Tradear.com has been flagged by Comisión para el Mercado Financiero (Financial Market 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.
Where do I even begin with Tradear.com? for about three months of broken promises, unanswered tickets, and a platform that feels like it was built in 2010. They spend more on marketing than on actually improving their service. Stay away from this company.
Pros: Fast deposits|Clear documentation|Market news feed|Multiple order types
Cons: Live chat only during business hours
I referred a friend to Tradear.com through word of mouth in my investment club. We both deposited. The referral bonus never arrived. Support said we did not meet the terms. When we asked which terms they pointed to a clause that was added after we signed up. Shady.
Pros: Market news feed|Regular platform improvements|Customizable dashboard|Wide product range
Cons: No crypto staking|Search feature is basic
Tradear.com 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: Reliable uptime|Personal attention|Competitive fees
Cons: None so far|Limited cryptocurrency options
Tradear.com advertises low fees but once you dig into the fine print, there are numerous charges that add up quickly. Inactivity fees, withdrawal fees, currency conversion fees - it all eats into your returns. I wish I had read the terms more carefully.
Pros: Risk management tools|Good mobile app|Competitive fees|Copy trading available
Cons: Could offer more webinars
I wanted to transfer my portfolio from another broker to Tradear.com. They said they do not accept in-kind transfers for my asset type. I had to sell, withdraw, deposit, and rebuy - incurring taxes and spread costs. They did not tell me this before I signed up.
Pros: Regular updates|Copy trading available
Cons: Help articles are sometimes vague|Minimum deposit could be lower
I gave Tradear.com a fair chance. After for about eight months 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: Good mobile app|Quick verification
Cons: Desktop app not available on Linux|Help articles are sometimes vague
After using Tradear.com since I opened my account last 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: Comprehensive tools|Wide product range|Multi-device support
Cons: Wish they had more educational resources|Withdrawal takes 1-2 business days
I was contacted by Tradear.com 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: Lost entire investment|Reported to authorities|Unresponsive
The only good thing about Tradear.com is that they remind you why regulation matters. I found them through a forum discussion. They are regulated in a jurisdiction with weak consumer protection. When things went wrong I had nowhere to turn. Stick to well-regulated brokers.
Pros: Dividend tracking|Clean UI|Wide product range|Regular updates
Cons: Cannot customize dashboard fully
I am in a dispute with Tradear.com 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: API access|Intuitive for beginners
Cons: Could offer more webinars
