Just started out trading CFD,s and I am running a demo account on the plus500 platform. This seems easy to use and just wanted to know before I change to "real money" if any users have experience of using this platform. All help appreciated
 
just had a look

spreads much wider than competition..
2 pips on FTSE vs 1 generally
3 on dax vs 1 ditto
2 on EUR vs 1 ditto
4 on GBP vs 2 ditto

looks like a standard MT4 platform

you can do better
 
Yes why start out with these kind of spreads? I would rather use a company like intertrader.com or GKFX, both of these got the MT4 platform, not to forget to mention quite a few others out there.
 
Thanks for thought so far - not sure i understood all the pip stuff ( i really am new to this !)
If I opt for another provider and change from plus500 who would be the best to use ?

PS Someone has just suggested to me that plus500 is a scam - I am presuming it is not ?
 
Just downloaded the trial from intertrader and the interface seems complicated to me - could'nt even find the uk shares market.
Plus500 is very easy to use but still open to other suggestions !!

Well the platform is the same, in MT4 go to View/Market Watch, right click on any price and choose Show All. But I don't know if they got UK shares market. Have a look at intertrader web platform for CFDs or Capitalspreads. The web platform might be more suitable for you.
