FX Junction Verdict

XTB is a solid pick for copy traders focused on stocks and ETFs, with zero minimum deposit and commission-free investing making it accessible. However, its Market Maker execution model and lack of MT4/MT5 support mean it is better suited to longer-term portfolio strategies than high-frequency signal copying.
