Our view of Saxo Bank
Saxo Bank stands out for an FSA (Denmark) licence, 34 years of operating history, a low minimum deposit of $0 and TradingView. Its suitability depends on the legal entity available in your country, the protection attached to that entity and whether its pricing and platform range match how you intend to trade.
No specific limitation has been recorded, but this does not remove the need to verify the account entity and terms.
