
That is why I looked at the web while I was talking to them on the phone but they gave me a record from another company that it was official and I fell on all fours.
Behind there is a certain Ana brent with email [email protected] and fake direct phone +447448208224 and the official email compliance @ topinvestus .com, support @ topinvestus .com, located at Beachmont Kingstown St. Vincent and the Grenadines.
Hello Ester, here you can read our analysis on Topinvestus.

Best regard. I would like to know if you have any reference to an investment platform called "BITCOINS ANALYTICA" and what opinion does it deserve because they offer very good options operating with Crypto Robots. Stay tuned to your comments. Thank you.
Hello Carlos, Bitcoin Analytica, if it is the website that we believe, it is a website that directs to another broker, look carefully if there is a broker or company where they ask you to deposit money, we believe that it is not Bitcoins Analytica or Crypto Robors, verify it please and tell us.
Greetings.
