• Please try to select the correct prefix when making a new thread in this folder.

    Discuss is for general discussions of a financial company or issues related to companies.

    Info is for things like "Has anyone heard of Company X?" or "Is Company X legit or not?"

    Compare is for things like "Which of these 2 (or more) companies is best?"

    Searching is for things like "Help me pick a broker" or "What's the best VPS out there for trading?"

    Problem is for reporting an issue with a company. Please don't just scream "CompanyX is a scam!" It is much more useful to say "I can't withdraw my money from Company X" or "Company Y is not honoring their refund guarantee" in the subject line.
    Keep Problem discussions civil and lay out the facts of your case. Your goal should be to get your problem resolved or reported to the regulators, not to see how many insults you can put into the thread.

    More info coming soon.

General discussions of a financial company
Just FYI NH updated performance for other strategies.
That's what I was expecting, I thought that for 3 months, all investors want is transparency, no matter how good or bad.

By the way, I'm going to give a try and shift from Hyper FX to Shark FX, then if the 3 systems (Hyper FX, Hybrid FX and Gorilla FX) come back to profitable levels, I'll assess the situation in the next few months.

They changed the "product line" on their website again.

They added new "Hawk FX" now, and canceled Gorilla FX & Hyper FX instead.

So, it seems that they don't really offer long-term strategies for customers.
As soon as one strategy fails, it will be replaced with another one that has
been already running (hidden) for a few months.

This happened already before...

.... in my humble opinion, hiding/replacing strategies is not very transparent.:oops:

agreed... I wonder why they redacted them, surely they should just have a page that says. Retired products and historical performance.

I won't say they were hiding the systems on purpose, they need to test the system for a period of time before show to the public, if they test in a real account for only 6 months and show to the public, it doesn't give much credibility, but a system that has been trading for over 2 years successfully it's much more reliable.

I agree with you, they should have a historical performance of the "retired products" I like that, I'm going to suggest to NH to see if they can do that.

Systems will never perform well for the rest of their life, it looks their life spam is about 3 years and them, according to the market conditions, they need to be changed or adapted, most probably this is the reason NH has being tested other systems before opening to the public, which for me, it's a good thing, otherwise they would run out of system options to the investors, they just should be more transparent and inform us in advance.

I haven't shifted yet, so my account is inoperative. But I came back from holidays and will do that. Let's see how it will perform now.
 
Dear members, I decided to temporary transfer my remaining funds from the invest account to the trading account. As I want to try a new strategy myself, so if you to check my link from myfxbook, it won't work anymore. Nothing wrong about the Shark FX, as it seems working fine, I just want to trade trade myself with SFX for a while and then add some funds back to the invest account in the future. Keep me posted about the performance.
 
after trades have closed.
If the trades are only shown to the investor after they have been closed, it removes transparency. If the accounts were being held at a reputable, FCA regulated broker, this would be less of an issue. However if the accounts are held at SFX which is unregulated and based in St Vincent and Grenadines, this means there is little or no rule of law that SFX needs to abide by.

Nordhill and SFX are owned and run by the same people. The fact that trades are not available in real time to be viewed by investors and are only posted once they are closed, points to the largest potential risk: SFX and Nordhill could possibly have created a false track record (easy to do if you run your own unregulated MT4 brokerage firm) which they use to attract new investor capital. They can then create false trades which they post on investors' accounts which generally show good profits, however possibly not based on real trades. They may or may not place real trades.

This leads to more and more investors lodging capital at SFX which can be used to pay to older investors who request withdrawals. In other words, this could potentially be a large Ponzi scheme where the newer investors are paying for older investors' withdrawals and paper 'profits'.

As I mentioned before, if such delayed trade reporting was being done at a regulated, reputable broker, it could be a perfectly genuine program. However, the fact that the track record and trades have been placed at SFX which does not have the burden of needing to keep to the rule of law, the lack of transparency of live trades points to the possibility of a Ponzi scheme.

I think all investors would like their strategies to be genuine as the numbers have been very good. It would be great if they are genuine. However the signs point to the risk of it possibly being otherwise.

Yet you can also use Hantec, and swiss quote with them and its the same behaviour and they have no dealings with the guys
