I would hope that most people left their platform after they had those major outages during volatile trading days a few months ago. Any place that has outages lasting that long without properly explaining what happened shouldn't be licensed to deal in securities.
Now they're just preying on people that aren't knowledgeable in the financial markets by showing them how "easy" it is to trade. I have studied and worked in finance, and I'll be the first person to tell you, trading isn't the least bit "easy" and shouldn't be portrayed as such.
