Forex Chief is a broker that has been operating in the market since 2014, is headquartered in the offshore jurisdiction Vanuatu, and with additional offices in Switzerland, Singapore, and Nigeria (Abuja and Ibadan).
An important thing to take note of regarding Forex Chief, however, is that it does not have any properly regulated entities anywhere in the world that could attest to the credibility of this broker. Although the broker is subject to some oversight from the Vanuatu Financial Services Commission (VFSC), this is a very loose form of regulatory oversight compared to what is typical in regions like the EU, Australia and North America.
Thankfully though, loose oversight also comes with certain benefits for the user, such as the ability to set up and fund a trading account with cryptocurrencies more or less anonymously, as well as ultra-high leverage of up to 1:1,000 on certain trading instruments.
Forex Chief also has a pretty strong line-up as far as trading instruments goes, with more than 40 popular forex pairs, as well as CFDs on everything from gold & silver to energy commodities, stock indices, and a selection of cryptocurrencies. One thing we do miss, however, is a selection of single stocks to trade as CFDs, which is not possible with Forex Chief.
All the assets offered by the broker are traded on either the MetaTrader 4 (MT4) or MetaTrader 5 (MT5) trading platforms. As usual, these platforms are available as either the standard downloadable version for Windows, as a web-based version for use on any computer, or as mobile apps for tablets and smartphones.
The account types offered by the broker includes four different trading accounts for either the MT4 or MT5, in addition to a special Islamic account:
– MT4/5.DirectFX, with spreads from 0 pips and commissions of USD 15/roundtrip.
– MT4/5.Classic+, with spreads from 0.3 pips and no commissions.
– cent-MT4/5.DirectFX, with spreads from 0 pips and commissions of USD 15/roundtrip.
– cent-MT4/5.Classic+, with spreads from 0.3 pips and no commissions.
All trading accounts have a minimum deposit requirement of USD 10, and allow for leverage of up to 1:1,000 on the most liquid assets.
Further, trading accounts with Forex Chief can conveniently be funded with either an international bank wire transfer or by making a credit/debit card payment with all major cards. In addition, a range of e-wallet services like Skrill and Neteller, and cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin are also accepted.
Finally, customer support is offered by Forex Chief via live chat on platforms such as Skype, Telegram, WhatsApp and others, as well as on dedicated phone numbers for each of the broker’s regional representative offices. All offices offer support only within their own working hours, and 24-hour support is therefore unfortunately not available.
In conclusion, it is obvious that Forex Chief is a broker that has managed to capture a part of the important African and Nigerian market since it first entered the business in 2014. We also like how the broker’s customer support team is available on several platforms, although we would have liked to see 24-hour support offered. All in all, however, Forex Chief is a broker with a good line-up of trading instruments combined with competitive spreads, and may therefore be a decent choice for traders.
I have been trading here for more than half a year now. So far so good. The trading conditions are quite competitive. Execution is ok. Like everywhere else on strong movements may slip a bit, but it does not slip only on kitchens. Deposit/withdrawal works. We'll see how it goes from here.
I have been trading with the company for more than a year. For me two things are important in any brokerage company:
1. Trading conditions
2. Ease and speed of withdrawal
I am satisfied with both trading and withdrawal conditions in this company.
A very reliable broker. So I've been trading here for several years. I am satisfied with the trading conditions and the fast withdrawal of money.
I have been familiar with this broker almost since its appearance. The site is designed for the convenience of the user, registration is simple, there are no questions with verification, support's quick with response to requests.
I have used about 4 brokers in the past from Japan, but none of them actually favored my scalping EA the way Forexchief does. The low spread is the tip of the ice, the commission is good too. I have made several withdrawals, and I am satisfied.
Normal broker. Normal spreads that do not interfere with making a profit even on scalping. There are no unreasonable slippage of orders (only on strong movements, but I don't trade on news). Stable operation of the terminal. I observed only a few short-term (1-10 sec) breaks. Everything about payments works flawlessly here.
MT4 is an excellent platform for forex trading and big earnings. Very high-quality support. This broker is really good. Never abandon customers!
Worst broker scammers, don't give profits, close account immediately, stay away.
