No complaint at all. Good customer service; very helpful. Their platform is stable, no hiccup. Deposit & withdrawal process also smooth.
I have been with Valutrades for about 6-7 months. So far, I have had an excellent experience with them. I have withdrawn a couple of times and always received the money within a day or two. I trade only EUR/USD, and the spread is typically less than 0.3 pips. Totally satisfied with Valutrades's services. I would like to recommend Valutrades to all traders.
Trading is painful with Valutrades platform, As I got full of errors and slow execution with fake price quotes. So my profitable orders didn’t close when the position touched to TP. Besides, I am unable to withdraw my $500 investment through Skrill. So I say Valutrades platform is a market maker broker.
Valutrades has never disappointed me. For a year I'm trading with them, I always pleased with the services they provide. I like to trade with them because they have a good trading platform which is working great, also their trading conditions are good and profitable for traders. I'm trading in some major currencies such as EUR/USD, GBP/USD, and GBP/CHF. Everything is working smoothly since I started trading with them. The platform is stable with instant order executions, no slippage, also spread is fixed. I have nothing to complain about them. I feel comfortable and enjoying my trading with Valutrades.
I want to share my most horrible experience about Valutrades broker. I have been using Valutrades about 2 months. On 14 January, I was opened s short order manually on EUR/JPY pair. Next day morning when I was login into my platform, I saw that there were 8 long position in my account. In that occurrence, I lost about $440 just in one day. When I get in touch with their support about this matter, they told me that, all of positions opened by EA. How it does possible; believe me I never use EA in my platform. I was very frustrated. Do not open account with Valutrades, Learn from my situation.
My brother encouraged me to open an account at Valutrades. He has been investing on this broker for a while now and he seems to be having a great experience. Since I am also interested in Forex trading, I decided to start my own account. Indeed, the experience is great. I have my brother to consult whenever I am confused but if you do not know anyone who is knowledgeable in trading, no need to worry because the broker itself will assist you.
