Choosing a trading platform
- Start by checking your trade: the fee finder shows each exchange's charge in dollars for your amount and method.
- Check the state where you live. Of the US exchanges we cover, 6 serve New York, while some exclude other states too.
- If you plan to cash out, the buy fee and a free bank withdrawal are equally important.
