VERY GOOD Stock Broker especially in short seller and their 24/7 support its priceless I left my review in may when I first try its out which I found very friendly, because you can Open both your TZ Platform and Tradingview Live and trade them Live at the same time because Trading view have better charting and more technically analytics and longer data analysis than Trade Zero Platform, which in combination is a game changer But Trade view Lack speed Execution's and Exist Position which in severely occasion I have try Long & Short position in the open after -+9;30 at tradingview I will click buy OR Short IN 5 seconds no respond I click again 5 time still no respond two minute later I will start healing click sound Opening six buying position AT once when the market have already move then you will forces to buying it at the top which I found it very frustrating, Even to Exist an open position many occasion the tradingview platform will POP up something went wrong you can not exist Some time its took up to 30 minute before its will allow you to close the position, how can someone trade successful in that kind of environment If this can be happing in Paper Trading how much more in a live Market which is extremely Volatile. which in turn in Trade Zero you can use hotkey to open and Close any Position in a second. In conclusion what I found out lately that Tradezeo Have Change , from using Trade view Live and Trade Zero Platform side by side which is perfect during trading , by making it a compulsory to use only one Platform at a time, and its not that easy to switch between the two in a flip of a second its take you two minute to login inn into Trade Zero Trade view Live Account because of the MFA Code fluctuations, because of this I find its Useless to Use TradeView Live Trade Zero, Its better I keep enjoying my paper Trading Trading view Subscriptions.

Trade zero opens unauthorised positions in your account. They tamper with it causing frequent log outs even with PRO paid version. Frequently, I had an backdated position opened despite earlier confirmed cancellation. Then it shows an order with limit you never placed, writing 'Original Order Not Existent.' Stay away from those criminals! While they already treat my account as their own I will let them keep rest of the money too. People of Bahamas...

Their order execution time is impeccable. Would definitely refer to all my friends.

I keep getting logged off from Trading veiw everytime Iog into the Free TradeZero Portal, Its very inconvinient to have this happen all the time in order to be able to get locates. Is there a way to fix this?

Love it! Rather rudimental free platform (awkwardly does not have VWAP among the indicators, but has everything else), but fast and precise executions. Very responsive Customer Service.

Their support is very responsive. I have never waited more than 5 minutes and they're pretty open about expected wait times. The mobile app is somewhat limited (ie rudimentary). Their web tradefree is similar. They also have tz1 that's in beta and is better (but isn't adaptive for mobile). And you can also connect with Tradingview. As for Commissions and fees, I don't have any complaints (I went into this eyes open, having done my research. IBKR was maybe ranked slightly better in commissions or fees but if their service could be ranked in the negatives I would).

If you like fees and commission this is your broker. Plus you have to pay to use the platform. Wich is pretty basic and not to user friendly. Need to log back in multiple time during the day, so day trader stay away if you need to trade fast

AivarRiis

Good, simple, reliable. All the tools you need, plus a great mobile app.

ease of money in and out, and the pro platform

Maedz

Customer service is brilliant - they just need more tools but i guess you have to use the pro version for that.

I’ve been using TradeZero and I absolutely love it! The platform is fast, reliable, and perfect for active traders, especially those into short selling. The zero-commission structure is great, and the locate tool for hard-to-borrow stocks is a game changer. The desktop platform feels professional, with solid charting and hotkeys. Definitely one of the best choices for serious traders who want direct market access and advanced tools.

Brokers provide access to financial markets and execute trades. They act as intermediaries between traders and exchanges, providing the necessary infrastructure and tools to place buy and sell orders. They offer services such as order execution, market access, research, analysis, and customer support. Additionally, brokers facilitate the use of leverage, margin trading, and help ensure regulatory compliance, providing traders with a secure environment to trade effectively. Without brokers, individual traders would struggle to access markets and execute trades efficiently.
An order is an instruction for a broker to execute a trade - buy or sell an asset on behalf of a trader. Depending on your strategy, risk tolerance, and market condition, different kinds of orders can be more or less effective, let's see the basic ones.
- Market order. It's a basic type designed to buy or sell an asset immediately at the next price available
- Limit order. Specifies the maximum (for buying) or minimum (for selling) price at which a trader is willing to execute a trade. It's only executed if the price reaches the preset level. There are buy and sell limit orders - they're set to buy/sell an asset at or below/above a certain price
- Stop order. Triggered when an asset moves above or below a certain price level, always executed in the direction that the price is moving. There are stop-loss orders (automatically closes a position at a certain level if the market moves against you) and (initiates a trade when the price breaks a certain level)

A broker's rating on TradingView is based on its clients' reviews. We ensure broker ratings reflect real user experiences by allowing reviews only from verified TradingView users with active linked accounts. Recent ratings carry more weight, providing up-to-date insights for informed decisions. This approach promotes transparency and prevents manipulation. Make sure to rate your broker to help it improve its service and assits other users in their choice.
Leverage is a mechanism that allows traders to open larger positions with a smaller amount of capital. It basically means borrowing funds from a broker, often multiplying your position size by 5x, 10x, or more. For example, with 5x leverage, a $100 deposit could open a $500 trade with your broker lending you $400 you don't have. It's a popular technique, but remember that while leverage increases potential profits, it also magnifies losses, which is why it's essential to learn how to manage risks.

It's always worth preparing for trades before actually executing them. On TradingView, you can do this with our Paper Trading functionality.
Margin trading means an investor buying an asset by borrowing the balance from a broker. It allows traders to increase their buying power, enabling larger positions with less upfront capital. While it can provide greater market exposure with less capital and amplify potential gains, it also comes with increased risks:
- Increased risk of losses, including exceeding initial investment
- Interest costs on borrowed funds
- Potential for margin calls requiring additional deposits
Make sure to analyze an asset thoroughly and test your strategy on a Paper Trading account to ensure you're ready to navigate these risks.
Commissions in trading are fees that brokers charge for executing trades on behalf of traders. These costs help brokers maintain their platforms, provide essential services, and ensure smooth access to financial markets.

Understanding commission structures is essential for traders, as fees can impact overall profitability. Choosing a broker with competitive rates and transparent pricing ensures cost-effective trading.
