This company appears in our regulatory warnings database. Always verify with official regulatory sources before investing or doing business with this firm.
I am in a dispute with Mantistrade over a trade that was clearly erroneous. The price shown was wrong, I closed at a profit, and they reversed the trade and took the money back. They said it was a system error. So I lose and they keep? Unacceptable.
Pros: Reliable uptime|Instant funding
Cons: Limited demo account features
The spread at Mantistrade is not what they advertise. During volatile markets it widens so much that you lose before the trade even starts. I found them when my bank disappointed me and I searched for alternatives and initially thought the platform was good - until I started trading seriously.
Pros: Dedicated account manager|Tax reports included
Cons: Onboarding videos are outdated
KYC with Mantistrade 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: Full transparency|Automated trading options|Professional team|Fast deposits
Cons: No fractional shares
After for just over a year with Mantistrade 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: Smooth onboarding|Full transparency|Professional team
Cons: Search feature is basic|Nothing significant
