Recommended Trading Platforms

Where members can trade USA shares, by country

Our Capsules are USA shares, so members need a broker that offers reliable access to US-listed stocks. Fractional share support is especially useful when scaling the Capsule to your capital. Below are popular platforms by country.

Why we recommend Interactive Brokers (IBKR)

  • Available in all the countries our members are based in.
  • Direct, reliable access to USA shares with fast execution.
  • Fractional shares for USA stocks on most accounts.
  • Competitive low commissions (especially good for regular Capsule trading).
  • Excellent demo / paper trading account for practice.
  • Professional platform with strong research tools.
  • Highly regulated and trusted globally.

Alternative options: For beginners or promotional $0 fees: Moomoo, Tiger Brokers, or Webull (check availability in your country).

We recommend starting with a demo account on Interactive Brokers to practise the weekly Capsule system before using real capital. Most platforms above offer good USA share trading support.
