Questions that make the choice clearer.

  1. Roughly how much will you trade each month, and which fee tier does that put you in?
  2. Would you use an order book, or do you want a quoted instant price?
  3. Does either platform's history or security information change how much you'd keep there?

We have not timed support responses, funded these accounts or audited custody. A lower fee does not establish that a platform is safer or better for your circumstances.
