Scam or Not!
the advice I always give to my friends when choosing a trading platforms are:-
1. Check their Registration.
2. Check whether they have withdrawals policies under different countries. Example If you live in Canada & trading with a non Us registered Co. There will always be issues & delays with withdrawing.
3. Always verify your a/c before starting to trade.
4. Never accept the Bonus options, If you do, always check their withdrawal policies. Example you might have to trade 30 times for every $1 they give you as bonus.
And above all, NEVER choose a trader based on online reviews because they are just marketing stuff, created to fool you. Always seek advice with someone who is actually trading.
