    Custom trading app

    Date: May 06 2025
    Summary

    This is a solid option for a platform if you are into trading options, but want to combine it with trading forex in a classic mode. The payout percentage is around 90% which is within the industry standards. But their custom trading app is the only trading engine available here

    Positive

    The app is intuitive and easy to learn and use.
    The initial deposit requirements are very low, and the platform is accessible for everyone

    Negative

    Adding more options for trading apps would be a great upgrade

    Iq option for option traders

    Date: Sep 12 2025
    Summary

    I love trading options, don't judge me. I'm not saying they're in any way superior to traditional forex assets, but they definitely makes trading easier and less stressful. Risk management is easier too

    Positive

    The interface is very nice and clean. I can't remember the last time I had such a satisfiying exprience of using a private trading terminal of any broker.

    Negative

    Indicators are somewhat lacking. I couldn't find a couple of my favorites and as far as I'm aware there is no way to add custom ones

    IQ Option review

    Date: Mar 04 2025
    Summary

    Regarding my experience, I’m totally satisfied with cooperation and I’m glad being a part of the IQ Option brokerage firm.

    Positive

    The trading platform exceeded all my expectations and I don’t know why I didn’t join them earlier. As soon as I opened the platform, it was easy peasy to navigate around there and I didn’t even use any guide instructions. The buttons are located in convenient places and there was nothing complicated about opening and closing margin trades. The same I can say about option trading, just pressing higher or lower and somehow I was able to make profits on trading Trumpcoin and Melania knowing these coins will drop hard sooner or later.

    Negative

    Tbh, I think features mostly are designed for experienced traders, it would be great if they add some more simple tools for those who are still learning the ropes like me.

    IQ option platform

    Date: Oct 30 2025
    Summary

    But as for general experience I’d conclude the platform runs smooth for active players managing multi-asset exposure.

    Positive

    Found the execution crisp.Switching between fx/crypto/cfd assets feels seamless.The charting suit covers key ta tools - ema,rsi,fib levels. Payments cleared fast through standard rails.

    Negative

    Would love to see mt5 or api support for strategy automation

    Overall good platform

    Date: Dec 23 2025
    Summary

    Easy account opening procedure and real acc is available only with a very small deposit of $10,, which is great and give us the opportunity to test the platform in real environment, not only demo. Because demo is always different than a real acc

    Positive

    Different trading modes are included. As for quick trading, I think this is where their strong suit is = good payout rates

    Negative

    It would be great if they extended their market range a bit more

    Stock collection

    Date: Aug 18 2025
    Summary

    This broker is decent! The key reason why I joined here is their longevity! The company has been around since 2014 according to their information on the main page. This adds layers of credibility to their reputation!

    Positive

    As a forex trader, I wanted to try something new in my career. That’s how I stumbled upon the stock collection on their website and learned what stocks they offer on the platform. My attention attracted 10 largest companies and I didn’t even know they offer Berkshire Hathaway stocks, this is really crazy! They’re quite expensive, but trading options will change all the situations. I heard Warren Buffet will be retired and resign as CEO of the company and stocks started reacting negatively to this event. I guess there will be a down trade until the end of the year.

    Negative

    I wouldn’t say I didn’t like it, rather it was just unusual to use their proprietary platform, it’s totally different from MT4 and MT5 versions I’ve used before trading on forex.

    Efficient and user-friendly

    Date: Jan 15 2025
    Summary

    I have been trading forex mainly, and for this market I can say that I had an excellent experience. The spreads are fine, there are no additional trading commissions and the execution is pretty good. Have no complaints whatsoever.

    Positive

    The trading app provides a seamless experience with its intuitive design, sleek interface, and efficient tools for charting and managing trades. I like it a lot :)

    Negative

    When changing time frames, the loading chart takes a bit longer than expected.

