Trading Platform Available

Capital One Market claims to give traders the leading MT4 and MT5, however, only a web-based trading platform instead. Whatever, traders have better choose brokers who offer the MT4 and MT5, which are highly praised by traders and brokers alike due to their ease of use and great functionality, offering top-notch charting and flexible customization options. They are especially popular for their automated trading bots, a.k.a. Expert Advisors.

Deposit & Withdrawal

The funding methods available at Capital One Market are Credit/Debit cards, Wire Transfers, OkPay and AliPay. The minimum initial deposit requirement is said to be $250, while the minimum withdrawal amount and fees are not determined.

Bonuses

Capital One Market also claims to offer some bonuses. However, the bonus can only be withdrawn when you trade 30 times the bonus plus the deposit. In any case, you should be very cautious if you receive a bonus. Bonuses aren't client funds, they're company funds, and fulfilling the heavy requirements that are usually attached to them can prove a very daunting and difficult task. Note that brokers are prohibited from using bonuses and promotions by all leading regulators.
