      What trading platforms have genuinely good integrated research? Pattern scanners, market calendars, sentiment analysis, analyst reports and so on.

          Several platforms offer fantastic resources to learn and research. From my experience, these are standouts:

          TD Ameritrade (Thinkorswim): Their Thinkorswim platform is renowned for its in-depth analysis tools and educational resources.

          IG: Known for its user-friendly approach, IG provides a wealth of educational content for traders of all experience levels.

          Interactive Brokers (IBKR): If you’re looking for advanced research tools and market data, IBKR is a strong contender.

          TradeStation: TradeStation offers a powerful platform with educational resources geared towards building your trading strategies.

          Good luck!

              IBKR is head and shoulders above the rest in the research department in my view.

              There are dozens of financial research and news providers that you can link with their platform from Dow Jones to QuantConnect, and Market Edge.

              You will have to pay for some of them though so it’s worth figuring out which tools you really need and will see a return on using. The Research Pack from QuantConnect is $48/month for instance.

                Helpful stuff cheers fellas. It feels like Interactive Brokers is the one to try and I have come across this page which lists all their partners: https://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/pricing/research-news-services.php

                Are they any you’d really recommend?

                  I mentioned the ones I rate (QuantConnect, Dow Jones, Market Edge). I’ve also heard good things about TipRanks and Seeking Alpha.

                  It really depends on what you trade and the information you need to make decisions…

                    Hi Steve ET,

                    Have a read of our guide to the best brokers with research tools. We score every firm from 1 to 5 (5 being best) for their research tools and have ranked the best.

                    Many of the platforms listed have integrated research features. XTB, for example, prioritizes research from its own analysts with near-hourly market coverage, a stock screener, a heatmap and detailed charting insights.

                      FBS has a free Telegram channel, which is interesting for technical analysis and economic news.

                      FYI, my FBS review should be live on this site shortly 😁 Maybe James can add a link here when it is…
