Recently, I had a very bad experience while trading on Tickmill, and I want to share it so that other traders can consider carefully before depositing money here. During trading, I tried to deposit more money to hold the order but couldn't proceed. This issue not only caused inconvenience but also led to a serious consequence: my account suffered heavy losses overnight, as I was unable to supplement capital in time. The inability to deposit money at the right moment made me question the transparency and credibility of Tickmill. Although it might be a technical problem, I couldn’t rule out the possibility that the platform intentionally creates difficulties for traders, causing financial damage. I share this story to warn fellow traders to be careful and consider thoroughly before trading on Tickmill, so they don't end up losing money unfairly like I did.

I've tried various brokers in Latam and Tickmill has been the worst. When I opened a position, the execution was several pips up and my operation started with negative $20 in a RAW account, which is unacceptable. I made a claim with evidence, and they responded 4 days later, telling me it was a demo account and to "learn how to use the platform", with a rude tone and zero professionalism. In that time, I had to close in negative to avoid burning the account. They don't have online support and they don't solve anything. I've seen other Latam traders report the same: sliding prices, misleading spreads, and a total lack of transparency. Terrible experience: I don't recommend Tickmill.

Please verify the website to determine if it is genuine or fake. Because if it is a real website regulated by the FCA, there will certainly be no issues with trading. I guarantee it, as I have been using it and have withdrawn funds multiple times.

As a regular Malaysian trader, I chose Tickmill for its advertised advantages of "FCA regulation and low spreads." However, my actual experience has been mixed. The platform does hold a Labuan FSA license, and funds are segregated in a Malayan bank account, which initially reassured me. However, during my trading from March to May 2025, a series of hidden issues gradually emerged. While these didn't result in significant losses, they severely impacted my trading experience. The official website boasts "spreads on major currency pairs as low as 0.1 pips," but in actual trading, the EUR/USD spread remained stable at 1.2-1.5 pips during off-peak hours. This selective execution repeatedly caused my strategy to fail.

I export coffee beans, and to mitigate exchange rate risk, I opened an account on your platform to trade USD/IDR. However, the data provided by your Indonesian team is severely delayed! While it performs normally when the international market is stable, your quotes lag by 3-5 minutes when important data is released, causing all my hedging orders to be executed at the worst possible prices! Even worse, you deliberately widen the spreads in the backend, increasing the normal 5-point spread to 25 points during critical periods! I contacted customer service, but your Indonesian manager brazenly claimed, "This is normal market behavior!" We export agricultural products, and our profits are already slim. This deception has resulted in a direct loss of 350 million rupiah! Now that harvest season has arrived, I don't even have the funds to pay farmers their advances. My entire supply chain is on the verge of collapse!

The crappy Indonesian-operated system, coupled with a hilariously fake "data foundation," is practically driving users into a fire pit! Yesterday, I traded based on the EUR/USD data your system pushed, and the real-time price was clearly stable. Just as I entered a large position, the market suddenly plummeted! When I tried to close my position and stop my loss, the crappy Indonesian system froze. When it finally recovered, my account was liquidated, with over $50,000 wiped out in an instant! I complained to Indonesian customer service, but they played dumb in their broken English, saying, "Data delays are normal!" You're using delayed data to trick users into placing orders, then system lags prevent stop-loss orders, and then you're blaming them when things go wrong. This Indonesian team isn't providing service; they're simply stealing money!

As a Vietnamese broker, I had very high expectations for Tickmill, but my experience was utterly disappointing. The following section will detail the platform's issues based on actual data and personal experience. When trading gold against the US dollar (XAU/USD), the platform advertises spreads starting from 0.0 pips, but in reality, these spreads often spike abruptly. For example, during normal market liquidity periods (such as 10:00 AM Hong Kong time), the spread suddenly jumps from 0.6 pips to 3.2 pips without warning. We recorded five such abnormal fluctuations within a week, leading to an additional cost of approximately 15%. Avoid trading on this platform.

टिकमिल के दुर्भावनापूर्ण स्प्रेड की वजह से मुझे 480,000 रुपये का नुकसान हुआ। जब भारतीय रिज़र्व बैंक ने अपनी ब्याज दर संबंधी घोषणा की, तो मैंने USD/INR पर 83.50 का स्टॉप-लॉस लगाया। बाज़ार अचानक पाँच सेकंड के लिए रुक गया, और जब वह संभला, तो उसने 83.80 पर एक ट्रेड दिखाया—30 अंकों की असामान्य गिरावट। इससे मुझे 60,000 रुपये का नुकसान हुआ, जो 2,000 मीटर सूती धागे की कीमत के बराबर है। मेरे 15 में से 11 ट्रेड 25 अंकों से ज़्यादा गिर गए, जिससे कुल 525,000 रुपये का नुकसान हुआ। हालाँकि, मैं ICICI बैंक के प्लेटफ़ॉर्म पर भी ट्रेडिंग कर रहा था, और स्प्रेड लगातार 5 अंकों के दायरे में रहा। सेबी की जाँच से पता चला कि टिकमिल भारत में पंजीकृत भी नहीं है; इसका तथाकथित "नियमन" केवल सेशेल्स FSA द्वारा किया जाता है—बिल्कुल दिल्ली की सड़कों पर नकली डिप्लोमा बेचने वालों की तरह। इस ब्रोकर पर मेरी तरह भरोसा मत करना।

