DS Financial (dsfinancial.net) has been flagged by Australian Securities and Investments Commission 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.
DS Financial (dsfinancial.net) 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: Fast execution|Segregated accounts
Cons: Minimum deposit could be lower|Charting tools need more indicators
DS Financial (dsfinancial.net) had an outage that lasted several hours during a major market event. Not only did they fail to prevent it, but they also failed to communicate what was happening. We were left in the dark while our investments were at risk.
Pros: Excellent charting|Copy trading available
Cons: Nothing significant
Do not be fooled by the professional-looking website. Behind the scenes, DS Financial (dsfinancial.net) is disorganized and incompetent. I found them through word of mouth in my investment club and I can only assume the positive reviews are either outdated or paid for because my experience was terrible.
Pros: Segregated accounts|Detailed reporting|Quick verification
Cons: Slow to add new assets|Mobile app could be improved
