i was scammed and lost over $63,000 from this broker. My Account Manager(broker) kept on telling me to invest more, but my profits kept on going down the drain. When i asked to withdraw the little i had left which was a little over $12,000 they refused to approve my withdrawal and kept on trading until it got to $241.
my money was gone until awhile back when i met Dr Blake Hopkins. I got most of my monies back. Now i trade without risk and full guarantee of my withdrawals. God bless you Dr. Blake ([email protected]).
Dear mia moura,
The above-described case could not occur as all clients' withdrawals are processed successfully. Please, provide your account number, otherwise
your charges will be considered baseless. If you would like to advertise your account manager or broker, we kindly ask you to do it in your thread.

Best regards,

Results of "Classic without borders" Contest

rezclassic2EN.jpg


"Classic without borders" - a free Forex competition on demo accounts - came to a close on December 1. For two weeks, more than 1450 traders were actively competing in the contest for the prize fund of 2,000 USD. The contest ended with a phenomenal result in the history of the ForexCup contests: the best trader under the nickname malchish was able to increase his starting deposit of $5000 by more than 61 thousand percent to $2.5 million. More details on the contest results and the complete list of winners are available here.
 
Yes, it's good to take 2000 dollars, but still the contest is bad, 1450 of the trader and this is a small fund.
You can join "ForeXmas" contest with a prize fund of $3000 and become one of 40 best winners. Also, you can try our PAMM contests (like this one) as a master with a larger prize fund. We don't offer Lamborghini as a prize like some other brokers do.
