This broker uses one of the most popular trading platforms – SpotOption. Traders using EmpireOptions services report that the trading platform is very user-friendly and the fact that it is completely web-based allows you to easily execute trades via a smartphone, tablet or another mobile device. Despite the many positives that can be said about EmpireOption, there is one major setback – this broker doesnt allow trading via a demo account unless you deposit more than $2,000.

This is why many beginner traders avoid using EmpireOptions services, but you shouldnt have any problems if you are an experienced trader. Despite this fact, EmpireOptions platform still gives you access to the most important technical tools and data, so the lack of a demo account shouldnt be a major problem for most traders.

Currently, EmpireOption allows its traders to execute traders with 52 types of assets, including 14 stocks, 12 currencies, 22 indices and 4 commodities. The number isnt so impressive, but youll have access to the most widely traded types of assets, so you probably wont notice that there are just 52 types of assets. As for expiry time, it can range from 15 minutes to the end of the trading day for regular types of options. Keep in mind that EmpireOption also allows trading with 60-second options.
