Simply a great platform

5
Liquidity and trading is always excellent, even in fast markets. Dealing costs are reasonable, and money transfers in, and importantly out too, are effected within minutes. The dealing platforms are intuitive and easy to use, as no they are free of no-use frills. I have used a number of dealing platforms over the years for share dealing, CFD trading and spread betting - IG’s has been the best I have used. Reviewed on: 22nd April 2025
