I just did some research on apps to start investing with not much money and found something interesting. It turns out you no longer need thousands of dollars to get into trading — there are several platforms that let you start with very low amounts.

The one that caught my attention the most is MiTrade. Literally, you can open an account with just 20 USD, and the interface is super clean, nothing complicated. It has integrated TradingView charts, tight spreads, and also gives you 50,000 virtual dollars to practice for 90 days risk-free. It’s pretty good for beginners.

There are also AvaTrade and XM if you already have experience. AvaTrade is more comprehensive with MetaTrader 4 and 5, although you need a minimum of 100 USD. XM is even more flexible — with just 5 USD to get in, and the leverage is huge (up to 1000x, but be careful with that).

Plus500 has an enormous variety of assets, over 2800, so if you want to diversify, it’s good. And eToro is the social wave — you copy the trades of experienced traders automatically, perfect if you’re a beginner.

Honestly, anyone can try now. The key is to practice first with virtual money, understand the risks, and not put everything in at once. Has anyone already used any of these? I’d like to know which one seems better to you.
