Tradeview markets, anyone?

Hi traders!
Does anyone here have experience with Tradeview markets (formerly known as Tradeviewforex)?
I am considering opening an account there to trade US stocks (or rather ETFs). Tradeview claims they offer trading in real stocks, with Metatrader 5 among others.

Restricted by EU regulations (no US ETFs because of not supplying KIDs), this would be the only option for me as far as I know, without being subjected to the 'pattern day trader' rule in case if using an US based broker.

Update: Opened an account for stocks (MT5) with the EU branch (regulated in Malta); all works well, you pay 1 cent per share. Only problem is, I do not and can not trust them..

That makes me wonder why you decided to open an account with them, then, rather than resolving the trust issue first. Are you also planning to send money to them, even without trusting them?

Call me irrational. Rather it is the longing for trading US stuff without restrictions (EU, US), and for cheap. Yes, I have deposited a small amount, just to see how it all plays out; you get to know the quirks of it only if you trade live.. Indeed, there has already been an "event" (or two in fact)..

Yes; I agree with you, there.

Wasn't trying to call you irrational - I was just curious.

Malta's a funny place for forex-trading? Oanda's own prop-firm is based there, but they won't take EU-residents for their evaluations or funding: that's a bit weird?

And Malta brokers are EU-regulated, and have EU limitations, but people also say Malta (and Bulgaria) are "soft-regulated", too - so I don't really understand.

Anyway, I wish you good luck there!

Please let us know how did it go?

Would love to open one since I am from Australia. I like cTrader.
