Hedge Markets 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.
My card was charged twice by Hedge Markets on the same day. I had to dispute it with my bank. Hedge Markets 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: Real-time alerts|Two-factor authentication|Transparent fees
Cons: Account statements could be more detailed|Nothing significant
After using Hedge Markets for nearly two years, 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: Helpful community forum|Copy trading available|Excellent charting|Good analytical tools
Cons: Search feature is basic
After seeing ads for Hedge Markets 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: Flagged by Financial Conduct Authority|Cannot verify credentials
I was contacted by Hedge Markets through social media. They promised guaranteed returns of 20-30% monthly. Being naive, I invested. The "account manager" pressured me to invest more and more. When I finally tried to take profit, my account was frozen and they stopped responding. Classic Ponzi/advance fee fraud.
Cons: Withdrawal fees demanded|Communication cut off|Not authorized
Their two-factor authentication was optional when I joined. I enabled it. Later I lost my phone and could not log in. Hedge Markets recovery process took 3 weeks and required notarized documents. By then I had missed important trades. Their security is your inconvenience.
Pros: Fast execution|Fast support response
Cons: Email notifications too frequent
I had high hopes for Hedge Markets after a friend recommended them, 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: Fast support response|Market news feed|Portfolio tracking tools
Cons: Onboarding videos are outdated|No crypto staking
KYC with Hedge Markets 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: Regular platform improvements|Clean UI|Reliable uptime|Comprehensive tools
Cons: Desktop app not available on Linux
