This company appears in our regulatory warnings database. Always verify with official regulatory sources before investing or doing business with this firm.
I found RIVER (Imposter) through my accountant's suggestion and the initial impression was positive. But since last summer later, I have encountered so many issues that I cannot recommend them. Trades failing, charts not loading, and support tickets going unanswered for days at a time.
Pros: Competitive fees|Economic calendar|Intuitive for beginners
Cons: Wait times can be long during peak hours
RIVER (Imposter) has the worst mobile app I have ever used for investing. It crashes constantly, features that work on desktop are missing entirely, and the security implementation is questionable at best. How they released this app is beyond me.
Pros: Fast deposits|Regular platform improvements|Instant funding|Customizable dashboard
Cons: Limited social trading features|No fractional shares
