Editor’s pick Hands-on review

European brokerage offering access to more than 45 exchanges across around 30 countries. Pricing is commission-based rather than subscription. Real-time quotes are available as per-exchange paid add-ons, while free quotes are typically delayed by 15 minutes. Short selling and derivatives access require an Active, Trader, or Day Trader profile. Certain order types (e.g. trailing stops) are only supported on select venues. U.S. BATS quotes become real-time after executing a U.S. trade and remain active until the end of the following month.
