Global Prime review - regulations, trading platforms, broker features, and user ratings.

I have been trading with Global Prime for about a year now. I've used many brokers over the years and a good CFD broker is hard to find, and usually a direct access broker is a better option by far. However, a good CFD broker can give a trader an edge through savings on execution costs and banking fees.

This is why I use Global Prime. They allow me to make trade after trade with no execution fees on EU/ US Index positions. Using fractional positions, scaling in and out without commissions gives me a winning advantage. I often get positive slippage and never get a void or delayed trade when entering a market order. The liquidity is always there, even outside cash hours. Execution is instant. The platform I use is Trader Evolution and it's never crashed (I trade each day), incredible!

I use Paypal to withdraw and deposit. It has never been a problem and again, there is no cost. The money always arrives the next day and from my paypal account I send it to my bank account.

I highly recommend these guys. By far the best service I've received in the industry and I have absolutely no intention of looking elswhere.

I had intense email communication with Global Prime today explaining the whole scenario. That should have happened yesterday instead of letting me wait for 1 day...
As mentioned earlier the agreed to bear the costs for the mistake they made...
All in all there conditions are good. Also they are a regulated broker.

But they have to work on the way how to communicate a mistake on their behalf to the client. That was upsetting.
But all solved and I might keep trading with them.

Jul 20, 2022 - 1 Star I started trading with Global Prime last week and had some good profittable trades on UK oil. So yesterday I requested withdrawals to get my profits out.
I wouldn't believe my eyes when they wrote me an email today, all withdrawals frozen due to some miss calculation on swaps. The swaps going LONG on UK oil on Friday night were pretty simular to the ones on Thursday night, Wednesday night or to the ones they have today.

Wednesday Swap: 11.71400
Thursday Swap: 13.54300
Friday Swap: 16.93300
Today Swap: 14.22900

They can't tell me what was wrong, they don't know how long the investigation will take, no answers, no communication. Just I'm not getting my funds!

Guys, DON'T TOUCH THAT BROKER. They come back to you after few days and wanna steal money from you. SCAM ALERT!!!

I've been using Global Prime for about 4 months and I've been loving it!! I personally like to trade on Tradingview, so I really like that I can trade on Tradingview with Global Prime. Low spreads, great and quick customer service, good leverage, what else can I ask? Highly recommended!!
Global Primeを使い始めて4ヶ月になりますが、とても良いですね。FX始めて１年半色々なブローカーを試しましたが、個人的には一番好きです。Tradingviewでトレードできること、レバレッジも100倍まである、スプレッドは低い、カスタマーサービスは速くて丁寧、言うことなしですね！日本のクレジットカードだとドル建てのアカウントは使えないみたいですが、連絡すると円建てのアカウントを開いてくれます。とにかくオススメです！

I requested a withdrawal last month which was taking longer than usual, and since the first contact with them they were very supportive and thorough until I got the money back.

In the end, it turned out to be the bank's fault.

Mar 2, 2022 - 1 Star It has been more 19 days since I requested a withdrawal via card, max time to get the money back in my card was 10 days.

They say i should talk to my bank and gave me ARN codes, but my bank says there are no deposits in transit.

I began trading with them since they're supposed to be an a-book broker with no conflict of interest with the client, but it took 1 day to get a withdrawal with FBS.

I can't believe this is happening, specially since they have 4.74 rating on FPA.

STAY AWAY!!

Posted the previous review in haste. Turns out it was all just a miscommunication.

The email I received from GP said that I had to "close all positions as they could no longer server me as a client" - but their management clarified that this timeframe for ending the service is not immediate and may be long into the future. In the meantime, GP is happy to keep me on as a client, so I'm happy :)

Apparently, it stems from some legal suit of an unrelated firm with Ontario, making Ontario a high-risk venture for brokers.

As the saying goes, "it's not the mistakes you make, but how you resolve them that matters" and GP did an excellent job of resolving this.

5 stars and A+ !!!

Mar 26, 2022 - 1 Star I have been using a Global Prime Live Account for over 5 years - since they were a small, unknown broker. In this time I have had a mostly positive experience with them and have contributed on their Discord forums, etc. Was even interviewed about my trading Algo and methodology to create content for their YouTube channel.

Recently, they emailed me to inform that I should "wind down all my trades and close my account", since they cannot serve clients in Ontario, Canada.

They apparently stopped taking applications from Ontario many years ago (after I applied), but were happy to take my commissions and my contributions to their growth this whole time without letting me know that one day my account would be axed.

I feel so used and swindled. You have been warned.

Jan 4, 2019 - 5 Stars Was with Questrade for 2 years (because I had other investments with them, so it was easy to get MT4 setup). They shut down their MT4 support in mid-2017 so I did quite extensive research before settling on Global Prime (GP).

I was immediately struck by how much more tick data came through - almost instantaneous updates of market conditions. I also liked the structure of low-spreads + a commission instead of the fees bundled into the spreads like most brokers do. Way more transparency that way.

I also liked the funding method (through NAB I believe) which allows me to fund with a credit card.

The icing on the cake was this past week with the JPY "flash-crash". GP stayed open the whole time and I was able to trade around the event. I read horror stories of users with other brokers being locked out of their accounts, etc. It seemed that all of my stops were also honored with minimal slippage - fantastic! Lastly, although I came out ahead after the crash, there was a period where my account was in negative balance and GP did not force close my trades - unlike other brokers.

So after a year+ with GP, I would say I am thoroughly pleased.