Tickmill's spreads can spike when Bank Indonesia (BI) announces interest rates. On the 15th, I traded USD/IDR. The spread, which is usually 10 pips, suddenly jumped to 55 pips after the central bank data was released. I immediately lost 6.6 million rupiah after placing the order. Withdrawals were even worse. I requested an 80 million rupiah withdrawal in March but only received 68 million rupiah by mid-April. They deducted a 'fund custody fee' of 15%. I asked to see the fee documentation, but they couldn't provide it, citing 'platform regulations.' BAPPEBTI's announcement stated that 'Tickmill operates without a license,' but I initially ignored it.

Tickmill has always had a good reputation in the Indonesian forex community, which attracted me to open an account. Their so-called "low spreads" are conditional, but their real killer feature is slippage! On the night of the non-farm payroll report, I placed a short position in gold with a stop-loss at 2640.5. After the release of the non-farm payroll data, gold prices skyrocketed. Normally, my stop-loss should have been triggered between 2641 and 2642, but the platform's transaction price was directly at 2645, a 4-point slip. My account was completely liquidated, with a loss of nearly $1,500! I took screenshots of the Reuters market data and the platform's transaction records at the time, and the two completely mismatched. I also placed the same position on other platforms (such as IC Markets and Pepperstone), and they executed at almost the same stop-loss price, while Tickmill's slipped by 4 points. If you're looking for a stable trading environment, Tickmill is definitely not the

During my time trading with Tickmill, slippage has become incredibly frequent. Market fluctuations are relatively stable, and trading should normally proceed smoothly. However, when I placed a buy order, the price I set was $1,850 per ounce, but the actual transaction price was $1,855 per ounce, resulting in a $5 slippage. Instead of making a profit, I actually suffered a loss. I initially thought it was just a fluke, but subsequent trades left me completely devastated. In one crude oil trade, I set a stop-loss price of $55 per barrel and a take-profit price of $60 per barrel. But when the market price quickly rose to $59 per barrel, I suddenly experienced abnormal slippage. Over the past month, at least 15 of my 20 trades have experienced varying degrees of slippage, with each trade resulting in an average loss of over $200. In total, I've lost over $3,000 due to slippage.

Slippage and margin calls on the Tickmill Forex platform are a double whammy of despair. I'm incredibly angry about your actions! During my time trading on this platform, I've been plagued by both slippage and margin calls, sinking into despair. Slippage haunts every trade like a ghost. In one GBP/JPY trade, the market was stable, but my order slipped by over 30 pips, resulting in significant losses from the outset. And when the market moved against me, the platform's malicious manipulation made me even more miserable. I reported the issue to the platform, but not only did they refuse to acknowledge their mistakes, they also verbally abused me. Tickmill, your treatment of investors has seriously disrupted the order of the forex market. I hope regulators will intervene swiftly and severely investigate you, so that victims like me can receive the compensation and justice they deserve.

This mobile application runs very smoothly with a simple command interface. I can adjust the lot size just by swiping my finger and close positions anytime even offline. I particularly like the offline notification feature. After setting a stop-loss point, I receive alerts when the price reaches it even without an internet connection. However, there is occasional lag when switching between windows, especially when viewing time-based charts. I hope the next update will improve performance.

The platform's built-in analytical tools are very useful, including a real-time economic calendar and a comprehensive set of technical indicators. I check the daily market summary before the market opens to quickly grasp the day's key data. The multi-timeframe comparison feature is excellent, allowing you to view trends on both 4-hour and 1-hour charts simultaneously. However, some advanced indicators require a paid subscription, making the free version sufficient but not comprehensive, which is quite disappointing for professional traders.

Tickmill offers highly flexible leverage options, ranging from 1:100 to 1:500 for forex and 1:100 for gold. For someone like me who enjoys adjusting positions based on market conditions, this platform is very user-friendly. I initially used 1:100 when I was practicing and gradually increased it to 1:300 as my capital grew. This method proved highly effective for risk management. However, adjusting leverage requires a one-day advance notice and does not take effect immediately. I once needed to change leverage at the last minute but ran out of time. I’d like to see an improvement allowing instant adjustments.

The most user-friendly experience when trading with Tickmill is speed, especially for day trading. Market orders are executed almost instantly with minimal delay. During the latest Non-Farm Payroll data release, I placed three simultaneous orders for Europe and the US, all of which were executed at prices very close to my expectations with no slippage. However, during extreme market conditions, such as the sudden volatility of the Swiss Franc, one sell order was delayed by 0.5 seconds, but fortunately, the impact was minimal. Overall, this execution speed is considered the best among similar platforms, making it very easy to use for traders looking to take advantage of spreads.
