Hi all.

 

I have been using IG-Markets platform since 2008 for trading local (JSE) listed shares via CFDs.

 

Personally I find the normal online (Via your internet web browser) for trading and seeing market depth not very user friendly. I do all my trades via the L2 Dealer platform which is the desktop version (small program) with live trading and market depth.

 

I do pay extra for the live market depth data but if I remember correctly you get refunded the monthly fee if you trade more than 3 or 4 times a month.

 

Overall I have been very happy with them over all these years.

 

My 2c worth.

iress seems to be software you purchase, that cant possibly be the most common CFD platform used?

Fin institute linked iress where you fill out forms is legae peresec listed on jse..once they have docs takes about 3 days...they give you back up where you can check all your transactions and fees etc...I have my equities there too..

I use iress..they do fica checks and you fill in about 30 pages do not the easy option...but I feel safer it is a proper platform...anything you can join instantaneously and pay with your credit card concerns me....but I'm sensible with my moola

What is the most common CFD platform to use? I have tried a few already, but just want to settle on what the most people recommend.
