Worst broker ever in 2021

Service use: Live Length of use: 0-3 Months
Opened an account with them after verification, they force you to always communicate with the account manager if not the disable your account. Who does that. Worst experience with scopemarkets

SCAM, Worst unstable servers, don't risk your money with Scopemarkets Kenya

Service use: Live Length of use: 3-6 Months
I hate all the customer service on scopemarkets kenya, especially one scumbug by the name Rufas Kamau, that kikuyu guy running scopemarkets kenya telegram channel is another scam, blocks everyone telling him the truth, who will never help you once you encounter a problem with their broker, he will block you instead, what kind of admin does that in 2021
They have the worst unstable servers in the world, spreads widen when you open a trade
Their MT5 is trash too, don't risk your money with this poor scams.
They don't offer all assets, you can't even trade bitcoin, make love with this broker
During news their currencies are more volatile than other brokers, your stoploss might get jumped
Worst scams in kenya is scopemarkets
Don't try this terrible broker
If you think i'm wrong go ahead and try them

Good experience

Service use: Live
I had a good experince with them, excellent customer support, a wide variety of instruments to trade like fx, indices and shares, and good spreads. However, they should try to register and be regulated in reputable jurisdictions like Singapore, EU, UK to earn newbies' trust.

Scope Markets 5 stars from me and here is why

I am a real/live client of Scope Markets, MT4 account number 34898. In the times when most people end up being scammed for their deposits, lied to over the phone for unrealistic profits, cold-called, harassed via phone/email with hi-pressure sales from various boiler-rooms world wide, Scope Markets, from my personal experience for the past several months :
1. processed my withdrawal via card in 2 business days, so before deadline
2. executed trades normally (not every price/slippage is broker's fault)
3. took the time to actually apply its KYC /AML, not allowing me to deposit until account is completely verified
4. answered every question I had via Live Chat Support in timely manner, in general responded to my emails also on time (depending on the issue, off course)

I use an external money manager for my account and everything works fine. This IS NOT a scam broker. Prices, execution speed, etc can be debated as there are other brokers on the market, but transparency and honesty should not be questioned. This is a good and reliable company that meets my needs. If one has a good trader, then Scope is a easy and powerful tool to facilitate trading., with reasonable fees.

Slippage, Stophunting, high trading costs

Please stay away from ScopeMarkets, because of high trading costs, stop hunting and because they are working together with scam multi level marketing companys like Global Takeover.

Dont trade with them

i have trading with scope markets for over a year now
and changing between strategies
and i finally started making money scalping the news
with over 6 months of success and no slippage at all
the company decides to give me some action with slippage
(why the sudden slippage )
they trigger my buy stop at a price the market did not reach nor the candle or any other server
and my accounts went to -2900 $
when i email them ( it takes them 24 hours to reply to my email )
they ( to shut me up) say that out of there goodwill
will remove some of my slippage ( so that my account becomes -18$ only )
after going back and forth with the emails
they said i was gaining an unfair advantage scalping the news
even thou scalping is allowed
but they realized that they are losing money and they decide to slip the system to stop me from trading
it would have been much nicer of them to email me telling me to stop scalping ( after one year of being a loyal customer)
they don't want you to profit , and they lie to you in the emails
and they are pure scam

my order was filled @1.35048
even thou the market didnt reach that price
and my buy stop was put at 1.3460

Dear Mr PRIVATE CLIENT INFO REMOVED,

We are sorry that you are not satisfied with our services.

Please be informed that your inquiry was subject to investigation and it has concluded that there was not wrongdoing on behalf of the Company.

Kindly note that slippage is likely to occur during periods of high volatility. As per the definition of stop order, it is triggered when market touches the price and stop order turns to market order. On stop orders, slippage is possible, especially during data times. When we checked your trade, during data time, USDCAD jumped and filled with slippage, at the same second market turned back and your position stopped out. During data times, such moves are considered as market conditions.

We do not guarantee the execution of your Pending Orders at the price specified during Slippage. However, we confirm that your Order will be executed at the next best available market price from the price you have specified under your pending Order.

For further assistance, please contact our Support Team at customersevice@scopemarkets.com

Best Regards,
Scope Markets Team
