Summary: Moomoo offers research and education resources geared toward active traders.
Active traders can tap into a trove of data, including news, live market data, and chat from other Moomoo traders. Resources are lighter than you would get with some of the larger brokerages, but the tools and data you have at Moomoo are sufficient for many active traders.
Education resources directly on the Moomoo site are fairly light, though you also have access to all Futu resources. Still, this area of the site leaves much to be desired. It’s better to come to Moomoo with an idea of what you’re doing in the markets.
