Clients can trade more than 10,000 equities and ETFs listed on exchanges including the LSE, NYSE, NASDAQ, Xetra, Euronext Amsterdam, Euronext Paris, Euronext Lisbon, Bolsa de Madrid, Wiener Börse, and Gettex. The platform supports fractional shares, multi-currency accounts across 12 currencies, and automated investing through customizable “Pies.” The firm does not offer options, futures, or cryptocurrency trading according to its current product disclosures.