    For weekly rides

    Date: Oct 31 2025
    Summary

    Less than half a year trading eur/usd with them and i gotta say: it’s fine for steady setups, I map risk vs reward efficiently.Clear costs too - I can clock my weekly performance just like i’d audit comp metrics. Funds feel secure.Not flashy but delivers.

    Positive

    Been enjoying good data sync with account even under volume spikes and smooth order entries.Neat for tracking PnL over time

    Negative

    I’d upgrade order history filters when checking longer trade logs you know, so it’d make backtesting smoother

    Across the years

    Date: May 03 2025
    Summary

    Well, my relationship with IQ Option lasted much longer than with my Ex, so here you go - if you need a loyal partner by your side, this broker is it.
    Jokes aside tho, for more than 2 years that I am here, it was pretty smooth - been trading shares here most of the time, spreads were nice, collection is quite big. Not that I trade every day, but a couple of trades in a week, and have some ongoing trades for long term - swaps are not that bad.

    Positive

    Platform is modern with all the tools I need and plus it has the sentiment. And I like the support - they always helped me though I dont contact them often.

    Negative

    I'd like some more analytics on pairs that I like, maybe AI integrated.

    I am expanding my portfolio here

    Date: Jun 13 2025
    Summary

    As someone trading a few times a year, it gave me what I needed. Simple account handling and clear action, I recommend a try

    Positive

    The charts update fast enough to react. Used it for BTC and EUR on mobile during travel and worked just fine.

    Negative

    Missed some candle data once on a low connection, a nicer website design would not hurt too

    I've grown here!

    Date: May 23 2025
    Summary

    Can't believe it has been more than 2 years already, it feels like a couple of month.. and I still remember that 11 years celebration promo like it was last month, time really does fly if you are trading happily😂 Nah but really, they've really offered me best services for couple of years though in the beginning, I had my doubts about them, but now there are none, this place is reliable alright. I may not be trading that often like I did when I just started cuz of my work, but still, I trade as frequent as I can, and doing forex nowadays for long -term indices trading.

    Positive

    A lot of positives are in the company, but one that I liked from the start - friendly and quick support, I had my questions and they answered me, and it actually convinced me to sign up.
    The platform is great as well, works smooth and I didn't have any requotes in my forex trading here.

    Negative

    Perhaps they can maybe add more ways of doing a deposit and withdrawal to cater to the needs of wider audience...

    Sometimes forex, sometimes stocks

    Date: Oct 25 2025
    Summary

    markets are not fixed, I learned this the HARD way. i was once too fixated on one forex pair, eur/usd. but then got flexible and now trade multiple pairs. But it is not just forex market for me, i also tend to trade stocks, especially if it is earnings session. When good news are announced and the chart shows a breakout, I jump in to catch the post earnings drift. Deposited some extra capital just to be ready if patterns occur again.

    Positive

    The broker offers wide array of trading instruments from forex to stocks and not only.
    I think it is great for both diversification and hedging. Also, customer support is quite responsive here, and not just they are fast with replies but also the quality of feedback is good, like i no need to re-ask stuff again to clarify things.

    Negative

    I think their platform's visual design is a bit ...mm, how to say, well, it is just not so appealing in my view. I would probably change it, maybe they need some designers to consult. IT is not a huge problem, but some aesthetic aspect to note.

    Great design

    Date: Dec 21 2025
    Summary

    It’s my 8 month trading with this broker, and I really like it. I personally think that not only high profitability returns shaped my view, but mostly the trading platform, as I spend the most time trading on it and need comfort, which it delivers.

    Positive

    Their trading platform doesn’t look like any other… I mean I tried out metatrader and tradingview before, and they are completely different. But it’s a good thing imho, because they made sth unique that works better than those two. The interface is clean, and the charts are easy to trade on. Plus, the charting and trading experience feel way smoother than in MT to compare.

    Negative

    It’s very tough to say, as I pretty much liked everything. However, if I have to point out, then I would say a bit of a lack of features. Even though they have some unique ones like a good chatting system, it still feels like they need to add sth.

