Investing app for Europeans and beginners

Investing as a beginner in the stockmarket in Europe. 

I realise this post is quite different to my usual posts about music, places of interest and general Berlin/German photography, but I have recently taken interest in investing into the stockmarket. 


Through researching how to start trading through an app (rather than a personalised broker or bank), I came across many ideal looking apps such as Robinhood and Webull, only to discover that they are only available for American citizens, and not at all available in Europe. 


Big sigh, plus a "thanks Apple App store" ...


However, further research led me to Trading212, which has no fees, and I have found to be very simple to use. I watched a lot of European and UK based YouTube reviews of the app, to see what the deal was (eg why no commission fees?), and surprisingly pretty much everyone had the same positive reaction and review. 


So I got started. 


The sign up process was very efficient, and there are more than enough stocks to start investing in, both UK, European and American stock markets. Plus a range of ETFs, REITs, and over 3000s individual stocks to chose from.


So far all appears to be working very well with the app and its accessibility. Less can be said for the Stockmarket's performance, but that is to be expected given the current climate. 


And finally, the sweet deal: If you follow the following link, both you and I will be rewarded a free stock. I would recommend starting with the invest app, as the CDF is more complicated. 


Do you want to get a free stock share worth up to ‎€⁠100?


Create a Trading 212 Invest account using this link www.trading212.com/invite/Gbasu6a4 and we both get a free share!


And if you do happen to follow the link and create an account, be sure to leave a comment below to let me know. 


Enjoy trading,

MJT.
