Is there a way to tell whether a given MT4/5 account is a LIVE or DEMO one, e.g. by just looking at the MT Account# or Order#? Or is there other attribute(s) we can look out for to identify the difference in a given Daily/Monthly Statement??
Also, can we tell if an account is of MT4 or MT5 platform by just seeing the Account# or Order#? |

You can't check by MT4 account number or order number. MT4 account number can be any numbers set by the brokers.

If some traders posting or sharing their MT4/5 statements to show their trading performance for our reference, I believe such statement or statistics won't indicate the type of login server of the account, will it? If so, we won't be able to verify it, apart from giving it the benefit of the doubt. It's always much more interesting or rather convincing to see trading performance of a LIVE account instead of a DEMO one, isn't it?? |

They have both fake manipulated investment and retail traders for normal trading.That's already a red flag. End of the day, any performance showed must be Live account from top tier brokers. Myfxbook will be the easier way to see everything. |

QUOTE(terrytan @ Jan 14 2021, 09:29 PM) Actually that was my original question, how to tell or see if an MT4/5 account is a DEMO or LIVE one. I don't think we can see the type of login server being used, of which I believe such detail is usually not stated on typical MT4/5 trading statement etc. So it makes more sense to me that if we can see some Withdrawal activity on the account, which logically can only be done on a LIVE account as pointed out by cmk96, unless some may have the will and means to fake that statement on that part too. As you highlighted, having access to Myfxbook could be one way of seeing that detail too, especially on the Withdrawal part. I guess it's not possible or not easy to fake/manipulate that part on Myfxbook , right? haha The psychology and mindset of trading a demo and live account can be vastly different!

If cant, mean demo. And also make sure it is a live account of a top tier broker.The psychology and mindset of trading a demo and live account can be vastly different! |

QUOTE(DrFX @ Nov 14 2015, 05:16 AM) How To Check Is the Forex Broker Genuine BTW, I just read in TheEdge today that "The Securities Commission Malaysia’s (SC) updated investor alert list now includes nine additional entities comprising FXCM, Investopedia, AMC Management & Services, Infinox, DS Investment, Cappacity Fx Trading, Bitto Exchange Pte Ltd, Jebat Crypto and Esmash Investment Plan." What sort of trader would not like the assistance of a broker that he can rely on? Most new traders struggle to find a genuine forex broker who is transparent and provides a great forex trading experience. There are several reasons for this, but one of the major reasons is the mindset of the traders themselves. As most new traders are lured into the forex game through a fake forex broker as an easy way to make money, they have a wrong image about the forex market and hence do not know how to get long term success. Most of us know that forex is one of the most volatile markets in the world, and due to its floating nature, the prices of the currencies cannot be predicted. But the question of how to identify weather a forex broker is genuine or not depends on several factors. You can also check the various internet websites like forexstars and other to get reviews about the various forex brokers. Here are some ways how you can check the authenticity of a forex broker. MAKE SURE THE FOREX BROKER IS WELL REGULATED Only trade or invest with top tier licensed brokers/banks who are under tier 1 and 2 licenses for highest protection. For example, in the event of a Swiss broker/bank bankruptcy, traders and investors are given up to CHF100k capital protection. Tier 1 licenses under: US NFA, UK FCA, SWISS FINMA, JAPAN FSA, SINGAPORE MAS. Tier 2 licenses under: European financial regulators, Australia ASIC, Canada IIROC. AVOID UNREGULATED BROKERS OR OFFSHORE REGULATED BROKERS (Vanuatu, Seychelles, St. Vincent, Belize, Indonesia etc) Traders and investors can check with their corresponding regulatory agencies that check the credibility of the forex brokers. They include the National Futures Association (NFA) and Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) in the United States, Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) in the United Kingdom, Australian Securities and Investment Commission (ASIC), Swiss Federal Banking Commission (SFBC) and FINMA, Bundesanstalt für Finanzdienstleistungsaufsicht (BaFIN) in Germany and Autorité des Marchés Financiers (AMF) in France. Analyze the Website We all know that in this age of peerless internet technology, coming across fake content is totally possible and one must first check the website first for a clear picture of the reviews. Some websites are meant not for the viewers but an organization’s attempt at getting more affiliates. In such cases you have to judge for yourself whether the reviews are real or are posted through automated software to get more viewers. Check the Comment Box Some sites are highly moderated along with the viewer’s comments that appear on the website due to the fear of spam. If a website allows regular users to comment on their posts that is a great sign of openness. But if your comment doesn’t appear immediately on the website and is stuck in the moderation phase forever, you certainly do not want to waste a lot of time reading your reviews on such a website. Several times unanswered comment boxes also indicate the website’s poor activity. Only Promote Genuine Reviews There are several websites that post a review and also refer the viewer to a broker’s website as several broker’s pay the sites to promote themselves. While there is nothing wrong in referrals, the viewers must also use their full discretion when it comes to judging whether the reviews are genuine or not. Try to avoid websites that also provide a referral link in a review that also redirects the user to the broker’s webpage. Transparency Is A Must The best way to know whether your forex broker is a fake one or not, is to look for his list of clients. While several fake brokers might tell you that it is against the law to disclose such information, the reality is the total opposite and no genuine broker would be afraid to share the list of his clients. Genuine brokers use their network of traders more as their work portfolio and you can always judge the authenticity of a broker through the profiles of the various clients and traders that he deals with. More transparency in a broker’s activities will instill more faith in the clients. Look At How The Broker Works While this would be like judging a book from its cover, forex brokers can be judged based on how they deal with their clients. If the forex broker holds each client’s funds in a segregated account approved by the traders, then it is quiet likely that you’re working with a genuine broker. Make sure that the broker has a valid proof of operating under a government regulation. Check the Broker’s Portfolio After you have checked how the broker works and the long list of his client’s, you still need to see if the clients are earning regular profits or not. Doing a short background check on how the various traders are performing with a particular broker is one of the best ways to know a broker’s authenticity. Forex is a highly fluctuating market and to ensure profits one requires having a really keen eye and a really honest forex broker. Forex trading is a risky business and requires a lot of experience and skills, to earn profits over a long term period. Hence it is highly important that the new traders must check the genuineness of a broker to experience a non-stressful forex trading environment. Indication of SCAMs: 1. FIX RETURN (SCAM) 2.

If you can't take out your money, file a report or complaint to your local regulator. In most cases, it does not help as scam brokers do not hold any licenses and end up regulators unable to trace them. Feel free to share your experiences with any other brokers and allow us to add on to above lists. Based on all the information we provided, i hope it helps new FX investors or traders to differentiate and identify real/scam FX. We welcome everyone who required due diligence or advise to check the genuineness of a FX brokers. After all, it's FOC. Moderator, please do not move this topic to join with general Forex spread as it will served as a WARNING to those new to Forex. Thank you. Furthermore, the same article (dated 27 Jan 2021) also reports that "Among the newly-added entities, the SC claimed that FXCM and Investopedia were "carrying on unregulated activities”. "The SC, however, did not specify the nature of the unregulated activities. The SC claimed that Investopedia is a “possible clone offering high returns of RM26,500 for a minimum investment of RM1,500”. So perhaps this thread starter may have to update the list too?? |

Hi, I have recently invested to tfxi.com or tfxi2.com
I attached my funds to PAMM Yuri, been getting 8% return monthly. Some of my friends have been using the platform for 6 years. The return seems too good to be true. May I know is it genuine? |
