    Possible scam?

    "No Money No Honey" in many of these cases. How to tell if you won't get kidnapped and ransomed by her gang of brothers if you meet her in a 'private setting'? from around the 8th minute onwards - might be a fun watch.. Of course she could be fully legit. But until you truly know, never go...

    Turning EA off in turbulent times

    So I would suggest you test your EA through extreme conditions like the periods I mentioned above. Some EAs can indeed be stopped (e.g. scalpers that don't typically hold a position for more than a few minutes or hours and you don't have any 'open' positions); but others aren't so easy (e.g...

    Turning EA off in turbulent times

    When I backtest EAs, I typically test them through the GFC and Covid periods (beginning around March 2007 through now) - because I want to see how the EAs perform under extreme conditions. Although past performance can never be a guarantee of future performance, it gives me greater comfort to...

    Complaint involving Multis - suspected Key To Markets Limited fraud

    Lost all my savings - Is it possible to recovery any money from brokers? Please evaluate.

    This is true. It is a sad fact of this world, and a bad indictment on humanity, that there will always be people who will seek to take advantage of the vulnerable and the confused. Just like picking a surgeon for yourself before you go for that spine operation, I would if I were you be...

    Will IC Markets Honor my SL on my XTIUSD Trade??

    As far as I know, IC Markets doesn't typically assign an "account manager" or "relationship manager" with its retail traders. They have far too may such traders and can't afford to. That has been my experience so far. OMI

    Tickmill is a biggest Scam Broker !! Stay Away !!

    I'm sorry you feel this way about the FPA folks. I'm sure you feel like you suffered a grave injustice; but even then, if you allege, you should be prepared to prove - can you prove that FPA folks received remuneration from Tickmill? If they did, why would they still leave lots of angry rants...

    FPMarkets problem

    Did you clearly indicate which MT4 account number you wanted the monies to be allocated to, on your wire transmission? If not, it would likely end up in their "unallocated funds" bucket, and then their funding team would have to try and mix and match your funds with potentially many others.

    Discuss GMIEdge.com (Global Prime Limited)

    In the spirit of transparency it would be super interesting for Global Prime to show some org chart about their relationship with Gleneagles and the following: "GMI Edge is the trading name of Global Prime Limited, a regulated and licensed Dealer in Securities by the Vanuatu Financial Services...
