I was new to binary trading when I joined this crowd, broker was very friendly initially and extremely helpful. Started with $250 and that did well so I took the step of going for a $5000 package. The broker then placed 2 x $2500 trades on my behalf and lost both, account wiped out in 1 day. 'Oh no worries' he says,' they were risk free so here's your money back'. Except that is now viewed as a bonus so subject to the 30x turnover rule, its extremely unlikely that I will ever see this money again. The platform itself is also rather shabby and you will need an alternative chart provider if you want to take trading seriously.
