GDFX Information

　　GDFX was operated by Golden Financial Service Ltd. in New Zealand in 2018. It offers three live account types, but the demo account is hard to register. Besides, its trading platform, MT5, is very popular, which can help it attract more traders. However, it currently has no valid regulations, and its spread is higher than other brokers. So it is costly and unsafe.

Pros and Cons

Is GDFX Legit?

　　Though GDFX claims to be regulated by the UK's Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and New Zealand's Financial Markets Authority (FMA), actually it is not regulated by any financial authorities. Even the FMA has issued a warning against it. Traders should be cautious when choosing a broker.

　　GDFX's license is suspicious. Its license is regulated by Australia, where it is not New Zealand or UK. Additionally, its licensed institution is GDFX FINANCIAL PTY LTD, not GOLDEN FINANCIAL SERVICE LIMITED. Even by the license of Financial Service Providers Register (FSPR), GDFX appears to be revoked.
