• 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
Appalled is completely wrong. Brian is not your trader, but most probably a sub-trader who has cloned Brian’s trades.

Brian does not have any swing or open trades, and I would advise Appalled to contact GNTFX and enquire under which PowerTrader he registered when he opened his account.

Brian is one of the best and conservative traders I have ever had the pleasure to meet. Unfortunately, he is not your trader.
 
Dear JJRC,
I have been with Brian since October 2015. I agree with you.
How can I speak with you directly?
 
As per my post regarding FlipSideFX.com, my experience is:

I totally agree with Appalled and schlaepfi

Brian Thomson, GNTFX, FlipSideFX.com and anyone guise/name they operate under should be avoided, as you'll never see your money again.

I am posting this message in the hope that I prevent others from experiencing the emotional roller coaster I have been through.

A brief explanation of my experience is below:
When I opened my GNTFX PowerTrader account I categorically stated I only wanted to see the same trades as the published FlipSideFX.Com trades and nothing else whilst accepting there maybe a little slippage.
I saw my modest investment double in the first 3 months, so I requested a withdrawal, only to be told there were open positions which I couldn't see (a GNTFX fudge!) which were taking up margin.
I waited another 3 months, saw my account had now doubled again, so requested a withdrawal and received the same response, however, this time I managed to get some details of the trades which were open.
I continued to see weekly gains and my account in theory grew to more than 7x my original deposit; however, these alien swing trades were still in the background and therefore no funds were able to be withdrawn.
As the alien swing trades were long positions taken on the GBPUSD pair at ridiculously large size, especially for a swing trade, the day of the 'Brexit' referendum results wiped out not only all my account's gains but 97% of my original deposit too, so effectively a 99.6% drawdown!


I now see there is another website offering exactly the same 'opportunities' as FlipSideFX.com, which is FXTurtleTrader.com. It shows the identical video history and is also using the GNTFX.com PowerTrader mechanism, so I'm assuming the same person/people are behind FXTurtleTrader.com.

I realise I shall never see the monies I deposited returned to me, and I post this purely in the hope that I protect other people's hard earned money.
