Risk & regulation notes

eToro is publicly listed on Nasdaq (ETOR) and supervised by many different regulators per service region — one of the broadest regulatory structures among brokers in this directory. Copy trading carries its own risk: copying another trader's strategy does not guarantee the same results, and a copied trader's past performance is no guarantee of the future.
