Coinbase vs. thinkorswim

Coinbase is well suited to the beginning investor, or someone who wants to learn more about Crytpo. While not all forms of Crypto are available for purchase outside of Coinbase Wallet, the variety is great. Also, the way their graphs display performance over time is so convenient, we do not have to do excessive outside research, because Coinbase is great at keeping relevant information in one place.

I think this site does a great job in providing the information that any day trader, market timer, or long-term investor. I think that it is useful to all types of people who would take the time to understand it. Now it could be extremely overwhelming to a novice or someone who has difficulty understanding ding financial concepts, but to those that are willing it's a great platform.

• Under load/high volume, the site and application become unresponsive
• Customer support is lacking. It's hard to talk to a human and get a real response to your questions/concerns. This is particularly irritating since we're dealing with money.

Great UI, Great tools for education learning with freebies, eqsy onboard, site and app are pretty good. Good API documentation. The opposite is high fees and slow support when needed. Overall it is good for its simple use and balance between beginners and professional traders making it a great choice and this is why it is one of the most famous site out there.

I haven't needed to contact support for Coinbase yet—it's probably because it is super easy to use and very intuitive. If I were to use the support, it would probably be better than these other companies because most of the other ones come from foreign markets or aren't as big as Coinbase.

Coinbase and robinhood both offer crypto trading and investing. Coinbase, however, also offers to stake along with sending and receiving crypto. It's also nice that Coinbase focuses on crypto rather than also offering the purchasing and selling of stocks. Coinbase also does a better job of trying to educate their users about each crypto and often offers free crypto with that education. I use Coinbase for crypto trading/purchasing for those reasons.

I have personally used Charles Schwab mobile app and online page for about 3 years and have been thoroughly satisfied. Before TD Ameritrade and Charles Schwab merged, I had used thinkorswim for the 60-day paper money trial before using my real money on investments. I confidently believe the time I've spent on thinkorswim has helped me mitigate any big losses in my investments. As for robinhood, the mobile app is a lot better for beginners to understand and the UI can be described as more aesthetically pleasing. thinkorswim triumphs in many other aspects [as well] such as being backed up by TD Ameritrade and Charles Schwab and the plethora of knowledge [a user can access].

• To withdrawal, coinbase ask which currency to withdraw from. Then give a QR code to point at a bitcoin ATM or service.
