Atlas Trade Option has been flagged by Financial Conduct Authority for "Unregistered/Unlicensed entity offering financial products or services". This company appears in our regulatory warnings database. Always verify with official regulatory sources before investing or doing business with this firm.
KYC with Atlas Trade Option is a nightmare. I submitted my ID and proof of address. They rejected it and asked for a utility bill. I sent it. They asked for a bank statement. Then they asked for a selfie with the ID. Then they said the selfie did not match. I gave up.
Pros: Instant funding|Portfolio tracking tools|Two-factor authentication|Customizable dashboard
Cons: No live chat on mobile|Wish they had more educational resources
I lost a significant amount because Atlas Trade Option did not execute my stop loss during a flash crash. They said the market was illiquid. Other brokers managed to execute. I have no proof they did not trade against me. Avoid.
Pros: Professional team|Competitive fees|Automated trading options|Clean UI
Cons: Cannot customize dashboard fully
Their two-factor authentication was optional when I joined. I enabled it. Later I lost my phone and could not log in. Atlas Trade Option recovery process took 3 weeks and required notarized documents. By then I had missed important trades. Their security is your inconvenience.
Pros: Regular updates|Clear documentation
Cons: Desktop app not available on Linux
Atlas Trade Option seems more interested in acquiring new customers than taking care of existing ones. The marketing is aggressive but the product is mediocre. Once you are past the honeymoon period, the cracks in their service become very apparent.
Pros: Multiple order types|Copy trading available|Personal attention
Cons: Limited social trading features
I am in a dispute with Atlas Trade Option over a trade that was clearly erroneous. The price shown was wrong, I closed at a profit, and they reversed the trade and took the money back. They said it was a system error. So I lose and they keep? Unacceptable.
Pros: Clear documentation|Automated trading options
Cons: Currency conversion fee exists|No fractional shares
I trusted Atlas Trade Option with a significant portion of my savings and I deeply regret that decision. Not because of market losses, but because of how poorly the platform performed and how dismissively the support team treated my concerns.
Pros: Low minimum deposit|Multiple order types|Portfolio tracking tools|Excellent charting
Cons: Cannot customize dashboard fully
This company appears on the IOSCO I-SCAN international warnings list. Over 68 financial regulators worldwide contribute to this database. While being listed doesn't automatically mean fraud, it's a significant red flag that potential investors should take seriously. Do your research thoroughly.
Cons: Listed in IOSCO I-SCAN|May not be authorized in your jurisdiction
After doing some research AFTER the fact (I know, I should have done this first), I discovered that Atlas Trade Option 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.
Pros: Initially responsive customer service
Cons: Withdrawal fees demanded|Communication cut off|Not authorized
Several red flags with Atlas Trade Option: (1) They promise unrealistically high returns, (2) They're not registered with Financial Conduct Authority, (3) Their contact information is vague, (4) They pressure you to deposit quickly. I recommend everyone do thorough due diligence before investing with any company.
Cons: Flagged by Financial Conduct Authority|Cannot verify credentials
After using Atlas Trade Option for about ten months, I decided to move my account elsewhere. The platform was unreliable, withdrawals took an unreasonable amount of time, and I could never get a straight answer from customer service. Frustrating experience overall.
Pros: Excellent charting|Tax reports included
Cons: Would like more payment methods
