Visual Trade 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. Website domain: visualtrade.org.
I requested my data from Visual Trade under GDPR. They sent a partial export that was missing months of transactions. When I asked for the rest they said it was a technical issue. Still waiting. They do not take data rights seriously.
Pros: Good analytical tools|Excellent charting|Risk management tools|Demo account available
Cons: Limited ETF selection
After doing some research AFTER the fact (I know, I should have done this first), I discovered that Visual Trade 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: Professional looking website
Cons: Lost entire investment|Reported to authorities|Unresponsive
Do not be fooled by the professional-looking website. Behind the scenes, Visual Trade is disorganized and incompetent. I found them while looking for alternatives to my previous provider and I can only assume the positive reviews are either outdated or paid for because my experience was terrible.
Pros: Professional team|Reliable uptime|Excellent charting
Cons: No integrated tax optimization|Alert system is basic
I trusted Visual Trade 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: Excellent charting|Segregated accounts|Instant funding|Fast deposits
Cons: Email notifications too frequent
I found this company through a friend who recommended it. Before investing, I checked various regulatory databases and found that Visual Trade has been flagged as an unauthorized entity. I informed my friend immediately. Please always verify with official sources - a quick search could save you thousands.
Cons: Listed in warning databases|No transparency|Pressure to invest quickly
