Capital Margin Trade 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.
After seeing ads for Capital Margin Trade online, I investigated. The company is listed in the IOSCO I-SCAN warnings database and has been flagged by Financial Conduct Authority. Their website looks professional but that means nothing - many scam operations invest heavily in appearance. Always check the regulatory warnings before investing.
Cons: Listed in warning databases|No transparency|Pressure to invest quickly
Capital Margin Trade has the worst mobile app I have ever used for investing. It crashes constantly, features that work on desktop are missing entirely, and the security implementation is questionable at best. How they released this app is beyond me.
Pros: Multi-currency support|Educational resources
Cons: None so far
I signed up with Capital Margin Trade after doing extensive research and the first red flag was the aggressive account manager who would not stop calling. After depositing, the promised support vanished. Withdrawals are delayed with endless excuses. I have reported them to the regulator.
Pros: Good analytical tools|Great customer service|No hidden fees
Cons: Help articles are sometimes vague|Email notifications too frequent
After doing some research AFTER the fact (I know, I should have done this first), I discovered that Capital Margin Trade 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
I gave Capital Margin Trade a fair chance. After since mid-2025 of usage, I can say with confidence that there are far better options available. The interface is clunky, the fees are higher than competitors, and the customer support team seems overwhelmed or understaffed.
Pros: Regular updates|Regular platform improvements
Cons: Withdrawal takes 1-2 business days|Email notifications too frequent
My card was charged twice by Capital Margin Trade on the same day. I had to dispute it with my bank. Capital Margin Trade then froze my account and said I had a negative balance because of the chargeback. They created the problem and then punished me for it.
Pros: Detailed reporting|Dividend tracking|Tax reports included|Helpful community forum
Cons: Charting tools need more indicators|Help articles are sometimes vague
After spending for a few weeks now trying to make Capital Margin Trade work for me, I have given up. The platform has too many limitations, the fees are not competitive, and the quality of their market data is questionable. There are much better options available.
Pros: Dedicated account manager|Social trading features|Great customer service|Good mobile app
Cons: No integrated tax optimization
I opened an account with Capital Margin Trade since I retired last year ago. The platform frequently logs you out, orders fail to execute at the stated price, and when you complain they blame your internet connection. I have screenshots proving otherwise.
Pros: Competitive fees|Portfolio tracking tools|Copy trading available|Social trading features
Cons: No phone support on weekends
The mobile app from Capital Margin Trade is dangerous. I placed an order that showed as pending, so I placed another. Both executed and I was overexposed. When I complained they said it was user error. The app design is misleading.
Pros: Responsive team|Educational resources
Cons: Withdrawal takes 1-2 business days|None so far
For anyone considering Capital Margin Trade, please be aware that this company has been flagged by Financial Conduct Authority. This does not necessarily mean they are a scam, but it does mean they may not be authorized to operate in certain jurisdictions. I strongly recommend checking the official regulator website before making any investment decisions.
Cons: Appears in regulatory warnings database|Uncertain regulatory status
