Plus500

Plus500 has a lot of positives; it’s an FCA and ASIC regulated CFD broker that is also publicly listed on the London Stock Exchange, which gives traders more transparency than they can expect to get from most other brokers or exchanges. Conversely, its offering is minimal both in markets available and overall tools and resources on the platform.