    Handy place for trading, suitable for beginners

    Date: Nov 19 2025
    Summary

    As a whole spent fairly a good time trading at IQ Option. The convenient and handy platform made the process easier. Don’t even need any onboarding, started implementing my RSI trading strategy immediately after the deposit was made.

    Positive

    The platform itself, interface design, charts, perfect balance between tools and convenient use of them. Everything at one place, so I didn't need to spend time opening multiple windows in my browser. Furthermore, reasonable pricing. Fees and min depo are affordable.

    Negative

    I’d prefer to have real stock trading enabled and more payment methods in my country.

    Summary

    I like the quick trading mode. I still learn and once I understood and learned the chart patterns it was easy for me to start trading in this mode. It took me a couple of weeks on a demo account to get the courage to start real trading. for now i trade mostly eurusd on 5 min charts

    Positive

    It was easy to open trading account, it was easy to understand and start using their trading app..

    Date: Oct 12 2023
    Summary

    Overall, a really good and pleasant experience.I am very surprised with the good services they are offering.

    Positive

    I love their smooth platform, fast executions and really fast withdrawals. For the ones really into trading, they have plenty of assets, timeframes and tools. Suitable for beginners and pro traders as well. Indeed Pocket Option is a top broker in my opinion.

    Also the support is very helpful.

    Negative

    No cons until this date.If there will be any complaint in the future, for sure I will come here to update :)

    Very good platform to operate in the financial market freely.

    Date: Apr 23 2023
    Summary

    IQ Option has been a very solid platform to improve the interaction and operation process within the financial market, to generate income in a very short time, since this platform pays a fairly high percentage within binary options and also allows profit within the operation of the stock market and Forex, I really feel very comfortable using this platform to operate within the financial market, it is one of the best known currently, in addition, it offers quite easy to use, very complete, which allows you to insert everything type of trend lines, lines, add indicators to your chart, modify the timing of the candles, modify the type of chart you want to see and much more, it really has many essential tools to be able to have a price action system within a graph. In general, I have felt very comfortable using this platform to participate in the financial market, deposits and withdrawals are quite fast, in addition, the minimum to deposit within this platform is relatively low and this helps more new users to participate in the financial market at a low cost. It is also important to highlight the more commissions that this platform has offered me to operate in the financial market, that has left me impressed.

    Positive

    IQ Option is an amazing platform to be able to customize the way you trade in the financial market, I really liked that platform because it offers me trading systems, I can participate in the stock system, in the binary options system, too I can operate within the Forex system and I can also operate under leverage, this platform offers me many ways to generate money since it offers me various financial markets in which I can participate freely, I also liked that this platform has a very verification system solid and simple, every time you register for the first time within the platform, you only have to correctly configure your first and last name as well as your date of birth, in addition, you must verify your phone number so that your account is 100% verified %, this is important since the user builds to be able to verify his account correctly, which speeds up the registration process. I also really liked the general design of the platform, I consider that the general design is much more attractive than any other, which helps the community during the process of operating in the financial market, the period of time that you have to wait for deposits and withdrawals are processed in a couple of minutes, this is very important because if you want to deposit money for the first time, this deposit will take approximately five minutes, also, if you want to make a withdrawal from the platform, the withdrawals They are processed very quickly compared to other market platforms.

    Negative

    I did not like the support system that this platform has at all, since the customer support system does not offer real-time attention, you cannot talk to any type of agent to solve any problem live, in addition, through email, you have to wait a long time for your support ticket to be answered. Another thing that I did not like about this platform is the high consumption that it has within mobile devices and within computers, the platform is fully available within the browser, a downloadable version for computers and a version for mobile devices, I am not complaining about the availability that it has between devices, since it is currently available for most devices, but they must improve its consumption on the devices, it is a platform with very good graphics and a much higher quality, which means that not every user can use this platform correctly due to high consumption.
