Best trading platform in term of execution and market updates.

It offers everything I need

21st October 2024

I find the platform easy to use and it has everything you need. I have created my own Investment Plan and I invest in stocks. Not much of a risk taker myself. I have spoken to the account managers a few times too. They are super helpful and there to answer any questions you have. The platform has gotten better over the years and has definitely improved. Overall it offers everything I need.

Plus, the educational resources are super helpful for improving my trading skills. Overall, I highly recommend XTB for anyone looking to trade!

This Broker has open capital in Warsow Stock Exchange. There are few Brokers that show their own accounts like XTB. Apart from that, the Trading platform is amazingly simple and you can buy either stock or just make trading with cfds. A Really good example for the industry.

I think is one of the best brokers on the market, Renato spent 1hours with helping me to set up my account. I was expecting something like ” now you must deposit..” nothing..I did try several brokers, all of them were ready to push me to deposit money, but not XTB.Definitely recommend it!!

I started trading with Xtb in 2016 and 4 years later having used the Xtb Pro software for all this time I can say Xtb are the best broker I have used. I trade Forex personally and their spreads and commissions on the Pro platform are some of the lowest in the industry that I have seen.

Customer service is a 5/5 because they are easy to reach by phone or by email and they do respond quickly and clearly.

The Xtb Pro platform is very clean and enjoyable to use, I use both the platform on my laptop and the mobile version and both work perfectly without any issues.

You can also withdraw your money anytime you wish without charge(if the withdrawal amount is above £60) and it is usually in your bank account the same day or the next at the latest.

Would highly recommend.

I initially traded cryptocurrency with XTB and lost money, not because of XTB but because I wasn’t clued up on cryptocurrency. Reed Sayer from XTB has since given me lots of useful guidance. Due to my experience of cryptocurrency that is something I will never trade in again, but I am now trading forex. Reed has provided me with lots of guidance, given me links to useful information and helped me tremendously to gain knowledge of the platform and of forex in general. He is always helpful. I would highly recommend XTB as a broker. I’m sure all the account managers are helpful, but my experience is with Reed and I am very impressed.

Came across XTB late 2016 and have been using them as my primary broker for the past 8 months or so. Probably their best feature is the platform itself, as itÔÇÖs got so many decent features and is always reliable. They arenÔÇÖt the cheapest broker but I donÔÇÖt mind paying slightly higher spreads for the quality of service and execution. The whatsapp group IÔÇÖm in has saved my bacon a fair few times as well as they keep you up to date with data reports etc and they come straight to my phone. Would very happily recommend

Tried XTB after a bad experience with another provider – spoke to an employee on the phone who provided me with a lot of useful information plus an offer (alerts service) when opening my account. In my previous experience I had no one to call and emails werenÔÇÖt responded to in a timely manner.

Whole from call to trading process was handled professionally plus I was invited into their offices in London for one on one training and other events.

All in all, good trading conditions and would recommend XTB again.

My first encounter with XTB was at a forex show in Hammersmith last year and honestly they were the best stall I went to. They were really friendly and approachable and they invited me to come to their office for the intro to trading course. I went to their office in Canary Wharf and learnt quite a lot from Akshay and Andre who delivered the presentation fantastically although I only came to the platform demo! View from the building wasn’t half bad either!

I am currently using xstation which is honestly the best platform I’ve used in my 18 years of trading compared to the crap you find elsewhere!

Overall the service is great! My account manager Reed always hooks me with freebies such as whatsapp alerts from one of their market analysts “DC”. Spreads are fairly decent and overall I’m happy trading here. Highly recommend them

Went to their offices for the intro to trading course and it was really well run by David, their analyst. He showed me technical analysis as well as a few basics. Felt they would push the boat out for me, even though i am a small time trader. happy so far.

Being new to trading and having a bad experience with Pluss500 I decided it was time to find a new broker. I was very pleased that you can actually visit their offices in Canary Wharf for the variety of free sessions that they offer, both at the basic and intermediate level. I booked myself an introduction session and I was really impressed by Andre and AkshayÔÇÖs patience and level of expertise. I was able to walk away with enough knowledge to put my trading into Practice. What I was most impressed with however was that you can actually open a live account with them after with no obligations to start trading straight away because even after the session I wasnÔÇÖt that comfortable using real money, I knew itÔÇÖll probably take another couple weeks of practice. What I did get though when I opened live was access to a senior account manager, Nathan who was able to help me with my trading plan. Andre was also kind enough to give me a non expiry demo account with one week of WhatsApp alerts from their market analyst David. Their pricing is very good, I canÔÇÖt give 5 stars because I believe a brokers pricing could never be perfect but overall a very good broker and I would recommend anyone to trade with them, especially if you are new to trading. They take care of their clients, well so far they have lol

Been trading with XTB since 2016. Honestly think they are one of the best brokers around and IÔÇÖve been with a few. Spreads are tight and platform is superb. Best thing is the customer service, which is available 24hrs a day and I am always welcome to go to their offices in Canary Wharf, which I did last night for a TA course. Only downside I would say is their spread on some markets in out of hours can be a little wide. But they do quote on weekends which is a plus. So I would say 5 stars.

Summary

XTB, are a decent all-round trading platform and a good choice for most small-to-medium sized CFD traders. They are publically listed in Poland and offer, competitive spreads on a fairly wide range of markets.

The key things to focus on when considering trading with XTB are:

  1. They have their own proprietary trading platform. When I interviewed Omar Arnaout, the XTB CEO Omar Arnout, he said “I’m really proud of our platform and honestly believe it’s one of the best in the market.” Rightly so.
  2. They really push client education, XTB won “Best Trading Platform Education” in our 2023 awards (although they didn’t show up to collect the trophy, they never do). You can read their Q&A on forex education here.
  3. Customer service is paramount. Omar said that “first and foremost is the customer service”. I really agree with this as I think it’s important to have a few different trading accounts (diversify, diversify, diversify) and you’ll trade more with the broker that treats you best.

Overall, XTB, is a well-established CFD trading platform with some nice added value that is suitable for most traders.
