After doing some research AFTER the fact (I know, I should have done this first), I discovered that AFP is not authorized by any legitimate financial regulator. They are operating illegally. The website looks very professional but it's all a facade. Please check the regulatory warnings database before investing with ANY company.
Cons: Blocked my account|No legitimate license|Fake returns
The so-called education at AFP is just marketing. Every webinar ends with a push to deposit more. The market analysis is generic and often wrong. If you want real education go elsewhere. I wasted for a couple of months now thinking they would help me learn.
Pros: Professional team|Economic calendar|Multi-currency support|Smooth onboarding
Cons: None so far|Nothing significant
AFP has no proper customer support. The live chat is a bot. The phone number goes to a call center that cannot access your account. Email takes two weeks. When I had a real problem they were nowhere to be found.
Pros: Dedicated account manager|Excellent charting
Cons: Email notifications too frequent|Charting tools need more indicators
