hey guys, long time lurker here. thanks for all the help & information you all have provided for US traders.
I’m considering opening an account with MidasFX but concerned with the longevity of their MetaQuotes license when you can create an account & trade after 30 seconds with just an email?
does anyone here use MidasFX?
you can create an account & trade after 30 seconds with just an email
Some forex brokers and crypto exchanges make it very easy to send them money (or crypto) and trade, but when you want to withdraw, then they hit you with onerous KYC requirements.
Received the following this morning…

EnviFX bought ProsperityFX and simply stole ProsperityFX customers’ money.
Didn’t similar happen with Turnkey?
Be careful. It goes without saying that you can always lose your entire deposit.
But there are levels of risk.
Risk of losing entire deposit when a brand new offshore company takes over is extremely high.
Yes, my post should be obvious to everyone and I have stated it before. Still it should be repeated.
Danger, Will Robinson! Danger!
I’m curious (hoping) if LQDfx is doing it for access to the new platform “coming soon.”
No, Turnkey was acquired by Coinexx and I’ve been with them from Turnkey.
Kinda need to tone down the fear mongering a bit.
I sent them two emails which were responded by the automated reply…then I was sent a different generic email with a copy/paste reply telling me to they tried calling…I didn’t receive any calls…and for me to respond to that email, which I did.
So if I don’t see any emails I’m calling.
Thanks! It was Finpro.
I’m not fear mongering at all. Traders have lost money during some of these mergers.
A heads up is entirely warranted.
post withdrawn
Just got off the phone with my account rep and everything seems good.
For those of you that don’t have funds in your account…more than a few pennies, you need to deposit some and email customer support: AS @ Lqdfx . com
Personally, I would withdraw all my money and wait three to six months to see how the reviews are and what traders are saying.
After speaking with LQDfx, my anxiety has decreased. A little.
It’s all a risk, and my account is small.
We’ll find out this upcoming weekend…
Those of you that move money via BTC broker or whatever should think twice…
WTF happened to the fees. They’re INSANE right now. They’re like thirty percent if I’m not mistaken.
I take that back…they’re over FIFTY! I don’t know what’s going on I’m so confused about
this…out of left field.
Think it’s because I was sending a small amount to keep the lqdfx account active. But still they’re abnormally high from Coinbase those ■■■■■■■.
Yes bitcoin fees are up, In spite of how much I love LQDFX and they are on my personal trusted broker list, I was getting hit hard when I withdrawn from them compared to my other brokers, same can be said on deposits. even though they say they don’t charge fees.
Thinking of today’s call with LQD… the gentleman stated they were voluntarily being acquired and will retain autonomy. Also shared they would be offering a new trading platform as well as adding another liquidity provider enabling tighter spreads/commisions.
One surprising tidbit was his describing LQD as having only an A Book, no B.
will MT4 Still be available
Here is LQDFX Answer to my question.
The following is a record of your online chat.
Info: Thank you for choosing to chat with us. An agent will be with you shortly.
Info: You are now chatting with Harris.
Hello, how may I help you?
james: will MT4 Still be available for U.S. Clients with PlexyTrade
Harris: Kindly contact [email protected].
james: ok
I won’t contact LQDFX since I no longer trade with them, and I’m leaning towards them not offering MT4 platform to U.S. clients.
Remider, this was the same chat a month or so ago where they assured me MT4 will be around in the future, and I am not knocking them for that, but it goes to show that there is no broker that accepts US citizens that is immune from Metaquote raft.
Yes and MT5.
they told you that?
Yes. And a new platform “coming soon.”
