Too slow to be good. I never wrote negative reviews about brokers before but their email response is what drives me crazy! They NEVER answer the same day! As a customer and money-giver, I hate this!!! Issues must be solved at a flashlight speed! Don’t bother communicating to this broker, if you don’t have a couple of days to waste.

it was not easy to open an account - it took a huge amount of documents and time to confirm them
