There's a next review date, I can only assume that Samtrade no longer holds an asic license. Due to this " Notification of Cessation of Agency (404B)"

And also ASIC has stipulated all Forex brokers to hold a valid Australian Financial Services License (AFSL), which brings them directly under the ASIC regulation.

Somehow dont see samtrade under afsl unlike XM

As a current user of SamtradeFX i was a quite concerned on this too.

I did some clarification with their support, i was told that their ASIC is now with the entity name of "SAMTRADE (AUSTRALIA) PTY LTD".

As for FCA. The previous FCA license was under 3rd party therefore they're in the processing of getting a new FCA.

Was also told that they are now pending for MAS, which was why the MLM feature was removed from the brokerage.

I am amazed by the love crush on samtradefx. Money must be good to the point that  No amount of proof can wake people up

Just sharing my findings, so far things has been doing quite well and withdrawals are fast.

I was referred by a friend who know Sam personally, so thats why i had a certain level of trust.

Of course i shouldnt put my money based on that simple trust, thats why im validating all their licenses and also monitoring them regularly.



Regarding the manipulation of data, im not sure if your argument is valid as i did a cross check on their trades yesterday.

Based on the time of entry and SP, they were more or less similar to other broker (compared to IG). There are difference in price, but is very minor almost non relevant



Do you personally have other bad experience with SamTradeFX? please do share ya

Mr. SamTradeFX,

You dont have to pretend you are someone else but trying hard to post a review here.

SamTradeFX is a FX SCAM. That's all!

== Do you need my phone number to chat and proof lol.

Anway im here to gather personal experiences with SamtradeFX (more of wanting to gather bad/scam experiences)

Dude, you didn't do what I said, so please don't act as if you have debunked my "allegations"

Screen record both samtradefx and another broker's data feed and then post your videos here.

There were posts many pages ago that showed the trades on samtradefx were executed at price outside of what market was offering. If that is not fraud, then I don't know what is.

I dont get the need to record the screen.

Wont the comparison of SP at the time of entry/exit be enough to tell?

Are you investing on this FAKE FX?
https://www.myfxbook.com/members/ositek/fin888/6083397

If no, then self trading will not show any different with other brokers.

Im not with fin888, used to be, but due to recent changes for compliance with MAS we have move to another copy trader.

Sorry but to clarify, so its fin888 or SamtradeFX that is fake ?

Both are fake. FIN888 is using SamTradeFX platform.

Ok, i will be more careful with them.

Will you be able to recommend any other copy trader/brokerage that is safer and better regulated.

Or do you think that brokerages that provides copy trading are generally dubious ?

The SCAM boss willing to sponsor but not willing to spend to get a license, why? Licensing required audit and check which they will definitely failed
I heard from an introducer that they couldnt get certain license was because they have/allow high leverage ratio and also have CopyTrade feature.

Being a noob in this, im not sure if that is true?
