As an investor, what should I look for in selecting the most ideal exchange platform?
That would depend on your purpose dude, If you are going to buy an altcoins that are potentials much good to choose an exchange that has a lot of traders who used that platform just like Houbi, okex, and binance those are pretty much good pal.
I like to use the Huobi exchange more because the appeal of this exchange is huge and the community of this project works very well during this period. In exchanges like Binance, Okex, the use of BOTs makes the data inaccurate and I hate the falsehood. If you invest in Huobi you will feel more secure and have the best view of the altcoin that you are holding
