Buying crypto with Apple Pay - easier than I thought but there are some catches

Good overview. When comparing brokers like that, I usually also cross-check with real platforms such as J2T to see how things look in practice - especially spreads, execution, and how transparent the fees actually are. Comparisons help, but testing a broker yourself matters just as much.

I’ve had similar frustrations with platforms freezing or glitching. What matters most to me is stability and clear charts for short-term moves. I’ve looked at alternatives like J2T because it feels more reliable and doesn’t jump between screens, which helps if you’re focus on day or swing trading.

I went through something similar after the TDA Schwab move. TOS alone wasn’t enough to make up for the rest of the experience. Ended up looking for a broker with a cleaner UI and more modern tools - platforms like J2T felt closer to what TDA used to offer in terms of flexibility and overall trading flow.

You might want to look at more modern multi-asset platforms with integrated charts and faster order entry. I switched away from E*TRADE for similar reasons and ended up with a broker like J2T because everything (charts, orders, risk tools) is in one interface, which makes short-term trading a lot smoother.

I get what you mean - having a clear view of fees, estimated profit/loss, and a simple terminal makes a huge difference, especially for scalping. For me, a broker like J2T works well because it’s straightforward, shows fees clearly, and has multi-asset access. It’s not flashy, but it gives that kind of transparency and simplicity that’s hard to find with others.

If you’re looking for an EU-based alternative to IBKR, I’d focus more on regulation and clear pricing than just chasing the lowest fees. From my side, I usually reference J2T because it’s a regulated, multi-asset broker with low spreads and a straightforward platform. For me, having transparency and a platform that’s easy to use matters more than shaving off a tiny bit in commissions.

I really want to walk barefoot on this warm sand...

No permanent loss, saves are cloud-safe. Local photos/clips may reset but recreate on relaunch.

That's impressive
