This is the one area that YOU must be 100% confident with.

We will not recommend a specific Broker as such but instead give you a check list that MUST be met by all prospective firms that you may wish to trade with in the future.

For ease of transfer of funds and safety levels many people trade via their Bank. 

Most major Banks offer such a service.

The Charting package you choose will need to reflect what type of trader you are.

Some offer live data, others end of day.

Some charge  EXTRA for data while others include data in their pricing plans.

Price range varies enormously so make sure you only pay for what you need.

You will be very disappointed if you buy the top of the range package and expect it to make 

you rich by just pushing a few buttons.
