As an experienced trader, when I look at the costs of trading indices—like the US100—at Tacirler Investment, several concerns immediately come to mind. The most crucial issue is that Tacirler Investment does not offer indices as tradable instruments. According to my research, only forex, stocks, and derivatives are available. Therefore, trading the US100 (typically an index representing the NASDAQ 100) simply isn't an option here. Even if indices were available, the lack of critical public information on spreads, commissions, swaps, and any platform or inactivity fees is a red flag for me. Normally, I rely on transparency from my brokers to fully understand all the direct and indirect costs before opening a position—costs like spread mark-ups, overnight fees, and even the method and speed of execution can all impact my results more than many realize. For indices, spread and swap costs are essential, and here, that's all missing or unsupported. Most importantly, Tacirler Investment operates without regulatory oversight. For me, this raises the risk that any trading costs could be arbitrary or even adjusted without warning—something I am absolutely not comfortable with in any serious trading strategy. In my opinion, and for my own trading, I would not engage with this broker if my focus was on indices, especially with costs and product availability both so unclear.
