Trading on eToro Review

Image
I have been trading with eToro for the last 3 years and have found eToro to be great way to scratch the trading itch without having to risk large amounts of capital - thanks to its finely-tuned trade ticket.  Details on how best to get the most out of eToro trade ticket I have outlined below.  At the end of this article I have included a list of (low-key) performers on eToro you should consider following or copying.

For example, when we look at the Google search results for “Market Crash” over the last five years, there was a big spike for the search term in March 2020, but since then, very little.   And what happened to the market when the spike occurred? No surprise to know it appeared in the month when markets marked a bottom. And we haven’t looked back since.  So, while there may be an inclination towards a market turn , we are not seein
