10CFDs Overview
10CFDs is a good solid online brokerage that offers competitive trading terms and an index of over 1000 assets, tradable as CFDs. Although not as big, or as well-known, as some of its competitors, 10CFDs is attracting and retaining a growing number of loyal clients around the world. The brokerage is clearly a contender and is confident that it can deliver a good service to independent traders and investors. The 10CFDs approach to trading is modern and forward thinking and this is reflected across their site.
Trading Platforms
Traders can switch easily between desktop, mobile and MT4 trading platforms and enjoy seamless trading. 10CFDs clearly understands the importance not only of investing in the latest technology, but in ensuring that it is glitch free. Their platforms easily meet trader expectations and offer a high degree of customization and flexibility.
Markets, Assets and Products
10CFDs doesn’t pretend to be a massive financial institution with a definitive asset index. It’s a working brokerage for private investors who want ready access to key assets as CFDs. There are currently over 1,000 global assets to choose from, including stocks, forex, indices, commodities and the latest cryptocurrencies.
Trader Education
10CFDs caters to traders of all experience levels and provides an above average education centre with enough resources to satisfy most needs. New traders can use the videos, eBooks, webinars and tutorials to build solid financial background knowledge and learn key skills. Experienced traders can explore new assets and develop specialist knowledge.
Customer Service and Support
Live support is available 24/6 and is multilingual. The support staff is well trained and helpful and seem to know their way around the trading platforms (unfortunately this is not the case with every online brokerage). Account management also seems to be well organised and effective. 10CFDs handles deposits and withdrawals as efficiently as any online banking service.
Advanced Features
Traders are encouraged to use 10CFDs live feeds, as well as their news and analysis services. The markets data is up to date and directly relevant to CFD trading.
