5 star review by antonioinfantino, Italy

low spreads - low slippage - excellent assistance. The spread is the lowest of all ecn brokers. I compared the slippage with 20 brokers and AAAFX is the lowest. The only broker with negative spreads. Five Stars.

I got scammed!

Service use: Live Length of use: 3-6 Months
I requested a withdrawal a couple weeks ago. It said it would take 2-3 business days. On the 3rd business day after the money still was not in my bank account I went to log into my account and I couldn’t! My login info was not recognized. I’ve been told multiple times that there is no record of me having an account with you guys. When I saw on this forum that other people had experienced the same thing my stomach sank.
I hope by writing this review I’ll get some help here and get all of my money out of this account!

Issue revolved

Service use: Live Length of use: 6-12 Months
After some emails back and forth, aaafx has paid out my profits. They are actually trustworthy afterall.

Sep 20, 2023 - 1 Star I traded with aaafx for 8 months,and was lucky enaugh to make some profits. I never heard a thing from them all that time. Then when I made a withdrawal request, I received an email that my trading had been abusive and so they removed all my profits. They never bothered to show me any evidence. It is typical behavior of a bucket shop broker. I will continue with filing a complaint with the financial regulator. Please stay away if you’re looking for an honest serious broker.

Last post

Service use: Live Length of use: 0-3 Months
I am updating the last post on where i had dificulties on withdrawing from AAAFX.they called me some days after telling me why my withdrawals was not going through as i was trying to withdrwa the same way i deposited.they explained to me everything i wanted to understand and i am convinced they are not as bad as i saw,just that they did not explain samething on the email as we talked.i will keep trading with them as is working well for the person who recommended me to and see if it will work for me like him,i will keep updating.

May 15, 2023 - 1 Star I advice my fellow country not to take chance of this broker, please stay away from this broker.i deposited some funds into AAAFX trading account so easly with bank account. when i try to withdraw they toled me that i shud use neteller or skrill to withdraw hance they said clients can easly withdraw their funds the way they deposited. they will recomend u to use a diferent mode of payment knowing that it will be complecated for u withdraw since most of people are not used to other mode of payments. and there are higher fees where they will recomend u to. i am really disappointed. BOTSWANA from experience just try other brokers.

Free vps is goodfor cutting costs

Service use: Other
A minor Felton trading can cost a fortune AAAFX HAS GOOD LATENCEY AND EXECUTION speed is fast i experience a lot of loadsheading and most times it is unannounced.
For this reason I connected my Mts and expert advisor to AAAFX are not free vps services vps I services are not a free with most broker and I saw that they are also sold on MOL5 for significant amount of money.it made sense to me use AAAFX because I have an EU. They offer free VPs and I experience unannounced load shedding
They way whenever I have no electricity I know my bot will kee producing dividends because it is connected to VPS. Service

recommend AAAFx

Service use: Live Length of use: 3-6 Months
I have been trading with AAAFX since 2019. I am not a fan of changing brokers etc. Their bank wire withdrawals are processed within 2 - 4 working days. It would be preferable if it was 1 working day like what other brokers offer but this broker offers fast order executions .

You can't have everything but I like that all my withdrawals have been processed without any unnecessary hurdles. I recommend AAAFx

AAAFx scam broker manipulated slippage and spread widening

Service use: Live Length of use: 3-6 Months
Do not use this broker its a broker that belongs to Zulutrade.
They have the highest spreads in the market 50-60 pips for gold , eurusd 15-20 pips
This is not a true ecn broker, they are constantly manipulating prices on their platform and tend to cause artificial slippage when opening positions + artificial spread widening. executing your order at a slightly worse price.
Your interests are NOT aligned with those AAAFx!!! avoid them.

Does not credit my account after a week

Service use: Live
It has been a week since I deposited USD$500 via Skrill to my AAAFX account.
The amount has been deducted from my Skrill account but money was not deposited into my AAAFX account.

Chat with the customer service several times and all they could do is ask me to wait.

The customer service also mentioned that I have not submitted my documents for verification and setup my bank account for withdrawal.

Well, all has been setup now but I still do not see my coming coming into the account.

This funding operation is bad. How can money not be credited to account after so many days? The timeline written on your website states 1 day to process the funds.

Be carefull because they have a 25 eur fee on withdraw with bank transfert, deposits are free of fees but not withdrawal , with credit cards is free but u have to pay more then 2% each deposits , I avoided it because i want to withdraw every month and i dont want to pay such high fees, there are better options out there

Terrible Withdrawal Policy

Service use: Live Length of use: 0-3 Months
I join AAAFX for ZuluTrade social trading.
My Account number is 31881.
I was deposit 335.21 (after paying the charge, however, there was no fee for BTC deposit)
Then I make a 19.65 USD profit.
I decided to withdraw some money and asked them about withdrawal.
They said I have to add a bank to withdraw my funds.
I have been trading forex around 6 years and I know AML policy.
I always used the same gateway for withdrawal.
I asked them to send funds the same way I deposit in same BTC wallet.
They said they can only proceed with the bank.
I feel bad and decided to withdraw all funds.
I withdraw 354.86 USD and I got 280 USD in my bank.
They send me an invoice and I can see there was 11.74 USD charged but there was another hidden fee in their end.
For make sure I called my bank manager and he said this is the amount we receive on your behalf, sir.
I am a freelancer as well and I make bank transfer several times.
I never experience such a fee in my life.
They have so-called live support and I asked them about the fee and they said, "there is no additional fee.
My question is if they charged that much on bank withdrawal why they send funds in a bank account? or maybe this is the only way they make a profit (They have wide spreads as well)
Why don't they follow AML policy?
A broker can do whatever they want?
If anyone reading this review before trading with them I suggest they try to avoid it otherwise you will experience a huge loss even after making a profit.
But if you plan never to withdraw your funds then it will be alright.
You can see digit that never can reach in your bank.
