  1. 1Translate each strength into your actual use case: asset class, account size, platform and trading frequency.
  2. 2Verify each watchout against current account documents and the broker's official risk disclosures.
  3. 3Check whether a listed strength depends on a specific legal entity, country, account type or product.
  4. 4Compare the broker against at least one alternative before treating a strength as decisive.
  5. 5Prioritize regulator record, funding/withdrawal terms and total cost over marketing features.
