Answers on Futures trading platforms

Can you trade futures on a platform that charges no account fee?

Yes, eToro lists futures among the markets it offers, and its account fee is $0. No management fee is charged either, at 0%, and the platform is commission-free. Portfolios start at $500 for copy-trading investors, and the operating entity is eToro (Europe) Ltd, covered by EU ICS up to EUR 20,000. See our eToro review for the account details.

What to compare on futures trading platforms

Compare three things: what a trade costs, how your money is protected, and whether the platform actually offers futures. At eToro the account fee and the management fee are both free, and its commission-free model means no trading commission. Futures sit alongside stocks, ETFs, forex, CFDs and crypto, with investor protection of EU ICS up to EUR 20,000 applying through eToro (Europe) Ltd. More in our eToro review.
