This company appears in our regulatory warnings database. Always verify with official regulatory sources before investing or doing business with this firm.

Pros: Information is publicly available for verification
Cons: Appears in regulatory warnings database|Uncertain regulatory status
Several red flags with Hall Capital Markets: (1) They promise unrealistically high returns, (2) They're not registered with Alberta Securities Commission, (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.
Pros: Website looks legitimate on the surface
Cons: Unauthorized firm|Found in IOSCO warnings database
I invested $3,500 with Hall Capital Markets after seeing their professional-looking website. At first, everything seemed fine - they showed me impressive returns on my dashboard. But when I tried to withdraw, they kept making excuses. First it was "processing time," then "verification needed," then "you need to pay a tax fee first." I never got my money back. I have since reported them to Alberta Securities Commission.
Cons: Withdrawal fees demanded|Communication cut off|Not authorized
I trusted Hall Capital Markets 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: Demo account available|Professional team|Educational resources|Detailed reporting
Cons: No phone support on weekends|Research section could be deeper
Tried to withdraw my funds from Hall Capital Markets and was told I needed to pay a "withdrawal tax" of 20%. This is a red flag. No legitimate broker charges withdrawal taxes. When I refused, they became aggressive and eventually stopped all communication. My entire investment is gone.
Pros: Initially responsive customer service
Cons: Lost entire investment|Reported to authorities|Unresponsive
