IQ Option Reviews

IQ Option platform is good place to start your trading journey. It’s my first broker and started trading here when i knew almost nothing. The app is easy and the market insights provided are helpful

It’s good that different trading modes are available, but options are my fav ones for trading for now

Forex trading is not their strong side, spread is just standard

I can't say for sure if the platform is good for a long term trading but definitely it's been a good experience so far to me - I' testing the app for just a few weeks. They do have good perks - so I'm gonna dive in more.

I like this thnings aboput the broker:
+good iq option trading app for android - fast
+support is helpful and gives detailed info
+different instruments present for trading

what I found annoying is their web-based platform - takes time to launch it (and I had fast internet) - gotta work on that

I came to the conclusion that proprietary platforms can be better than well-known software, like metatrader or tradingview. After using iq option for some time, I found out that having a less complex platform, but more convenient for trading as it significantly cut the time spent on technical stuff. In addition, I could ask for withdrawal, just while trading. There were certain conditions, but who cares:))

Their platform of course, all in all solutions for trading. Compared to the software I used, I didn’t need to open several windows for trading. Payment gateway is there, technical and fundamental analytics can be get in the market analysis section, where I could monitor news and earning reports releases, or simply click the asset and get insights for it.
Satisfied with its speed too. The platform didn’t glitch,

Certain tools were missing. The most essential to me, positions size forex calculator, which I’ve still been using somewhere for free. Not the most developed account system. Basically, it’s either spread based for margin assets or profitability based for options. Need something like raw or fixed spreads:-?

One iq option review was enough to give them a chance. It mentioned something about custom indicators and I was impressed, because as a rule of thumb prop platforms used to give only built-in indicators.
Plus, they were reliable. Also not a common thing in the options world.

Customizable platform, which is very rare in the niche of cfd+ options trading platforms. I could import my indicators or add them manually, using a code from any AI. Since, I need something more than simple rsi ma, it was spot on.
Powerful market analysis section. Fundamental analysis+ sentiment insights, were not bad add-ons to my trading strategy.

Interesting that I haven’t found anything to report about. I just wish to have more payment options, though card payments were nice in terms of deposit.

Even though I’ve been trading here for less than 6 months, I already know I’m going to stay here for a long time.

I got started my journey with a live account right away. Nothing major happened. Everything was alright there. They matched with my trading needs.

I think you gotta add AI features because I’ve seen other competitors adding them one by one.

The IQ option is popular as a broker with big bonuses, but I didn’t choose them because of that. I checked other things like stable execution during active sessions, and that’s where they didn’t let me down.

I thought they offer only options for trading, but when I signed up for the platform to check what instruments I can trade, I found out that there are classic CFDs also available. This variety might help most traders and especially me to diversify the deposit much more because I’m not depended on only a small broad of assets.

Maybe the lack of professional tools on the platform for a deeper technical analysis. I mean it’s too simple to use, even a child would be able to understand how to open positions there. It’s indeed different from outdated MT versions I’ve used before.

All orders went through fine, charts were without glitches, and I didn’t get lost in the mobile app.

It’s actually good by the way. I was prepared for the worst, but IQ option has created a convenient mobile app. Chatting with the other guys, helps me get better in trading day by day.

There wasn’t enough educational content. Maybe adding live webinars or lessons would be nice.

After trading on a demo for quite some time I decided to open my first real trading account and the procedure was pretty simple. Even easier than I thought.
It’s good that they offer accounts with very low min depo requirements, which made me take this step and gain real trading xp.

Easy onboarding and a very reasonable entry threshold for opening a real trading account. This makes them a beginner-friendly broker.

No metatrader app available for trading, but it’s not a big deal.

When I join a new broker, I usually test all features during bad conditions. That’s where most things break. But here it didn’t. IQ Option operates stable even during FOMC meetings and Trump announcements. Recently when Trump threatened Iran with massive attacks due to the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, volatility has increased significantly. There were no delays, no glitches. Currently I’m trading WTI Oil and Brent Oil. Leverage level is accessible up to 1:600 which is really a lot and useful in my situation.

There are a bunch of benefits available to you. IQ Option is not as standard as many other brokers. Just so you know, the platform offers not only options with fixed payouts of around 90-92%, but also conventional assets for traditional trading. This flexibility gives you so much room for implementing different strategies and learning new techniques. Sometimes when the forex or stock markets are choppy, I just trade options, so I basically have no days-off in trading and to be honest I has like that. This helps me shape my trading skills and pattern recognition. I learned to identify hidden patterns and key levels quickly just by giving a look at the chart for seconds.
Also, the proprietary trading platform is what I was amazed by most. Even though I’ve never used it before. For some reason, it felt intuitive and navigation was smooth around there. I haven’t had any issues with finding the “finance” tab and then withdrawing my profits directly from a trading account to my bank card. The process has been always clean and without weird cancellations or delays. I appreciate that a lot!

Nonetheless, there’s no perfect broker, right? So i have a few complaints about the absence of advanced features on the platform. Yeah, it’s easy to use, but having no access to professional tools makes advanced technical analysis limited in my opinion. Adding some AI features like AI take profits or stop losses for CFD trading would be nice.

The broker is legit. They have been working for 12 years, and I been trading with them for over 2 years myself. Throughout the experience I didn’t doubt them, as they always processed my withdrawal requests without any issues. However, I really like them for the trading part tho. As I mentioned before, the platform is very pleasant to trade with. Even during high volatility it doesn’t lag.

Iq option platform is one of a kind. It’s a high quality platform that integrates distinct features and tools that most platforms lack. I mean the live educational webinars are held right inside the platform, never seen someone else do the same. The interface is very user friendly with smooth charts.

