Withdrawal failures and losses from copy-trading are still the most common issues among complaint cases in July. Notably the list was composed of low rated brokers without valid licenses and licensed brokers. WikiFX reminds investors to also pay attention to a broker's WOM(word of mouth) in addition to its compliance.
The following are the main complaint issues this month:
1. Withdrawal delayed or rejected
2. Loss caused by broker's misleading trading signals
3. Investor's data cleared or broker escaping
4. Slippage caused by broker's malicious action

FFS Group received heavy complaints with a WikiFX rating 2.09.
