I had a tough time withdrawing my funds after trading with SH Markets. Customer support is only available via email, and their response times were longer than expected. I would recommend looking for a more regulated broker for peace of mind.

I found the TradingWeb platform to be very user-friendly with great charting tools. The variety of trading instruments available is impressive, and it has helped me diversify my portfolio. However, I wish there was better support available.

My experience with SH Markets has been extremely disappointing. I faced issues with my account and the email support was unhelpful. I feel uneasy trading with an unregulated broker and am looking to withdraw my funds as soon as possible.
