This firm should be avoided by any trader who expects transparency, consistency, or to actually receive their profits.
After making $12,616 in profit, my payout was denied and my account was terminated using retrospective and highly subjective rule interpretations. Trades were suddenly classified as “news trading” because they occurred during the World Economic Forum (WEF) Annual Meetings — an event that is not a scheduled, time-specific high-impact economic release like CPI, NFP, FOMC rate decisions, or GDP. This was never clearly defined as restricted news beforehand.
Standard directional trading was also labelled as “one-sided betting,” despite the fact that all trades used fixed lot sizes, defined risk, and independent entries and exits. There was no martingale, no grid, no risk-doubling, and no drawdown circumvention. Simply opening multiple trades in the same direction was enough for them to invalidate profits after the account became profitable.
Requests for clarification and a manual review were dismissed, with the decision relying on broad and inconsistent interpretations rather than clearly written, objective rules. Once the account showed meaningful profit, the rules were reinterpreted, the $12,616 was confiscated, and the account was closed.
This creates a strong impression that payout denial is part of the business model, not risk management. Traders should be extremely cautious — profitability appears to trigger disqualification rather than reward.
If you value clear rules, fair enforcement, and actually receiving your money, trade elsewhere. There are far more reputable firms in this industry. Avoid.
