I will continue to give a one star review for Coinbase because 1. It does not allow me to adjust my TP and SL during a trade and 2. It doesn't allow me to reduce a position during a trade and 3. The broker connection is constantly disconnecting sometimes multiple times daily.

Just one complaint, would like to have the feature of dragging individually st/tp when setting up, and be able adjust mid trade
UI needs some work. Can be buggy. However better than other brokerages.
Need work on the slippage and being able to trade from the charts. Cannot manage position from charting and that's a real negative.
what's wrong is the misrepresentation of bid/ask spread on the coinbase app, costing me thousands of dollars, not too mention the app locked up while trying to sell at a minor loss, instead freezing me out, costing me over $18,000 highly unethical, incredibly unjust - I have two kids under the age of 4, I have tradingview open and sat in terror as coinbase prevented me from closing my position incurring MAJOR damages
Needs to create a more user friendly TP/SL adjustment mechanism. Overall good, but more user friendly flexibility would make it 5 stars.
The stop loss and take profit tab isn't very efficient. When I try to use it.. it makes me take the same amount for both. It would be nice if it was similar to trading view's paper trading stop loss and take profit tabs on the chart, this way you can pick what you want. The sell/short section is also not easy to use. I prefer the one trading view has also. Very easy and fast to use. Thanks for your time.
I am not a fan of the fees in derrivatives, even with VIP.
Coinbase is non-responsive when you have a problem with using your money after trading derivatives, after they are sold. Charts only go back to when the coin was listed on Coinbase. When a particular coin run up, glitches arise. Costs you a lot of money in the long run.
It’s ok, not a lot you can do wit it except for create/close orders and reverse positions, can’t easily change TP/SL which would be the main reason to use it on TradingView.
great to see that Coinbase as joint Tradingview but there are still some bugs that need to be fixed
The ease of use the UI is very friendly & good.
Trade from chart options need to be upgraded--going through Tradingview is better. Fees are too much.
One of the largest crypto platforms in the world and you can't place a bracket order that you can modify order bracket in real time. It's a real easy add as other brokers allow it without issue like OKX. They are adding all these features to Base and the app like prediction markets, but can't update trader usability? Allow for real time TP/SL orders in real time on TradingView and I'll be back. COINBASE, FIX THIS ALREADY!
You guys show random amounts of money being removed from my account. I have an open ticket with you. I'm missing a lot of money on good trades.....!
really needs to add take profit and stop loss at time of buy limits, it would be nice if trailing stops could be added too. if we had these options it would be unmatched. hopefully Kraken does not beat you to it because there features are much better when it comes to limit orders Actually added my want list and it’s been great
The candles are static you can't scroll them back and forth or nothing. It's stuck on the time frame page and that only gives you a certain amount of days and you can't scroll to expose more timeline. This is a review for coinbase advanced with tradingview integration. I stopped using it after that.
It gets the job done but has sooo much room for improvement. Now it may be on Coinbase side but not being able to move a Stop Loss level independently of the TP level is a joke. You have to cancel both contracts and purchase 2 new contracts just to move a stop loss to protect your position. Execution seems painfully slow as well. Also my trades often disappear from the TV chart, though it remains active the interface for my entry, TP and SL levels disappear from the screen which is so annoying. It seems like this is in its infancy and it shows.
Excellent integration with TradingView – clean execution and reliability I’ve been using Coinbase Advanced integrated with TradingView, and the experience has been very solid—especially for spot trading. The direct execution from TradingView charts is smooth and reliable, allowing me to analyze, place orders, and manage positions without switching platforms. Order placement is clean, latency is low, and risk controls (TP/SL) work exactly as expected. This integration is especially strong for traders who value clarity, security, and disciplined execution. Coinbase provides a trustworthy brokerage layer, while TradingView delivers best-in-class charting and analysis—together they form a powerful trading workflow. Overall, a great solution for traders who want professional-grade tools with a clean and stable execution environment. Highly recommended.
The integration with TradingView charts makes it better but I still end up using TV charts for analysis and then doing most of my trades on Coinbase. It can definitely be better.
Coinbase integration has major flaws in trading experience, such as: 1) Time frames of less than 10 seconds just don't work, completely. Which makes scalping just impossible. 2) The order setup is broken on the Coinbase side. If you set TP/SL - you won't be able to move them any way, only to cancel 2.1) And if you cancel the TP/SL - you won't be able to setup a limit strategy again, to sell the same amount for 2 prices (as TP/SL work). Only either to setup the SL or TP, not both simultaneously (f.e. if you decided to move up TP and SL bracket with market movement). 3) Disconnects - known issue. It happens. Sometimes it even breaks the price chart, some Coinbase backend-related problems. In general - TradingView provides much better rich view with way more convenient tools for data analysis and trading strategies, historical tests and "REAL" volumes. While Coinbase interface is just a joke. And it seems like this is "by design", nobody cares about enriched functionality of Coinbase.
It does work but it is I bit finnikie. It disconnects, can’t use on multiple sessions, can’t modify limit orders that have set TP + SL. Also, account information like stats, overview, etc won’t show all details for all assets hold for some reason.
THE BUY SELL BUTTON DOES NOT WORK THE SAME AS THE PAPERTRADING ENTRY ON TOP LEFT CORNER AND PLACE IMMEDIATLY ON MARKET.
