I trade with profit and was scammed by Rock West, they automatically withdrew my profits while my money was already withdrawn to my wallet. Their platform can interfere with your money, they won't say anything if you lose, but if you win, they won't let you withdraw your profits. We are currently working on this issue, but you should consider carefully when trading with this platform.

My 170,100 pesos has been lost because they do not want to pay me. Someone help me please. Nadien gives me an answer and everything is a disaster on their platform

Starting trading with just $25 is a huge plus, especially for me. Spreads are also small. I am doing well on this platform. 👍👍👍

This broker doesn't want to issue my profit and deposit I made from their no deposit bonus. They even went as further as blocking my account from making further withdrawals
