I recently revisited the list of reputable international stock exchanges to start investing in foreign stocks, but I was truly overwhelmed by the number. I've tried a few, and they all promise great things, but when you dig deeper, hidden fees, wide spreads, slow withdrawals... it's just terrible.
Only when I chose a truly reputable international stock exchange (with FCA, CySEC, ASIC licenses) did I feel at ease. My advice is: open a demo account first, test for at least 2-3 weeks, then deposit real money. Don't rush.
The best part is that CFD trading allows me to both buy (Long) and short (Short), unlike Vietnamese stocks which only go one way. Plus, T+0 order matching happens immediately, no need to wait for T+2.5 like domestically. But the biggest trap is leverage – it can increase profits 10 times but can also wipe out your account in a blink if you're not careful.
Everyone should start with low leverage (1:2 - 1:5) and always set a Stop Loss. I learned this from losing money 😅. Currently, I only risk 2% of my capital per trade – the golden rule everyone should know.
Which platform are you considering? Has anyone used it? Can you share your experience with me?
