Thought I'd create a distinct thread from the previous one asking about daily use, because I really do want to hear more on people's pain points. Great to know people are generally sounding pretty positive in those posts who recently switched, but want to know your difficulties as well! This way old and new users can share their thoughts, hopefully to inspire a respectful discussion.

For me it is missing good and easy setup software for trading. Yes some platforms run in browser, but the experience is not that great as native app. Maybe some find their setup that is OK for them, but for now I haven't figured this out for me as I want specific broker(EU) and broker with API access and some 2FA security. Not that many options as I'm used to on Mac or much more options on Windows. Maybe I've found that SaxoBank broker with TradingView integration might work for me, when trading on larger timeframes(hourly and more), but if I wanted to trade on low timeframes(3mins candlesticks etc.) then it's unusable for me as TradingView updates prices slowly and I need faster update of ticks and candles. TradingView is also american software, so I would rather not use that too as I'm trying to get rid of as much american software/goods as possible. I was having problem running Metatrader or cTrader through Wine, but it was some time ago and I might try that again. In some time it will settle and I'll find the proper setup for me, but not ideal for now.
