Hi all, wish I found this site earlier as I just randomly selected 1 2 trade.com Big Mistake.
Thought I start with $ 500, soon after I got a call from their so called expert trader to help me make some guaranteed quick money.
But to make the most of it I should deposit $5000, so He can help me make some money and then I could withdraw my $5000 and "trade with my profits.
Guaranteed I will not loose any money from my deposit. Spill was very convincing and even got the his boss to tell me about this hot trade he’s got lined up…but wait for it…I have to act now, even prompted me to press deposit button and get my credit card out. Not Lol. Lucky I held back, and said first I want try the platform and see how it all works. Mind you I nearly had to hang up cose they were relentless. However still managed to squeeze another $500 ($1000 all up)
Anyway, had few trades and it felt like gambling no control just make bet buy or sell and wait for the outcome. Was down $60 so I thought give it a rest for a while and do some research and study up on the market.
Got little busy and about three weeks later I opened my trading platform and my balance ( anticipating $940) ONLY $35 left. Checked my acc statement and looked up the transactions sure there were my few $10 trades ( I only made $10 trades) but in my absence some one hacked into my account and gambled my money all at $35 trades DOWN TO $35. Yes, I am very pissed off.
I am contemplating my legal options but my odds are not too good, I learned they only hold a gambling licence in Malta I think.
Judging by accents, they sounded black Africans like Somalia or Kenya.
Literally they STOLE just under a $1000 from me.
So please take note and pass it on, maybe too late for me but I hope it’ll save some people some money.
With enough influance they might have to go through inconvenience of shutting down and restarting under a different name. Hope that’ll cost them more then 1 grand.
Sons of *****es, hope they’ll get their own back one day.
On the brighter side, I learned a lot from this site and opened few demo acc with fxcm, think, and swissqute. Love using MT4 platform and with caution and doing all the checks I am up, all up about $600 pity it’s only play money. But one thing I’ve been trying successfully (so far) is instead using stops instead of stop I hedge or put a trade opposite and wait till it bounces back then just cancel hedging trade and still make little profit. Very time consuming but. Any thought how to automate this ie instead setting stop set or order a hedging trade.
May my loss be your gain
Cheers
Have you got their name right?
12trade.com supply promotional materials for businesses.
Onetwotrade.com seems more likely, binary options broker with loads of scam reviews.
Did you sign up to or tick accept to their Botomatics system? This auto trades your account and may be why you have these extra trades showing on your account.
Hi
Thanks for your interest. I did put binary in brackets but yes you are right it is OneTwoTrade.com.
Waited a while to find out what’s happening and eventually my " acc manager" called and explained how it came about. You were right with your prompts to a auto trading.
I was looking into autorobots and I was under impression I signed up and confirmed my email subscription.
After doing that I looked around and I thought I open an account just to see how it works and if in time maybe give the robots a try under supervision and observe how they work under impression I can disconnect any time.
Anyway, afterwords I clicked on onetwotrade not realising they were in anyway connected nor was there any indication on the platform that I had a robot installed nor was I warned nor told about it by their staff once contacted. All they wanted to do is to get me to deposit $5000. as per above post.
I was keeping my eye on it for about 2 weeks and did few manual trades and did not see any other activity. Got cought up with work and two weeks later almost all gone. Guess I got no come back, but I think I worked out how they work together and get you by stealth. The binary broker doesnt really care if you win or loose they just want traffic and the more trades the more they make. So, it is in their interest to promote robots connected to their site, they work on numbers. And I have no problem with that. what got me I didnt know they were connected and I only signed for emails as I wanted to test robots on my demo accounts first and since the “binary_insiderbot” by Binary Greg - Legal-Insider-Bot was free so as I said if anything try it on my demo acc. So legally they are covered, I did sign to robot site.
The acc manager guy knew exactly what happened he explained step by step, what email to look for and how to unsubscribe, even though I do not recall all steps I cannot argue against.What pisses me off is their blunt deception. As I said at no point of time I was or made aware they were connected and installed automaticly with no awareness it was activated nor a way to switch it on or off.
So, I have been conned. I was little naive. Cope it sweet.
I hope whoever reads this will benefit from my mistakes.
Just the same more importantly I can live with the loss, I was prepared to loose the lot BUT by my own hand. At least could have enjoyed the game.
As advice, keep away from both. This is not how ethical and professional business oprate.
I am thinking of opening account either with Swissquote or Vantage FX. Vantage are registered in Australia.
But will play with their Demo accounts for a while and when I do join I am sure to ask many more questions.
Interesting side of the world.
Cheers
Spend a few weeks at the pipschool here, it really is the best resource you will find anywhere

I hear you loud and clear, just wish I took time to research and find sites like this one before investing any money. Looking on up side I still have $38 left in acc. I’ll let it rest and onceI get more experience I’ll shadow my strong indicators and am determined to build it up hopefully plan to regain on what I lost then take my money out.
But regardless I am optimistic given time and experience and most importantly find a credible broker. No dealing desks. I prefer to pay commission and have min if not none interference with my trades. I am considering Swissqote or Vantge FX raw acc
Any thoughts
