    How does the stock market work?

    Stock markets are a form of centralized exchange where investors buy and sell ownership (stocks) of various companies. Most stock markets worldwide are highly regulated and involve legal, nationally registered, and regulated brokers to facilitate the transfer of stock from a seller to a buyer. 

    Examples of regulated stock exchanges are the US-based NYSE (New York Stock Exchange) and the NASDAQ (National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations). Our ability to access the stock market has never been more effortless, and the barriers to entry continue to fall every year.

    But this ease of access is not without its dangers. We are all susceptible to different types of investment scams in the investment and stock world, so it is incumbent on us to do our due diligence and protect ourselves and our money from becoming victims of stock fraud and stock scams.

    Is forex trading a scam?

    In the investment world, forex is the wild-west of traditional financial instruments. However, most of the participants are massive institutions like banks that help companies manage cross-currency rates for payroll or buying goods. But it is by far the most accessible and cheapest investment for anyone to make. A futures broker may require a $5,000 minimum investment; whereas many firms in the foreign exchange markets require as little as $1. Day trading stocks in the US requires a $25,000 minimum balance; forex does not require this. 

    The ease of access to significant leverage, and the fact it is open 24 hours a day all make it the most appealing market. But this also attracts many of the bad actors. Some countries regulate forex markets – but not always to the same degree as the US. Many countries have little to no regulation and allow anyone to open a brokerage account in their country. There are many, many bad brokers around the globe – so it’s often best to stick with brokers that are based in the US, EU, or UK.

    The scams that exist in the investment world are many. One of the hardest things for new and aspiring traders to overcome is the vast amount of wrong information, bad actors and blacklisted scam brokers trying to take advantage of you.

    Here are some of the different types of forex trading scams: 

    Broker’s Leverage 

    • The US and EU (more recently) have limits of around 50:1.
    • If you see a broker offering 500:1, 1000:1, or anything beyond a conservative amount, stay away. This is a predatory action.
    • Avoid any broker that is not clear about margin requirements.
    Broker’s undisclosed parameters
    • Avoid requirements for a minimum Stop Loss or Profit Target
    • Avoid requirements where you must have a trade open for a certain amount of time before you can exit.
    • Avoid anyone that doesn’t allow you to create your own risk management profile.
    Broker withdrawal rules
    • You should be able to withdraw your money from your brokerage account at will – but some don’t allow this.
    • Avoid minimum requirements for volume traded before you can withdraw.
    • Avoid anyone that doesn’t disclose their withdrawal rules.
    • If a broker advertises a bonus on deposits, make sure that you can withdraw the bonus within a reasonable amount of time – it should be clear what the requirements are for you to withdraw the bonus.


    Broker’s spread 

    • The spread is the difference between the Bid (buying) and the Ask (selling) – This should be clearly defined or be avoided.
    • Avoid brokers that don’t warn you of regular increases in the spreads, such as at the end of the day or during certain holidays.

    Crypto Scam FAQ

    Scammers and fraudsters exist everywhere, and this is especially true when it comes to Bitcoin. As a brand new asset class, be very careful when it comes to opportunities in this investment space.  

    Bitcoin scammers are just like any other scammer. They will use high-pressure tactics, make you feel like you are missing out on a once in a lifetime opportunity, and show you false promises of riches and results. They will make it all seem too good to be true.

    Absolutely! As with any investment in any speculative market, the loss of value and your money is always at an inherent risk. But that is different from losing money because someone scammed you. Loss of value and market gyrations are one thing
