Commission-free broker analysis:
WeBull:
I've been a fan of WeBull for a while now because of their mobile platform. The platform has it all: complete charts with interactive indicators (yes you can show the 1 min candle on a 5-year chart with Bollinger bands if that's what you want to see), level 1 & 2, news, profile, analyst ratings etc and more. It's a decent platform especially since it's completely free.
This platform has several downsides though. Depending on the ticker, trade execution can be almost immediate and as more typical the case, the execution can take forever. I've personally had trades take more than 5 minutes to execute. Also, if you are under the PDT rule and you use 3-day trades within the 5-day rolling rule, you are banned from exiting any trades, even if those trades are overnight without being classified as a pattern day trade and subject to a margin call. I know this from personal experience. The reason is a programming glitch that won't be fixed anytime soon.
Although I remain a fan, I've decided to close my account with WeBull because of these 2 reasons.
