I started trading with Alior Trader 18 months ago. I tried working with 4 different brokers. In the end I decided on this one. My experience with Alior Trader is positive. Overall, the company works well, its regulation is normal, the choice of instruments is wide, and it doesn't interfere with trading. However, don’t count on a quick withdrawal.

I recommend Alior Trader. I've been trading here for 3 months and I have very good results. I can’t say that this is an ideal broker, it has some small errors like everyone else, but the main thing is that the company is honest.
