Oinvest... Look before you leap!

Be careful when following the marketing of Oinvest, they confess that you only need R10k, that may be so to open an account. However, once the marketing people hand you over to the traders, they immediately state you require R100k as R10k would be lost very easily due to leverages and margin calls! Do your homework on a Demo account and get comfortable with the terminology. Oinvest demo platform is not as good as Standard Bank webtrader demo, you can invest in ETF's which have less risk. The Oinvest Trader experts, are not experts otherwise they would be trading themselves. They provide very little help in my experinece and do not have your interests at heart! Beware, do your homework and choose a bigger more reputable platform!
