Large win? Section 1.4.b.v lets Startrader legally remove your funds!

I deposited, traded RIVN, then requested a withdrawal. The withdrawal was later reversed. Startrader then took all of my profit from my only ever trade from my balance which was now just sitting in cash in my account and labelled it as "Cash Adjustment - PNL". Support said my activity was “suspicious/high-risk” and pointed to Section 1.4.b.v of the Client Agreement (and promo T&Cs).Read that clause carefully. In plain English, Section 1.4.b.v gives the company broad discretion to void orders, cancel profits, and recover losses if they decide your trading breaches their rules. In practice, that means they can legally remove money from your account after the fact by citing that clause.I also noticed other public reviews describing profits being removed under Section 1.4.b. I’m not the only one. Check recent reviews and decide for yourself.This is my personal experience. If you’re considering this broker, go in with your eyes open and understand how Section 1.4.b.v can be applied.My account number is 9079730.Here is the last correspondence I received from Startrader from 8 months ago stating why they are legally able to keep my money I have trusted them with. I have not received anything further from them since this email:Dear Client,We are writing to notify you that we have identified suspicious and/or high-risk trading activities on your trading account.We have valid reasons to believe that some of your trading activities constitute suspicious trading activity, as defined in the Client Agreement, in the same time, your trading activities also violated the terms and conditions of the promotion.In accordance with Section 1.4.b.v of the Client Agreement and the terms and conditions of the promotion, the Company, at its discretion, is authorized to take any necessary actions it deems appropriate, as such practices are neither encouraged nor tolerated.We want to make it clear that we reserve the right to take immediate action, which may include the termination of your trading account.
