Account Freezed by Stable 1 Provider
29 Jul 2020, 16:09


I am dismay when I copied Trading provider Stable 1 and was unable to withdraw my funds after I stopped copying.  

As I understand from the other threads, Stable 1 has recently charged performance fees of 30% believed to be 23/7/2020.

However system appears to back calculate the performance fees prior to the days  of "Free Copying" by Stable 1.  This has lead to bad computation or unfair back charging of performance fees.

How could cTrader allowed such computation in the first place?  Hopefully cTrader can seriously resolve this matter and bring confidence back to the trading community at large.

This brings me to another question.  If a provider suddenly changes his mind tomorrow and decides to increase his commission to 70% from 30%, does cTrader system allows the provider to backcharge 70% from day 1 e.g 5 months ago ?  I believe this is happening to Stable 1.  Please investigate

Hi Francis,

I am a fellow user of IC market also. I had the same issue and I wrote to them. They informed me that they could only write in to spotware to find out. Chance upon this forum. May I know if ctrader has addressed your issue?

Yours sincerely

Michael

Dear Francis,

Just wanted to share that I am sadden by Ms Christiana Dunga's (IC Markets) reply.  She took the similar approach that IC Markets does not interfere with the cTrader's details of the trading system.  Even though she left it open for further assistance, I could observed that neither Ctrader nor IC Markets would be taking a deeper dive into understanding the issue.  My understanding of things is that Stable 1 may not even be aware of the glitch and may realise that he had a sudden windfall because of this issue.  However even though Stable 1 would like to return the money, CTrader does not have the avenue to do so.  This is where the accountability lies with Ctrader for failing to provide a fair platform and IC Markets for failing to probe into the matters respectively.  

I chance upon ASIC and I understand IC Markets is regulated by them.  Here's an extract :

"ASIC has several systems in place to improve trader confidence including:

  • A compensation scheme that protects client funds in the event of broker insolvency.

  • Several educational programs such as the MoneySmart program, whose aim is to educate traders and help them maximise their returns.

  • Services that help with reclaiming lost money in dormant accounts.

  • Codes of practice that people must familiarise with before investing in the markets.

  • A support system that handles any complaints against member firms or ASIC staff. People can file complaints straight to the ASIC consumer helpline which deals with many issues such as financial malpractice, fraud and tip-offs."

I am thinking of putting up a whistle-blow IC Markets for the financial malpractice as my account has been freezed wrongfully and some of my friends wrongfully deducted.  

Whats your view on this?  Any other bodies we could raise the attention to also?

Yours Sincerely 

Michael
