ST Global Markets

For a brokerage that allows Pattern Day Trading without being kept to the burdensome PDT rules of minimum $25k untreatable and then only being able to trade with funds above the $25k....This brokerage firm covers this issue being a foreign based brokerage setup. Their DAS platform fees are about 1/3 - 1/2 of other brokerages.Customer service has been amazing since opening this account with typical replies to email within the hour...most time within about ten minutes.Account funding is super easy and fast. While they will accept the typical wire, ACH and major credit cards are accepted with funds posting to your trading account immediately (and if you utilize your favorite card for accumulating points...what a great bonus for getting points for funding your trading account).I have been setup and using STG Markets for a little over a week, and at the pace I am going should have over the $25k required minimum to avoid PDT rules within a month or two. But...I will probably stay with them as their fees and ease of conducting business has been outstanding. If anything changes, for the better or worse, I will update my review accordingly.

Its deposit requirements are quite low, there are three different account types, and the leverage is appropriate, but the withdrawal time is really long. I hope it can help traders speed up the withdrawal process.

This withdrawal process is amazingly horrible. I processed my initial withdrawal on 06/10/2023 the received a confirmation on 07/10/2023 that it was completed and that it'll take 2-15 working days.
