Binance vs. E*TRADE vs. Interactive Brokers

If you are into crypto, it is definitely a platform that needs to be used for your business if you want to adapt to a modern-day solution. Especially with a lot of exchanges platform or crypto platforms around, I do think it's a good idea to find one that is highly regulated and well known in the industry. That's why Binance is a go too platform.

During the COVID pandemic, the airline companies were taking a big hit on travel and I saw this as a great opportunity to invest in airline stock because its value in the market had dropped tremendously.

Interactive Brokers is appropriate for retail equity investing and pension accounts holding - totally appropriate. Institutional accounts and proprietary trading group accounts - appropriate for those managing risks themselves because there is no automatic or supervised control and you trade at your own discretion. Not appropriate - is you look for crypto trading with instruments not accepted by regulator authorities as featured instruments with acceptable risk, to make sustainable and regulated investments with the main aim to preserve capital. All not regulated instruments are not appropriate and it is good and professional.
