As someone who has spent years navigating the forex industry, I place an extremely high value on broker transparency and regulatory oversight. When I looked into Pocket Trade, the first thing that stood out to me was the absence of valid regulatory information. For me, this is a major concern. A broker that isn’t regulated by a recognized authority carries substantial risks because there’s no oversight to protect client funds or ensure fair trading practices. The fact that WikiFX even labels its regulatory license and business scope as “suspicious” reinforces my caution. Additionally, the platform carries a very low score for regulatory reliability and, crucially, a zero rating for risk management. These signals are critical because, without strong risk management frameworks, clients may have little recourse in the event of disputes or irregularities. While the company claims to be based in Malaysia and has been operating for a couple of years, longevity alone does not compensate for the lack of regulatory protection. For me, trading with an unregulated broker exposes my capital to unacceptable and unquantifiable risks. In a market filled with highly-rated, fully regulated alternatives, I would personally avoid depositing funds with a broker like Pocket Trade, where the basic safeguards and transparency that underpin trust are simply not evident.