After three months trading with Forexchief, I dont have any major issue to note. I think that this is one honest broker, with solid conditions for forex traders. I am using MT5 platform and a good EA which I have created. It works without any issues for last several months. I feel also happy that spreads are tight even during high volatility, they don’t go higher than usual, mostly they are lower. Another positive stuff for me here is that hedging is supported, so I don’t have issues to place SL within 5 pips from spot position.
There is no better broker I have used in the past 6 years. I am new with Forexchief, but what I have experienced so far is amazing. Fast orders and no slippage. I’ve found them to be really reliable over the past year or so. Withdrawals are quick and any problems I've had have been solved by the support team. Can't complain really.
I am with ForexChief 1,5 years now. Started with No deposit bonus but could not work out conditions to withdraw it. But trading is really OK. I deposit 100 USD and already withdraw more than 200. Spreads sometimes go wider on news but all brokers have it. But in general everything is good. Withdrawals are OK.
I don’t see why it is being encouraged to use a US or UK broker with full regulation, when they offer crap trading conditions. One cannot even get a decent leverage or spread. I found Forexchief to be more of a better broker. I can choose from 1:1 to 1:1000 leverage and the spreads are less than 1. It has been more than a year and I have never had any problems with withdrawals. This broker deserves an award for best services.
I trade Forex on a daily basis. I focus on only the major pairs most times. I decided to use Forexchief because they have better trading conditions on ECN account and variable spreads, very low. Now the best part is the fee per traded Lot. My previous broker charge up to $5, but Forexchief charge less than $1. When the market is very volatile, the spreads reduce greatly. I don’t pay any additional charges on trade. Lastly, I haven’t experienced any issues when withdrawing money.
In general, a good broker, both in terms of execution and deposit/withdrawal of funds. Separately, it is worth noting the very polite and qualified support. On call 24 hours on weekdays. In my opinion, ForexChief is a good choice for a trader. Especially for beginners (the bonus system is very good).
I am very impressed with Forexchief, especially how they have handled the volume of my trades. I find the platform to be extremely stable. There is regular maintenance of server to keep the speed of execution same as always. Trading conditions are still okay, but the server is one of the most advantages of using this broker.
Frankly speaking, Forexchief is more suitable to news traders and scalpers. If you care about low spreads and slippage free execution, this is the right broker for you. It is one of the few brokers that allow such without restrictions in any way. Withdrawing profit is not a problem. Highly recommended.
I have only one word "Liquidity". This feature is always underestimated. This feature is very important and has a direct impact on your trading process. ForexChief has developed its own stream aggregation architecture that allows the company to have a significant reduction of spread sizes, slippage sizes, and percentage of refused orders.
I recently registered with Forexchief to get high leverage. It's amazing how such a stable broker could offer leverage as high as 1:1000 on ECN account. My leverage for commodity and stock trading is even up to 1:100. This is a rare service to find. I have no issues whatsoever with moving my money in or out. Nice one.
I have seen three advantages of using Forexchief that will make me stick with this broker for a very long time. First is the ease of doing business. I find it easy to open trades and get fills at good prices and quickly. Second, I am able to use high leverage up to 1:1000 at any time, plus lower spreads. Thirdly, the ability to withdraw money or fund my account as fast as needed. I feel my money is in good hands. I will be referring my friends to this broker.
Forexchief is just like most brokers that offers high leverage. The difference is that they don't joke with their traders. From withdrawing money to using profitable strategies, this broker makes sure that I get the best deal. No useless slippage and no freezing at crucial hours. The longest I had to wait for withdrawal of profit was 3 days by wire transfer.
If a broker allows you to make money without issues, then it's a good broker. Forexchief demo account was smooth, I made 200% profit in two months. I replicated it on a live account and made 120%, which is not bad because there must be a difference. I did that with another broker and got -90%, equal to losses. This shows forexchief is good to use, they don't trade against me.
My first criteria for any broker is low spread and fast execution. This also includes fast closing of trades. I am a serious scalper and this is very important to me. I need to be able to enter and exit as quickly as possible. Thankfully I am doing this with Forexchief mt4 and all is working smoothly. I love it.
Good broker. Registered in 2018 and still with them. Love it.
