GoMarkets Discussion

Go markets did not return any missing money from my account but they accepted deposits

Bye Go markets Pepperstone now

Its kind of amazing that so many people deposited money with gomarkets in the first place. When I was researching various brokers in Australia I saw Gomarket was dodgey from the get go. Most of their marketing consisted of paying for fake reviews on "broker review" sites and affiliates (aka shrills) posting under multiple names on forums like this one. When I saw them doing this sort of stuff for publicity (and even bad mouthing other brokers like Pepperstone lol), I figured they weren't an ethical company. Guess now there's so many pissed off people posting that its actually overwhelming the shrills.

If you've had your money taken, do all you can for legal recourse. These dishonest brokers bank on only a very small % of the people they rip off actually going after them, its a tactical decision weighting risk vs reward. And until you guys decide to do this, their court costs for such behavior will be 0 and they'll keep making excuses til the cows come home.

I had a similar experience with Crown a few years back. Trust me when I say these brokers will be singing a different tune when legal action is on the table.

I hope their victims keep us up to date about the progress of the taken legal action

What's going on? This thread has been quiet for a long time. Has everyone stopped trading with GO?

Just got this from Fx copy (the reason I am using Go). Now we can't use copy trading and we used to be able to. Is anyone on this thread trading with vantage fx ? Fx copy is good I want to keep using it

Why do they say registered partners and list Enfinium and Vantage? Fx copy is Enfinium and vantage is Enfinium. Fair enough, push your own product, but don't make out like we are stupid.

Personally, I wouldn't ever touch Vantage. Too many horror stories.

If one who was "scammed" by them, one would not put in any money with them again no matter how highly attractive promotions were offered.

Be warned do not use this broker. They will bleed your account dry with sudden spread spikes of more than 30 pips. This will only ever take out your SL they will never take out your Profit target even when profit target is 10 pips away and SL is 50 pips away. Stay away. Gomarkets MT4 platform will freeze during high news events making it impossible to trade these highly profitable events. They will freeze the platforms for along as a press conference goes on for and until the move is complete. Stay away and save your money..

I had ever experienced disconnection of their MT4 platform when news were reporting.

Hi, GoMarkets

Can you explain this please? I am an experienced trader, and I have more than one broker so that I can compare my feeds.

This spike caused unexpected loss. I would not say this spike looks fishy or clumsy. But I didn't see this spike elsewhere (from other brokers' feed)

Edited: follow-up: trade recovered, thanks, GoMarkets!

Suck it up Princess, that's what stops are for

Surely you see that PA on other pairs by now?

PS: Axitrader by the way

That's great news, hope it works out better 2nd time found this later in the day

GBP/CHF

Almost at the first hour of the market open on last Sunday afternoon, CHF cross currency pairs including GBP/CHF moved for over 300 pips within a very short time. I thought it was related to a big transaction, but I found out later that it was just a data feed error and that price movement was not real.

As I see, many brokers have fixed the spikes on the price charts, but many of them haven’t done it yet. Also, if you have lost money because of this false price movement, you have to ask your broker to reimburse. They have to do it.

credit where credit is due:

GO Markets removed EURCHF from their list of pairs to trade after cap.

That was prudent & smart as seen from trouble other brokers have.

Big + for GO

The spread on EURUSD is again too high on Go Markets (2 pips)

IMHO, avoid this broker..

Recently MT4 platform updated into new version 4.00 build 920, it seem that this new version is unstable, as I attached external indicators/EA/scripts and etc onto the chart, MT4 platform will auto close and will never be successfully launch again. Unless I delete all the external indicators/EA/scripts or any external file that attached to the chart previously via folder path as below,

"C:\Users\<Window user name>\AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Terminal\DF5DE9547A0936C0E42C040D9AA40C5F\MQL4\"

After delete all those affected files, then I reopen again the MT4 platform, now it is able to work. However, if I again attach any external indicator/EA/etc onto the chart, same issue will happen again.

My Window is Windows 7 Ultimate with 64x

Anyone encounters same issue as me? Any solution?
Thanks.

same for me

I took away my money and opened another account
I have experienced many troubles,
like stoploss not executed

Here's an article on Go Markets and VantageFX if you guys are still on the fence about jumping in or out:

In short, take all your money and get the hell out of there.

Same date, different time frames.

Anyone else have this 900+ pip disparity on Go Markets?

sometimes the inbetween tickdata goes missing on lookbacks. (check the time/date of the bar before the gap and after - there should be some missing data/dates) happens on all brokers, but doesnt mean it has been manipulated. only way to know if it was manipulated is to trade the pair and compare it there and then with other brokers for the price entry. checkout (www . tradeproofer . com)

for reference gmt+2 broker so your 13th is my 14th as 13th was a sunday.

The question is why are you still trading with them? Did you not see the post above yours?
