Zecco Review

Broker Review

Likes - Zap Trade allows trading while surfing the web. Zecco Elite offers premium customer service for active traders.

Dislikes - Streaming quotes alongside other basic platform options cost extra; pre and post hours trading not supported; overall community lacks credibility.

Bottom Line - While Zecco does a good job of tying its community functionality into its platform the broker lacks quality trade tools and promotes its more profitable forex services too heavily to logged in users.

2012 Review Results - Zecco was 4 Stars overall and received Best in Class for Investor Community. Read the 2012 Broker Review.
