hkex.lol/ has been flagged by Financial Markets Authority for "Unregistered/Unlicensed entity offering financial products or services|Fraud ...". This company appears in our regulatory warnings database. Always verify with official regulatory sources before investing or doing business with this firm.
After doing some research AFTER the fact (I know, I should have done this first), I discovered that hkex.lol/ 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.
Pros: Initially responsive customer service
Cons: Lost entire investment|Reported to authorities|Unresponsive
I had high hopes for hkex.lol/ through a financial advisor, 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: Real-time alerts|Great customer service|Easy withdrawals|Competitive fees
Cons: Wish they had more educational resources
I gave hkex.lol/ a fair chance. After for the past year and a half 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 platform improvements|Good mobile app
Cons: Inactivity fee applies after 12 months|No fractional shares
hkex.lol/ 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: Competitive fees|Fast execution
Cons: Account statements could be more detailed
I looked into hkex.lol/ and found they appear in the regulatory warnings database. Financial Markets Authority has issued a notice about this firm. Whether this is a misunderstanding or a serious concern, the fact remains that proper due diligence is essential. Always verify the regulatory status of any company before investing your hard-earned money.
Cons: Flagged by international regulators|Due diligence required
hkex.lol/ changed their fee structure with one month notice. What was a flat fee became a percentage. For my account size it meant a huge increase. When I objected they said I could leave. So I am leaving and writing this review.
Pros: Economic calendar|Fast deposits|Copy trading available
Cons: Spreads widen during volatile periods
hkex.lol/ 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: Demo account available|Excellent charting|Economic calendar
Cons: No fractional shares|Limited ETF selection
After using hkex.lol/ for just over a year, 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: Personal attention|Multi-device support
Cons: Limited ETF selection|No integrated tax optimization
Tried to withdraw my funds from hkex.lol/ 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.
Cons: Blocked my account|No legitimate license|Fake returns
Do not use hkex.lol/ for anything serious. I used them since mid-2025 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: Comprehensive tools|Dividend tracking|Stable platform|Good analytical tools
Cons: Nothing significant
