So far, March closed with +13% and Apr is at -4%, remember that I took the aggressive mode, the other risks modules will differ from those results.

Have anyone tried their fix plan? Somehow this seems like a MLM pyramid scam investment scheme which promises one a monthly return of 1-3% as long as u invest for a fix duration on the promise that you will not lose any $$$ at all.

This seem highly skeptical as no proper fund in this world would promise a positive return with no risk involved.

Who know that sfx markets will close down and run away with the fund, leaving investoe with nothing at all, once they have gathered enough $$$ from this scheme?

I can't find that Fix plan.Can you post a link? Thank you

It would be a huge red flag. Anyone promising a fix monthly return of 1-3% with no loss has to be a scammer.

Did you also have to open the account-type "Invest" for Hyper-FX?

sfx-markets.com/trading/accounts

On the link above it's says that the minimal investment for "invest" is only 500$

When you log in into SFX-Markets and want to open a new account, it is a minimal Deposit of 1000$, even for the Mix-Strategy.

Then again on the Nordhill Capital website they write that the minimal amount for Hyper-FX is 5000$.

That is very confusing.

I agree, but see Swissquote for instance, they are regulated by FCA and FINMA and it's a very reputable broker, so yeh, not always it's a good sign, but in this case, I see as a good one. I see that at least SFX is doing a lot of improvements, during the crash in the market from the SNB in January 2015, I was with Alpari Uk and my money got blocked for 6 months, and with SFX nothing happened

I had an account with Swissquote about 10 years ago, until the stock market crashed in 2008.
I didn't think that the website was very userfriendly then, and they had very high commissions for stocks.
At that time they didn't have any Forex.
But they aquired AC-Markets later in 2011, which didn't have the best service and reputation.

https://www.forexpeacearmy.com/public/review/www.ac-markets.com

Maybe they did some improvements since then, I don't know.
During the CHF-Crash they lost around 25'000'000 $, and they were not too friendly with customers in debt after that.

But they are still around after the crash which is a good sign.
and they are very active on recruting new customers on financial expos within Switzerland and other countries.

Not sure about the service at Hantec. Users at FPA don't seem to like it, but its regulated.

As far as I understand with Nordhill Capital you can use you own regulated broker (with better spreads),
I asked them if I could use JFD Brokers. They would accept JFD, but it had to be at least a 50000$ investment.

And any broker that did manage well during the SNB-Bomb would be also a good choice.

Ask them and u will get the fix plan. Its previously advertised under sfx-fund but now its hidden from public sight.

They are still having the fixed plan. Except that they dont disclosed unless u request for it.

Strange that this riskless plan is ONLY available under their very own broker sfx-markets. They do not accept other brokers for this plan.

FINMA or FCA alone is better than SVGFSA or Cysec together (and the Cysec is still in the works). The Alpari block was due to bankruptcy. Had a SVG company gone under the money could have just evaporated instead of being blocked.

I agree 1000%, during the SNB unpeggy announcement, the brokers that failed bankruptcy in Australia and New Zealand weren't able to pay their clients, some of them even asked clients to pay the losses generated on their accounts, while in UK, the FCA protected the clients up to GBP 50K, so I knew my capital was protected, it took 6 months, but I got my capital back.

That's why I don't plan to leave a large amount of capital on SFX Markets, although they're being quite good and didn't have any problems during the SBN announcement, once I have enough funds managed by Nordhillcapital, I'll transfer my funds to Hantec Markets to be under FCA rules.

Hi Rayzzz, I can't find the fix plan you're talking about, if Nordhillcapital was promising fix returned, I'd be the first one to issue a red flag.

Nordhill never promises return on investment and all the risks involved are cleared explained on their website, including the 4 types of risks modules.

The funds are not held by SFX Markets, the funds are on a segregate bank accounts under the investor's name, managed in this case by Nordhill and only the investor has access to the capital, therefore, if they "close down and runway" as you said, they don't hold your capital, they simply can't do that.
