I've been looking for the best trading apps with little money for a while, and I just made a comparison that I think is worth sharing. The truth is, nowadays you don't need to be a millionaire to start investing; there are plenty of accessible options.

First is MiTrade, which is what I would recommend if you're just starting out. It has a clean interface (without much noise), you can deposit from $20, and they operate with stocks, cryptocurrencies, gold, oil... all from a single account. TradingView charts are integrated, and the commission is zero. Plus, they give you $50k in virtual money to practice risk-free.

If you already have experience and want more options, AvaTrade offers MetaTrader 4 and 5, over 1200 assets, and professional accounts with higher leverage. The minimum deposit is $100. Plus500 is also interesting for traders with some level because it offers nearly 3000 CFDs, and they recently entered futures markets in the United States.

XM is great if you're good at managing risk — it allows leverage of up to 1000x, and you have options from micro accounts. You deposit from $5. And then there's eToro, which is the favorite for those who want to automatically copy strategies from experienced investors. The minimum to start is $50.

The reality is that all these trading apps are regulated and quite secure. The key is to choose based on your level: if you're a beginner, MiTrade or eToro. If you know what you're doing, AvaTrade or XM with MetaTrader. And if you're looking for a variety of assets, Plus500 offers more options. The important thing is to practice first with the demo accounts that all of them provide. Which one catches your eye the most?
