CTC Holdings Co 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: Instant funding|Clean UI|Segregated accounts|Economic calendar
Cons: Charting tools need more indicators|No phone support on weekends
I found CTC Holdings Co from a review site like this one and the initial impression was positive. But for roughly four months later, I have encountered so many issues that I cannot recommend them. Trades failing, charts not loading, and support tickets going unanswered for days at a time.
Pros: Clear documentation|Risk management tools|Automated trading options
Cons: Limited ETF selection|Wish they had more educational resources
Do not use CTC Holdings Co for anything serious. I used them for about five months for small trades and it was okay. When I deposited a larger amount and traded more, my account was flagged, my withdrawals were delayed, and I was asked to explain my trading. They treat active traders like criminals.
Pros: Clean UI|Automated trading options|Instant funding|Regular updates
Cons: Research section could be deeper
CTC Holdings Co offers copy trading. I copied a top trader. The copy trades often executed at worse prices than the original. When I asked why they said it was due to latency and liquidity. So the feature is broken or they are skimming. Either way I stopped using it.
Pros: Full transparency|Professional team|Economic calendar|Detailed reporting
Cons: Account statements could be more detailed
CTC Holdings Co locked my account without warning and demanded documents I had already submitted. for the past six months later I still do not have access to my funds. Their compliance team does not respond to emails. I am considering legal action.
Pros: Intuitive for beginners|Quick verification|Real-time alerts
Cons: Email notifications too frequent
KYC with CTC Holdings Co 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: Risk management tools|Transparent fees|Great customer service
Cons: Mobile app could be improved|Limited social trading features
The hidden fees at CTC Holdings Co are the real scandal here. What they advertise and what they actually charge are two different things. By the time I realized how much I was paying in various fees and spreads, I had already lost a meaningful amount.
Pros: Demo account available|Risk management tools|Real-time alerts|Multi-currency support
Cons: Charting tools need more indicators|None so far
I had high hopes for CTC Holdings Co while looking for alternatives to my previous provider, but my experience has been disappointing. Customer support is slow, the platform has frequent issues, and their fee structure is not as transparent as advertised. I am actively looking for alternatives now.
Pros: Smooth onboarding|Segregated accounts
Cons: Spreads widen during volatile periods|No fractional shares
After since I retired last year with CTC Holdings Co I requested to close my account and withdraw. They said I had to complete a 30-day cooling-off period. Then they said there was a minimum holding period for my last deposit. They make it as hard as possible to leave.
Pros: Instant funding|Tax reports included|Clean UI|Social trading features
Cons: Currency conversion fee exists|Email notifications too frequent
I closed a profitable position at CTC Holdings Co and the profit was not credited for 5 days. Support said it was a settlement delay. When it finally arrived it was less than the amount shown on the platform. They could not explain the difference. I have moved my account.
Pros: Economic calendar|Competitive fees|Instant funding|Regular platform improvements
Cons: No dark mode on mobile