Can’t recall any big cons that would make my trading experience worse. There were some delays and stuff, but that’s not a problem.

I started recently. Got here by recommendation. Used their apps - liked the experience of trading options, and think the desktop version is more comfortable because you know it's desktop;)
I also noticed the feature of historical quotes here - quite convenient to do a retrospective analysis, I guess it's more for experienced traders, and I'm still getting adjusted to the platform. I think out of all assets they offer- they focus on stocks and forex, the rest are present too, but the number of the first 2 categories is more inclusive. I'm doing stocks and usd/jpy (for this one spreads were very good).
Feels secure.

I liked how their support has welcomed me with detailed feedback on how to start, about the platform and what to expect overall while trading with them
Appreciated also both their windows-based and mobile apps - worked equally fine, but I preferred more desktop - a better feeling of control
And they have a good choice of stocks - I've taken some as my investing

They offer a free withdrawal only one time per month- i think it's kinda unfair, sometimes I can do more than one withdrawal - would be nice if they made at least 2 withdrawals free ...otherwise paying commissions can get annoying when doing withdrawals more than once

When I joined for the first time, I didn’t open big trades at first. Just testing the waters. It was the best approach to get the bigger picture about what broker IQ Option is. So far I’m still not opening large lots on CFDs, cuz I know how painful it is to lose a full deposit due to greediness. O_O

Let’s talk about something important. Withdrawals and deposits, that’s what worries most traders when they join brokers. IQ Option is quite unique in this matter. They offer 1 free withdrawals per calendar month which allows you to avoid commissions. Also, there's a wide range of payment options available, but I guess everything depends on your location. For instance, I’m able to withdraw my funds through crypto (cardano, litecoin, ethereum, xrp, USDT), Volet, Webmoney, Neteller and Bank card. Pretty abundant, isn’t it? Knowing I have so many options for quick transactions gives me peace of mind.

From my perspective, the proprietary platform was built too simple and easy. Of course, it’s good, but I feel very limited when it comes to advanced technical analysis. Not enough indicators, not enough tools. Would love to see new developments in near months.

IQ Option app, the mobile app especially, whoever designed it deserves praise and maybe a bonus ;) really good overall UX, and they even include account management features in it

Pretty fast and simple onboarding procedure. Low deposit is required for real account. Various trading modes included

I think they can work more on the market range and add more instruments

As I already said, this platform fits my trading style, but aside from that, the service they provide is excellent. I have never experienced any trouble while trading or while withdrawing my profits. It’s rare to find such a professional broker who puts clients in the first place

Various trading mechanics, all on one account and on one trading platform. I like to switch trading between forex mode and options, and this platform fits my style very well

Objectively, the market range is limited. I mean there are around 100+ instruments, which is not bad, but it can use a bit wider options and include more categories

The experience was okay, thanks to the trading conditions and environment as i mentioned before. Plus, the withdrawal process left me impressed, as the speed once was even faster than they claimed.

I like the trading environment and conditions with iq option. I mean the platform is kinda stylish with all of these fancy chart designs and etc. It makes the platform more usable, unlike MT.

The lack of education and analytic materials. They have tutorials, but those are just not enough in my opinion.

The trading experience was good, but the services didn’t let me down. I’ve been at the platform for 6 months, if there was a problem or obvious weaknesses, I wouldn't be still trading at this place, right?

It was able to trade in multiple trading modes and for the most of the time, at adequate prices. Sometimes either options or forex brings some opportunities, it’s good they charge more than fair. For example 86% for the majority of assets looked like a juicy deal for me.

It will be great if they add some alternatives to their current platform. Not like their platform is bad or something, just miss some custom indicators and algo trading from mt.

It was a good trading experience. Tastes are different and I understand this. The most important was how I feel myself trading there and the final outcome. Since it’s right I really have nothing to complain about.

For me it’s their proprietary platform. I can compare it with my previous experience with MT4-5 platforms. Iqoption is easier and has the interface that I get used to very quickly.
Also the spread for majors was kept at about 1 pip. I think it’s good.

But, its not good-looking I think. I didn’t feel this trading vibe, even though it was easy and comfortable.

I've been using this for about 2 years, charts are easy to read and it keeps your attention where it matters. I would recommend a trial at least.

It's been consistent since I started using it monthly. Helped me keep track of EUR and BTC trades.

Navigating the platform requires some help and the support seem overwhelmed sometimes

There's a reason why I put education i the cons section, mainly because they have a blog and it's wonderful... but it's not enough. Like you can see the lessons are in text format and these are more for like reading, not learning. Therefore, I'd like them to add some Live TV or something like this.
When it comes to trading itself, for almost a year or so, didn't experience any issues with it, mostly I win but sometimes I loose my trades if I don't make good analysis.😔

The trading environment has everything you need in the client area.
Interesting assets to trade, ETFS and stocks alongside usual forex
Two modes for trading, options and usual forex and tight spreads.

Not enough practical education, maybe videos or live TV to teach people how to trade.

IQ Option app is everything you need in one sleek package. You can trade all kinds of stuff, like FX, stocks, crypto right from your phone or desktop.
The app has a bunch of tools for analysis, like charts and indicators, so you feel like a pro even if you’re just starting. Trades execute smoothly, with no annoying lags. And if you get stuck, their customer support is just a click away.

Impressive list of CFDs on stock is my top thing about IQ Option. Besides, their trading alerts always keep me up to markets.

I would like to have MetaTrader application just for a change or comparison.
