LonghornFX stands out by offering an unlimited demo account and virtual bankroll, allowing aspiring traders to test and refine strategies before risking real funds.
Cons
Offshore regulation from the Labuan Financial Services Authority (Labuan FSA) raises safety concerns Very slim product portfolio with only 75 instruments and no stocks No education for beginners	LonghornFX hasn't earned the reputation and regulatory credentials of DayTrading.com’s most trusted trading platforms, increasing the risk to your funds in the event of disputes or broker insolvency. Despite reasonable daily market analysis, LonghornFX still lacks the webinars, live trading sessions and comprehensive research provided by best-in-class brokers, which could help inform trading decisions. The less than 200 instruments seriously limits potential trading opportunities, with an especially weak selection of stocks that falls way behind the 12,000+ shares at IG.
