    Hi there. During last few months I was trying to find some nice trading platform around the internet. What I am looking for is a easy to use platform (like Oanda.com) but with possibility of trading commodities (Oil Brent) and shares.

    I have seen nice platform called Plus500 :

    http://www.plus500.com/?id=783&pl=1

    and they gives away 20 bucks free if you will register and validate a mobile number.

    Do you have some other propositions?

    Thanks, Bart.

    Why not try Spread Betting? You don't have to take actual ownership
    of the shares/commodities you're trading, and the profits (assume you make any!) are tax free. I've had an account with CMC Markets for a while and I'm quite happy with their service. They have an Dublin office now as well.
    Their custom MarketMaker platform is pretty easy to use, and they operate demo accounts as well.

    P.S. I have no connection with the company!

    plus500 has wide spreads and are based in Cyprus, you want an outfit that is based in the UK/Ireland

    While on the topic are there any catch all platforms, i.e. one where you can trade equities across multiple stock markets, fx and commodities?
