I would advise you to be careful if you're using OctaFX like you mentioned in the title. I have seen a TON of scam reports recently where they are blocking withdrawals. Some of those may be warranted but they don't seem trustworthy to me.

Desktop trading is my favorite to be honest. It's a lot easier to pay attention. However, I have kids and I'm always running around, so I'll take mobile trading when I have to.

I think people get excited because they think they've found an answer - someone or something to trade for them effort free. People don't want to put in the time or they think it's too hard to learn, but then they see these too good to be true scams and want to believe in them so badly.
